FAQ

The prefab is done by the owner builder. Outside of build time optimization, 4 reasons are: 1.  lowest possible cost, 2. simplest design possible, 3 portability, and 4 parallel build ability. 

1. Achieved by using common, off-the-shelf parts such as 2x6 lumber and wood panels.
2. By using repeating modules, complexity and thus skill requirement is reduced, availing the build method to more people.
3. If screws are used, structure can be portable. Since it's on helical pier foundations, even the piers can be unscrewed.
4. A predefined parametric structure allows a large number of teams to build in parallel. This means that if you have a large team, all of them could work together on making the panels, so all the panels can be build by a team in a single day - and even shorter - limited only by the size of the workspace and the number of people.
