Prefabricated construction<\/strong><\/p>\n","answer":"

Prefabricated homes use the same method for conventional stick framing, but they are built off-site, and then transported and assembled on-site. They can be built more efficiently and still retain their value.

Modular construction<\/strong><\/p>\n","answer":"

Modular homes are similar to prefabricated homes; they are built off-site, and then transported and assembled on-site. However, modular constructions have sections that are more likely to be stacked and are squared off into repeated sections called modules. They can also be built efficiently.<\/p>\n\n

Light gauge steel<\/strong><\/p>\n","answer":"

The light gauge steel method is similar to traditional stick framing, but each component is instead made out of metal. The advantages are the lack of rotting, shrinking or termite damage. Steel lasts longer and reduces the risk of drywall cracks, warping or shrinking.<\/p>\n\n

Concrete<\/strong><\/p>\n","answer":"

While concrete can be used for more parts of the build, it is more popular to be used in the foundations of homes and walls. Some concrete homes use either wood or steel for the framing before the concrete forms are applied.<\/p>\n\n
