This book was released on 2017-10-14 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prefabrication of Houses The second part of the book can better be described as reportorial. Here the industry has been treated as nearly as possible on a factual basis, with opinions given only when there is no other way by which a trained observer may record the facts. This material approaches the status of working data, and we hope that it may be used by men wiser than we to correct the conclusions reached in the first part. The third part of the book is a collection of more detailed appendix material, not suitable for inclusion in the text, but likely to prove use ful to many readers. We have emphasized throughout the book the importance of treat ing the prefabrication of houses as a complete pattern of operations of which management, design, procurement, production, and marketing are the major subdivisions. Indeed, the material in the second part is so organized that the reader will have to look under each of these subdivisions in order to gather all the information on any one com pany. To have organized the material by companies, while maintain ing this emphasis, would have meant endless repetition and a doubling of the bulk of the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Houses and How to Build Them An inherent desire seems to be born in every one to have a home of one's own, - to posses a little place, however small, - to be one's own lord and master. This desire is natural. It betokens a healthy mind, a worthy ambition, - a lofty ideal. There are many reasons why it is not to one's best interests to rent. Recall the most responsible men and women of any town and you will find they are the property owners. The man who does not own his home is looked upon by others as an underling or weakling. He is regarded in the eyes of his neighbors as lacking in initiative, in the eyes of his family he is considered unfortunate, in his own mind he realizes that he has never quite achieved success. Look about and see the men on small salaries who own their homes. They have toiled no harder than others, but rigid economy has made it possible to squeeze out a few dollars a month to apply to their house contract, and in after years they have something to show for the money expended. Why should we help to support our landlord? If a small amount of capital invested each month by those who have not the ready cash to pay for a house and lot will in the end provide a home, why not use these sums in that way instead of handling them to the landlord, enriching him at our own expense?

Download or read book Prefab Architecture written by Ryan E. Smith and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-06-03 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Prefab Architecture . . . is beyond theory, and beyond most of what we think we know about pods, containers, mods, and joints. This book is more than 'Prefabrication 101.' It is the Joy of Cooking writ large for the architecture and construction industries." From the Foreword by James Timberlake, FAIA THE DEFINITIVE REFERENCE ON PREFAB ARCHITECTURE FOR ARCHITECTS AND CONSTRUCTION PROFESSIONALS Written for architects and related design and construction professionals, Prefab Architecture is a guide to off-site construction, presenting the opportunities and challenges associated with designing and building with components, panels, and modules. It presents the drawbacks of building in situ (on-site) and demonstrates why prefabrication is the smarter choice for better integration of products and processes, more efficient delivery, and realizing more value in project life cycles. In addition, Prefab Architecture provides: A selected history of prefabrication from the Industrial Revolution to current computer numerical control, and a theory of production from integrated processes to lean manufacturing Coverage on the tradeoffs of off-site fabrication including scope, schedule, and cost with the associated principles of labor, risk, and quality Up-to-date products featuring examples of prefabricated structure, enclosure, service, and nterior building systems Documentation on the constraints and execution of manufacturing, factory production, transportation, and assembly Dozens of recent examples of prefab projects by contemporary architects and fabricators including KieranTimberlake, SHoP Architects, Office dA, Michelle Kaufmann, and many others In Prefab Architecture, the fresh approaches toward creating buildings that accurately convey ature and expanded green building methodologies make this book an important voice for adopting change in a construction industry entrenched in traditions of the past.
