I am pretty sure only furniture that is fixed and can’t be moved is installed such as the bed, desk and built-ins and everything else such as chairs are added later. What I want to know is how they construct the shaft for the lift, is there a concrete core like in other high rises?

@Patan77xD 4 года назад

I assume that they can do that because they have to already be really careful and precise when moving and placing the units so they don’t compromise the integrity of the structure also if you look at skilled crane operators it’s pretty amazing how gracefully they can move things, probably biggest issue would be at sea with the movement of the ocean but they probably tie down any furnitures that are moveable.

prefab houses are actually already made, just not the time to apply it yet

@hughmungusbungusfungus4618 4 года назад

Prefab/modular homes already exist; they're usually just aimed at the lower end of the market (i.e. mobile homes, trailers, ect.). You can, of course, buy nicer versions of these that go into the 6-figure range and can be delivered to you on a tractor trailer. Furthermore, most residential developments already use a set number of designs that are alternated in a set number of patterns. These haven't gotten to the point that they're manufactured off-site and hauled in but if you go to any recent, large-scale development on the outskirts of any city in the US, you'll see what I mean. These developments usually look nice but lack in quality so they're generally avoided by anyone who has any knowledge about the construction industry or architecture but they do exist. I really doubt we'll see modular construction move any higher up the market than the middle class though. Anyone who makes more than six figures will have the money and preference to buy something designed specifically for them, after all.

There is a 21 story, 500 room Hilton in San Antonio, that utilized modular construction when built in 1968!

@syed2194 4 года назад

It’s definitely not new. There’s an apartment complex in Montreal which was built in 1967 which used prefabricated blocks to form different apartments. I don’t think it’s that revolutionary, it’s just particularly useful in some applications which involve repetitive structures like a block of flats or a hotel. What is unique is the assembly-line like creation of each room, that could really change construction.

„Lowering the environmental impact“ -> „ahhh let’s ship this shit from Poland“

@syed2194 4 года назад

It’s really just to help the bottom line of the company. I doubt it is really any more environmentally friendly than traditional construction, and shipping it from halfway across the world surely doesn’t help. If these rooms were built locally I’m sure it would be a valid claim.

@unknown-hf3jg 4 года назад

The process of making concrete produces a ton of carbon, this is probably what they mean when they say it will cut emissions.

@MatthewStinar 4 года назад

Agreed. In sure they mean environmental impact at the construction site, which counts for something, but shipping is dirty and we shouldn't ignore that.

@mralistair737 4 года назад

ships are significantly more efficient than road transportation, tho. the stat with stone is usually that driving it the last 100miles is more carbon than shipping it half way around the world... plus you are assuming the products going into the traditional building aren't being shipped anyway. But with modular the biggest saving is in lack of wastage, factories are much cleaner with less wastage, damage and more recycling etc.

@wclifton968gameplaystutorials 4 года назад

building in a factory probably consumes less resources than building on site while manufacturing each room in Poland will be more cost efficient than building in the USA while still being of a matched quality which is probably why most European auto makers produce they're cars there such as Ford of Europe and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (used to be just Polski Fiat)

@modulator7861 4 года назад

BRILLIANT idea! But one question: What about load-bearing superstructure (floors/vertical columns, fire stairways, etc) for all those upper floors? Sure those prefab rooms must need some sort of vertical "skeleton" to ensure structural strength/rigidity, no? Or are the stacked units sufficiently rigid enough in themselves not to require additional structure? I especially love that these prefab units can be built/manufactured ANYWHERE - such as areas of the US (or other countries) that are desperately in need of good blue-collar jobs...
