Title: Wall sections framed at home and moved to the build site
Post by: Mark.alan65 on June 21, 2016, 08:00:47 PM

Hey everyone,

I am starting to plan our build while looking for land. The one thing that has come up is the amount of time at the build site. The weekends would not be an issue, but during the week it could be difficult to get up to the site. So I was wondering if anyone had built wall sections at home and transported them to the build site? This would allow me to speed up the construction process. We are looking at doing a 20x36 1.5 story with a loft.

Thanks,

Mark

I do believe several here have taken this approach.
