The US is grappling with a severe shortage of affordable housing, exacerbated by rising construction costs and restrictive land use regulations. 🌟🏗️  Traditional site-built construction methods struggle to keep pace with demand, hindered by fragmentation and a scarcity of skilled labor. Enter modular housing: a game-changing solution gaining traction in the quest for affordable housing. Fabricated off-site in controlled factory settings, modular homes offer cost savings and streamlined construction processes. But what sets them apart from mobile or manufactured homes? Unlike their counterparts, modular homes are assembled on-site and affixed to permanent foundations, meeting the same standards as traditional builds. As policymakers explore avenues to curb construction costs, modular housing emerges as a promising solution. https://lnkd.in/dXTbQrd8 How do you envision the role of modular housing in addressing the housing affordability crisis? 🤔 Ken Semler Gary Fleisher Greg Otto Andrew Seelye Alan Milne Scott Bailey Mike Gruber Ben Hershey Colby Swanson Brent Musson Tom Hardiman, Jennifer Castenson Dave Clevenger Charles Leahy Chris Lawrence Darin Zaruba Kacy Caviston Ryan E.

Tide’s three mid-rise residential buildings, each with its own character and design, defy conventional ideas of what ‘modular’ homes look like." "But it is volumetric technology that enabled us to create an entire neighbourhood from a vacant expanse of brownfield land in just a few years. It demonstrates the promising potential of volumetric as a tool for boosting the delivery of high-quality new homes at the speed and scale the UK’s housing crisis demands." #housing #construction In Housing Today, chief executive at Tide Construction and Vision Volumetric, Christy Hayes, discusses how volumetric construction is part of the solution for building more homes at a faster rate and with less construction workers. Hayes also delves into the the Greenford Quay development in west London. https://lnkd.in/eUQ-st3t
