[@aayotechnology]

I'm really interested in this product. Where/how have you used it?

[@MrJramirex]

Drywall is used so much because of how its price compared to similar products. MGO needs to be cheaper or very close to drywall to even have a chance at replacing it. Specially now with building product manufacturers price gouging everyone while having record profits.

I would have loved to see the Hardiebacker display on a joint instead of just a panel. Connections/transitions are always the weak point in an assembly. Factory applied coatings are generally pretty effective.

[@jeffersoneinstein9641]

Yeah I've seen that if water does get past the coating, like on the ends or even the back since it's not coated that stuff may as well be cardboard.

Hardie is shit! I WISH someone would come up with something else to put them out of business. I know, it won't happen but I can still dream. I just did the side of my house with 24"x12" tile siding to replace the asbestos ones and they break if you look at them wrong and making a straight or precise cut will take you more than one tile. I hate them with my entire being.

Mattamy Homes (in Ontario) has a factory which rolls out the whole house. Not custom homes, but you can pick from their models. Being indoors there are no weather delays, it’s dry for the 7 days of construction and rolled out to the foundation.

[@Josh.1234]

thats amazing.. i watched a interview where one of those companies built and rolled a house out. scaffolding, jigs, and all other kinds of things you could build in the shop to speed the process. I am assuming there are some big problems with delivery or it would be much more widespread

[@jeffersoneinstein9641]

Actually it's pretty sad that this whole system would really be a thing in the first place. Where are the craftsmen going? What's wrong with figuring things out on site, where if you know what you're doing there is very little waste and with a little effort you can drill your own holes where they suit you best. The problem is, now you can have a person with no skill and ,the biggie I'm sure, pay them next to nothing to put up a house while the big corporations get all the money. No thank you I say

[@HBSuccess]

It's a total nothingburger. Overpriced proprietary to BFS... definitely NOT the solution to anything. Not trade labor shortages. Not lumber cost.overruns. Not supply chain issues. None of it. It saves minimal material, mimimal trade labor and minimal cycle time. Sure it's an hour or two faster but it takes two months to get tne."kit"created and marked, and it transfers the builder’s margin on the frame back to BFS - the retailer. Good strategy for them… for the builder not so much.

[@kenbrown2808]

@@jeffersoneinstein9641 yep, let's turn carpenters into laborers. but it would still be convenient if every stud was predrilled at 3' ARF, or even if every laminated post was predrilled, because that's where it's a pain to get it drilled square.

[@nickprafke6664]

I am curious on the cost of ready frame. If they are truly optimizing the stud prep it should be cheaper than doing it onsite when all cost are considered. That said services like that usually gouge you making them unattractive.

[@stormagorist6129]

Not sure if "gouge" is the right term, though yes of course they are trying to come in at a price point very close but just under the cost of cutting each piece on site.

[@michaelfranks341]

My house was built in 2019 with ready framed sections that came stacked together and put together as a puzzle. They had the entire framing done in less than a week with the roof on it.

[@seanm3226]

@@stormagorist6129 There is no way they come in “just under” what on site would cost. Maybe someday, but not now. If they were currently cheaper, on site framing would cease tomorrow.

[@KevinSmith-qi5yn]

I think most of the costs are associated with shipping. It can cost $4~$5 per mile for each truckload. If a factory is over 500 miles away, it can be very costly.

[@ShikokuFoodForest]

@@michaelfranks341 Here in Japan, all homes built today are pre-fab ‘Ready Framed’. A whole team of about 8-10 carpenters assemble the entire frame and roof often within a week or so. Very fast. From your experience, how does the cost compare to cutting lumber on site?

[@jasonrowe6302]

Matt, do you not have frame and truss manufactures who make the whole wall/truss section in a factory and deliver it to site? Then all the carpenter/builder does is connect them together and add bracing.

[@VarunArora]

Matt, I am in a pretty big market (Sacramento) and I called BFS/BMS to ask about how to use Ready-Frame a couple of months ago, after getting excited by your last IBS walks. They straight up said they don't work with new builders (not sure if I had talked about ready-frame by that point). Do you know what's going on?

They are talking about the premade house construction. I thought it would be something I would consider.

i literally have bfs up putting in quote now.

[@TheJasonbking]

When I've inquired in the past, the impression I was getting was that Ready Frame wasn't really geared toward custom homes (since it'd just be the one plan), and more towards production builders. If that's not the case, that'd be good to know.

[@Josh.1234]

you should do a review of the process, I am honestly really interested to know the loe for the plan conversion to bfs software, what they charge for that, and what the markup is on the lumber. I know a lot of builders who would never be able to get their stuff together enough ahead of time to be able to generate that plan at BFS so I am guessing that is a reason its not as widely used. Or maybe the overhead is too high for that initial setup of a house design and only large enough builders who will use that design 10 times a year who can make it economical.

[@davidchillton1744]

Manufactured framing is just shifting the waste to the manufacturer there’s still the same amount of waste, you just have to wait for your stuff to ship

[@Josh.1234]

not exactly, they can optimize their board cuts better to have less waste. they can also use longer stock that is not easy to move/ship to the job site. finally since the trimming is all aggregated there, it can be recycled for other building products much easier, as opposed to being thrown in the dumpster with a ton of other types of waste then going to a landfill. Also the builder first source software can help them lay out more dimensions that do not require cuts or cuts that result in two usable pieces. definitely doesn't negate the waste but it lessens it.
