Prefabricated house

Prefabricated house

Prefabricated house

(OP)
The 13th of January, in El Salvador there was a earthquake. A lot of house was destroyed. Actually, we need build a similar quantity of house and I'm investigate system of concrete prefabricated house. If anybody knows about system, please send me the web site about this. The system would be fast and economical. Thanks a lot.

RE: Prefabricated house

Try tilt-up construction. More info can be checked on

http://www.tilt-up.org/

I have some experience in this system. It can be very economical (cost and time) depending on the quantity of the same type.

RE: Prefabricated house

Also try, www.pci.org

The site even has a list of all precasters in the US.  You can do a search to find a precaster that does housing.  Although if you are building in El Salvador I'm not sure who would deliver there.
