Benefits of BuildFast
BuildFast panels have a lot of advantages over traditional construction techniques:
BuildFast structures are very fast to build
- 2-3 people can build the home in less than one week
Completed BuildFast structures are structurally sound
- Earthquake resistant
- Typhoon resistant
- Fireproof
- Termite, rodent, rot and mold resistant.
- Well insulated – suitable for harsh winter climates
- Strong enough to withstand significant snow on roof
- Strong enough to absorb bullets
BuildFast requires much less skilled labor
- For areas not served by running water, sewage and electricity, houses can be self-installed anywhere with minimal training – skilled workers are not necessary
- For areas with water, sewage, & electricity, houses need a basic electrician and plumber to complete
- No heavy equipment is needed
- Panels can be hand carried if necessary – they weigh only 30 lbs/piece
- No power tools are needed
BuildFast is environmentally sound
- Highly insulated structure with few air gaps requires significantly less energy to heat or cool than traditional construction.
- Emergency shelter is converted into permanent structure – no waste in materials or shipping
- No forestry products required.
