      I used to work on barges driving piles. Biggest rule was NEVER get under the load or boom of the crane. I was glad I followed those rules one day the packing on a main lift ram gave out. The boom was laying on the deck of the barge before anyone realized what happened. It's the purpose of the tag lines, these guys obviously are not experienced at what can happen.....

    Sir this is an eye opener! I would like to move a 92 mobile home and place a modular. But it on a single wide road and narrow lit with trees. Guess I need a site engineer to see if possible! This is a great set up! I learned a lot! Thank u! Ya’ll are the best in the business!

    The main advantages of a modular home vs stick built;
    1. The building materials are safe from theft because they're in a factory.
    2. Once the home is delivered and set up you can move in right away.
    3. Arguably better control over construction process.
    Care to add more?

      Speed. Unless you have a massive construction crew with all of their ducks in a row, it's probably the fastest way to get a full size house. They can build these homes in a couple weeks in the factory. Within a week after it's done, it can be installed. on the site. I remember one company saying they typicall can build a double wide in a week.

    Maybe it’s me but right off watching this there was so many safety issues like the 2 guys walking under the load , no hard hats ,( tool or something small could fall off left by you know who) no 4 point tending lines just 2 points ,guy trying to move house by hand ,guy leaves moving house by hand another blue shirt leg and feet under edge corner of house . accidents happened fast and no one should of been near the house until 2 feet from foundation. The trucks should of been position so crane didn’t have to pick load so high ,truck could of drive out from under house after picked up, These guys needs a lot of safety training on doing this job but they will say we done hundreds like this it only take one time . Safety first . good luck people

    Most of you don’t know this, but it would’ve been cheaper for them to build a house from the ground up. All of this that they did cost about the same cost that if they were to build one. Don’t let them fool you. These mobile homes cost $100,000-$200,000. That’s just a home. That isn’t install transportation in the hook up calls. Again it would have been cheaper to build one that’s facts 🤷‍♂️

      @MattKnowsThat 4 роки тому +2

      @@christineloz1686 Radon should be vented with a piped system from under the ground/slab or under the encapsulated floor. Humidity and moisture should be controlled with typical conditioning systems. The proper way to do an enclosed crawlspace is to treat it as conditioned space and supply heating and air conditioning to the space. By adding foundation vents to the outside, you are letting moisture INTO the space. With no space conditioning, the crawlspace will be ground temperature (about 55° depending on your climate zone). When the humidity in the outdoor air meets the cool temps in the crawl, you'll get condensation and water on the surfaces.

      I have looked at 3 doublewide homes...all 3 had a chemical smell..I do know they all use fiber board or particle board which use a formaldehyde laden glue.

    • @MattKnowsThat
      @MattKnowsThat 4 роки тому

      @@christineloz1686 Can I assume that your homes meet standards for low-income or other subsidized housing? If so, HUD has standards for formaldehyde emissions, so I would start by making sure the manufacturer is using properly graded materials. Almost all of the off gassing will occur in less than two years. Faster if high temperatures and humidity are present.
      I'm also not sure about your local code requirements, but ENERGY STAR standards (required for any FHA and HUD projects for new construction) require the home to have whole house automatic mechanical ventilation to meet ASHRAE standards. This can be achieved most commonly by installing a continuous or programmable bath fan or other exhaust fan. Other methods would be the use of an Energy Recovery Ventilator or Heat Recovery Ventilator. Those systems are "balanced" so they will be exhausting air from the house and at the same time, bringing fresh air in. They operate either continuously or on a % run time controller.
      Are you planning to have a ventilation system?
      Many of the Habitat chapters that I've worked with over the years have learned what materials are off gassing and can target them with either custom options that do not off gas, or encapsulating the product with a clear low-VOC finish. For example, the countertops are made of particle board, so in HFH projects, they will put a clear finish on the underside and edges of the countertops.
      Finally, I worked with a builder many years ago on a house that had a very bad chemical smell. So bad that your eyes would burn when entering the house. Turns out the foundation contractor had added an admixture to the concrete to speed up the curing time. The house had a basement and was poured in the winter. As the concrete cured, the calcium chloride was off gassing into the house. CC is also used when the foundation needs to cure faster to get the house set. We see the same problem with "blitz build" projects.
      I hope all that helps. I'm happy to answer more questions if you have them. I've been in the home performance business for almost 15 years and tested thousands of homes. You can reach me at matt@wnchomeperformance dot com
