   Faster construction than stick-built house. Less lumber required. Insulate acoustically. Impermeable to moisture. Can truck prefabricated panels to construction site and assemble on site. Create shell of solid insulation around house, while reducing bypasses common with stick-frame construction. The result is an inherently energy-efficient house.
