AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is a module that combines all services needed for building a house. This module is prefabricated and can be easily transported to the construction site. This invention is light and rigid, making it easy to transport and install. No finishes are vulnerable to damage during shipment. Overall, this invention aims to provide a more efficient and easy-to-use solution for building houses.

Problems solved by technology

But such construction does not allow for adaptability and installation of new technology.
Since the home's infrastructure is so integrated into the superstructure, it is nearly impossible to simply rearrange spaces without also reconfiguring the main systems of the house as well.
Another problem with typical home construction is that it takes a long time.
Usually the foundation is poured quickly and the framing is built very fast but after that it takes a long time to for all the subcontractors to install the electrical, plumbing, etc.
However, none of these inventions allow a house to be built without waiting for installation of services and none of these inventions allow for ease of maintenance or avoidance of damage during remodeling and renovations.

Abstract

A prefabricated core for a building with all services already built in. The core serves as: 1. the housing for all the home's mechanical, plumbing and electrical sources, and 2. a major structural support, providing three shear walls to the structure. This invention allows access to all of the services thus allowing for ease of maintenance and avoidance of collateral damage during renovations and remodeling.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 748,751, filed Mar. 29, 2010, the entire specification, drawings and claims of which are incorporated in this application by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION(1) Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to the field of building construction and more particularly to the field of prefabricated building construction.(2) Description of the Related Art[0003]Currently, houses are built in a standard sequence. The following is a typical sequence.[0004]Grading and site preparation[0005]Construction of foundation. Typically premixed concrete is poured or pumped into molds constructed on the site.[0006]Erection of framing on the foundation. Wood and steel are usually used for framing members. Openings are left in the framing for placement of doors and windows.[0007]Installation of windows and doors.[0008]Construction of roofing on top of the frami...
