This is a wood framing technology, Originally from Japan, The Effort That I Led To The Transfer to a small group of USA.Essentially untrained People Can erect Entire Year house frame in 1-3 days, DEPENDING On The Size of the structure.
The System is 100% Precut by CAD / CAM - See That process here: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=NY6ujuD...Uses engineered wood and wastewood (glulams, LSL) and est très resource and Cdn energy efficient.It aussi Be Much More Energy Efficient Than stick framing using innovative insulated panels similar to SIPs.
The framing costs: With Full Custom Precut are about double of That pile of 2x6's and nails - Built in a couple of days, Without Any skilled Labor means specified in the final cost Erected Is About 20-30% Less than stick framing.
For Those Who Might Be Worried About Stability, Japan has 3 seismic occurrences per day and this system meets all japanese earthquake and typhoon standards.
Umm sorry kid but magnets aren't going to do shit, it still requires lots of energy to get them to work...

Because homes are priced in the hundreds of thousands, even building it with technology will not cause much "notice" to the price of the house. It is like adding $5,000 to $100,000.

I will tell you from experience, Japanese houses are absolutely horrible. Clausterphobic sized rooms, no natural lighting, broiling in the summer and freezing in the winter. Don't be fooled by the technology.
