No Holiday for Robots Building Home Sections

New Jersey…Nov 22… While America rests and eats plenty of turnkey, a group of robots are busily building sections of walls to rebuild homes destroyed by Superstorm Sandy, No pipe dream, the "QUIKIEHOME MAKER" is a portable factory that combines "aromatic copolymer and aggregate" to produce a complete 1500 sq,ft, 3 bedroom 2 bath home in 14 days after removing the destroyed home from the foundation.

A science "Think Tank" has been developing the idea since Hurricane "Ike" smashed Texas housing and the demonstration model they built was the only thing left standing for miles. A FEMA consultant wrote a report that applauded the concept.

Volunteers fanned out in New Jersey today to hand out flyers to homeowners facing life in FEMA trailers and a long rebuilding task suggesting they lobby elected officials to schedule a demonstration of the technology there.

Although pre-made panel construction has been used in Europe for a decade, the concept of building sections at the site of a disaster would enable immediate housing at a very low cost compared to "stick built" which requires skilled labor and plenty of building materials. Linking the "QUIKIE HOME MAKER" system to a "volumetric" supply and producing the "QH" sections which feature an insulated core surrounded by steel supports and mesh produces sections to make 5 homes while the first one is being assembled. The "QUIKIEHOME" cost about $50,000 which makes it far less expensive for disaster relief agencies and insurance firms to funds and puts distressed homeowners back into permanent housing faster. An added advantage-homeowners can take part in the process as part of unskilled labor which pays them right away to buy supplies.

According to a report by a Belgium firm *Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Russia, Eastern Europe, Balkans) continue as a major user of lightweight “sandwich panels” over the past decade.  India has had substantial increases in use since 2006. The U.S. development of the “QH” system allows the robotics to produce a core that provides extreme thermal insulation coupled to an automatically welded series of steel supports and steel mesh. This provides a rapid and economic construction speed.

The Garza family living in the Texas prototype confirmed that the core method results in vastly lower HAVAC costs. “We moved from a 750 foot home where we were paying over $130 monthly to this one and now pay about $70 for a home twice the size”.
