Why Home Builders Should Embrace Manufactured Trusses and Panels

Multi-Family and Single Family builders, particularly those in cutting-edge markets, have adopted manufactured roof trusses and floor trusses, as well as manufactured wall panels, as part of their building processes. Those builders have reaped the benefits in terms of saving time and money. It won’t be long before homebuilders are embracing this trend as well. If you’re unsure of the benefits of these manufactured components, here’s why you should embrace manufactured trusses and panels:

Be on the Bleeding Edge

Manufactured components haven’t had widespread adoption in the home building sector—yet. If you want to be ahead of the curve (and saving tons of money and time, unlike your competitors), now is the time to find out how you can take advantage of prefabricated panels and trusses.

Created in a Controlled Environment

Manufactured trusses and panels are created in a factory, meaning they are free of the damaging effects of weather. Additionally, it means that trusses can be made night or day, first shift or third, unlike in residential construction, where work at night will upset the neighbors and violate noise ordinances.

Less Time Spent Assembling On-Site

Manufactured components are delivered to your site and easily installed without specialized labor (unlike building roof trusses on-site, which is a skilled job). The less time spent on the job site, the less your labor costs will be and the quicker job turnaround time will be.

Competitive Advantage

This is just simple math, but if you’re benefiting from reduced labor costs, quicker turnaround times, and components created in a controlled environment that will sustain little wear and damage, you’re going to have an advantage over your competitors. You’ll be able to do jobs quicker and take on more jobs, and that means you’ll make more money and have more satisfied customers.
