Today s panelized home building systems retain the best aspects of stick frame construction. The typical crew has the skills to build walls from plans and they re compensated accordingly while they typically don t have the skills to hand frame the complex roofs of today s homes and again are compensated accordingly. They are easy to install and can be engineered for a variety of wall applications and heights.

Panelization is the prefabrication of exterior or interior wall assemblies manufactured in a controlled environment using conventional building components. Wall panels improve efficiency reduce waste and increase structural integrity. Wall panels prefabricated wall panels provide an excellent alternative to traditional stick framing. Generally approximately 50 of the walls in a building will be load bearing metal stud panels with the other 50 being non bearing stick built metal stud partitions.

The only difference between them is the house on the left was stick framed on site while the house on the right was framed using floor trusses wall panels and roof trusses. A key ingredient in the success of the infinity structural system is the pre panelized load bearing metal stud walls. Panelized wall systems are ideal for minimizing workforce requirements reducing workforce overheads or when larger crews are not available. Substantially less time is required to assemble prefabricated construction projects minimizing all those extra costs associated with site management maintenance and insurance.
