Method of production of standard size dwellings

A method for constructing standard size dwellings substantially in their entirety in a manufacturing facility, said manufacturing facility being located proximate a location at which standard size dwellings produced in said manufacturing facility are to be sited after exiting said manufacturing facility, comprising the steps of:

• constructing, in said manufacturing facility, predetermined subassemblies for said standard size dwelling in at least two subassembly production lines, each of said predetermined subassemblies comprising a structural section of said standard size dwelling, from the class of structural sections including:
• walls, floors, roof, foundation base frame;
• assembling in a dwelling assembly alley located substantially proximate to said at least two subassembly production lines, a partially assembled standard size dwelling therein;
• operating hoisting elements in said at least two subassembly production lines for transporting said constructed predetermined subassemblies from said at least two subassembly production lines to said dwelling assembly alley to install said constructed predetermined subassemblies into a partially assembled standard size dwelling located therein, which partially assembled standard size dwelling is non-roadable by having length and width dimensions, with the smaller of said length and width dimensions being greater than 14 feet and being greater than one story in height;
• and
• transporting in said dwelling assembly alley said partially assembled standard size dwelling while said standard size dwelling is assembled from said predetermined subassemblies by respectively incorporating said predetermined subassemblies into said partially assembled standard size dwelling using said hoisting elements when said partially assembled standard size dwelling is positioned in said assembly alley opposite a corresponding one of said plurality of subassembly production lines until said partially assembled standard size dwelling is assembled substantially in its entirety.

A method for constructing standard size dwellings substantially in their entirety at a manufacturing facility, said manufacturing facility being located proximate a location at which standard size dwellings produced by said manufacturing facility are to be sited, comprising the steps of:

• constructing, in a foundation assembly production line, an integral foundation base frame that supports load bearing walls of said standard size dwelling;
• constructing, in at least two subassembly production lines, predetermined subassemblies for said standard size dwelling, each of said predetermined subassemblies comprising a structural section of said standard size dwelling, from the class of structural sections including:
• walls, floors, roof;
• assembling, in a dwelling assembly alley located substantially proximate to said at least two subassembly production lines, a partially assembled standard size dwelling therein using said predetermined subassemblies, which are incorporated into said partially assembled standard sized dwelling until said partially assembled standard size dwelling is assembled substantially in its entirety;
• and
• operating hoisting elements in each of said at least two subassembly production lines for transporting said constructed predetermined subassemblies to said dwelling assembly alley for incorporation into said partially assembled standard size dwelling being assembled therein, with said hoisting elements transporting at least a subset of load bearing ones of said predetermined subassemblies for direct connection to said integral foundation base frame.
