On May 28 and 29 a group of Princeton students built an Arial Home on the University campus. The home is a precurser to a factory being built in Ghana, Africa. The home will be in place for two years. Engineering students will run various tests on the home as well as other R&D projects.
If you are considering modular or prefab home, building with recycled shipping containers is worth taking a look at.
Good resource is the Residential Shipping Container Primer website. A SHOWCASE OF SHIPPING CONTAINER HOMES AND BUILDINGDS, AND A DO IT YOURSELF (DIY) REFERENCE FOR CONVERTING RECYCLED INTERMODAL CARGO SHIPPING CONTAINERS INTO BUILDINGS AND ARCHITECTURE.
Lots of great example buildings, details, facts, and links to other articles...
