Appropriate Fit

Using Today’s

Technologies

to

Overcome Common

Building Problems

www.CBS-Homes.com

Current Conditions

• Labor intensive systems– High cost skill trades, shortage of trained workers, poor workmanship,

inadequate supervision, inconsistent quality, energy inefficient, unmet

current needs, growing housing deficits - worldwide

• Building methods unchanged – Escalating environmental damage, severe raw material cost cycles,

intermittent shortages, recurring disaster damage – resistance to change

• Constant pressure to build fast and cheap– Overlooks innovation, relies on cheapest materials

– Little industry effort to improve construction methods

– No concern for long term costs of building ownership

Traditional Complacency Maintains status quo

“I only do what I know” mentalitywww.CBS-Homes.com

Implication - “No-changes in Sight”

• Labor Intensive – Old Methods – Low Cost Materials

– Means

• No immediate universal fix of deficits

– Implications

• No evolving large scale solution “We have always done it this

way”

– Consequences

• A continuing series of band aid solutions rising deficits & no

solutions

– Until the CBS Egis® Home

• Automated Assembly with Construction Optimized Composites
