摘要

This report lists a variety of ways home builders and land developers can cut costs. A list of cost-saving techniques is provided for each aspect of home building. For design considerations, the report suggests the use of heating/cooling equipment that is centrally located to minimize duct runs and sizes. It suggests preplanning electrical layout to minimize the number of switches, outlets, and fixtures, and it advises builders to construct back - to - back plumbing fixtures or to cluster fixtures. A total of 30 design suggestions are included. Other cost - saving techniques cover the building's foundation, floors, and exterior walls. For interior partitions, the report suggests the use of partitions and stub walls to simplify closet framing, the construction of partitions parallel to trusses, and the use of single - frame nonload - bearing openings. Other techniques cover the drywall, the roof, painting, plumbing, and electrical work as well as the heating and ventilation systems. For labor costs, the report recommends using a minimum crew size since large crews have more nonproductive time. It suggests having a proper crew balance of skilled, semiskilled, and unskilled workers. Specialists should be developed to encourage higher productivity and the prefabrication of components. The report suggests how to reduce scrap and waste, how to handle material more cost effectively, and how to minimize theft and vandalism. Additional cost cutting measures focus on management techniques, street design, and utilities. Cost - saving measures for water supply systems, sanitary sewer systems, and storm water are addressed. In general, the report suggests avoiding sites with expansive soil, locating dwellings as close to the street as possible to reduce the length of utility services and driveways, minimizing site disturbance to take advantage of natural features, and using the zero lot line concept.
