GETAgreen - Green Gaint Modular Potential

The modular industry in the rust belt is crying for well design pre-fab modular structures that are 'smart' built. Green building has been around for decades and is it comes down to just building smart by knowing the rules and limitations of the building products and materials. Plywood is 4x8 so why not make the plan work on a 4x4 grid like Frank Lloyd Wright did back in the 1940's. How about taking the time to adjust a roof pitch of pre-fab trusses so there is no wasted roof sheathing? See smart building has been around for awhile. Building intelligently is easy, keeping it looking simple is the tough part.
