Building America

The Building America project brings together all segments of the housing industry (designers, builders, developers, financial institutions, material suppliers, and equipment manufacturers). These industry groups have traditionally worked independently of one another, slowing development and adoption of new technologies. By working together using a systems engineering approach, decisions previously made independently can quickly be made with consideration for the entire design, manufacturing, and construction process, thereby increasing quality and performance without increasing cost.
