Modules are trucked to site on low-boy trailers and are installed by crane. Modules typically weigh from 15,000 lbs to 55,000 lbs, each. Under normal circumstances, a professional set crew can install from 4 to 6 modules a day. (A typical 3,000 sq. ft. house will be comprised of from 4 to 6 modules.) Once the modules are installed on foundation, the set crew will be on site another 2 to 5 days finishing the connections to the foundation and “buttoning-up” the modules to the weather. With our hypothetical 3,000 sq. ft. house, the finish work on site should be about 6 to 10 weeks after the modules are installed on foundation.
