True modular homes
A true modular home can be developed from existing architectural plans or from custom architectural plans generated by an architect. Modular home manufacturers use computer generated designs to meet all national, state, and local building standards.
Framing for Mobile Homes is the same as for a traditional home except that true modular homes use 20 to 30 percent more material to insure a safe trip to the site. Essentially a true modular home is over engineered to withstand the transportation process. This is also true for on-frame modular homes and to a lesser degree HUD-code homes. True modular homes are constructed in a climate-controlled environment using the same high quality materials used in traditionally built homes.
