不确定性和风险导致美国房屋建筑商不愿采用新的建筑技术。本文探讨了一种创新的，但未充分利用的建筑技术，结构隔热板（SIP），及其对住宅建设过程的影响。本文介绍了两个人类家园的建设，一个SIP和一个传统的木结构并排的案例研究的结果。虽然这项研究的重点是劳动生产率和周期时间在框架，其他关键的施工性能指标进行评估，包括工人的安全，质量/工艺，材料浪费，工人的技能水平和设备要求。调查结果表明，SIP节省了约三分之二的现场框架劳动力的墙壁和屋顶，与周期时间节省类似的幅度。未观察到对其他施工性能指标的显著影响，但是，面板的尺寸确实需要升降车和施工起重机。虽然结论受到案例研究范围的限制，但作者认为，使用SIP构建可以非常有效。该文件确定了建筑商和SIP制造商需要采取的关键行动，以最大限度地提高潜在的利益。
Uncertainty and risk have contributed to the reluctance of U.S. homebuilders to embrace new construction technologies. This paper explores one innovative, but underutilized building technology, structural insulated panels (SIPs), and its impact on the residential construction process. The paper presents findings from a side-by-side case study of the construction of two Habitat for Humanity homes, one SIP and one conventional wood-framing. Although the study focuses on labor productivity and cycle time during framing, other key construction performance metrics are assessed including worker safety, quality/workmanship, material waste, worker skill levels, and equipment requirements. Findings indicate that SIPs saved about two-thirds of the site framing labor for walls and roofs, with cycle time savings of similar magnitude. No significant impacts on other construction performance metrics were observed, however, size of the panels did require a lift truck and construction crane. While conclusions are limited by the scope of the case study, the writers believe that building with SIPs can be very efficient. The paper identifies key actions required of builders and SIP manufacturers to maximize potential benefits.
