I was born and raised in Ukraine and when I came to US I was blown away by level of technology and overall advanced building techniques, after watching how Swiss do it makes US seem lagging behind.
That's a standard in the whole EU. We build things to last, with dedication, love & precision. :) Ukraine is on it's way to be a part of the EU & we are going to rebuild at as best we can, after we send Putin to hell.
All the wood its from Romania and Ukrain... Germany just do expedition... Because... UE. All hard work its make in Hungary, Romania, Polish, Ukrain. And the same peoples work in west europe and nord europe.
There are companies in the US that produce similar building components in the US. Check out Unity Homes in New Hampshire for one example. They have videos here on RUclips.
Just commenting that I very much appreciate the supurb content you guys put out. I'm from switzerland and work in a smaller timber company as engineer. We build the walls and roof elements almost the same as they do, however the automation in this company is next level. Again thanks so much for these educational videos.
The prefabricated timber construction and the type of production is very often found among prefabricated house builders in northern Europe. Even small companies can design and manufacture the highest quality houses with relatively few staff through the use of CNC-controlled machines and modern production lines. It is fantastic to see how the complete sanitary and electrical installations can be installed quickly and easily later on the building site, because everything has been perfectly prepared at the factory. In addition, these houses are optimally insulated and highly energy-efficient.
That's a very impressive way to assemble a panelized structure. I also like the large number of solar panels used on the Renggli facility and that the employees helped install the cedar shakes on the exterior.
I work in the construction planning industry and I have already done some projects and I think my work is already very good. But when I saw this video, I went on research and found out that I live in an apartment complex of them and everything makes sense. The quality here is incredibly good and the climate is great.
This is a really awesome factory. I was impressed by the size of the timbers in the walls, almost 2,5 times the thickness of a stud wall in an American built home, and with the thickness of the insulating envelope, you could heat this house with a candle. It's the future the European building industry is going to, even in those countries like for instance The Netherlands I live in, which traditionally build mostly in brick and concrete. Those timber houses made in a factory are far more sustainable and easy to make energy neutral (very important with the natural gas crisis we are in). The construction out of engineered timber in a controlled environment with CNC machines guarantees a very consistent product and isn't dependent on weather conditions, only for the erection on site a few dry days are needed (except for the ground work and concrete foundations of course), this is a huge pro in places where it rains a lot. Even dry building after erections is kept to a minimum as a lot is pre-installed like all of the conduit. The construction method would be very suitable for the US too, as homes can be easily be redesigned to meet climatic demands. After all these houses will surpass most states building codes in the US and could perform better in extreme weather conditions like severe frost, heat and high winds.
When I had my minimal enegry house designed and built 20 years ago, the design envelope was to install a heat and cooling pump as well as solar panels and use highly inulating windows and wall technologies to lower the total heating and central cooling cost of the building to 400 USD p.a. for the entire house at 3.5 stories and 330m2 of living area. Since then - and with inflation - I'm now actually at about 600 USD p.a. Oh, and the heating cost includes the (also insulated) outdoor pool. Talk about quality build and insulation!
Nick, this was a great tour! Thanks so much. A link to their website and a glimpse of one of their finished projects would have been a welcome addition.
One good thing for you as a Boston company is that many people in Boston already work for Swiss Pharmaceutical companies. I visited Switzerland quite often when I worked for Novartis and am familiar with the buildings. It should make this an easy sell for you guys here, especially in the western burbs.
I thought we here in the states were doing very well with building techniques. This just goes to show we have years to go. Awesome swiss build series. Maybe you made a connection to bring some of these companies to the states?
I had a officer in the german army. The guy moved to the US with his Wife, former US Army. He lived somewere in the Tornado Alley and two years later his small town was wrecked by a twister, he never saw one live, and it was a SHOCK for him. His neighbors build up like before, Wood frame houses. My Fried got up, sad "Fuck that" and he build a house from scratch the "German Way"....like a F++king bunker. 12-16 Inch walls, solid reinforces concrete. He imported windows from germany, had old army buddys over on holidays to help him with the wiring, put 10k allone in diamond plate that could be bolted to the windows and he put shindles to the outside to "blend it into the neighborhood.Everyone around thought he was an idiot for putting 120k in a house the next storm would push over......it is still standing as far as i know.
this is basically a "factory built building" in progress... and the interesting thing is, all those machines not just make things faster and more accurate but even safer for the workers... and they are working without being out in the elements during the whole manufacturing process... the only part where weather plays a role is during final assembly on site... but at that time most of the things are done so even a bit of rain or snow would not damage the final building I love these "house-factories" and especially all the technical (partially automated) solutions seen over here a lot in Europe Oh and by the way, all those "built in" lifting straps are "single use only" and have to be cut to be discarded later on... you are not supposed to reuse them... and they are specially produced to this purpose (it actually should say it on the orange tags) and they are coded by colour so you can identify which load limit you are having there.
Great job Nick. Impressive operation. I would like to get more information about the construction tables, programming system, etc. This is for a new operation I'm launching in Bogota, Colombia for smaller homes. The cost of living is very low compared to the US or Europe. Any thing you can share would be appreciated.
You’ll know for sure at the end of the day and want to lift your arms. Pressurized air, always juice available. Using it on site above your head is really heavy…😁
Have watched a lot of videos on American house building. Am often shocked at the lack of quality in the final finish. One sheet gypsum board interior walls instead of doubling them up for strength. Interior doors with huge gaps all round including the main house door. Very simple wood-frame walls which are often so thin that sound travels through from a neighboring room very easily. European build quality is much more solid and significant. US prices are incredibly expensive for the quality you get at the end. Superficially lovely, but only on the surface.
Reason why so many houses get wiped away by tornado's... not saying every 'standard' European house would withstand it, but in Northern Europe (Benelux, Germany, Switzerland), the proportion of 'serious' houses is significantly higher than anywhere else...
13:18 yes the nail gun is faster, but the point is : it doesnt matter if you secure the foil with screws or a nail, if it fails its the foil, it doesnt matter if it´s hold by a nail or a srcew, no matter how strong the screw is and thats why the connections in the wood are made with screws, while the naild just compress the area around it to hold it in the screw digs into it and binding it, therefore its more secure und higher quality
They are essentially giant die walls, as we call them in architectural millwork. Die walls are built virtually the same way, plywood ribs cut in a CNC, and sheathing on both sides from sheet goods.
Now many would point out that houses are much more expensive in Switzerland so it would never work in the USA. Well thats partially true. Having worked a job similar to architect for a few years (though i dont anymore) i can tell you why houses are so expensive here. Its the ground. You buy the land to build the house or buy the land with the house. Space in Switzerland is much more limited than in the USA which makes them incredibly high priced. The swiss house price composition is 1st ground 2nd Worker wages 3rd Material. If you build a house for 1.5 million (small one family house about 12×12×8) you will pay about 800'000 to 1milion for the Ground and about 500'000 to 700'000 for the house. From the cost of the house about 200'000 to 300'000 will be material cost and around 300'000 to 400'000 will be worker wages (profits are included in this number). If you buy an old house you can get much more for 1.5 million because you almost only pay the ground. Most people here buy a house which is old. They are sturdy and last a long time. I belive that even In the USA such a house could be built for 600'000 or lees. The land prices are lower, the wages are lower and you don't have cellars (one of the most expensive parts of a house).
I'm looking at this video and wondering where all the people are. Do they usually operate with so few workers on the floor, or did you come in while they were at lunch?
I'm always surprised we don't do more of this here in the US. I'm even more surprised the whole process hasn't been automated yet where the studs are layed out by robot and nailed by robot, etc
Over-automation kills the process, they are 20 and can build houses in a single week, it's still craftmanship and the way they do it is impecable and i'm not sure having more robots could help.
In the end, a factory is also there to provide good jobs for the community. A robot needs to be a whole lot better or cheaper before you put someone out of his job.
The tours are great, but the camerawork needs, well, work! The sound could also be clearer with mics that isolate background noise better. Thanks for putting this together.
Gutex, Celit and other brands are damp(vapor)open sheeting for the outside of walls. Stiffness of the walls is mostly on the inside using OSB or MPX with tape and/or foils to make it airtight. Outside is windtight. Outside sheeting is also insulation to break heat bridges of wooden struts, with in between breathing insulation.
@@paulbrouyere1735 I am familiar with that part I just didn’t see any wood being used on the interior sheathing and was wondering how they achieved their shear strength
@@kevinlynch3588 Although I haven’t used that system before I know there is also a system where they first build a skeleton and fill in the walls afterwards.
Living in the UK I'm gobsmacked. The EU is so far ahead of the UK. Both in advanced manufacturing but also the planning regulations. Its very hard to build with wood in the UK.
@@Mrferiebueb79 The reference to the EU was a generic Europe wide stance. I was thinking of Germany, Austria, Denmark. I and I'm surprised you were not aware it had nothing to do with an EU policy.
@@logik100.0 Two ways to read this, either the UK is using the term ‘EU’ to refer to the whole of Europe (west of Russia/Ukraine) but somehow don’t see themselves as part of Europe. Or they consider Switzerland to be more closely aligned with the European Union than themselves, despite having been part of the EU for almost half a century until effectively less than two years ago (end of the transition period).
This type of building process and the facility itself really deserve a documentary style video. This seem shot with more of a "I just walked in off the street and isn't this place cool?!!" or "I need to make another video for RUclips so I can rake in more ad money" kind of vibe.
Its so funny how most (not all) Americans are so arrogant about what they think they could do and they always think they are the best in everything. Even if you say them how we Swiss are miles ahead, they don't believe it with their tiny ego lol. Good video!
I dont know if you're aware, but Switzerland does NOT have any laws mandating fire alarms in buildings - public or private. It was a concious decision eons ago by the national and cantonal real estate insurers that made model calculations and determined that fire alarms would NOT improve safety, but would actually cost more than the damages they prevent. And if you compare national real estate fire statistics between Switzerland and other countries, they are actually right. So nobody in Switzerland would ever even consider putting in fire alarms. They are completely unnnecessary in Switzerland, despite many houses being made of wood and composits.
Fire prevention, fire fighting as well as fire insurance is ruled by cantonal laws. So no need for federal laws. There are plenty of rules for business buildings, mainly factories handling flammable products. Private buildings are subject mainly to preventive measures, but not fire and smoke detectors everywhere The last company I worked for before retirement had plenty of alarm systems also for fire, even tests with local firefighters, checking intervention plans and allowing firefighters to become familiar with the whole factory building. And one evening (working late on IT-projects) we even had firefighter squad at the door - false alarm that was not immediately cancelled by plant maintenance staff. For what I was told, a second false fire alarm in a year would have been charged to the company.
Most companies have a long way to go to get even close to this, most won't come close in next 10 years even and where will the likes of this company be then, sadly too much focus and energy is solely on one section of industry like cars with the delusional that it's making a difference
You can DREAM that this will happen in the US... I'm wanting to dance in the Bollshoy Ballet as I'm only 65. !!!...can you see that place ran by crack and phentanol addicts 🤣
Highly impressive building techniques. However, the presentation is so disjointed and off the cuff it is difficult to understand how the work is actually done. Suggestion, follow, say a wall, being built from raw materials through each step. Plus, script what you are going to say. You jump around talking about factors that excite you but the narrative ends up being very amateurish. I'm sure you can do better. That being said, thank you so much for introducing me to these fantastic methodologies and tools.
jr were gonna operate on your rain this week, its flash card week..... huh whars flash cards? well flash a card to u with numbers on it, u figire out the problem... ok flash me then
Cedar shingles are a bad choice for exterior cladding. Should be a non-combustible material. Architectural design is limited with this type of manufacturing and the end cost of the buildings is not much different. Of all the methods tried for combustible construction, you still can't beat stick framed on site method because of the flexibility of design and the complexibility of all the other trades components that have to fit.
There are houses with roofs made of these shingles that are more than 200 years old. As long as you take care for constructive wood protection and you produce the the traditional way, wich is splitting, not sawing, these shingles will last very long.
Really nice house factory, similar to the ones we have in Sweden. Both climate and wages mean that we have to build energy and cost-effectively. check out e.g. "Älvsbyhus house factory" or "Bo Klok house factory" on RUclips

And one evening (working late on IT-projects) we even had firefighter squad at the door - false alarm that was not immediately cancelled by plant maintenance staff. For what I was told, a second false fire alarm in a year would have been charged to the company.
Most companies have a long way to go to get even close to this, most won't come close in next 10 years even and where will the likes of this company be then, sadly too much focus and energy is solely on one section of industry like cars with the delusional that it's making a difference
for people wondering, this is kinda the standard european manufacturing process for bigger companies
jr u wont have to worry bouth them on your turf anymore...

Highly impressive building techniques. However, the presentation is so disjointed and off the cuff it is difficult to understand how the work is actually done. Suggestion, follow, say a wall, being built from raw materials through each step. Plus, script what you are going to say. You jump around talking about factors that excite you but the narrative ends up being very amateurish. I'm sure you can do better. That being said, thank you so much for introducing me to these fantastic methodologies and tools.
idk what im gonna do with my tax return this ur, might go on a speed boat probally

Cedar shingles are a bad choice for exterior cladding.
Should be a non-combustible material.
Architectural design is limited with this type of manufacturing and the end cost of the buildings is not much different.
Of all the methods tried for combustible construction, you still can't beat stick framed on site method because of the flexibility of design and the complexibility of all the other trades components that have to fit.
There are houses with roofs made of these shingles that are more than 200 years old. As long as you take care for constructive wood protection and you produce the the traditional way, wich is splitting, not sawing, these shingles will last very long.
Not another clueless American :D
Thoma Holz GmbH from Austria is much better and more innovative.
Really nice house factory, similar to the ones we have in Sweden.
Both climate and wages mean that we have to build energy and cost-effectively.
check out e.g. "Älvsbyhus house factory" or "Bo Klok house factory" on RUclips
I'm surprise that the workers do not have to wear safety glasses.
