Modular Aluminum Housing Systems 
 

Modular Aluminum Housing Systems

  • MHS Building Systems utilizes a patented modular aluminum framing system for residential and commercial construction. This system offers significant advantages over traditional wood framing, including lightweight design, recyclability, design flexibility, and easy disassembly and reassembly. The system employs a post-and-beam structure with bolted connections, allowing for simple, strong, and adaptable buildings. MHS provides licensing and training to fabricators and builders globally, promoting widespread adoption of its innovative and sustainable construction method.  


Superiority of Post-and-Beam Framing for Sustainable Light Building Design

 

  • Post-and-beam framing, using materials like aluminum, offers a superior alternative to traditional wall-stressed framing for light building construction. This system's advantages include enhanced strength and durability, design flexibility, efficient construction, and sustainability due to material optimization and reduced waste. Specific benefits highlighted are its resilience to environmental factors and adaptability to modern technologies, such as SIPs. The text emphasizes the long-term sustainability of post-and-beam structures, particularly those using MHS Structural Aluminum Design, because of their durability, reusability, and reduced environmental impact. Ultimately, the sources advocate for a shift towards more sustainable construction practices using innovative framing systems.
