2011 World of Modular Presentations now available
Interesting reports available at this link.
I look forward to the publication of the McGraw Hill SmartMarket Report on fabrication and modularization. Lots of great info in the 60 page PDF at the previous link. The McGraw-Hill staff told me the full report iwill be released this month.
UPDATE: The full report is now available (free) at this link.

Performance Building Institute
I just discovered the great research on Mark Sand's Performance Building Institute website. I highly recommend it as a resource for "applied BIM" and fully integrated construction.

Onebuild - New Prefab Company in Oregon
Dale Sperling, formerly of UNICO properties, is profiled in today's Seattle Times. He purchased the assets of bankrupt Transform - "for 15 cents on the dollar" - of Bellingham and Mount Vernon, Washington and moved the CNC lines to Klamath Falls, Oregon. The company website is now up and Dale stated in the article that the first sale is expected by the end of May. More coverage here from the Daily Journal of Commerce.
Great to see another prefab entrepreneur in the Pacific Northwest promoting fabrication. I very much look forward to their success - we would like to purchase wall panels from them when they are ready.

Geek Architects in love - with robots - finally!
Installed in the UK at the Fabricate! conference which took place on April 15-16. More on Digital Manufacturing in Architecture from Lara Carim.
We have had a long-term and committed relationship with cnc robotics for years. Take a look at this video showing our process on a residential project we did in Tahoe (one of over 1,000 fabrication projects we have worked on in Europe and North America).http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
And for those intrigued with advanced (and very fast) cam/cnc I recommend watching the video below.
Update: and here is "Robots in Architecture" association.
