This system doesn't help in places where land prices are much higher than the price of building a house there i.e most major cities. We need policy changes which give more land to apartments, where the price of the land is shared by multiple flats as opposed to single family homes where the single owner has to bare the entire cost of the land.
Loving all things B1M...
Think I've worked my way thru all your content.. Now I'm constant showing people my favorite videos haha
Can't wait to see more..
Love the fact the Optus Perth Arena got a mention on the 2020 stadiums vid... YAY FROM PERTH!!!
Can you make a video about swiss highrises? This videos are extremely good.
BLITZ BUILD
Could you maybe try to make information-packed videos again instead of glorified ads? Thanks.
The B1M is the Kurzgesagt of construction.
High praise!
the most accurate sentence ever uttered by a human.
I just wish every person in the world would watch both of these channels, so we would have more people interested in these topics.
@Ryan indeed. i admire their creativity and effort into every video they make. just truly such a joy learning new things
I wasted 30 minutes trying to read “kurzgesaget”
@@faisalaljohani1941 Kurzgesagt, stems from the German words kurz (short) and gesagt (to have said). It is a way of saying 'in short' and is working its way into English as an addition to a vocabulary, that is lacking such constructed and very descriptive words. Another example would be Schadenfreude and an older one Zeitgeist. :-)
This is the only TH-cam channel that doesn't waste my time because it's awsome!!!😂
Haha, thank you so much!!
Yep ..... Facts 👍
Lol
Agreed hahaha
Check out Smarter Every Day. Then you will have two channels that don't waste your time. :)
To paraphrase H. Ford: "You can have any style home you want as long as it's like everyone else's."
I think the room for customization on these kinds of things are huge. It wouldn’t be crazy if one day you can literally build the house you want online and have it printed.
Not saying you think this way, but there's a lot of people that feel they deserve to have certain things. I deserve to drive a fancy car. I deserve to have the latest iPhone. I deserve to have a certain type of house. And that mindset is in part why countries like the US and Australia (where I'm at) are more in debt than ever. Something that has driven up prices of property to insane levels.
The cold hard truth is that you deserve to have a roof over your head, you deserve to have food on your table and you deserve to be healthy. Most things beyond that are a luxury. A unique home is a luxury and if you can afford that luxury, that's great. But you don't deserve it. These types of homes are for those that can't afford the luxury, which is a lot of us nowadays. And to add to that, billions of people around the world in less developed countries can only dream to live in a house like those shown in the video. They couldn't care less that it happens to look the same as the neighbour's home.
Of site construction is not the same as modular design
They actually made Model T Fords in other colours too.
@@lemster101 you must be from Australia if you think people deserve health, shelter, and food. In the US everyone would say be homeless, starve, and die without a doctor
The UK government should fully get behind off site construction, we need more homes at a faster rate so people are able to buy a home without having to borrow hundreds of thousands
What he said 👆
They need more homes but more than that , they need affordable homes.
No, we're not having replacement birth rates. How about stop this foreign influx House price bubble economy before it goes pop. We don't need more houses. We need less people
We need to stop allowing property and land prices to rise to stupid amounts. It creates incentive to just sit on land rather than to develop it. If we gave everyone a home there wouldn't be any profit in it.
We need less immigration - 1 million Eastern Europeans over a couple of years is just crazy. The EU freedome of movement policy is still destroying UK.
The only Thing Keeping me Alive This Quarantine is B1M .

Same here .... 👍

This topic is incredibly interesting, thank you for the amazing quality videos.
Huge potential for the future. We are just scratching the surface. Very exciting
I really can't believe this is a TH-cam Channel. The quality is really awesome. It really looks like a natgeo documentary. Congrats!
Thumb up: done even before the video started
subscription: done a year ago
video: being watched as I type.
review: 11/10
Conclusion: Look forward to the next video.
Thank you The B1M

Prefab is what the USSR did to scale up housing units for 300+ million people.
It works. The design better be good, or else we all get the same type of home .-)
Yeah and they imported the idea and factory from France
That's the other problem. Insane ugly cities with high crime rates because nobody wants to live there. We need to build a lot of houses but it also needs to look good so people want to move there.
@derkhaslol Cities can have a higher crime rate due to many more factors than them just being cities, Economic, social, and education are great indicators of whether a city will have a high crime rate. Also simple fact: more people = more crimes committed due to there being more people in a smaller area (again based on many different factors not just being inside a city). Example - - -10 crimes per 1000 people living in a city of 600,000 compared to 15 crimes 1000 people in a rural area with about 15000 people are going to have more (not a higher crime rate!) compared to a city of 600,000 which as many more of those 10/1000 pieces.
derkhaslol it’s possible now, but when the ussr did it they had all of their money running for the space race, military technologies and politics so they couldn’t make some fancy ass buildings
Wasn't one of the favorite movies during Soviet time about a guy who went to the wrong house thinking it was his because they all looked the same?
None of these methods would work in California.... no one who owns land there wants to see their property value go down. So local governments just block any and all projects.

I love your channel. Constantly impressed by quality of the content you put out.
I'm just overall fascinated by the progress of our infrastructure. Watching your videos makes me realize how much potential we're wasting.
4:20 you didn't mention in the video cost of these houses. so I looked it up these houses are going to cost $300,000 to $350,000 that's not affordable housing.
That's pretty affordable. I live in British Columbia Canada where a brand new 1 bedroom apartment can cost $450,000. Hey a three bedroom townhouse will cost over $1,000,000. Let's not even talk about single detached family homes. Also wages have barely changed in the last 15 years. Starting teacher salary for example is only 40k. These projects seem very affordable to me.
@@TheJohnnyabody did u take US and Canadian dollar conversions into account?
@@trusttheprocess4775 I didn't even think about that it's actually in British pounds so it's way more $370,000 to $430,000.

Incredible, how construction technology has changed in the past 30 - 40 years!
If innovation in construction engineering is to be found, I'm sure I'll see it here.
Bravo, Fred! Bravo, B1M! The Best of the 'Net!
This channel is insane, looks amazing on a 4 or 8k device. I look forward to the next one.
Love seeing videos on single family construction, my sector! Thanks B1M!
Consistently the best videos on construction. It's history, present, and future. Presented in an interesting way. Yay B1M!!
My favorite TH-cam channel delivers again. Great content.
I agree to put solar panels at the roof top of houses specially on govt housing programs..
Which would you rather solar panel or solar paint?
LOL. Govt housing houses the type of people who will strip the panels and sell them to the junkyard for a few bucks to buy fenthanyl.
B1M is the best channel on YT, keep bringing the brill content!
This is one of the reasons I want to get into property development. Building dense modular apartment buildings to help alleviate the housing crisis.

True true. Housing is a big problem. If solved could create a lot of wealth at the same time help low income earners.
Not sure where you live but the biggest hurdles are usually NIMBY's and terrible zoning. At least that's what's caused the housing crisis in California.
Live in the pods. Eat the bugs.
This the best channel I have ever subscribed. Thank u so much Fred! I am majoring in civil engineering in NYU and I planning to this project to end homelessness in my country. Modular Homes are the future for overpopulation.
Always love the quality of these videos, TH-cam should have more channels with quality on par with this
ah yes, keep it up B1M! thought I was running out of B1M videos to watch because for the past 3 weeks, I think I've watched almost all of them already
I really do feel the housing supply pinch, even in a highly developed area. Here in California, the biggest solution we have to housing supply is just to keep increasing urban sprawl, rather than building up the urban core. As a result, there's an increasing commute time for workers to crazy levels. I live in the Central Valley, yet even here people will do a "Super Commute" of 2-3 hours each way to the San Francisco Bay Area since trying to live in SF proper is just impossible at this point.
In Australia we do something called a reverse build. The insulation and qyorock plasterboard (drywall) is completed before the external brickwork. This allows the internal components of the home, like the stairs and kitchen to be constructed at the same time as the brick layers, it speeds up the process, however leaving the internal of a home exposed has lead to a few complications
I genuinely look forward to each week when the B1M uploads a video because I know it will be a great yet also interesting video. This latest video was what I knew it will be- great and interesting
YES! as always
STEM Wednesday with B1M
For someone writing a Thesis on Modular Construction, I found this video quite reassuring that OUR future would be better. (Smiles).
Thanks B1M.
I swear you guys always post around the time I wake up haha. Another amazing video :)
THANK YOU, B1M it is a main topic and very important that how to build fast I have understand clearly
this gave me a great idea, good job to all the parties involved including b1m
My heart smiles when I see a new B1M video 😭🥺
one thing I love about this channel is that you guys don’t shove the video sponsor down our throats. Instead, you just explain and describe the idea and let us make up our own minds. Good stuff.

I live in London and the rent here is so damn expensive. I’m considering moving even though I love the city
IM JUST VIBING Why don’t you move to Paris ?
Evan Page he probably wants to remain in the uk
Evan Page I’ve visited Paris and it’s beautiful but i can’t speak french, same for Japan, but not speaking the native tongue really is a disadvantage
NYC is expensive asl, and I’ve lived here my entire life. It just simply is not the best place to return after post grad unless you have a super well paying job.
If you want friendliness, move t north. Newcastle and Sheffield are nice and affordable 👍
THE B1M, THE BEST CHANNEL I HAVE EVER FOUND. PERIOD.
Thank you so much!!! None of it would be possible without our viewers ✊
Best channel in TH-cam, it gives so much cool and interesting information, B1M I hope you the best, and all of you reading my comment, stay safe! 😁
Thanks for your episode ! It give me strength to start planning how I can change housing quality in my community !
Thank you for uploading this in HD so i can enjoy this on TV screen
Nice video as always! Cool that you mention Sweden.
Loving this, it's exactly what the housing market needs ..... great stuff !!! 🔥🔥🔥
Food for thought:
1. In 19th century and prior, people made buildings out locally available and cheap materials (within 10-15 km). This made their housing very non-modular and required skilled labour. But labour was available (who sometimes were the tenants themselves).
2. Modular construction means: We don't have enough skilled labour. Make 50% to 100% of the building where we can provide labour in a factory, with materials very far away from site. Then ship the building to site in pieces and assemble it. Its a trade-off between building material costs and skilled labour costs.
Is that necessarily progress?
And if we add how they all look similar, I bet in 30 to 40 years, these will be torn down to be rebuild again. Like what is happing in Sweden, Japan or the US right now. I don’t see how all of this is sustainable or eco friendly with all the unnecessary waste created.
Similar to sending raw materials to China then buying it back as goods. Waste of energy
Modular construction lacks quality. You often end up having to do major repairs in your 5-year old house. Paying more upfront will save you in the long run. Always be your own builder, don’t hire mass building companies. Those companies cheap out on contractors and will hire the cheapest ones possible and you will have no control over that and what they are doing. Then select architects and contractors yourself and do as much as you can by yourself.
Cartoon and TH-cam channels like templin institute, nostalgia critic, and BM1 are keeping me going in this pandemic.
The irony that this video came out on the week of my exam and this question came up! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 #offsitemanufacturingisthefuture!
Thanks for the tips, will use it when I am building some homes later tonight
Good video. The home building process has needed changes for a long time.

B1M What channel is amazing and great video👍🏾
I think it’s time African leaders adapt this method of providing affordable housing for its citizens that will give away slums and other shanties that are prone to natural disasters.
More important than houses is investment in infrastructure like power, sewage and roads so that people can live healthy, productive lives.
@@justbecause3187 but housing should come first.
Maybe it's time African leaders start caring for and empathising in the citizens they're leading. Africa still has too much egotrippers in charge (thanks to tribe mentality, the colonial past, current CCP debt-trap diplomacy) neglecting their people.
if i'm not mistaken there was a project like this in Tanzania to build 65 000 houses
@@nicholashlatshwayo532 good to hear that from Africa. I really happy that the peace and hard working people in Africa happens. I just hear Ebola. Crisis. Deaths. From Africa.
In some places in Luxembourg, the housing prices raise as much as 40% per year! So this innovative method is needed very urgently here.
As a civil engineer, I really would enjoy watching a full documentary about the Etopia project: how they choose the materials, the assembly, what are the challenges for such building methods ....?
The B1M is the my favourite you tube channel
Shouldn't we be building apartments instead of homes to tackle housing supply problem?
There's demand for both
no, apartments are eye sore
At least townhomes aren't as bad as traditional suburban homes.
Yes in theory but people don’t really like to live in flats
@@user-km1nu2hw5w an eyesore but we need cheap housing I'm afraid, we can't afford it
Edit: there's a possibility I wish they'd consider is making apartment blocks look a lot nicer but I'm aware it's just be against the point of cheaper housing, but ugh they do suck
Yes, Fred, I did enjoy but I'm already subscribed
Great video, nice work.
I did a social studies project on this topic back in November 2019.
As usual it's a great video, thanks guys!
There are a few questions though that could also be addressed: how developers and property owners can be stopped from artificially increasing demand by either blocking the development of approved sites or keeping properties empty instead of renting them out. Another question could be why the focus is on small houses instead of actually appealing apartment buildings? Single family houses with private gardens consume a lot of land and don't scale well with the increasing demand. New concepts of modern apartments could challenge that and be very economical and ecological on a much smaller footprint and without demolishing greenbelt areas needlessly. Those government policies mentioned at the beginning of the video have (in the UK) a bigger impact than one would think...
I absolutely love the video 👌🏾💕
Great vdeo,

Thank you!! ✊Nice member icon btw..!
The B1M is one of my favorite YT channels. Quality at its finest. Let me ask, do you have a website/blog? You need to transcipe this content and put it on a blog.
Thank you The BIM.
This is the best TH-cam channel
An excellent presentation, thanks. 👌👌👏👏👏👏
The UK's population isn't growing remotely fast enough to explain the rising cost of housing through a lack of supply, and the people regurgitating this argument nonetheless willingly or unwillingly obscure the real reason. Ever more housing is in the hands of ever fewer, ever greedier real estate magnates, and if this trend continues there will come a time when these people are burnt at the stake.
Might be suitable for affordable housing, but coming from Germany I am used to a different kind of living standard than the US or UK and would never accept this for my personal home. Additionally, spending 1-2million can actually get me ridiculously luxurious houses in Germany. Nothing you could ever get in the countries mentioned above, so I think the problems run much much deeper and are more of an economic nature than a construction method one. I would advice you to check out the Economists publication on those issues, they give you a pretty good rundown
Here in Dhaka, Bangladesh, 1 million US dollars will get you 500-1000sq/ft of land... maybe with a 1 story dilapidated ruins of an old building on top that will cost you to remove.
Was laberst du? Für 1-2Millionen bekommst du nichts. Für das bekommst du in der Stadt nicht viel und luxuriöse Häuser in dem Preisrahmen hat’s eigentlich fast nicht auf dem Land. In den USA kriegst du in Texas für 400k schon ne richtige Mansion. Die ist dann vllt nicht nach allen möglichen DIN und ISO Normen gebaut worden aber du bekommst mehr fürs Geld. Besser als in Deutschland in einem Minihaus mit den ach so tollen Baustandards zu leben.
Bro 2 million dollars would get you 4 350 sqm ( 700 sqm lot ) houses in Texas or Nevada
Love these sort of videos about the future of the construction industry. It gives me an insight into what I'll be doing in my future construction career.
I only hope houses don’t continue to lose their local style. It’s sad how whether you’re in North Wales, Cornwall, or Glasgow, new houses look the same.
this is completely antithetical to local design...
If it was only this... Buildings in North America, East Asia and Europe start to look all the same.
Same... Modern architecture is beginning (if not already) to lose all sense of culture and just look the same everywhere.
This is not a new problem, post war homes basically came in about 5 different designs depending on the number bedrooms. So you will not see any differences between London or Liverpool.
Hopefully builders will take advantage of the modular nature of prefab to make customization more economical.
There are companies in Europe that send you a brand new house and assemble it for you in a day for 60 000 euro.
There is a heavy pressure from all sorts of people, comapnies, corporations, investment groups and even governments who are heavily invested into housing prices going UP and UP and UP.
In some cases entire economies (UK for example) totally stand on high and constantly rising prices of properties...and would experience some form of economic collapse if the prices would suddenly go down due to new cheap affortable housing pouring into their economy.
((that's the main reason that I blame this problem..of course everything mentioned in the video also adds to the complexity of the overall issue))
Great video, thanks.
What company can do this for €60k?
Genuinely asking I'm interested

Me at 4am: "to get more from the definitive channel about construction. Subscribe to the B1M"
Great video, has me asking questions like how to easily design build and maintain houses for a million different families that have a million different situations on a million different locations. Always start by identifying the goal, the more ambitious you can make that goal the better, then look at existing solutions and where those solution can be improved using knowledge, ingenuity and innovation. Modular houses are awesome at this it really let's you piece together a house in any environment for whatever needs. Building the modules can be altered, scaled up and designed based on the need. It is an amazing time to live in a world that can tackle such hard problems logically not being stuck in the this is how we do things mentality.
Thanks for the brilliant quality..
No problem, thanks so much for watching! 👍
Less sprawls and more flats an 8 story building can house 60 people while 2 house plots (wich is the same size as the building) can only MAX 8.
