Quality Control Program Analysis for Modular Housing.

摘要

While construction materials and methods are quite similar to those employed in the erection of a conventional, 'site-built' home, the modular housing manufacturing environment allows streamlined operations. These include stationary crews, improved material handling and storage, and repetition/standardization which should, in theory, create a product of superior quality in a short period of time. However, an analysis of an existing modular housing manufacturing facility indicates that a comprehensive plan to assure, control, and document the achievement of this superior quality is not being utilized. In short, quality is not being controlled in a manner commensurate with a modern manufacturing environment. Such a deficiency renders management incapable of monitoring its production environment and making improvements in its operation. This report constructs a quality control program and implementation strategy to enable the modular housing manufacturer to properly control and document the quality of each module produced.
