Yeah, this technique definitely has a techno-cool factor, but it just isn’t replacing particularly difficult or time consuming portions of a build. It appears that if you want 2 stories the second story is stick-framed (as are the interior walls) so you can’t even avoid hiring framers entirely.

Having a new house built now and of the roughly 7 month schedule, framing, sheathing and wrapping with WRB is less than 2 weeks.
