How much does a MAS™ structure cost?

Posted by:

Although the structure cost will be significantly less than ANY other form of construction, that is a difficult question to answer as MAS™ does NOT actually build structures.

If you want to know what a turn-key system, fully finished with rooms, appliances etc. will cost it is necessary to speak with a contractor.  Although MAS™ works with a great number of 3rd party vendors that can supply interior packages, etc. MAS™ is not involved with the pricing of these options.

The cost to build ...

I want a MAS™ structure (building) built for my own use, how do I get one?

Posted by:

MAS™ does NOT build MAS™ systems.  MAS™ certifies persons/companies and provides a per system License for each MAS™ structure built.  If you want a single MAS™ structure you have two choices:

(1) Contract with a Contractor that already has the capability/experience of building MAS™ systems, and can easily give you a quote.  A list of such companies (dealers) can be found at: http://www.modernarchstructures.com/community/dealers

(2) Find a local contractor of your choice and have them get trained by MAS™ or an independent field trainer.

Note:  Many persons desiring just ...

The Video shows foam board without metal framed walls being used to form the MAS™ system?

Posted by:

That is NOT correct.  There are NO metal framed walls making up the MAS™ system.  There is a patented MAS™ cage forming system that can accept sacrificial foam for insulation or re-usable polycarbonate  substrate panels.  In both cases, the metal cage form is removed and reused.

How susceptible to puncture by re-bar or other objects is the inflatable form?

Posted by:

Puncture is not an issue.  The pressure is very low and the material is very strong.  Although a puncture is possible, it can be repaired with tape in the field in a few minutes time without a problem.  The repair material is stronger than the original material and thus there is no negative impact or worries about making such repairs.

Has a MAS™ system been successfully constructed without the use of lift equipment?

Posted by:

Yes.  MAS™ has designed a scaffolding system called “SPiFolding” that surrounds the entire structure and therefore eliminates any need for a mechanical lift.  The SPiFolding system allows multiple persons to work concurrently on the MAS™ structure without interference.  The SPiFolding can be ordered separately or as part of the forming package.

Are the doors and windows supplied as part of the MAS™ system?

Posted by:

No, however all the openings for such doors and windows are formed as part of the construction of the MAS™ system.  There are no “bucks”, channels, stops, etc. required.  Once the MAS™ system shell is complete it is a simple matter to install windows and doors in the formed opening.  In addition, there is no increased cost to have one or more windows as the MAS™ patented forming system allows for great flexibility in such placement within the areas so designated by MAS™ engineering.

Is the interior layout up to the owner/builder or is that part of the integral design of the MAS™ system?

Posted by:

The MAS™ consists of the exterior shell only.  However, MAS™ has worked with numerous 3rd party vendors to provide interior options.  The MAS™ system can use any standard interior configuration used typical construction.  However, the MAS™ interior is often constructed of concrete partitions to allow a virtually damage proof configuration.  MAS™ provides many interior floor plans to help guide those incorporating the MAS™ system into their projects.
