A sturdy wood frame lies under the metal wall and roof skin found o ost mobile home Units. When compared with data compiled in 1970](i), 4the latest Forest Service, Depa rtment of Agriculture survey findings indicate the average mobile home now uses much more lumber for framing. This increase in lumber usage is attributed to larger uni ts and better quality constructionwith the quality factor gene rally though t to be most impor tan t. Better quality homes with sturdier framing are produced now because of h ighe r standards established: (a) Voluntarily by the mobile home >_. indus try, (ti ) by individual States, and Cc) by the U.S. Department of ~~~~_ Housing and Urban Development. The latter standard became effective t ~~~~ June 15, 1976, and is commonly referred to a s the Fed eral standard. c_) Li_i._. J Li. 1/ Main tained at Madison, Wis., in cooperation with the University of W isconsin. 2/ Und erlined numbers in parentheses refer to literature cited at end of th is report. / /,
3 To determine changes in Lumber framing requirements since 1 ) 1 ~, i he Forest Service conducted a mail questionnaire survey of all!ohii home manufacturing plants in the United States. Wita were for units manufactured in Although the Federal st:in L ~ t d been adopted s ince that time, it is very similar to the rl juirt mell ts of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Standurd A l1 4 ~.l or the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard ~ hl B. which had been adop ted in 46 States by 1974 (2, 3). Sample Data were compiled from 165 usable questionnaires returned. A pproximately 450 plants were in operation in the United States at the t ime of the survey. Responding plants represented approximately 37 percent of all existing plants. These responding plants manufactured 94,470 units or approximately 29 percent of the 330,800 mobile homes manufactured nationwide in 1974 (5). Definition o ftc rms Several different styles of housing unit are manufactured in factories. Thus, a few definitions are in order bet ore st r ~ ictti ral wood use is discussed by type of unit. Mobile home A structure transp ortable in one or more sections,. which exceeds either 8 body feet in width or 32 bod. feet in length, built on a permanent chassis and designed to he used as a dwelling with or ~~.~~ tout a permanent I oundat ion when connected to the required utilities, and includes the p 1umhin ~,, heating, air conditioning, and electrical systems contained therein. (4) These units are commonl y referred to us single wides. Double wide mobile home A mobile home consisting of two sections. combined horizontally at the site while still retaining their individual chassis for possible future movement.

[umber Iii 1970, mobile homes used an average of 1, 680 hoard feet of lumber per uni t or about 2.2 board f eet for each square foot of living area (1). In 1974, l umber use increased to 2, 520 board feet or about 2.7 board f eet for each square foot of living area. Thus, much more lumber was required per unitboth in total and per square foot. The increased total amount of l umber is due in part to the increased size of the average mobile home unit. However, the inc rea sed use of lumber on a squarefoot basis reflects the use of larger framing members in combination with closer spacing of joists and wall studs. Iii l 374, an average of 2,255 boa rd teet of lumber required for s ing lewid es, or about 2.8 board feet for each ~. foot of living area. Double wides required an average 3,317 b ~ ~ e t of lumber, or about 2.5 board feet for each square foot of living area. Estimates of lumber consumption in 1970 indicated that doublewides used mor e lumber than sing lewides (2.1 ve rsus 2.7) on a basis of board feet requi red per square foot of living a rea. The reverse of this situation in 1974 was probably due in large part to the widespread use of the ANSI Standard A or the NFPA Standard No. 501 B, coup led w ith industry efforts to build better quality units. Because of the hei ghtened interes t in lumber use trends in mobile home manuf acture since 1970, specific informa tion was obtained for sing leand doublew ides regarding dimensions used for floor, wal, and roof framing. The percen tage of different sizes of framing lumber used is shown in table 2. Data on the spacing of framing members was not specifically reques ted. ~~ However, supp lemental information obtained from followup telephone calls and in many company brochures indica ted tha t framing 16 inches on center was commonly used to mee t performance c ri teria outlined in the codes or standards. 3/ The ANSI Standard A 119.1, NFPA Standard 501 B, and the new Federal standard are all performance type codes. Although some framing spacing and dimensions are specified, mos t requirements are design oriented. 3
5 Cone Iri s i OIlS Mobile home tin it ~ manufactured in 1970 consumed, oil the average, 1, 680 board feet of lumber. By 1974, l umber Use per unit had increased by 50 percent. Because construction standards for mobile homes ire very similar to those required for sitebuilt homes, lumber use per unit will n ot like l y increase much in the next few years. But the total vo l ume of l umber required by the mobile home industry annua lly will be a major factor in the total U.S. lumber market. During the 7year period, , home shi pments averaged approximatel y 400,000 units per year (6). Shi pments reached an alltime high of 575, 900 units in 1972 but in 1975 plummeted to 212,700 unitsthe lowest level in 10 years (6). Althoug h the mobile home indus try is currentl y showing definite s igns of recove ry, it is d ifficul t to f i nd any data cir genera l economic outlook that would warrant a prediction of a rapid return to the hi gh shipmen t levels registered in the earl y years of the decad e. Rather, for the upcoming 3year period, , it is likel y that shipments will return and temporaril y stabilize at nea r the 400, 000 unit per year average established over the past 7 years. Therefore assuming, on the aver age, 2,500 bo ard feet of lumber will be used per unit, the mob ile home industry will require about I billion board feet of l umber each year for the period ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ The author thanks the staff of the Manufactured Housing Institute for their advice and assistance as well as the many plant managers and other corporate officials that provided the data reported. The author also thanks Edwa rd W. Whitehorn, Compu ter Specialist, Southeastern Forest Experimen t Station for his work on the computer program used to compile and analyze the data.
