Abstract: A building frame (100) is designed as multiple assemblages (104), (200) and (300), which are built and then collapsed for shipment in one or more shipping containers (400), transported to a building site, and removed from the corresponding shipping containers (400). the assemblages (104), (200) and (300) are constructed as a building frame (100) at the permanent building site, or, alternatively, are assembled into subassemblies at a temporary building site, and are transferred to the permanent building site.

Abstract: A method for manufacture and assembly of a concrete structure includes manufacturing, at a first location, wall sections and floor/ceiling sections. The wall sections include interior form walls of adjustable separation, and may include interior and exterior finish features, interior rebar, electrical and water supply, and optional fabric forms. The floor/ceiling sections include forms that have adjustable components, and may include rebar, interior finish features, and electrical and heating components. Wall sections and floor/ceiling sections are rotatably and slidably/rotatably attached to one another to define structure segments. Structure segments may be placed in shipping containers for transport. Structure segments are transported to a construction site in a compact orientation, manipulated to an assembled position, and then concrete is inserted into forms defined by the segments and permitted to cure.

Abstract: A method for manufacture and assembly of a structure includes manufacturing, at a first location, wall sections and floor/ceiling sections. The sections include structural portions and optionally external and interior finish features. The sections have self-aligning features, which may include rotatable attachments. At least some of the sections are attached to one another with rotatable attachments to define a structure segment. The structure segment may be placed in an assembled position, with the rotatable attachments fixed, and additional finish features are removably applied. The additional finish features are removed, and the structure segment is removed from the assembled position to a compact orientation for shipping. The structure segment may be placed in a shipping container for transport. The structure segment is transported in the folded position to a second location. The structure segment is moved to a final assembly position at the second location.
