METHOD FOR SETTING A BUILDING ON A SUBDIVISION LOT

1 . A method for placing a building on a subdivision lot, comprising the steps of:

providing a planned community subdivision having a plurality of lots;

preparing a first lot of said plurality of lots to accept at least one building;

assembling at least one substantially complete building in a factory;

transporting said substantially complete building from said factory to said planned community subdivision;

moving said substantially complete building to a position within said subdivision that is adjacent to said first lot;

traversing said substantially complete building over said first lot to a second lot; and

installing said substantially complete building onto said second lot.

2 . The method according to claim 1 , further comprising the step of placing a second building on said first lot after said first building has been placed on said second lot.

3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said preparing step includes excavating said first lot and said second lot and said traversing step further includes traversing said substantially complete building over said first excavated lot.

4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said substantially complete building does not include a building foundation.

5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein said preparing step includes creating a building foundation; and

said installing step includes coupling said substantially complete building on said building foundation.

6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said step of assembling said substantially complete building in a factory includes coupling a building foundation to said substantially complete building.

7 . The method according to claim 6 , wherein said building foundation is a lightweight building foundation.

8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said factory is proximate to said planned community subdivision.

9 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said factory is separated from said planned community subdivision by at least one public transportation route and said substantially complete building is transported over said one public transportation route.

10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said transporting, moving, and traversing steps are performed by a building transportation device formed by coupling two independently propelled and controlled transport vehicles and supporting said substantially complete building between said coupled transport vehicles.

11 . A method for placing a building on a subdivision lot, comprising the steps of:

providing a planned community subdivision having a first lot adjacent to a second lot and said second lot adjacent to a third lot, such that said first, second, and third lots form at least one row;

preparing each said lot to accept at least one building;

assembling at least one substantially complete building in a factory;

transporting said substantially complete building from said factory to said planned community subdivision;

moving said substantially complete building to a position within said subdivision that is adjacent to said first lot;

traversing said substantially complete building over said first and second lots to said third lot, wherein said substantially complete building crosses

at least one shared border between said first and second lots;

at least one shared border between said second and third lots; and

said third lot is the last unoccupied lot in said at least one row of lots;

installing said substantially complete building onto said third lot; and

repeating said steps of assembling, transporting, moving, traversing, and installing until at least one building is installed on each of said lots in said at least one row of lots.

12 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein said preparing step includes excavating said first, second, and third lots and said traversing step includes traversing said substantially complete building over said first and second excavated lots.

13 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein said step of assembling said substantially complete building in a factory includes coupling a building foundation to said substantially complete building.

14 . The method according to claim 13 , wherein said building foundation is a lightweight building foundation.

15 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein said factory is proximate to said planned community subdivision.

16 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein said factory is separated from said planned community subdivision by at least one public transportation route and said substantially complete building is transported over said one public transportation route.

17 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein said transporting, moving, and traversing steps are performed by a building transportation device formed by coupling two independently propelled and controlled transport vehicles and supporting said substantially complete building between said coupled transport vehicles.

18 . A system of placing a building on a subdivision lot comprising:

a subdivision having a plurality lots, wherein a first lot is prepared and adapted to accept at least one building;

a factory configured to assemble at least one substantially complete building;

a building transportation device adapted to:

(a) move said at least one substantially complete building from said factory to a position within said subdivision that is adjacent to said first lot;

(b) traverse said first lot to a second lot within said subdivision with said substantially complete building; and

(c) position and release said substantially complete building on said second lot, wherein said second lot is said at least one prepared lot.

19 . The system of claim 18 , wherein said building transportation device is further adapted to transport said substantially complete building by coupling two independently propelled and controlled transport vehicles and supporting said substantially complete building between said coupled transport vehicles.

20 . The system of claim 19 , wherein said first and second lots have areas excavated to receive said substantially complete building;

said building transportation device further adapted to:

pass directly over said first excavation area by straddling said first excavation area; and

straddle said second excavated area to perform step (c).
