How many nails do you need to build a 1200 to 1500 square foot house?

The house that will be 3 or 4 bedrooms, it is one story, asphalt shingles, the living area is open into the kitchen. This is a project for a trade show booth that we are hoping will create interest in our local Habitat for Humanity Chapter. Any estimated figures will be great!





Thank you for your help!How many nails do you need to build a 1200 to 1500 square foot house?
http://prefabcosm.com/home/perrinepod/ and http://www.inhabitat.com/2007/08/10/pref鈥?/a> Aren't they cool..!!! This is how we, of the 21st century America should be living.. MODERN..!!!





How about a house that can be erected in three days. But this is no flimsy, mail order, do-it-yourself number, the Perrinepod is made from pre-cast, pre-stressed and tensioned concrete and is cyclone and earthquake proof. How: precast concrete.. complete, inside and out, including mechanical systems...??





Forget the wood.. it rots %26amp; is termite food..!! Forget asphalt shingles that blow away %26amp; don't last.. and last.. That's how houses should be built..!! Safe %26amp; strong %26amp; lasting..!!!





Btw.. here is another ';habitat for humanity'; - this seems the way we should go: http://www.inhabitat.com/





PS.. sorry about the nail problem.. I can't think of those obsolete things anymore..
