Abstract:
"BACKGROUND: The Partnership for Advancing Technology in Housing (PATH) advances Technology in the home building industry to improve the affordability and value of new and existing homes. Through public and private efforts in technology research, information dissemination, and barrier analysis, PATH is adding value to seven of the nation's key housing attributes: affordability, energy-efficiency, environmental impact, quality, durability and maintenance, hazard mitigation, and lab or safety.
The PATH mission is to improve housing affordability and value by advancing housing technology. As such, three overarching goals have been established that bear on our houses' costs, energy-efficiency, environmental impact, quality, durability & maintenanc e, hazard mitigation, and labor safety."
