Program Overview

This course is designed for anyone interested in the Tiny House Movement here in the Eastern Sierra. We have started our first High Performance, Affordable, Off-grid Tiny House on Wheels and this class will begin the building of the walls and roof structure. Students will learn how to build with an innovative construction method known as Structural Insulated Panels or SIPs. We will work together to complete the install of the Panels, air-gap seals, and moisture barrier for the structure.
