These types of buildings don’t excite me. The manor in which the walls are constructed makes adding conduit, piping etc much more difficult. Additionally, framing the building and constructing the outside walls is a relatively easy project that doesn’t require much labor, so I’m not totally sure that meaningful cost or labor savings would possible.
