I am looking for a blueprint on how to build a module that can be lifted in its entirety. That is, I am not looking for just wall elements that are lifted into place. Do you only lift in the floor cassette, or do the walls need to be constructed differently than in a regular wall element?
The idea is to build one (or two modules against each other) that will serve as temporary housing a few days a week for a few years. Then lift the modules away to another place and have them become a summer cottage.

There are probably many solutions.
You can lift with a tractor and pallet forks, but the bottom must be rigid, not bend like a banana.
You can lift with a crane and straps around the entire structure, requiring a tall crane to avoid compressing the upper part of the house/roof.
Build the floor and walls securely and attach lifting eyes at the roof.
Start with a metal container, there are people who live in those too.
Buy an Älvsbyhus.

Would it work to lift a module about 8-10m in length with pallet forks, that would be great.
I am looking for a solution that does not involve a lot of metal that cools and creates moisture problems.
How do you construct a stable base plate/floor in wood?
