N2 - This research presents in-depth survey of the F.8x8. B.C.C. House: a demountable house devised by Ateliers Jean Prouve during WWII. Due to the limit of steel, Prouve utilized the axial portal frame structure developed in 1939 and eventually adopted wood instead. An analysis revealed that he paid carefully attention to attributes of wood: durability, lightweight and easy to form. These 3 aspects might allow quick dismantle & assemble methods, low waste in production process, and create distinctive wooden architectural and structural characteristics. Thus the emergence of the F.8x8.BCC House can show Prouve' s ingenious abilities to overcome difficulties in wartime.
