For my animation, I want to place several objects in my scene individually,
group them somehow and perform transform operations on the entire group.
#declare groups the objects, but then I have to insert all objects as one unit.
Is there a way to create a group as you place the items in one at a time?
Something like:
#group {eastwall}
object { LongPlate
rotate z*90
rotate y*90
rotate x*-90 }
object { LongPlate
rotate z*90
rotate y*90
translate z*94.125
rotate x*-90 }
object { ShortPlate
rotate z*90
rotate y*90
translate <3.5, 0, 95.625>
rotate x*-90 }
#for (i, 1.5, 241.5, 16)
object {Stud
rotate z*90
translate <i, 0, 1.5>
rotate x*-90 }
#end
#endgroup
translate {eastwall} x*-90
then I would use a clock to place each item individually then transform the
entire group.

Nope.
Depending on what exactly you want to do, you might want to try
pre-defining the particular transform, and then applying it to multiple
objects:
#declare MyTrans = transform {
rotate x*-90
scale <2,3,4>
}
...
object { Foo
transform { MyTrans }
}
object { Bar
transform { MyTrans }
}
Note however that this probably doesn't give the intended result if one
of the objects is part of a CSG compound that itself is subject to some
transformation.

Use union 2.2.3.2 CSG Union
union{ // Start of union

I want to build the wall laying down on the "concrete slab" then stand it and
move it into place as one unit. I am currently building the wall standing up
which is not very realistic.

Maybe it helps to recall that an animation's frames do not all have to
have the same hierarchical strucuture; for instance, you can use:
#declare Part1 = box {...}
#declare Part2 = box {...}
#if (clock < 0.5)
// move items individually
object { Part1 rotate ... translate ... }
object { Part2 rotate ... translate ... }
#else
// move items together
union {
object { Part1 }
object { Part2 }
rotate ... translate ...
}
#end

I would say that building a wall standing up is the way most people
build walls. ;-)

Although it is not recommended. You can use nested unions to have
various local transformation points.

actually, I framed houses for many years. We always built the wall laying down
on the slab, then stood it up and nailed it in place.

clearly I don't understand how the clock works with animation yet. When I
render I get the shed completely built on the first frame and 19 repeats of the
same scene.
