Great info! I lived in a few places in Arizona and some had scorpions and some didn’t. These residences were not far from each other as well. Scorpions are hard to get rid of, I agree, it’s better to inquire with your neighbors before renting or buying.
bro get to the freakin point.. 2 mins in and still babbling
Ok
How much would it cost for me to build a very small house in Bouquetta or buy a new condo?
Could be around 130k, depending on what you consider big or small regarding sqft 👍🏼
@@AxiomaBoqueteConstruction I understand that I must spend 200K to get residency. So I could get a pretty nice place then for 200k...?
@@2coolartsmusicmom572 not to brag, but of course! I put a lot of effort into my designs 👍🏼
Thank you jackie. for all that you do.
Is it better with blocks or steel?
Steel for most projects
Beautiful 🤩
So cool! I do architecture work here in the US and considering moving to Panama and have always been excited about seeing these types of homes go up!
Doesn't Panamá have earthquakes? I thought that would be a reason
We just got one on Monday 😂 no damage at all on our projects 🙌🏼
I enjoyed you sharing your information. Would it be possible to build a container home in Boquete. This is what I am thinking about. Are you familiar with container homes? Ron
Good morning Ron, yes of course Don a couple of container houses already built in Boquete how far or close are you to choosing a container house? Is this something that you are just considering or you are 100% positive that’s what you want?
Comejen/termites will destroy your WOKE/Lefty home here in Panamá. In the good old days the world had more availability of OLD wood. You can't really find old wood anymore. Woke gringos are not welcomed here in Panamá. Also they should all learn Spanish.
Size
Or, maybe because nowadays it's cheaper to build with wood in USA than in Panamá. Even building with steel frame that is similar in concept as using wood, is cheaper in Panamá. I would say everything lies on costs.
Very interesting, good job, I am building a house in the mountain, no water no electricity away from it all, is an all year raining place, so is very humid, there are several types of wood that are termite and humidity resistant the only problem with framing is that the posts have to be of concrete if you want the rest of the house to last.
I bought a house and had to destroy it because of termites--I learned that wood can be problematic. That said, they also have foam sheets with metal mesh. I am assuming that is 2nd floor only.
Nevermind the termites. I had the privilege of living during my childhood in a post WWII era house. Thick walls (even a foot or more in places) of clay bricks, and the shade of a nearby newer building kept us really cool, and the roof, a well built (for the time period) mixture of oak and classic clay roof tiles and really high ceilings, kept us really fresh. I can honestly say, that house was not hot. But YES, it was pretty maintenance intensive, I missed out on spraying insecticide one summer and we got termites on the roof, and that was the beginning of the end for that house. The thing is, termites fly during their nuptial flight phase (saw this on the Discovery Channel), so, even if you douse whole hectares of terrain with whatever it is that kills termites, they'll successfully invade your roof rafters within 6 months. So the wood has to be treated before construction and often again, going forward. Nowadays people use galvanized steel beams and clay composite extrusions of different popularity and shapes, and lots of insulation with a vinyl ceiling, it makes for a fresher home, I find. Also I found a video a few months ago that goes against what you said regarding wood vs cement building performance against fire. I saw the test and found it accurately done. This is a similar video, although not the same, ruclips.net/video/G-J86Ka9MkQ/видео.html A fire in a wood building will often not reach over IDK, a few hundred degrees, but in a concrete house, temperatures will reach over a 1000 ºC. This is due to the way concrete is very good at reflecting heat. Now, I'll say, I'm still not sold on the idea of using timber to build down here, and beyond fire prevention and safety, I see no reason to shoot yourself in the foot by trying, It will be extraordinarily expensive. My grandpa was a carpentry aficionado, and timber and any wood really was very expensive back then, I can only imagine how prices have gone up. Like wood? Try a veneer 😅
My wooden roof (wood beams, wood boards and machimbre) got completely ruined by comejen (termites).
Oh you can but better watch for termites and scarabs and fungus and water.... also find skilled workers familiar with timber frames. Etc etc.
En lo personal he tenido muchos problemas con termitas, no importa qué producto haya usado antes que aparecieran o después. Tal como Usted comenta la madera es un material inflamable. Si se diseña correctamente las viviendas de madera deberían soportar las cargas de viento y sismo que estipula el Reglamento Estructural de Panamá (actualmente la versión 2021). Sobre los bloques le invito que lea la Tesis de ingeniería civil de César Kiamco sobre el aporte estructural de los bloques, todo depende del diseño estructural, es decir, se puede hacer que los bloques sean mas que un sistema de recubrimiento. Definitivamente la arquitectura en Panamá ha olvidado sus raíces tropicales y queremos casas mas al estilo Miami o edificios como en Manhattan ocasionando un alto consumo eléctrico por requerir aires acondicionados 24/7.
excellent content...
Thanks!
You need to look into Queenslander houses, or the wood frame colonial architecture of Guyana, Jamaica, Belize, Ceylon...etc. You can even find these houses in Colo, Bocas, etc, and there are a few in Puerto Armuelles as well. Breezy, elegant and far cooler than concrete block houses. These type of houses were designed pre-A/C.
good stuff - let's keep it going !
everyone I know with clay tiles has problems with leaks which can be a nightmare to find. They discolor in a few years suggesting mold. Then if you have antennas solar panels etc on the roof installation workers can easily damage the tiles. As the architect says they look great.
Thanks 🙏🏼
Rommel, 1st commentary is very true! Building with is a reasonable way just because it’s cheap (and Panamanians know how to produce this stuff). Variolä and Vigas from steel are also a rational way to build - but we will see, how prices will evolve 😅. You should do an extra video how to build correctly with bloques, means avoiding classical mistakes like not to use damp / moisture barriers in the foundation… best! Karl
Termites!

Neat
Clay tile roofs (which I use in my home) are critical to ensuring air circulation in humid climates. Since Panama has no hurricanes, they are a perfect solution to keeping breathability while also preventing heat from penetrating the home
Hello, please check the first comment :)
As an engineer and natural builder working in Panama, you can definitely build with wooden framing, use straw insulation, and plaster externally with lime. This is inspired by traditional practices and works much better for the climate. In areas with quakes, you need flexible structures, not rigid ones, in order to promote safety. Additionally, concrete is an unbreathable material, and most modern builders do not mention that concrete traps humidity and mold. In Boquete, you see homes running dehumidifiers 24/7 because concrete is a terrible material for wet climates. This is a poor building practice that works against nature instead of with it. There are smarter ways to build for this climate, which is why there are 200 year old casas de quincha (mud homes) in Panama!
lmao, so much nonsense . I can tell you are either not an actual engineer or a very very bad one.
Hey! Thanks for the comment, I'm actually subscribed your channel and I follow you on ig as well. In fact I almost book one of your courses but my schedule was not cooperating. Having said this I agree with you. You can build any way you want, 2x4, unconventional materials, reused materials etc etc etc. There is no fixed way to build a single family house if you can get your house an occupancy permit. The main reason why people use concrete is because there is an industry around construction with concrete, which goes from construction codes to construction materials, just as in other places there is a building industry around bamboo (bali), clay bricks (colombia and india) or stone blocks (tunisia). Sometimes these construction industries preffer the weather so they build according to the place they are located, sometimes they preffer financial reasons and sometimes they prefer a culture. Here, Quincha houses are perfect, those are the original houses made in panama and for panama weather, mainly on pre colonial and during colonial times. After adopting european traditions, builders started copying blocks as panamanian construction methods and the quincha houses for enclosement and the straw roofs were replaced, up to the point that quincha houses are not feasable to build anymore in a massive way. Construction with concrete blocks and poured concrete has its pros and cons such as all the other construction methods but, even today the industry keeps evolving and new methods (not always the best) are trying to be introduced. The topic can go on and on, specially with experts like both of us, so having said this I would really like to meet you one day and maybe collab together. Have a great day and thanks for your time reading this (y)(y)
@AxiomaBoqueteConstruction it would be great to collab someday! Absolutely agree, pros and cons with everything!
I think you are partially right with the earthquake argument, but just based of experience ive not seen many houses with earthquake damage, so even if in theory wood framed houses work better it doesnt seem to be true. Also i think that the reason why houses are wet is because the interface between wall and ground slab is wrong.
I do not see very many concrete or steel doors or kitchen cabinets or furniture. You have millions of board feet of teak that Panama exports as logs. There are also many native woods that can be used in construction. There are many old house built by the banana company that are still in use. There is no school that I know of in Panama that teaches woodworking or wood construction. You talk to architects and most have no idea what a stud or a joist is and why they are 24" or 16" apart Wood framing done properly is stronger in earthquakes than blocks. Wood is stronger than concrete pound for pound. Wood flooring and paneling look a lot better than painted concrete floors, walls, & ceilings. BATIPA TEAK has a 1000 hectare teak plantation.
Why do most of the houses in Panama have leaky roofs? I have looked at buying 20 houses in Panama over the last two years and only one did not have significant water damage from roof leaks.
what if the entrance is on the higher side of the plot?
Not a fan of being attacked with loud noises right at the start of a vid. And why do you need a sloped driveway if your land accesses from the bottom of the block? So long as you can cut enough flat ground to put a garage close to street level, you can have stairs or a lift up from that to the rest of your build. The real limit is how far up your local planning laws will allow you to go, and how to fit that onto the slope of the block.
I hate scorpions 🦂😒 think I'll stay put
Noooooo 😂
excellent ! I'm looking to build near your area... will be contacting you soon.
Looking forward to it (y)
Llegue aqui investigando sobre arquitectos constructores de casas porque mi madre tiene un terreno en Chiriqui y quiere construir una casa y lleva años dándole vueltas al tema de mudarse de la ciudad a allá pero le da muchas vueltas al tema de construirla y la logística y eso, viendo tu video al final me quedé enganchado al tema de la construcción con estructuras de madera y eso que ni venía a ver eso jajaja muy dinámico y entretenido tu video amigo!

Panama is a mountainous country and offers areas that are not as tropically murderous as lower lands. Especially in Central America it calls for third type of construction. It's not wooden (like most US and Canada) and it can't be concrete/masonry (too heavy) like traditional construction in rest of Panama. Many projects has to be build on stilts with no use of wood or masonry. What is used for foundation, walls, floors, sidings or insulation? Can you still use drywall (mold resistant) in such a projects?
fucking masks.
Wooow que genial ❤
This series was excellent and I am thankful you have shared it. It would be good to hear why Mr. Freeman (?) Decided on Vulcan (?) He seems to have done his research and it would be interesting to hear what his criteria for a decision was
As a former builder I assume his criteria was preventing and managing risk. That interview was at his guest house in boquete 👍🏼
Are termites an issue there?
Everywhere 😅
Yes and there are other pests like small tuneling bugs. Timber needs to be treated. But the biggest issue is the lack of skilled labor wich can make this kind of construction really expensive.
Los anuncios son los que pagan, mas que nada.
Correcto!!
not only Panama but all of the tropics. even all of Mexico builds that way. they need to be strong enough to withstand hurricanes.
Here we do it because of traditions. We just had 1 hurricane in the last 150 years 💪🏼 🌪️
Not true, mud homes are common in the Mexican countryside and highly long-lasting when build properly
