Modern House Part 3- Main floor steel & frame front porch
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- This episode sees the completion of the main floor steel as well as framing the front porch to create material storage on a tight job site. The video was made from one week of footage shot Monday through Friday. The crane was the last part of the day on Friday thanks to a cancellation and it came a couple hours sooner than I was expecting it, so I wasn’t able to plan shots or even move the camera around much to capture it. Hopefully the time lapse will tell enough of a story.

The younger generation should watch those videos. This man is a exemple of what dedication to your work, should be. On the other hand, the only thing I don't agree with, is that he works alone on this very demanding and dangerous type of work. Bravo sir! 🇨🇦
I guess it is not his first rodeo! :) ca
The dude is surgical with the forklift. Not only am I exhausted before the end of each episode but I also feel so inadequate. Thanks man.
I find it amazing he can do all this by himself.
I'm not sure what's more amazing: the fact that you cut 26mil plate effortlessly with a circular saw, or your work ethic.
It's your work ethic. Holy moly.
Yeah those saws are a total game changer. You can buy those blades to fit any Skil saw but it’s the speed that the blade turns that’s crucial and for the metal cutting one it’s much slower.
@@ShredPile The other big thing is that those specialist saws are designed to contain all the chips, which is awesome if you are working inside.... They're not that expensive either, about $450, at least for the Makita one.
Yeah, that’s a huge plus as well. The one I’m using, which is the skil SPT78MMC I think slightly more than 300 I think. I’ve used three or four of them in the last 10 years and the amount of work they’ve done is just staggering
I have designed and watched the construction of dozens of high-rise mixed use hotel and office buildings, multi-story apartment buildings, wood, steel, concrete, and post-pensioned concrete, etc. Architect. Your can-do and know how, and anticipation of sequence and install are just amazing. You get an A+ in Fork Lift and Site logistics and "doesn't give up". This is quickly becoming one of my most "can't wait for" next episodes. Thank You for posting your work!
Damn man, that made me feel good. Thank you.
I'd work my butt off for this guy. This is how it's done. No half-assin'...just hard work and gettin' it done. Love this! Kudos to you, brother!
thanks man!
Can’t help thinking that having someone else would make the whole process more efficient..😮 like putting the girder on in the right place rather than having to drag it after placing it ‘close’ with forklift!

сделайте ему предложение, от которого он не сможет отказаться
Worked many years reach lift. Skytrak was a game changer. Allowed heavy lifting without outsourcing to crane company. No bad back claims. You are an awesome worker/builder. An inspiration to young men interested in building. Now 79, retired, but watching young fellows working, taking piles of material building, then standing back, looking at project, "WOW, can't believe i did this! It's very satisfying. Great job!😊
Amazing job! Please always keep your videos without background music, the sound of work is the best music for this epic video!
No problem and thanks. I like the tunes on the timelapse clips because there’s no natural sound when you record that way.
The fact you are doing all this buy yourself is awesome, I’ve seen crews of men not do what you are doing, kudos brother great job
Thanks man! I hope you stick around, it’s just starting to get good.
@@ShredPile hell yea I am, can’t wait
New owner is getting his monrys worth.. well designed , , well built..good materials...
Carry on..!
Impressive workflow on a tight site, that takes a lot of planning and experience!
Your forklift ability is superb, my friend. Your forklift is invaluable and I see why you have a couple of them.
You’re very efficient for a one man band. I look forward to seeing you continue with your projects.
Thanks Lloyd! Yeah Igor and Lurch are the backbone of the operation :-)
Massive man,don't let any of the negative comments eat you up even if you were building a small structure out of two by two's, its content that is real not the movies that is fake! That's why i watch utube..i don't even watch the news,ive done steel structures when i was younger, but for you to take on by yourself is just massive and an incredible journey. Love what ya do friend!
Thanks for all that man, appreciate you.
Nice job! One big puzzle for sure!! Look forward to the next post!!
Your forklift handling is quite superb, take that from a guy who makes a living from forklift driving...
😋🤪😍
That house is really a modern thing, bever seen such a puzzle of beams...Oh and I remember working in that weather conditions also, only staying focused on the job like you do helps bearing it...
Thanks a lot for the video series!
👍👍👍
Thanks Horst! quite a compliment:-) I've always envied the precision of the career straight mast guys, especially the ones who have mastered the fourth or other specialty functions. I pay attention when you guys are zooming around!
You sir put the young men to shame be safe and keep going
Thats how you get it done!! Just amazing!
Glad you guys enjoyed it, Thanks for tuning in!
Your modern house will complement the one across the street. ❤️
That ones a peach! Like the house i'm on it too is rear-centric and has a ridiculous view out of the the back leaving just the right combo of austerity and warmth to the street side.
Thanks for tuning in.
I heard you mention PGE and then started looking at the scenery and rain. Hello from a fellow Portlander (unless I’m wrong)! Insane build to be tackling on your own. This inspires me, and at a time and age where the thought of continuing as a solo contractor starts creeping in. You help me know I’ve got it. Thanks!
You're not wrong:-) Can't fake that rain. If you do decide to go solo just remember that you'll always be able to rally other builder pals if you need an extra hand. The upside is that it's way easier to stay busy :-)
@@ShredPile might’ve worded it wrong. I’m 6 years now in the solo business. Couldn’t be happier. Plenty of work in my niches, mostly hardwood decks and art studios. At 37 I’m just starting to bump into the physical wear and tear, etc. Use it or lose it, I guess. Desk would kill me though so maybe I’m just being a baby haha
Oh gotcha, I'm not telling you anything you don't already know then:-) appreciate you tuning in. @@PerkBuilders
fantastic solo work
Мужик киборг.Офигеть.В одного тягать такой груз.Я строил дом,знаю чтт это такое.Респект.А вот этими напоясными сумками до колена,можно зацепиться и навернуться нехило.Удачи.
Спасибо за добрые слова и за предостережения. Часто я беру молоток и несу его, чтобы он не споткнулся :-) Спасибо за просмотр видео!
I'm watching from Russia.You have the magic touch.👏💪
Thanks for that:-)
Appreciate your work ethic and the quality of the job! Somebody else may have already said this and I realize I’m watching these videos weeks behind but it might save time and effort to rig the steel using a chainfall or come along from the forks. That way you can precisely set it while upon ladder rather than just trying bump the hydraulics and running up and down the ladder. Just a suggestion for the future.
Noted John, thanks. I have done that with smaller beams in the past but sometimes I'm relying more on the friction of either the forklift or one end being down to give me the english I need to make something happen. I appreciate you tuning in and i"m glad you found the series!
Man, I'm fascinated by construction work like this. Unfortunately, I know as much about building, as a scruffy nerfhearder knows about being a princess! I have so many questions though... and I guess it couldn't hurt to ask. So here's a few questions :
- I see wood getting wet and my inexperienced mind goes "welp, there goes that piece!". Obviously that's not the case, but how long can wood stay out in the rain before things go south?
- How are you doing this all on your own? Wouldn't you go twice as fast with Pedro, or the neighbors grandson lending a helping hand? (eh, this question is more jealousy, as I'd like to be there nailing and learning, I suppose).
- Did I miss the vid where the concrete got poured, or did you come in to this job after that was done?
- Are the beams pre-drilled?
I've got a million more, but ill leave it there.
Keep up the kick ass work!
Hey man, thanks for watching, I'll try my best here to answer some questions for you.
-Wood does get wet in this part of the country. I do not use OSB products other than the floor joists for that reason, The upgraded 1-1/8" plywood floor is used specifically because of the open time of the house during construction. The rest of the wood not including the PT is kiln dried or steam dried so the weather really doesn't affect it.
- I work solo 95% of the time so I'm extremely accustomed to dragging all my crap around to where I need it when I need it. Could I hire someone? -yes. Do I want to? -no. I have enough equipment and a good enough system in place that the jobs get done in a timely fashion.
It's tough to explain sometimes to an audience that is used to instagram channels blasting out fast paced highlight reels of pattern work houses going together at warp factor nine just what a detailed and involved build this one really is. The industry pros that are keeping tabs on it know exactly what the score is here so I try to show some of those details so they can suffer along with me :-) (none of that is said in a mean or sour sort of way, I do appreciate your comments) I will also say no where have I ever promoted the fact that I work alone as a hook to draw views, I am really only in my 3rd month of posting stuff here and do not consider myself a youtuber but rather a construction guy just doing his thing that decided to turn the camera on. I really didn't even think that it would be such an apparent oddity. There are a few guys out there that are solo framers that are absolute rockstars at what they do and although I don't follow any of them I have watched and have massive respect for the speed that they work at.
-I did not do this foundation. I'm the framing and steel contractor on this project.
-The beams are not predrilled, that's all me and part of the fabrication process. I think theres' a good segment on how I do that at the start of the second video in this series and there will be more of it shown including some elapsed time to better gauge progress. We've had a pretty sever weather incident over the last few weeks so i'm working steel off-site as power has been out at the job and the roads were iced over going in there.
Anyway, I hope you stick around to watch the rest as I put it all together.
-jake
@@ShredPile Thanks for the thoughtful and detailed reply. Means a lot and made perfect sense. I watch a bunch of YT build channels (Texas Best out of TX, Perkin Bros in NC for ex) and they’re all team builders. I’ve never seen a solo builder before that handled this scale of work, and you’re cutting your own way here on YT.
My only advice- the pros like you never mind hearing you repeating why you do what you’re doing, but that info is invaluable to folks like me who don’t know their @ss from their elbow... so make believe you’re videoing for a 5 yr old and explain as much as possible.
I know it’s a bit more tedious, but I’d surely appreciate it and I think it only adds to the already stellar quality you’re obviously known for. Also, recapping where you’re at in the build would be enormous for dumdums like me to get a sense of what’s what (“remember... right here‘s the driveway, and where I’m standing will end up being the porch, and eventually that over there will be...”).
Either way, thanks again, appreciate you taking the time and I look forward to more. I’m an instant fan!
🙌🏼
not many like this man.... increible
Awesome Job!!
I see really cool stuff like this, then almost every time I see like, another house 50 feet away. I would never put that much effort into a place that had neighbors that close. Unless that's your other house, I don't know.
I know what you mean and I live pretty rural myself but despite that I have to say that this house is pretty unique in that the focus of the layout is completely out the back of the house and into the woods. It's a really unique older neighborhood and honestly, if I had to live in town it wouldn't bother me to live here. Thanks for tuning in
You should watch it again, because you missed the part when he did all effortlessly 🙂
Just incredible seeing you methodically work through this build alone in all kinds of weather. Have you given us any background on the project?
Thanks for that, I guess the biggest explanation would be the description in the first video and somewhat more in the following videos descriptions as well. As you can see it's a new build and I am both the framer and the fabricator. I usually end up doing the interior and exterior handrails and any other miscellaneous welding as well. These projects keep me extremely busy and performing two of the main tasks simultaneously leave slim time to shoot and post videos, I'm not sure I have the bandwidth to better explain the build other than thru the description and short explanations as I film the trickier bits. Perhaps I could add in a rendering of the finished build somewhere , I'll explore ways to make that happen.
I do hope you stay tuned for more as there is some fantastic stuff coming up:-)
@@ShredPile Don’t worry about the filming overhead you’re doing an amazing job on that front considering the speed you’re progressing. I’m in for the duration, you should have 100k subscribers if the algorithm had a clue. One of the best series on youtube currently. I’m a designer who just spent three years doing a modern interior renovation (no steel, but everything overbuilt with LVLs to give me flat walls for finishes)… this kind of build is inspiring. Keep up the great work and look after yourself.
And I forgot to say you sure are surgical with that telehandler.
Thanks for all that, I think I solved the overhead issues though. Super glad to hear you are a fan of the engineered lumber for long or tall walls. It so makes a difference to the finished job. A lot of the time you can't even put your finger on what looks so good and it's really just the absence of texture that is just part of looking at most walls.@@VeloDramatic
@@ShredPile Absence of texture (you said it). That was fundamental to my project. I L5-finished all the walls and the LVLs made new walls easy vs old ones framed with junk dimensional lumber lined with stacks of furring strips. Modern builds with lots of glass and raking light expose all drywall sins. My wife who sheetrocked the main floor with me watched the whole episode last night. She enjoyed it as much as I did!
You put a lot of trust into that pallet wrap/banding 😂 I thought for sure it was going over when you stacked them. Another great video, you could post these unedited and we'd still tune in start to finish.
Calculated risk :-) if it fell over on that side of the truck they could've stayed there all night. It worked out ok in the end.
пила по металлу классная!
👍
this is so awesome
Awesome!...
Ich bin echt sprachlos, mit welcher Genauigkeit hund. Ausdauer du arbeitest bei Wind und Regen, Leiter rauf und runter, in den Steiger und wieder raus.👍👍
Ich freue mich über Ihre netten Worte, ich arbeite gern und es scheint immer viel zu tun zu geben :-)
Por favor los subtítulos para poder entender sus indicaciones. Saludos cordiales para usted de Arica - Chile....
Haré lo mejor que pueda, pero lleva mucho tiempo y sobre todo solo estoy murmurando para mí mismo :-)
¡Gracias por sintonizarnos!
as a builder of custom homes and most of them containing steel, I've never seen an I beam attached with just concrete screws.
It is interesting and have been somewhat anticipating a comment on It.
Before I detail it out I will offer this though, Were the beam being anchored be made out of wood dimensional or engineered be used in the same application it would be rare that it would be anchored with anything but nails and no one would think anything of it at all. At most a tin clip or nail plate but that would be it.
I think it's a pretty easy misconception and one I'm guilty of myself that the use of steel automatically makes something a skyscraper and it's just not true, some of the beams are basically captured in place and are only used to meet deflection requirements so a Titen is more than adequate.
Also, I will add that not all of them are screwed down and I did not include footage of all of the ones that sat over poured in place bolts(many of them did). As a point of interest for you as a builder I will also add that the 4 bolts in the main pillar connection at the carport travel all they way up through 17'+/- of 16" thick wall from where they are imbedded 18" into a 3' thick footing :-)
From my standpoint putting weld plates directly into the foundation would cut my time on task by 90%. Using titens is the slowest way possible requiring the greatest degree of precison out of any other option.
Thanks for the comments and for tuning in I hope you continue to keep tabs on the project.
In my area getting out of the machine under load would snag an OSHA fine
Better stay in the machine then! :-)
👍👍👍👍
Are you getting full weld on the connections? Hard to believe someone would put a stamp on this design, few bolts are not enough.
Yeah, It's handled. There is torsion straps as well for the main connections that will show up in a later video.
Thanks for watching.
Why are you working alone if you don't mind me asking. Preference or necessity.
Preference.
Good work I'm a mason and a welder , i search a job
where are you located??
PNW, West of Portland
Where is the helmet?
How come you work alone? Cant get anyone that wants to work? seems hard doing it by yourself
It's much quieter that way:-) I've been working solely alone for at least the last decade maybe longer and have no plans to change it. I have enough equipment to make up for any benefit that a helper could offer. I hope you stick around, It's just starting to get good....
@@ShredPileI understand working alone but boy, is your body going to pay the price, if it hasn’t already. All that up and down, back and forth and wasted energy. Sometimes, you just have to make some trade offs. Take it from a very old man
странно у вас это.с низу дерево которое гниет за 2 года а с верху балка на века?
Вы имеете в виду обработанную под давлением древесину в нижней части стены?
Если так, то все будет в порядке. Здесь так принято. Спасибо за просмотр.
DUDE! Grease that machine.
lol, the brakes? :-)
@@ShredPile You got a ball joint in the front end that is dry..... and don't talk smack to someone who has been working heavy equipment for over 30 years. It will just make everyone realize why you are out on the site alone.
At ease Reed, no one‘s talking smack:-) I assumed he meant because of all the noise there was something squeaking, which is the brakes on this machine , I get it, it is annoyingAF. You were right about the ball joint, but it wasn’t completely dry. There seemed to be plenty of water in it :-) I appreciate you tuning in and I hope you stick around because it gets more fun later….
I'm wondering why someone would want to build such an expensive house in such a dreary place. I've watched several of Jake's videos and have never seen the sun. What's up with that?
Hey you caught me at my computer Wolfgang,
It's perfect here:-) As a native Oregonian I will attest to actually crossing the street to walk in the shade:-) Seriously though I do know many folks who struggle with it here and the answer for most of them is a quick trip over Mt Hood to central Oregon where it is almost always sunny. Thanks for tuning in again.
I missed some of the earlier videos, so I don't know if you went over it already, how about a floor plan? Without that all of us framers are watching you without any idea of what is to come in the future.
I like to see a building going up, and the quality work that goes into it, but I do not like to be held in the dark as to why a particular thing is being done. I think most people that would be interested in your videos will be able to grasp the scope of what you are doing, if they can see some plans.
Haven't shared one yet but will probably put up a rendering of the back of the house somehow. I've been working a little hamstrung by a non-backfilled front on a job with almost zero access up to this point but It was taken care of this week finally. Things should pick up now:-)
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why install structural steel on top of wood? That makes no sense.
Sorry man, I thought I replied to this earlier. Thinking back thru the video the only place where there is a beam on wood is the one that was set closest to the camera during the timelapse. That was as far as the crane could reach and I placed it by hand later the next week. All beams are sitting on 1-1/2x6 flat bar shims to match the height of the PT. maybe you saw a spot where it overlapped somewhere....
@@ShredPile Thanks.
It doesn't look like a house to me, more like a fallout shelter.
Patience….patience…:)
@@ShredPile The walls are made of solid concrete, the ceiling beams are so large that a tank could ride on them. I'm not picking on you and don't get me wrong. I will subscribe to the channel and watch the progress.
No worries, I didn't feel picked on :-) thanks for sticking around.@@bogdank.z
you can't make a video without subtitles, you can't understand what you're saying
