    Everyone thinks they want to live in a place where there are no building codes. Many think thins means that literally they can do or build whatever the heck they want. There are rumors that living off grid is illegal. Truth of the matter is, “no building codes” isn’t as glamorous as it may sound, but there are some great aspects to areas that have no building codes which is why we’ve decided to build in such a place. Watch the full video to see the pros and cons of no building codes (or permits) from our perspective and experience.

    Eric is a real PRO! Excellent technique using the circular saw to make a cove cut in the foam. They are very lucky to have him on the pour!

    Very,very lucky to have that help. Those two are worth their weight in gold. That guy has got skills and killer tools. That lady is kind and patient. Y'all remember the water tank work! Seems like a distant memory now!

    @richardbrooks3569 7 лет назад +11

    You two are the hardest working couple I have ever seen. You have accomplished great things. The couple who has helped you for the last few days have been really busting their asses as well. I am looking forward to the pour.

  • @kenschinkel1499
    @kenschinkel1499 7 лет назад +12

    The amount of work that the four of you did in one day was pretty impressive. You two owe then a great deal. I don't know who the other guy is but he seems to have a wealth of knowledge. Having someone like him helping is better than any internet or youtube video could ever provide. Keep you the great work.

    This is a great way to start your day 5AM and I get to see a young couple living their dream. In this strange world we live in you two are doing something that very few people have the guts to undertake. I read the trolls and cant believe that they are so hurtful and rude. Keep up the good work, learn from your mistakes, enjoy and celebrate your victories. Looking forward to seeing you complete your project.

      Having Eric and Terry come and help you at this point was great. Having a professional who knows the ins and outs of your situation has great value. I personally thank you both for coming all the way from Missouri to share your expertise and hard work. If one wonders why I would thank them its because they are awesome people.

    • @boat6868
      @boat6868 7 лет назад +1

      I agree. I think this would have been an October pour is these two "helpers" had not arrived. If this doesn't show them the value of having someone with experience on the job site, at least periodically, nothing will. If I was Jesse the first thing I would be doing after these guys left would be looking for an experienced construction foremen who wanted to do some moonlighting.

    Thanks for the great videos, I enjoy watching. FYI, to help determine Radiant layouts, I always lay them out with drawings first before actual installations. They will vary and need some slight adjustments but it's pretty close to the drawing.

    By tying the radiant lines to the rebar you will not have dead zones, even if technically you do. Because, the rebar itself will conduct the heat throughout the slab.

    Hi, I'm a concrete worker up here in Canada, and we pour large garages/ basements all the time. Just wondering why you didn't use wire mesh instead of rebar would have saved light years of time, and probably would have been cheaper! Just wondering why, but keep up the good work!!

    • @TheRealXesc
      @TheRealXesc 7 лет назад +1

      He probably meant the mesh made of rebar - they are already welded together in large grids, and come in various sizes, like 8x8 feet, in 1 foot spacings.

    • @TheRealXesc
      @TheRealXesc 7 лет назад

      Well, apparently you didn't... And 10 kgs/m² isn't that bad.

    • @redyserve
      @redyserve 7 лет назад

      You can get rebar grid in .5" on 12" spacing. It's not lite but, thy make.

    • @butopiatoo
      @butopiatoo 7 лет назад

      Corey Roca another vote for rebar here. Cheap bulletproof in my book.

    • @coreyroca4295
      @coreyroca4295 7 лет назад +4

      No I meant actual wire mesh, no pre welded grids. You can get a thick enough wire mesh, and I guarantee it will do the same exact job as the rebar.... Not sure how the winters are where they are building, but I guarantee they probably aren't as bad as they are up here. so with that being said, the concrete will experience very little movement, thus making the wire mesh the perfect solution to prevent cracks. But as some of you are stating how money isn't a big worry, I could see why they went with the more expensive choice. P.s. Been working in the concrete industry for 30 some odd years now, and no matter how many precautions you take, concrete will always eventually crack! Sometimes do to a slightly improper mix, low spots etc. Well love reading all of your guys opinions on the subject, and thanks for reading!!

    To get a greater strength from the smaller zip ties, wrap the tie around the rebar, or whatever work piece, twice before you secure the tie. This will greatly increase the strength of the zip ties.

    You can't change the layout or design of the original layout or you'll get hot and cold spots in your floor system with improper Heating. The outbound and inbound lines needed to be next to each other and alternate across the floor. This was one item you cannot just arbitrarily change. It had to be done according to the specifications

    If that slab is going to be heated it needs to have an expansion gap around the edge

      They have engineered plans, I am sure the thought about thermal expansion.

      Daniel Rose thought about it... and did nothing

      It can't have a gap. The design requires the floor be poured directly against the concrete walls to prevent the hillside from pushing the bottom of the wall in. That's why they cut off the bottom of the ICF foam.

      Mister510 I understand why they went up to the IFC wall. If they have not allowed for exspansion and contraction of that floor then they have made a design error.

      In their case, they should have poured the slab and then put down the insulation, plastic barrier ontop, put down the heating pipes and poured a 2inch screed incorporating the pipes. Around the edge of the screed a 2inch high foam expansion pad to allow for expansion.
