RR Building Post Frame Plans

• It's called a "dead man" because it's buried in the ground.
• Nice that you had the forks to lift the stranded lift, but you also had the lift's leveling feet at your disposal, to lift it up and get something underneath for traction. Just a thought, to work quicker.
• I'm seriously impressed with how efficiently you two work together to accomplish things that most other companies use at least 3-4 people to do. It really speaks to both of your skills and experience to plan these things out so you can do the work with out the extra manpower.
• I haven't seen builds like this done in wood in quite a while, everything is steel nowadays. This is very relaxing to watch you guys work on this, I appreciate how detailed your videos are, and that you explain the steps and the logistical reasons for the steps. It's quite the masterclass. I've done smaller builds myself, but it's comforting to watch you guys prove this kind of build can be done with minimal manpower, if you know how to do it correctly.
A donut in the holster. Greg, you’re a solid rock down to earth individual. And I mean that as a compliment. 👍🏾
I love truss day! My family owned a truss manufacturing plant in the Seattle area for 35-plus years. The biggest span we did was 92 feet for a riding arena. I dealt with lots of contractors and framers who built smart, but you two build expertly!!! 😁🤙
I think Greg is an excellent worker! As a business owner myself, I can apprerciate his dedication to Kyle. They work well together. How old is Greg?
Greg is 13 going on 14. He is advanced for his age and is truly dedicated.
@@TheCoolStuffHD😂 so mean
Kyle saved his life once while choking on a chicken bone, and ever since Greg has been in his debt.
@@TheCoolStuffHD little jealous there boy?
@@dougdiplacido2406 he's just being funny chill
I'm always impressed how only you two guys expertly build these structures. You've developed proven and safe methods to build it straight, quickly and efficiently. Another great job!
You guys rock some framing! Pays to be a perfectionist. Doesn't hurt to have good machines too
Storing the chain in a jug is a great idea. Easy to handle easy to store. Smart.
Currently hospitalized with serious issues and watching you guys sure helps me get by. Give ‘em Hell boys ! Thanks.
Get well soon!
Praying for you 🙏
Sending God speed on your recovery 🙏
Kyle, you and Greg have become my RUclips building Gurus. Sold my log cabin last fall that I built myself and planning a post frame build starting this October. Just love all your detailed content. Keep it coming buddy.
That "angelic hammer" set truss was so satifying to hear slide in place. Very ASMR-like.
another greast day.
love the dedicated camera option.Thanks Kyle, Greg.
You guys are very talented and do amazing work!!!
As a former construction superintendent, I would have loved to have these 2 guys on my site!
Another great vlog, it is always fun to watch you both working together. Its easy to see that you both trust each other when you are working at height. Stay safe
When you asked Greg if he ever carried a Deadman? I would've said yes every day I come to work.. 😂
It amazes me how much just the two of you get done! Love every bit of it! I'm getting ready to install my piers next week if the weather finally cooperates, 60x120x18 post frame man cave!!
You guys are truly professional craftsmen!
Brings back memories of my 20s building pole barns. The company I worked for didn't have any man lifts. We only had a skid loader. Any building over 40 foot wide we hired a local crane company to set trusses. Climbed the building and trusses to put purlins on the trusses. Widest we did was an 80 foot riding arena. Had to nail two trusses together and set them.
Good work on those huge trusses
Really enjoy following along with these. Thanks again.
You make it look easy for just two men to handle and place the trusses in fairls windy conditions. I would hire your firm if you were ever in my area. Great job there's a lot that can go awry during this phase iif the installers are lacking expirence.
Thanks for yet another exiting video. 😁👍
Hey Cole, love all the different camera angles. Keep up the good work
Your professional filming and audio is a pleasure to watch. Props to your guy, I think you said his name was Michael.
You guys videos are always very educational and enjoyable, thanks , great job👍
I think it's the First time I've heard you call Greg 'Grasshopper'. I wonder if he even knows what you're referencing. I'm sure many dont. Ha !
Enjoyed this video , as always !
THX Kyle ......and Grasshopper !
"Truss me, I'm a Doctor..."
🤣
Thx for showing, great work!
👍👍👍
That donut holster was pretty slick
That was awesome Greg!! "Hmm... where can I put this doughnut?" Ah yes! Right there in my tool belt! Awesome!
I had the same thing happen with a rented scissor lift same model as your small one. Dug itself into 57# slate gravel. I ended up purchasing several sheets of plywood to lay on the ground just to be able to use the machine. My 60x42x18 building turned out great thanks to your channel!!
If I had it all over to do again I would dig the holes and build the frame before adding the gravel. Just too much trouble with the wide holes and machine getting stuck. It would be way easier to use the skid loader to bring in the rock later.
Let's see, what keeps me coming back... donut in the tool belt, camera man handing you YOUR forgotten hammer (should have said thanks), "have you ever tried to lift a dead person? It's like impossible", oh and all the great information and the expert builds. I'm building a pole monitor barn and will be using so much of your information. Thanks for the great work!
"I've tried to move my dog when he's sleeping on me at night" ... so much wisdom here, all based in experience! :)
Greg in the nail throwing hall of fame!
Some people call them jacking lugs, but in the end a deadman is named after morbidly trying to pull a dead man out of the earth . The engineering formula is F=uR. Here is a reference on the earliest use of this word from 1858. "a1852 W. T. Spurdens Forby's Vocab. E. Anglia (1858) III. 12 Deadman, a piece of timber buried in the earth, to secure posts, or other timbers by". And then the next reference was 1901. Typically associated with mountaineering and climbing and there often called a t-slot anchor. It is definitely a very old slang term. True story back in 1994 I removed some 20x20 concrete anchors with the top at ground level and 20 ft below ground...they were to 'catch' the space shuttle at an alternate landing site if things went bad, one on each side of the runway. So, each deadman weighed nearly a million pounds. the tie offs were 2 inch steel and went to the bottom of the anchor. We may not know everything, but the engineering part is fun, intriguing, and important to every building.
Y'all are way talented - left handed - over the top nail driving - impressive. Ever consider using hurricane straps for your trusses - particularly the end ones, and perlins? Would allow you to work from the inside as well at times - and would add some certainty/strength. Thanks for the great content. Super impressive.
I am brand new to your channel. It's really interesting to see how the Swiss actually put things together. I hope you'll have a video on all the things you will be taking back to use in the States.
You do need a spreader bar for setting long trusses.
Great content
that camera on your shoulder reminded me of those demons in the game Doom that shoot rockets off their shoulder.
Wow ! That kubota is really sun faded. It's time for a new one.
Excelente trabajo saludos 👍👌⚒️💪
" ... he's going to use the power of leverage and friendship to get it right where we want it on our line..." LOL
@31:16 ....'and then Greg is going to twist this for me, he is going to use the power of leverage and friendship to get it right where we want it on our line'.....
A "Deadman Anchor" is just that. An anchor that is buried in the ground. It is used for mountaineering, off-road recovery, construction and the list goes on.
You guys should invest in some of those impact powered binders. They're so nice to use.
Tbh I don't always watch your videos for the knowledge you bring about post frames. Sometimes I just watch so you can give greg a hard time. Nothing like working with the boys all day 👍catches me off guard from how much it makes me laugh
Nice, Greg! Donut pouch!
"Have you ever tried to move a dead person? It's like, it's impossible" hahaha Brilliant
Greg , ever move a dead man… “On advise of counsel, I refuse to answer on the basis that I may incriminate myself”. 😂😂
You do have a deadman switch on your scissor lift, never heard concrete called deadmen, maybe an anchor? Love the work you do though, thanks for sharing your expertise with us.
Nice all around, but @34:50 that's a sweet drone action!
Why wouldn't You use the stabilizer jacks to lift your scizzor lift up out of the potholes? You could throw boards down underneath once your up
I know that with a lot of Scissor and Booms by JLG they have a diff lock switch which you need to have engaged when trying to get out of those stuck sitations.
🏴👍great stuff
If I remember right you have you Truss's made to the job. Could the place that makes your trusses put in an extra board to give you a center point to pick up from? Saving time from having to strap everyone of them... maybe.
oh man this is very cool, I'm a steel structure builder. unfortunately we have
now such structures are not made of wood (
Have you ever tried using a palm nailer on those big ring shank nails? Wonder if someone makes an air hammer strong enough.
If you get a chance could you do a detail of how the post/truss with the ears of the post being taller than the truss work out with the perlins and eaves to all level out?
All the best thanks for all the vids!
I have always wondered about the purlins overlapping and how the holes in the roof steel would need to be offset purloin to purlin. Can you explain how this is handled? Thanks!
"IT'S A DEADMAN CAUSE IT'S BURIED IN THE GROUND", I literally screamed at my phone
In the beginning, this dude Kyle said mega deck and “little scissor lift” 😂😭😭 most of us drive 2 person lifts 😂
Hey! I have a quick question. With the Perlins over lapping on each truss, if you don’t put wood sheeting on doesn’t that mess with your screw line on the metal?
"If a guy would have brought his hammer", enter Thing 🖐with the hammer. 😆 16:36
the go pro on the shoulder is cool. try a head mount
Are you having a problem with the lift? JLG is probably the best made one out there. For a low budget lift the 26MRT or the 260MRT ane worth the money.
No Kyle I have never tried to move a dead person before 😂
Wonder if they make Mattracks that would fit the scissor lift.
chocker is 1/2 stength having them lifted from two spots is 1/2 as well so 4x the load
Nice and strong construction. can you please tell me how thick are the wood columns. and how much weight they can hold between one another, from 4 meters apart. thanks Tony Domenech from Dominican Republic.
Ah! The all-important donut pocket on your bags!
For future if you get stuck use the 4 level legs press down to take weight of tires then u can stick wood under the tires we get stuck all the time in mud
I thought the exact way as you. They say "Great minds think alike"!!
I love the channel because of the detailed explanations y'all give and the back and forth between you and Greg.
Kyle, what brand of hammer do you use, and do you have any recommendations for me? I currently use either my Estwing 20 oz AL-Pro Hammer or my ToughBuilt Shock Stop 20 oz. Steel Rip Hammer- with a Milled Face.
I'm a DIYer Handyman and Woodworker. I build small woodworking projects around the house. I have just completed my freestanding (32sqft x 26sqft) 3-car garage/ woodworking shop with electricity, water, and sewer. I owe all the props to you and the other RUclips providers for giving me the knowledge and confidence to undertake this size project.
He uses a Martinez hammer. Expensive but great product, completely customizable as well.
Hi Kyle & Greg, Constantly great informative content, love it! At about 21 min mark you mention 60 P ring shank nails for the perlins.. Why oil quenched?
Hardened most likely
The nice thing about the yellow Kevlar straps is they have a red thread. If you see the red thread, you throw it away. Simple.
FYI when you choke a sling you usually end up with 70% of the rated SWL.
Greg loves his donuts
You guys are awesome! And you are going to build my barn.
Do you use your Tilt deck and GMC 3500 to pull your Telehandler???
Amazing work, truly great being able to absorb so much information from your videos! You and Greg are the perfect duo
Perhaps it is related to the 'dead man switch', the tool turns off before the guy is dead?
6:54 Greg’s LASER FOCUS
I'd definitely use structural screws, if only for the reason that there's no way I can hammer for that long.
Deadman maybe cause it's buried in the ground?
Screw baby screw! My elbow and shoulders hurt watching this.
With the purlins offset, when you punch your steel how are keeping track of it all?
How often do you genuinely inspect (cuts, abrasions, damage, etc.) and/or replace those overhead slings?
I've been a Ironworker and a carpenter and so many guys don't check their rigging daily if used that day and if needed I would use softeners we call them ( a rag , glove what I keep in my tool box are couple pairs of 4 x6 rubber belting
Kyle really hating on the small scissor lift this entire video 😂
Saludos cordiales desde Chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🕴️🖐️
I have my 50' trusses on order. Can I use a T190 Bobcat to lift them up. Sidewalls 16' x 48' wide. 1' foot overhang.
Harness on the scissor lift? Particularly if you're climbing out of the machine.
Show time 😊😊😊
Where do you buy your trusses from? And can I use this pier foundation with 4” slab for my residential house build?
Why don’t you use the screw type chain binders for some added adjustability?
Your videos have been very informative. A friend will be constructing a barndominium using the pole barn concept and I am curious about the process. You work very efficiently and make it look easy. Question: why do you use nails instead of screws/lags?
Lol, safety first when riding a loft. But we're is your harness when working out of the lift. Just an Ironworkers opinion.
Don't know what kind of influence you have with the site prep, grading people, but they could do things a little better and different and make your work easier and safer. Seems pretty important to have influence and a checklist here.
If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball. If you can climb a ladder, you can climb a stub wall.
Now that's funny, I don't care how tight ya undies are twisted, this IS funny
a1852 W. T. Spurdens Forby's Vocab. E. Anglia (1858) III. 12 Deadman, a piece of timber buried in the earth, to secure posts, or other timbers by.
As mike Rowe says, it’s safety third
Great work gentlemen! My question is at 19:43, I noticed the "dead man" chain is very close the the bottom of the truss....was this planned right from the word go when you were digging your dead man holes and placing the rebar or is it just coincidental? If it was planned, I am THOROUGHLY IMPRESSED!! 👍
I work for a Morton Buildings so can't speak to what Kyle does but I doubt he does the math to figure out where to dig his deadmen so the chain miss the trusses. If they do end up running right through the bottom cord of the truss, you can just put in on top or below and it'll be fine even with a bit of tension on the wood. Usually I put them in line with the 3rd post in from endwall and then every 24-30 feet after that. Always in line with the trusses so that I can use the same deadman for a cross chain ("X" chain) as well.
Never replaced it 😂 It looked like the only clean part in there.
I have question
Why don’t you use the permacolumn columns instead of OT ?
If you have answered before, I didn’t catch it.
I am about to start a
46’x 112’ x 12’
I am researching for
Brackets and columns.
Nice job looking good I always see it but can catch on life video, I enjoyed all of you then, not of my business just an opinion could be nice Ifs get an other hand at least to setup the trusses should be quick and free stress, come build me one when getting cut off 👍🏻
Have you tried a Milwaukee battery framing gun yet? I have been thinking of buying one for an upcoming job but am unsure between that and paslode.
they are heavy!
