I can't tell if you're serious or not. 5-storey wood-framed buildings are very common. This one is only 4 stories of wood-framing on a concrete first floor, or a "4-over-1". They're commonly built with up to 5 storeys of wood-framing on a concrete first floor, making 6 floors overall (called a "5-over-1").
@@samuelpo3378 theres a japanese temple thats 800 yo and made of wood, so it depends on the build quality, this wont last more than a 150 years since thats fire retardant wood, there too any metal nails and reinforced concrete, metal its the enemy of building lating long since it rust and breaks things, concrete expands and crack and wood too
I wonder how much power the US could save building their houses with adequate insulation. In my region, we have much higher temp summers, but don't need AC, and here are completely new apartments that rely on AC to keep them cool, rather than using thicker walls and 3 pane windows.
@John Doe Because other countries have a lot to build top, but they do it HQ? And what do you mean by "you pay so you use it"? So homeowners must build AC into their homes?
you live in over 140 degree Fahrenheit 60 degrees Celsius in the summer with no ac!! That’s insane!!!! We can’t even open a door without waiting an hour for house to cool off!
@@jkeelsnc you know your shit. It's crazy how many of these wooden buildings are being built. What is the lifespan? Watched a video where these modern wooden American homes are only ment to last 30 years. These 5 over one buildings will have major issues in a few years
here in my town by the river there two large building like this since 2 years now they are still building look like next year done build. it a condo building . four floors building
I also drew attention to it. Construction like 200 years ago in Europe. As I looked at the skeleton of the structure, I remembered a fairy tale about three pigs ...
In this stick-built house, you can probably hear someone walking or sneezing on the first floor on the fourth floor. In my opinion, the frame type is the worst option for a 4 story apartment building. It is the cheapest and most unreliable construction option, but for sure for a lot of money. And of course you will be lied to about the fact that this house is eco-friendly.
Bad choice. Noisy, Dangerous for fire and a tornado will blow this away in a minute. The isolation is bad. Walls are very thin. Concrete is mutch stronger
It’s not really the architect’s fault, because this is cheaper than building with more insulation or with sturdier materials. Blame the system that incentivizes taking the cheapest option instead of the most efficient or safest options
I've lived in wood apartments that are incredibly quiet. Well insulated wall and a fiber concete layer between floors. Just because it's wood does not mean it's loud. I've been in concete buildings that were a disaster for hallway -> apartment acoustics. Poor design is poor design.
Most 4-5 story apartments complexes built in the last 30-40 years are framed with lumber. The lumber is typically sustainably harvested from tree farms. It is a good and cost effective material - although over the part 12-14 months lumber prices have skyrocketed. If the same apartment units were built out of concrete or steel you'd easily add 30% to the cost of the unit.
Yes, here, too. Concrete and bricks and triple glass insulation windows. And prefabricated framework. Seems they have no problems with heat, cold, fire, humidity and noise.
OMG. Please people in America refuse to live in such knock offs housing.. It's utterly mind-blowing you are living in wooden thin crap like this.. In other parts of the world this is not considered a house, housing. Build from bricks and concrete. Your loving standards will improve tenfold. This is a scam. Take care my friends
What an awesome video. It's mind blowing when you think how much stuff humans have constructed.

Greater initial cost scares them away. Most buildings aren’t really made to last that long

I dont think those were AC, i think some type of ventilation fan
All the plywood and matchstick framing will make a nice and warm fire

Wow .. Great job amazing time lapse!! how many photos an hour was needed for this? Whats the frame rate even?
Looking at the way the shadows move I would say each day was 3 seconds. At 30 fps that's 90 frames/day (8 hours) or ~10 frames/hour.
What was the actual time of the lapse lol like how long did this all take it would’ve been nice to see that included in the video
really enjoyed this. thanks
Deadly!

I'd guess about a year all in all

How many trees were used for this.why not used concreet to bild these apartments. Stronger and cheaper.
sustainable harvested wood is used for clt, plus concrete is not environment friendly, built in shorter time frame and it is better for earthquake.
@Li Zhang nope not necessarily

I'll bet those apartments are super noisy. If only the architect had to live in one.
It’s not really the architect’s fault, because this is cheaper than building with more insulation or with sturdier materials. Blame the system that incentivizes taking the cheapest option instead of the most efficient or safest options

What kind of apartment building is made with wood ? I understand a small 1 family home being made with wood, but an apartment complex ?! Cmon

Learn about construction before making such judging criticisms
Do u hear any buildings made from wood collapsed? No, shut up
@@timpula9984 it’s a good material but i really think that each floor and dividing wall should have insulation between them to limit noise transfer.

Isn't the wood considered non-combustible though?
