- Rolling on this week with lots of crane time setting wood and steel beams. One of the more satisfying parts of the job for me even when unforced errors cost me time towards personal goals. It's all part of the job in the end and there is still satisfaction to be found in digging yourself out sometimes. Thanks as always for tuning in and if you are new here then I hope you stick around:-)

Possibly the most mesmerizing video I have seen, is that you work this huge house all on your own, and move at such speed...and you speak french too!
Lol, all french credit goes to the google box!
Thanks for everything else though:-)
I just feel that if someone feels they can better express themselves in their own language then It is polite to reply in it and it's simple enough to do.
It's just incredible to watch this modern home go up with one man doing the lion's share of the work... like 99.9% of it... with no other extra set of hands than a crane. I don't know how you do it... or I wouldn't if you weren't showing us. Seriously... with as much as it rains there and all those incredibly heavy steel beams... there ought to be a category in the Guinness Book you know? Thanks for sharing this with us. I only just ran into your channel here on this build, but I'm going to have to go to your home page and see if you've uploaded other projects. Just incredible!
Thanks for all that Tyler!. I really only been posting seriously for four months now and this series has taken up more than half of that. There is a couple other two-part unfinished series on the channel that have done well that you might enjoy. They’re more personal projects rather than work work but the channel is just gonna be a blend of that.
I have to say Jake the quality of this build speaking as a builder insight amazing this house will remain standing for many a year Godspeed be safe
Thanks for that Robert! Will do:-)
Slow, deliberate and steady results. It is always inspiring to watch you work, Jake. Thank you for yet another great display of skills and focus.
Thanks for sticking with the series and it's good to see you again!
That house is SOLID! You are a master of your craft. Your ingenuity is off the charts!
Good to see you here again, Thanks:-)
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
It looks like you build this house already 10times…. Incredible.
Great to see it coming together week by week. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing 💥👍
Good to see you here again:-)
Love the buildand your videos
Hey thanks! I appreciate that.
You can’t catch a break with the damn RAIN!☔️
It's been a wet one:-) The few good days have been treasures though!
Great save on the Tabitis :) The build is coming along nicely! Good to see the sun out for the second half of this video
Thanks Paul, currently soaking up three days of sun in a row here in realtime:-)
Jake your a one man show keep up the good work ill be following along side from here
Awesome, thanks!
i love seeing this house come together . you are smarter than the average bear , strong as a moose great work wont be long , those trees near by will be leaving out , lived in Portland near 30 years , on the coast now
Thanks Lee!
Jake, have a nice day´s all time...greets from texas
Thanks Klaus!
Good video, angles and music! When I saw the pallet of Simpson hardware on the truck, just made me wish I had some of there stock, pricey stuff. You made short work of repositioning the beam tab! I was a bit nervous...LOL Good job Jake, stay well!!
Lol, i've had that exact same thought over the years myself:-)
Wow jake! Keep up the massive build...2 man wrecking crew! You don't screw around just go to town! My guess is once you have the house dried in it will stop raining! 😂
Thanks for that! You are probably right about the rain, At least we'll have some shade at that point though:-)
There are three mans on site: One with fast legs, one with agile hands and one with deep brain.
@@reinerfranke5436 I know...guys a Beast,and very quick!
All that preparation for installing the steel beams definitely paid off. Glad you noticed you had that last beam on the wrong side of the tab before you did any more work. Would've been a pain in the butt if you had to tear a whole lot more apart than you did to fix it.
Thanks George, Yeah I just happened to sit down there for lunch and saw it right away. There was not going to be any better time to fix it then right then so I did. The sunny day helped ease the pain a little :-)
Jake, how energetic you are! Your Energizer battery never dies... Impressive. I watch your videos every Friday and can't wait what more to come. What about finishing works, are you gonna finish this project by turn key?
Thanks for that! I only do the main structure work and then all the steel hand and guard rails.
You done great work alone
Thank you!
@@ShredPile
You welcome
Increible lo que haces, ademas de solo , dominas un monton de oficios.
gracias por las amables palabras y por ver el vídeo :-)
Any PRO Framer could learn a LOT by watching you work.
Wow world stronger hause ❤from pakistan
today a sunny day, nice...
An unbelievable 3 days in a row this week, stay tuned!
ALWAYS ENJOYABLE WATCHI,NG SOMEONE HOW KNOWNS WHAT HE IS DOING THE WAY YOU DO . CHEERS AND KEEP SAFE
Thank you sir!
Thanks for the crane cam.
There will be more, stand by:)
@@ShredPile I shall.
Salutation du Canada Québec. J'aime beaucoup les vidéos que tu fais. Je dois admettre que je trouverais difficile de travailler dans des conditions météorologiques que vous avez. Quand je pense que depuis le début de cette construction il n'y a eu qu'une seule fois ou il a fait beau. Bonne journée 😊
Je suis heureux que vous ayez trouvé et apprécié la série ! Il y a eu quelques belles journées mais l'hiver a été difficile cette année. Le printemps approche à grands pas :-)
Yesssssss
Sei forte e temerario, lavori bene. Ciao dall ' Italia io ti seguo.
Grazie! Sono felice che tu abbia trovato la serie e che ti piaccia :-)
@@ShredPile grazie a te. Buona giornata.
Many thanks for giving us a deepinsight to the never teached practice. I am 30y in a complete different business of analog integrated IC design. But it will you surprise that mental fitness to oversee all the practice hurdless and tricks and apply them at the right time in your planning is very similar.
Another question. I see that the paper to wood and steel tolerance is one critical issue at assembly. There is weight stiffness and measurement, sometimes ill thinking. But are there some excenter bolts outside. So you bore bigger on one side and adjust the angle of the excenter while tighting?
I think I understand what you are asking here and i'll try to explain, Assuming you are talking about the bolting of the steel we have a small allowance in hole size to allow fit-up of the parts. Sometimes during assembly I will draw two parts together with a bolt which as you describe can leave it in an unbalanced condition. Please don't worry about this, there is an entire process that I undertake to ensure that all bolts are straight thru the tab and flange and are tightened from the nut side with constant even pressure and without the use of an impact tool. So to be clear, every bolt comes back loose to ensure fit and then is tightened to spec. There is no requirement that dictates bolt head direction in relation to the structure or assembly so I usually choose the side that is is most accessible for me to work from.
I would like to add though since I don't provide an explanation in the video that the design is not a stand alone steel structure like a commercial building. The steel structure is bolted together and bears on steel posts on other steel beams but there are large panels of shear walls that infill and add support underneath the beams as well as lots of internal torsion restraint and other drag-strut type connections within the floor envelope that serve to remove focus from the steel connections. For a lot of reasons I choose to assemble this level in this order but I see how it can be misunderstood.
Hopefully I was able to explain this well enough, I appreciate the very intelligent concern and I hope you stick around for the rest of the series:-)
awesome video jake
tell us how you figure out the length of the steel beams
I'll sure try, for the main floor which is all cantilevered I have to use the gridlines provided on the plans to work out the lengths. Many of the gridlines are only dimensioned as parallel to each other despite being at an angleso I have to work out the longer length needed to create the angled beams using maths. I work to either centerlines or exterior dimensions depending on the beam location. Since there is so many different size beams combined I then manually subtract beam centers, flange and web thicknesses as well as overall heights when i''m fabricating to ensure everything fits.
The second level steel is easier as I can lay out and measure directly on the floor as I lay out windows and other elements to ensure everything has room to fit. This simplifies the process. I make a drawing for each beam with notes and almost always forget to write something down and have to go back and double check everything:-) During all this there is actually quite a bit of cross checking going on as I put it all together, If I physically measure an angled beam I will calculate its angled length back to the parallel length that it would've originated from to double check everything remains correct. There is a lot of that part I don't film because it's kinda boring and usually just me walking around muttering to myself and I need my phone for the calculator anyway:-)
Like your work very much but does it only rain there 😮
It seems like it but there are months where we only get 6"or so of rain which is basically a heat wave.....:-)

Just found you subscribed
Awesome Bart, thanks! I appreciate that.
Your welcome I'm a old construction guy framing honestly all phases except concrete hated doing it now retired but anyways thanks for responding and I'll recommend your channel with all the other construction channels I subscribe to
Is the yellow remote control crane rented or is it yours?
The yellow telehandler and the grey crane are both mine. Thanks for tuning in again:-)
@@ShredPile wow that's gotta be expensive, well you're definitely a beast as far as working goes...I'm delighted to watch any vid you post in fact I recently binge watched this entire house build. You normally work all by yourself like this?
Well, it’s not as bad as you think and it really didn’t happen all at once. :-). I do pretty much always work solo, although I team up with a few guys from time to time on certain projects.
I absolutely approve of and thank you for the binge watch, 10 bonus points for correct content usage! :-)
50:22 your version of a trash compactor. 😂
:-)
OK some more dumb questions… why do you use a router on the cut edges of the big wooden beams. Is it just ease of sliding pieces together?? [edit- just worked it out… to avoid welding seams inside girders!!🙄]
There seems to be an awful lot of standing water, does this really not matter?? Do the boards really dry out completely?? Don’t mould spores set in and cause problems years down the line?
You did work it out on both guesses, One is for room the other is for assembly because the edges fluff and swell if they are wet or not when you cut them from unloaded fiber tension. You'll catch me doing cut floor ply seams too to help with wicking and edge swell if you watch close. The house is wet for sure but there is a long open time on the rest of the construction and there's a whole program for air movers and stuff. Not my department tho:-)
Wouldn't another pair of hands be a big help ??
Jake, after watching this whole episode I've come to the conclusion that you could be significantly more time efficient if you just wore a rock climbing harness with a D-Ring on it. Instead of going down a ladder, moving ladder, up ladder, nailing other end of beam, you just hook in to the crane and fly over like Peter Pan. OSHA will hate it, but your viewership on RUclips will skyrocket.
[looks over both shoulders to make sure no one is listening].... done it......not reccomended......... will not repeat......:-) i had to trim a tree so i could swing out over the street. got it done but it wasn't crazy fun like I hoped. used a full on safety harness with rear, between the shoulders D-ring so was basically supermaning it. Would have been way better with a climbing harness. Not worried about OSHA but keep it all under your hat anyway:-)
can't find your other comment but here's an article for the last one I did; www.portraitmagazine.com/59-modern-treehouse
Absolutely stunning! I deleted the other comment because I noticed the sign on the fence during the video and discovered the answer.
"Amazing" to Watch, wondering What Sun-Sign in astrology you are born under? Thank You for Sharing and Angel Blessings.....
I had to go look that up and oddly in literally 9 out of the ten lists that I looked at I am the laziest the list. Dead last.
Yep, got you pegged, Love your sign. @@ShredPile
What is supposed to be modern about this wooden building? The damp wood will mold for years and the steel will rust!
Another negative armchair critic with zero content on his profile.
The steel is painted so how will it rust???
Love the piece of chain for counter balance
I’m not sure what this guy thinks ships are made from, past and present. Maybe wood then steel?
A modern home has clean lines, use of wood and earthly elements, open floor plan… ever heard of Frank Lloyd Wright?🤷🏼♀️
