The music "The Artisan Way" was written and performed for my channel by my son, Barret. His channel is here / insanedrummer89 Barret writes most of the music for our channel. Thanks son!
Hey Tony, my client is using your design to build his own roof span and brought up the possibility of these being picked up in a heavy wind storm. We have a lot of containers all over the country and I've never seen one move an inch in a storm but you bring up a good point. We decided to install dovetail twistlocks into the concrete forms located at the base of each corner casting just to be safe.
It might be easier to install them after the concrete is poured and the containers set, using expansion anchors. This avoids minor differences with containers or concrete guys who can't read tapes :)
Great video. Thank you. I am considering a container home in Florida.
I'm beginning a 40-foot container build in Central Florida passed the considering stage lol what part of Florida are you in?
Can post a video how to put a flat roof floor over 45 by 45 foot container. I want to use the second floor also.
Thanks for the video Tony, I wasn't sure i would find any videos about adding a roof between 2 conexs but dam, your video is more then I expected. I bought a new laptop just for sketchup so I guess its time to finally download and figure out how to use it.. anyway thanks again..
Thanks! Sorry I missed your comment before :)
Any specific information on welding the 1/8" thick steel plate to the steel container wall?
An idea I had for creating a shop out of two containers similar to this was to weld two vertical plates along the top for each roof section and put a bolt or bolts through them, sandwiching the wood beam between the metal plates. This would probably be less convenient if I was going to put tin around the outside, but I would think that would be plenty strong, wouldn't it?
Thanks for sharing this, great video. In most cases, I would assume you would need a building permit for this, and I hear a lot of townships are not keen on approving these simply cause they are not familiar with the container buidlings, but I am going to try anyways. Thanks.
Don't call it a container building. Call it a steel structure and they are usually much easier to work with.
How much would it be to get printed off blueprints for your design?
You can find my contact info in the video description. Thanks!
Is There anyway to contact this guy ?
Me? Atdrafting.com :)
Can i hire you to draw me up something very similar to the Lazlo U shaped?
Yes, please contact me at atdrafting.com Thanks!
Hi Tony, Im interested in the plans for the 2 20ft shipping containers, how do i get ahold of you?
There is a form on atdrafting.com. Thanks!
If I wanted a higher roof space between the containers for motor home storage, can that be done, with a higher pitch roof for solar panels and snow load. Thanks
It's cheaper to stick frame an actual garage
I would drill hole through the shipping container's metal roof and screw directly into the trust. hell with all that welding.
Just fastening is not the issue. The issue is also resisting lateral forces and that is what the steel straps help with. Have you ever seen the top of a shipping contained?
In my case, the shipping containers are welded to the foundation piers to deal with bottom lateral shear and the top shear load is braced by two interior shear walls. The wind loads are factored in. No welding just a few bolts and screws. I know every case varies so good luck with your project. I just have 35 years of high rise construction under my belt what the hell would I know...

@@MarcusSherwood I started in 1978, do it however you like. If you have that much experience, you should know shipping containers were designed for shipping cheap Chinese products from China lol.
What screws can I use for the container,m
What would the trusses look like with a larger span, like 40 feet span. I have two 40 foot containers lined up like you do in this video, but cannot figure out a reasonable truss system for a larger span. What would be ideal with space not an issue.
The truss manufacturer engineers the trusses based on the span, local roof loads, wind, etc. Al you have to do is tell them the span. I have done (drawn and built) 40' spans before with no problem. The mfr will also provide a bracing plan with the truss drawings. All you have to do is build the proper structure to hold them up :) and attach them with rafter ties/hurricane ties to the beam or wall. I you google truss manufacturer or your local area you should have one you can call and provide them the drawings I can do for you :)
Hey Tony, I really enjoy your videos and I wanted to know what a ballpark price would be for you to do a project like this using two 40’HC with 6 feet of space between the 2 containers. Thank you. Have a blessed day!
Is there any way you could help design me a project I’m looking to build something similar to that but a little bigger
You can contact me at atdrafting.com thanks
👍👍
Can we get a copy of those plans
You can contact me at atdrafting.com thanks
In Florida, does the Building Code require a hurricane strap from the roof to the foundation?
I assume you do plans for folks. Interested in this exact project. Will be a barn, not human inhabited
yes you can visit atdrafting.com to send request for service. Thanks!
A metal roof would great and good if you then mounted solar panels on the roof.
yes, good idea!
@@ArtisanTony Yes if I get that cabin built the roof will be metal.
@@RJM1011 I have put that 26 ga r-panel on the last 3 houses i built for myself. i like it much :)
what dimenstion if you want the roof higher to taller on your picture and how much did you think the cost for that?.
That is a service I provide at atdrafting.com. Thanks
@@ArtisanTony thank you
Hey Tony, I love this drawing great job, do you have an email I can reach you at ?
Thanks! You can reach me here atdrafting.com/request-for-service i prefer not to put my email in a comment :)
I really respect your loyalty to your clients but it's only a roof so what you're saying really makes no sense, but to each his own.
Mogul... overall nice build two thumbs up 👍
Hi Tony do you have a email address please.
I have a contact form at atdrafting.com thanks
