- In this video, we're going to dive deep into the world of residential footings. We will look into: Stiffened raft slab, basic slab on ground, waffle pod slab, stiffened slab with deep edge beam, sub floor and pad footing. We will also look into bored piers, screw piers and basement walls.

Very well explained brother. Keep doing the best work.
Thanks mate. Appreciate the support
Great video very informative and simple to understand and learn. Keep it up. Enjoyed learning also saves me having to do a course 😎🤣👍🏾. Subscribed
haha thanks for the feedback :)
very informative, keep it up mate.
Thanks for the support Deepak
on 3:21s. Are those angles replacement to bar chairs? how do they're called?
I've seen they call it continuous bar chairs. It looks easier to install
Your videos are very educational, thankyou! Can I request something? I'd like to know how you would go about Besser Block (or cinder block) piers/pad construction for 6m x 3m shipping container around 400mm off the ground - say at the beach for example. What factors would you take into account and how would they help determine the size/depth of the concrete pad to lay the blocks on. I'm trying to convince hubby we could do this ourselves but a video would certainly help get his head around it :)
The container houses I've done before were designed as habitable buildings, so I had a soil test to base my calculations off. Coastal areas experience high wind loads, so I would be careful with that. Make sure the container is well attached to the blocks and the blocks connected to the pads. The pads should be able to resist uplift and overturning.
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus well, you didn't say besser blocks are not allowed, so that's a good start. This is a common request for the Moreton Bay Islands and soil types are mostly class P. So, if you did a video on it, I can direct a few hundred land owners from our group here to watch :)
The soil test says 'moist to firm soil' is more than 800 deep / 100KPa is at 900 - footings that deep would make a container house unaffordable for most. 100 : silty sand. 200 : Moist loose brown. 300 : silty clay... and so on. The containers most are looking at are office donga style with a truss sheeted roof. I'm told 25KPa is adequate, but how that figure relates to the footings & size/depth of pads is over my head
@@bengthebrazilianengineerinAus thanks for replying btw :) :)
i just thought to add why i think a besser block demo (specifically) would be helpful. Many are advised to use steel piers for these type of prefabs but - aside of being more expensive - they concentrate the weight into the center of the pad. Whereas, in my imagination, it seems besser blocks distribute the weight across the pad more evenly. Also, again in my imagination, it only costs a few dollars to add extra rebar inside the blocks for uplift strength. My experience with structural engineering is limited to single course at Uni while studying my degree in software engineering, so what i imagine and what is real may be 2 different things lol
Sir do you earn 170k dollars a year as an engineer in Australia? Plz reply. Thanks a lot.
60k in aus
