I'm listening to all of your information, when all of a sudden you're standing in the middle of your awesome shop!! What a beauty! You look so proud, and I can understand why! Can't wait till you're moved in!! Thanks for the video, Channing!
Congratulations on your progress and success, your company is growing and by you documenting it's growth, everyone can enjoy and learn from it as well, thanks for sharing. Javi G.
Not gonna lie, thats a sweet F-ing warehouse!!! Congratulations on comming up in the world! Your workers will be very appreciative of working in a climate controlled environment.
Thanks Dude! We've been working in the dirt for far too long. We're weeks away from being in there full time. Super excited! It'll definitely make us more efficient.
If you chose to not chair up the rebar to center of your 4-6 slab and think you can pull it up as you place concrete, The bar is a waste of time. Fiberglass rebar can only be used to a building height of four floor in concrete, and my understanding is it is NOT TO BE MIXED IN SLABS OR WALLS. I'm a past bridge builder and never put fiberglass bar in any freeway-bridge work, hiway, or runways. If concern, it's expoy coated from supplyer. Ive placed containers on 2ft sq. block post with a 12in SQ by 1/2 nelson studed plates set at top of pour then weld container to plate. Past county code in WA Ive also seen where they laid the contaner on its side and screwed chicken wire on floor joist and shot the foam threw it and the wire protected it and vernin left it alone
I've seen videos where they separate rebar with plastic pieces and I believe they said it's to prevent rust. They also talked about plastic coated rebar. This is the first I've heard of fiberglass coated ones though.
Using steelfibers in concrete is not 'blocked' by old geezers, it just can't replace rebars but what it does it limits cracking but increasing tension capacity more evenly. Also fiberglass rebars are not stronger than steel but it's smart to use them as the most exterior layer since they don't corrode.
With rebar in concrete as long as you don’t burn the surface of the concrete it doesn’t matter what kind of material you use. The rule is to stay two inches away from the bottom top and edges of the pour. And you should keep the tie wire short to prevent it from breaking through and allowing moisture from getting into the rod matt.
Great video! The container house that is pictured in the thumbnail, do you all have plans for that or other renderings. I have a few containers sitting on my property and would love to assemble them like that :)
I really appreciate the thought & quality of your shop floor installation! Thinking about the structure of containers, especially for “temporary” or quick installation, could auger-type supports be installed at the 4 corners to support the container while allowing for an adjustable (& even damper) carriage connection to be bolted into, be used for a level installation above ground? I’m thinking about it for disaster housing & emergency situations where speed & using small & common equipment could get shelter & functional space up quickly in most areas.
Fabulous video Channing the timing is excellent just engineering and planning for a container home in a seismic Zone myself. what a fabulous looking Warehouse congratulations
Between our myself, our engineers, draftsmen, architect, 3D renderer, and film crew, we pretty much use everything. Much of the 3D modelling software is employee preference based on their training/schooling. We can share STEP files or DWGs across platforms. All software has it's pros and cons so it's nice to have a wide range of skills on board.
From the US - a second layer of upper reinforcement (6x6 WWM or what you used, fiberglass rod) was usually added to thick & high PSI slab (8" plus 5-6K psi), prevents surface cracking & exfoliation. Its been 20 years sense I spec'ed floors for industrial bldg's so that prob. changed?
How would you create the 12mm recesses for the castings? Could they be slight wider on all four sides to have a bit extra space? I’m just curious how it would be done
This is impressive and informative! What did all this run? That's a LOT of cement and rebar just to show and educate people the differences!! MUCH appreciated!!!
Was a great opportunity to relate it back to container construction. I'm sure everything (including the land) will be 2.5 - 3 million (CAD) once it's all said and done but the capital expenditure for the business is long overdue. We will be so much more efficient once we're moved in.
Not sure where you are in Canada but where I am we have never worried about or even talked about radon. And spray foam is way more expensive then sheet insulation. For a 40x80 building it was almost $30,000 to spray the floor. We did sheet for under $3500. Also you would have to load an extreme amount of weight on the end of a container to get it to bend. We have dropped loaded ones and never had them bend
Home Depot is $4.50/sq ft for 2" (retail). This does not include delivery, handling, or labour. www.homedepot.ca/product/owens-corning-foamular-ngx-c-300-xps-rigid-foam-insulation-board-2-inch-x-24-inch-x-96-inch-r-10-sl-edge/1000155124 We paid $3.00/sq ft for 2" installed. No brainer 🧠
It's most important to anchor the containers to the slab. Thickened edge is smart. Our engineer told us 11" along the edge and 5" in the middle for a different building but my guess is something similar to that..
Wanting to create a container home set up in Phoenix, AZ on flat land. Will have at most 2 shipping containers stacked on top of each other (eventually--at first just 2 containers, side by side). Wondering if it will be better for me to go with a pier foundation or a monolithic thicken edge slab. Any suggestions?
Wat he said re: inspectors and their proclivities. If it were simply a $ decision, I would think a set of piers would beat a slab in just about every case. However, there's regulations and inspectors which will factor heavily into your choice. Other influences could include how long it will exist in place and the actual ground/soil structure under and around proposed location.
I've just sub'd, great videos btw, and watched a few of your videos. What are your thoughts on container multifamily homes? This might be a way for affordable housing. Spray foam in between containers and the outer ones insulated on the exterior. Do you think that would eliminate or lessen the condensation issue?
I think this is the answer. Rip the floor out and pour concrete. Can do this in the containers and in-between them if you span trusses across ruclips.net/user/shortsVIallreZq4c
@@TheContainerGuyTV you don't think a few feet deep with rebar imbued in it, for the perimeter with the locking corners cast in would work? It'd be a shitton less concrete in the middle
I always worry about rodents/snakes living under the containers and having no way to get down there.. I hear if you spread crushed rock, you're good to go but still.. Or spray foam the "crawl space".. I like that idea! But yes, if you are in a frost zone, ICF is the way to go to frost-protect your utilities. This video was more about seismic areas (California & other locations near tectonic plates). I could/should do a few more videos on foundations yet. I also really like screw piles and I beams. Zero concrete. Skip the entire trade from being on site. Every instance and site is different though so there's no one-size-fits-all.
If u have to put all this extra stuff to make the build work.why not just build a building?your exceeding the limits of the container,right? Like making a lawnmower into a hovercraft...lol...right?container is still the best storage with a propper underlament👍
You are ignorant if you build a shipping container home ! YOU CANT FINANCE IT ! So you cant sell it for anything but cash ! You cant barrow against it and other people can't barrow to buy it !😊
If it is structurally engineered, stamped, and fully permitted, then you are incorrect. If people are ignorant and don't do that, then that ignorant person must pay cash and sell it for cash. I wouldn't buy a container home off anyone. There are probably less than a handful on the planet (if any) that are built properly. Hopefully our experiments and developments over the next few years can change that.
@@TheContainerGuyTV ok! But you are still paying for over priced siding! It has no structural purpose and to get structural integrity you have to pay for engineering and the framework! This is why we build with wood and cement /stucco and not (cargo containers)! This is just expensive siding and a pain to work with ! Now for a barn or storage or work shop or animals its perfect!

Sweet looking shop. Looks like a ton of awesome preplanning and forethought.
Thanks! We definitely tried to think of everything. No ragrets! haha
"Not even one letter?" @TheContainerGuyTv 😂
One thing that I would like to see is the before and after spray foam structural integrity.
Using steelfibers in concrete is not 'blocked' by old geezers, it just can't replace rebars but what it does it limits cracking but increasing tension capacity more evenly. Also fiberglass rebars are not stronger than steel but it's smart to use them as the most exterior layer since they don't corrode.
Dude YES! Excellent edit choices 👌🏾
Love your videos, man 😄 Can you include a link for the spray foam you used?
Thank you!

It's nice to see things well done.

You can absolutely use screw piles under the 4 corners. Or just set them on blocking for rapid, temporary deployment.
Really!!!!!!! Nice!!! From a homeless guy living in a car that is very impressive
Looks awesome, and I learned about two new types of rebar I didn't know existed before.
Yeah, the fibreglass rebar was definitely new to me.
Congratulations!!! Looking forward to your great work!!
Thank you. We'll try not to dissapoint.

what program do you use for design of containers?

One reason for steel and fiberglass rebar mix is you cant bend fiberglass into the shapes you show for the thickened edge slab.
From the US - a second layer of upper reinforcement (6x6 WWM or what you used, fiberglass rod) was usually added to thick & high PSI slab (8" plus 5-6K psi), prevents surface cracking & exfoliation. Its been 20 years sense I spec'ed floors for industrial bldg's so that prob. changed?

@TheContainerGuyTV we were quoted $9 and change for 3" spray. We didn't buy from home depot and got 3x7 sheets of 4"
Amazing new product, the fiberglass rebar, so now maybe bridges will stop deteriating and killing people now, hey I did learn something! Javi G.
Like your thought process. The new shop is going to be great
Can't wait!
What thickness slab do you suggest for a container home in a cyclone prone area? Do you suggest thicker around the edges?
It's most important to anchor the containers to the slab. Thickened edge is smart. Our engineer told us 11" along the edge and 5" in the middle for a different building but my guess is something similar to that..
Building looks amazing, can't wait to see more videos.

What companies do you recommend that meet your standards that use spray foam?
My guess is that he used the metal rebar because he could bend it.
Galvanic corrosion with dissimilar metals.
good 👍
Just subscribed to learn something new. What video editing software are you using?
Adobe Suite. Mostly Premiere Pro
if ya looking to soundproof ya workshop, see if you wanna contact LTT for the contact for the spray foam on their wall... sounds pretty good ...
👏👍
Nice shop.
👍👏
Have you guys ever placed a container style house over a basement?
Good question
We all know you mean bunker ;)
Dry Basement using your containers?
He used the glass rebar because, it was there.
2" sprayfoam is going to cost as much as the container.
basalt rebar ?
winter heating gonna cost me more than a house xD
they look amazing tho specialy as minimalist
Gotta insulate. No thermal bridging. Watch our videos. You'll see how anal we are.
What? No ICF's?
I love ICF. Would use them for a basement 100%
