Landing large trusses for a new Hybrid roof structure

- I am building a large hybrid roof that is part factory produced members and then site produced loose
fill rafters and other components
I like to design all steel out of a roof structure using modern timber technology and off site manufacturing coupled with clever structural design
This roof has 4 dormer windows, three large gables and roof window
I would like to personally thank both our Lorry delivery drive Aran and also Roy who was amazing in the mobile crane

Good vid Robin showed the importance of a decent crane driver .
Really looking forward to the rest of the roof build. Like a bit of cut and pitch so this will be some great viewing 👍
Always a great education, years of experience can’t be beaten!👍
The temptation to manually try to do the cranes work for it must be huge, instead of relying on the power of the machine. Watching an experienced operator is always a joy, I worked at a production plant a very long time ago and we had a forklift driver who unloaded the incoming parts like lightning. He literally did the work of two men, if he was off sick there was, very quickly, a backlog with drivers getting impatient to get away and chaos in the receiving area and sometimes not every pallet was put in the warehouse at the end of the day. For some deliveries he used the ‘iron fairy’ happy days!
Really enjoyed that. Cheers. I love a series!
Great Vlog Robin and really interesting to watch this structure take place, you do get some really interesting projects.
Nice one Robin. Great to see another example of the hybrid roof.
Glad you liked it!
I'm convinced that you are a Genius you are incredible regards Howard from Cyprus I wish we had your weather 38 to 42 here my swimming pool temperature is 35 dgrs 🎉🎉🎉🎉
35 degree pool water!!!!! sounds hot there!!! we have 32 degrees today and I am on the roof!!
The crane driver did well, he must have been close to his limits.
Cheers for the video Robin, very informative as always. Not seen Ed in a while is he still with you, hope he's ok regardless..
Take care
Conor
Think he said on a recent video that he was on another job, but that he'd be back soon.
Orange hard hat for your lift Marshall is always a good idea (and best practice), driver knows who to take instruction from.
😂😂😂 if the crane driver could distinguish Robin who was 20 metres away then he shouldn’t be driving the crane
What colour does he wear when he's not the lift marshall? Its getting a bit pedantic when all the lift marshall needs to do, once instruction is given regarding where the load should go, is the recognised signals, regardless of his hat colour!
I banked tower cranes on major projects, then orange vests are necessary only for the driver to see you, not for hand signals which are seldom used, radio communication is much easier.
@MrThebigredone In your opinion, should the crane driver be wearing a hard hat and hi-viz ?
@@jaycfc6955 When walking to and from the crane yes, no need to wear them in the cab…imo
Roys the Boy ! ... 😁
Thank you for this video Robin.
Just a Q; will you need to dismantle the scaffolding to go on to the other side?
In the centre of the joists there is a gap with a bit of blocking either side. Is that a structural detail or something to do with subsequent mechanical systems?
I have a question. The large trusses seem to be connected to each other with screws. However as far as I saw they are screwed one sided. Does this process give them enough lateral strength against side movements? I live in an earthquake country and am planning to replace the 30 years old roof. Thank you for your extremely interesting videos. They are highly informative.
All plans would have been approved by a structural engineer. I bet a group of elephants could have a disco on this roof when all is said and done.
@@paulmetcalfe3721 🤣😂Thank you for your kind reply.
Great work, where has Ed gone not seen him on your videos for awhile.
Yeh I'm thinking the same miss seeing Ed I was told last time he's on a different project bless him!
better of hoped that bottom cord of the truss was straight if ur plumbin a truss up that way :D
Think he knows what he's doing
The truss webbing is steel. I’m suing for false advertisement!
I thought I'd spotted you almost underneath the suspended load there?..........H&S ? 😉
I think they would be more worried about the tower platform height
Logistics well and done in safety.
Why not crane onroof
I don't think the roof would hold a crane
You'd need a larger crane, looks to be too tight on site for anything bigger than a 25 ton

Birdcage???
Hey Robin, I know you're really numerate from so many of your videos but the big truss (4 thick vs 3 thick) was 33% heavier not 25% as stated.
mmmm now take the overall weigh of the four thick, remove one and is the overall weight now only 75% of what it was?? a conundrum!! but really fun!!
It's pedantic you said 25% more which isn't correct, rather than the other way. 3=75% of 4 is equivalent 4=133% of 3. But its a video taken on site not a maths tutorial so was the original comment worth it...
The 4 thick is 33% heavier than the 3 thick. The 3 thick is 25% lighter than the 4 thick 🤯
Great Video Content as usual Robin, but please review your H&S on site (even Domestic). The use of the tower is incorrect with the split levels not a good idea, rails are too low and no Toe Boards.
Production speed is obviously not a priority.
Robin's not a housebasher.
@@brianw289 Being a house bumper is the ultimate insult.....forced to do it once...walked off after one day
@@brianw289 There's plenty of room between a hack's pace and a geologic age in production. It's fine to work at this slow pace if you can afford it, especially considering video production... just an observation from an experience residential framer.
