    In this episode from our SINGLE STOREY EXTENSION - INSTALLING STEEL BEAMS we see the guys showing you how to use a beam lift to fit steel beams. The guys show you how to install steel beams and position them on the pad stone. The new G-deck scaffold is installed and then John is fitting timber rafters to steel beam. Pete is cutting rafters creating a fall on a flat roof and Joe does the wall plate lap joint for on top of the steel. John shows you how to bolt trimmers together and fit lateral straps and fit joist hangers. He then shows you how to cut timber noggins for between rafters. Next up is to remove flat roof to extend the dormer and demolish walls below. Pete is trimming rafters to fit steel webbing using a router and jigsaw. John borrows Pete's DeWalt circular saw to trim timbers and gives you his opinion !!
    TOOLS USED:
    Dewalt 54v circular saw amzn.to/3lBUPYz
    PLEASE NOTE: we’ll endeavour to answer questions and comments as soon as possible depending on our work schedules.

    Only watched this video because today I had the privilege of having to move a 600kg beam with 5 other men. The man delivered it, dropped it off his wagon and shot off. We had no bogey and had to man handle it while rolling it on scaff tubes. You guys made it look easy even tho it was only a baby beam.

    If you want to keep facia size down on a warm deck roof surely it's easier to ladder out with 4x2 through wall? All that extra work cutting a fall on every timber. Building inspectors round my way would have a heart attack if I'd cut 2 inches off of rafters as well.

    @makg4655 3 года назад +1

    ON YOUR RSJ’s you have about 100mm over lap ( width of the blocks) is it not 150mm ? As 150 is min surely you aim for more than that to ensure a better bed ??

    • @djawad
      @djawad 2 года назад

      As a rule of thumb 150mm for when the beam is in plane with the wall it sits on. 100mm when the beam is perpendicular. This all however depends on the bearing stress applied onto the masonry underneath the beams so calculations would determine whether it needs to be 100 or 150 or anything in between or beyond. No hard and fast rule to say it’s definitely this and that or the other.

    @videogalore 3 года назад +1

    Silly question perhaps, but why were the rafters so deep on those side sections anyway? As you've cut these down to form the tapers the top of the flat roof has come down too of course , so it'll be interesting to see how this all sits later on in the project as it looks like a fair bit of timber was trimmed off of these.
    Not a fan of the Ytong block with no wall plate to be honest as it seems an obvious point load to me, but I'm not saying it's wrong, just personal preference.

    • @tonymcroberts3252
      @tonymcroberts3252 Год назад

      I personally wouldn't of tapered the joists as the velux will follow that pitch, I would of took out a 70mm half lap where the end of the joist passes over the outer leaf of block work then block up to it so it will be a 100mm tail end protruding instead of a 170mm and that way you keep the structural integrity of the timber
