It's just so inspiring watching you all build and play together. Such harmony, such skill, such positivity. You are really bringing life to the area. We are just 40 mins north east of you, sharing the same dream, on a little 3 acre farm with a ruin we still haven't begun on. Wishing you continued success and fulfilment!

[@gamerlifeon8794]

I feel you guys should make a maintenance video every say 10-15 videos containing how you maintain the structures you already built. Could prove to be good practise going forward.

[@LovesRock]

What an amazing job by John, Colleen, Ruben and the team! Impressed by the quality of the work (and the quality of the video montage, too!) 👌🏻👌🏻 Enjoy the slow, rainy season 😄

[@renierbekker4964]

Absolutely

[@FreezyAbitKT7A]

you need a laser level. If you put the bolts diagonally the other way, they couldn't fall out ever. The load would push them in deeper.

[@W4iteFlame]

Good to see there is already a lazer level comment, so I will not add another one

[@fjkelley4774]

I enjoy all the "construction" parts. However, shouldn't the lag bolts that hold the beams to the walls be 45 degrees in the opposite direction? i.e. the 45 deg angle facing up, not down? \| not /| ??

[@vimsi]

thought the exact same thing when i saw this....

[@adzoutnabout888]

Why not put a 4x4 post in each corner under the floor frame ?

[@vimsi]

@ they really should add that - or the floor will collapse sooner or later

[@adzoutnabout888]

@@vimsiyes, that granite is decomposing and the dyna bolts will work loose with traffic and differing atmospheric conditions.

[@rustyevolution6298]

This is the way. The bolts should be angled up. Angled down in crumbling stone, they will work lose over time with the vibrations from people walking on the floor. They can still go back and add additional bolts with the proper orientation.

[@peterkilvert2712]

FANTASTIC. Well measured, cut, fitted and secured. The granite walls look fantastic too. Well done to all of you, a professional job.

QUESTION FOR VID 8: You all contribute so much to project Kamp and the long term landscape of the property. Are you planning to build plaque or something that will tell future Kampers of the individual contributors and where you are from. Such an amazing global effort.

Awesome work done by all, wish some of the builders over here in Australia had half of the pride in their workmanship as you all have invested in this project.👍🏻👌🏻

[@daveffs1935]

Can I ask why you didn't put a top plate on the wall and fix the rafters onto that? I would have thought that would be the better option, it would have spread the load across the top, added stability and been way faster that chiseling out the notches.

[@Pilot333]

My thoughts too... but heeee. I probably watched too much of Martijn Doolaars and Raising Voagers.

[@veronicakimbrell6241]

loved learning a bit about the Lime process , the roof looks sturdy constructed but a bit small to keep our rain many gaps around the edges where wood meets rock .. I know editing makes things go fast but it seems to be moving along quickly cant wait to see the finished ruin .. every one is so hard working and skilled its great watching the way projects come together..

[@Tavok22]

Great Episode. Splendid Craftmanship.

[@dooleyooley]

Might be a good idea to use a combination of nails and screws for the structural roofing joints. Nails have more shear strength than screws which are more so for compressive strength. Basically a screw is great to keep pieces of wood together but adding nails (especially if a joint is structural) adds tensile strength as nails will bend under pressure but less likely to snap

[@xingli1337]

They're lap joints the screws aren't holding load as much as pulling together.

[@dooleyooley]

That's a good point, I was thinking mostly for the joints in the ridge board though

[@xingli1337]

@ it's a good suggestion.

[@petervanlaethem]

I am impressed! And that last shot was perfect, fitted right in. 😁

[@jeanlawson9133]

That temporary floor is awesome 👍

[@DaveyWiggers]

Lateral bracing should be installed between the trusses to prevent warping. 7:27 Warped trusses cause voids to develop underneath the flooring, which causes the floor to become noisy when walking on it.

[@guzziwheeler]

Yes, Davey is right! Put in some noggins!

When you notch the beam at the end you reduce its load bearing capacity by half.

[@PatienceMarie88]

I would recommend going ahead and buying your own tarps, considering all that ya'll do. They're relatively cheap when you consider the longevity of them. Renting things that you'll often times need, adds up really fast. I'm not much of a fortune teller, but I predict that ya'll will need tarps in the future 🔮😂.

With the rainy season you can watch the swales and all the other water retention. It must be so exciting!

[@pyroslev]

I think I finally accepted that the process choices are based on folks coming from so many countries. Order of operations are just gonna be different. But, I will say I hope you guys do add a few more support and lag bolts for the floor support. A few more just in case that may bring more rigidity to the structure, not just the floor. SIdenote, add some dust collection to the tools that have it. You can use that dust for many things, such as the composting toilets.

[@kimberlyllamas5804]

I loved every aspect of this build

[@willpomeroy1743]

How not to build a floor. The strength is in their depth of the section supported, so if a 100mm deep joist is half notched it is effectively a 50mm joist, unless you have taken this into account with your joist spacing and expected dead and live loads the floor will end up deflecting a lot; use hangers off the wall plate or mount the wall plate below the joists. The bolts should have gone in in a downwards angle or horizontal; upwards is the least effective, especially as the stonework appears extremely friable.

[@OldGrizz59]

It's very cringe-worthy construction.

[@lealarsen2017]

amazing job you guys. i can´t wait for the finished results

[@JacksonDiddles]

Very nice...except the roof should extend BEYOND THE WALLS...as currently constructed rain water will run off the roof directly on top of the walls which will rot out the ends of the rafters and allow water to intrude along the inside of the rock walls. I hope your plans cover those problems.

[@Graafkaasschaaf]

0.27 you can see the plan. Extends quite a bit by the looks of it.

[@WravTil]

@@Graafkaasschaaf On the window side yes, on the other side it is not clear, but from the roof "design" it seems no.

[@sjaakvaag]

I don't see a chimney. I hope they din'tt forgot.

[@JoelPeltonen]

I've pointed bricks (filling in the gaps with mortar). What they are doing with the stones is probably ten times harder and more time consuming. Their attention to detail is fantastic and looks amazing!

@editors great job on the pacing of this video! Great content as always

[@maxejnar9934]

I would personally never make any cutouts in the first two beams that carry the entire load of the floor because i would want all the structural integrity i could get from those beams. Second I would put the bolts straight in when you put them in with an angle the load of the floor is hanging in the fastening into the wall which seems sketchy. Put them in straight and the floor is hanging in the actual bolt and i think the likelihood that the bolt would bent is far less then the risk of it getting lose because the weight of the floor is dragging it out. That said you properly fine

[@pithavy9243]

Loving the technical stuff.. Great job guys.. 👏 👍 👌

[@beautanicalgardens6353]

Curious why you angled the lag bolts that attach the beams to the wall downward? I get the logic you stated, but they are angled the direct that they will want to pull out when weight is added to the floor. I would have angled them up so they fought against gravity....

[@rustyevolution6298]

You are correct that they are not installed properly. Shear strength is the key here not pull strength. These bolts will work lose over time. The correct orientation would be to angle them upwards. I assume they will go back and add additional bolts in the proper orientation.

[@michaelenglund]

Very nice. You can also let the mortar out by rotating the blender 😎

[@simondelacourt23]

You've notched the beams far too deeply. When notching a beam the height of the remaining timber is practically all holding that beam up. The weak point is now the height of the remainder. Thats also why it is easier to place the beams that form the ring a bit lower and have the floor joists fully rest on them. I suggest supporting them with joist hangers now, they'll add some additional strength that might be handy...
