A MANUAL That Anyone Can Use to Build a Small Frame House

[@lazaroarocha7370]

you guys are bad ass carpenters

[@jn1ty]

Not sure what country this is but the lumber looks great! On the video it looks like full dimension lumber not like the stuff we have here that was full dimension before they plane it down. I always love how the guys work as a team and it looks like every move is planned. Great job.

[@RNMSC]

The Anderep Next roof underlayment (what we would historically use tar paper for) comes back to Uniroof in Armenia, and a lot of matches where the alphabet looks like it may be Cyrilic. So yeah, that's consistent with the lumber.

[@maximsitnikov7202]

Впечатляющая и точная работа со стропилами 👍🏻

[@dougwilson4537]

Very nice build. I haven't seen a let in, done in a wall for decades. I also like how you took your time to precisely set the sill plate, then referenced the other aspects of the build, from that, and from each other. The crew looks like they have worked together for awhile. I would have done a few things differently, but then I live by the North Atlantic, and we get nasty weather. You build for where you live. Again.... a nice video. I enjoyed watching.😊

[@Irish_Balladeer]

About 30:50 in the video I can see the edge plank is a little bit lower than the roof joists, is to do with the roofing? Enjoyed your work immensely, brilliant and the screw driver in the set square great tip ☘️👍

[@mikehardin7086]

Burger King straw was really funny. Good job guys.

[@OctavianUngureanu]

The wall frames should be assembled on the soil: studs, top plate, and bottom plate. Because they fixed the bottom plate first, the studs and top plate joints got loose. This mistake will be visible in the structure's strength.

[@markdoty7673]

That’s not true. The reason they did it this way is to cut the studs according to the level set by the laser. Toenailing is as effective as end nailing or better when done like these guys do it. This structure won’t be affected in any way by doing it like this. This actually is the correct way to frame over an uneven concrete slab.

[@markdoty7673]

Sorry. The level was a builders level not a laser.

Chuck, thanks for subscribing! But our work on this site is finished, we are carpenters, we are engaged in the construction of the structure. The finishing is done by other specialists.

[@whith5184]

You know so many quick ways of making cuts accurately without pulling out the tape measure and pencil

[@johnsand9330]

As a constructor (mechanical), I think it is a solid build that is stable and can withstand high loads, unlike some builds in the US that do not seem to be able to withstand high snow loads.

[@juny2816]

I've done framing but every crew I worked with nailed the bottom plate on the walls first. What's the advantage of raising walls with the bottom plate already fastened down? Beautiful work guys.

[@LongieR8er]

What’s the reasoning for planing the studs ? Is it just for looks ? To have a fresh look ?

[@markdoty7673]

To flush up the differences between the sistered lumber or any uneven intersections. Make finish work much easier later on.

[@juny2816]

[@ongv2491]

You guys are very smart.

[@buszibuszi8343]

What is the benefit to framing the walls after the bottom plate has been anchored? It looks more difficult. Is it more precise?

[@markdoty7673]

The slab is uneven so they cut the studs longer or shorter to keep the top plate level. They used a laser on the fastened plate to determine the plus or minus on the stud.

[@markdoty7673]

The method they use is very good. Removes the need for shimming or laying the mudsill (bottom plate) in mortar and levelling it.

[@markdoty7673]

Sorry. The level was a builders level not a laser.

[@keithdeceault9851]

Larry Haun would be proud

[@MyPhilemon6site]

I don’t know if he would approve of some of their methods… I’ve taught framing construction…and anchoring with J-bolts to the slab is code in the USA in any region….I never seen toe nailing wall studs to bottom plate after lifting wall up… it looks cumbersome when studs are dangling. On the positive side they are precise in their cutting techniques.

Love your videos. Not sure why you aren’t using starter strips on your shingles. There is nothing to seal the first row of shingles down. They will curl and catch wind and nothing underneath where they butt together between the seams.

Great technique on them cuts. I hope to I have my house framed with this talent. How much would it cost for a framed house done like this $$$ US; Atlanta, Ga.

I would like to build a roof porch on my 🏠 home. But i need help on how cause its not that simple. I have like an L shape home at the front where the porch meets the front door where the living room is and part of house that goes towards one of the bedrooms. How would i plan on making my roof ?

[@henrynehring9950]

I haven’t seen a hint of using a square. I realize other countries do things differently but squaring up walls and framing is necessary.

[@markdoty7673]

The squaring is done when they snap the lines and measure the diagonals on the framed walls. Plus they usually don’t nail the diagonal brace until they plumb the corners of the walls.

[@theobach2702]

Sehr schön, aber sehr aufwändig im Holzverbrauch! Nein, nicht jeder kann solch Haus bauen! Zuerst benötigt man einen anständigen Maschinenpark, der kostet schon einen 4 stelligen Betrag. Dann braucht es das Können, die Übung und das notwendige Wissen, um Abläufe koordinieren zu können, Fehlerquellen zu vermeiden und eine anständige und vor Allem, halltbare Konstruktion zu erstellen. Die Bedeutung der Unterspannbahn erschliesst sich mir nicht. Im Ziegeldach wird diese auf die Sparren genagelt und die Nagelleiste anschliessend mit Dichtband überklebt. Bei Eurer Konstruktion läuft doch, bei einem Schaden an der dünnen Papplage, das Wasser am nächst tiefergelegenem Nagelloch direkt auf die OSB- Platte. Oder, wie funktioniert das?

[@PuredirtMike]

Is this a joke?They dont even know the basics of fastening a wall.Toe nailing to the bottom plate? Why didnt you build,and nail the walls and then stand them up and bolt them down?Not one guy knows the basics.

[@dougwilson4537]

This is old school carpentry. Toenailing studs was a standard practice, and is still used in renovating. It has also been a long time, since I have seen a let in used in wall construction. The method you mention, is modern construction techniques, meant to speed up the assembly (ie lower labour costs), but it is not structurally better than toenailing.

[@markdoty7673]

They cut the studs according to the laser to compensate for the uneven slab. Toenailing is actually as effective or more so than end nailing. The bottom plate has to be fastened to take the laser reading accurately.

[@markdoty7673]

Sorry. The level is a builders level not a laser.

Why didn't they just set J bolts in the concrete? And no dust mask for the drilling/blowing out the holes? I'm done with these guys.

[@markdoty7673]

It’s an old slab, probably poured long before they framed. Hammer drilling downwards and blowing out the hole in open air isn’t a problem as long as you don’t stick your face 2” from the hole. 😊

[@markdoty7673]

To be fair, we haven’t seen in the video how the house was finished on the outside. I’m pretty sure the guys doing these videos know what they are doing. Building direct over a flat concrete slab is a pretty common method. It’s how you finish the porch and the use of flashings/sealants at the plate line that will make all the difference here.

[@SunShyne_Culture]

Is this a shed for chickens? 😢 Made but pure butt joints and held together by pins!!! 😮😮😮 What wind can this resist? 😅😅😅

[@dougwilson4537]

I guess you didn't see the overlap joints that I saw.😄 This is old style construction, that I haven't seen in decades. Plenty strong enough. Personally, I would have put hurricane ties on every rafter, but then I live by the North Atlantic, and see some vicious gales You build for the area you live in

[@markdoty7673]

This is the old school style of stick framing. For many places in the world, this is more than strong enough. Most of what we do today in North America is garbage anyway with all the metal straps etc. I’m in Canada and we framed like this for decades. Our older homes are better built with better lumber than our newer ones. Everyone thinks that some metal straps will keep the roof from blowing off. Not if that strap is attached to garbage lumber and osb header systems. It’s all just a big scam from the lumber companies to sell inferior quality products and make everyone feel like their building will survive a hurricane or tornado. If the straps are nailed to something solid, I’ll agree that’s worth doing.
