Building a Barndominium Part 9: Concrete Floors and Versetta Stone

[@richarddecker555]

You continue to impress with attention to detail . People really appreciate seeing a contractor who builds like it is his own .

[@kellypeters1734]

Probably the best Ryan’s kzbin.infoUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans on building a shed is hardly ever found. And Ryan takes the mystery out of different types of foundation options, etc. He even shows how to build a shed with different designs. Very comprehensive, covering different roofing materials, siding, etc.

[@not2intoutube]

Kyle, you just made A LOT of people's day by showing some of the concrete work. Probably one of the most requested processes I've seen over the years in the comments

[@silviasteeve]

yup

[@Clovethelightrespectthepower]

Truff with two f’s

[@bandsix1984]

Hit up "Concrete with the Hauses" channel. It's awesome.

[@saulmoreno3252]

I always get excited when I get the pump trucks on-site... something about the machine itself just amazes me. Only thing that tops it off is the damn mud monkeys... watching those guys work the concrete is satisfying. That is some hard work yet they make it look easy.

[@mattbrew11]

got a kink for concrete pours in the ghetto eh?

[@tomthompson7400]

The stone looks really smart. And as usual your attention to detail is outstanding.

[@phillewis1768]

That stone detail really sets it off. Great job once again guys.

[@therealdojj]

when you really get down to it, there is a TON of work that goes into this sort of building, it's really only when you see how many people you need on site that you start to understand where all themoney goes for a top notch job like this

[@Happy32153]

For sure! Personal builds, If you’re willing to pace yourself, can be done over time and still much cheaper.

[@dansullivan2954]

The detail to "waterproof" is incredible. I like it a lot! Nice job guys

[@CynicalDad81]

Water destroys everything that man builds. Good work! 👍🏻

[@jerrypoyer93]

You two guys never disappoint me with the quality of your work. Ive been in construction and fabrication for 60 years and I still learn something every time I watch! "RR TIPS AND TRICKS"

[@lancer2204]

The 9 5/8" end sheets are the smart move for sure, who wants a 3.25" strip of roofing at one end looking all weird?

[@SI-lg2vp]

I used the rosetta stone on my home and love it. It has space behind the stone to allow the area to remain dry and protects my Zip System OSB.

[@dlg5485]

The tightness of this building's wall assembly is one of the most important aspects of building a long lasting house, in my opinion. If the envelope is sealed up tight like this the building will require far less maintenance over time and will last much longer overall and that's what every home owner wants. This attention to detail elevates top tier builders above the rest. I'm not a builder, but I do plan to be a customer when I build my dream home after I retire and I will seek out a builder of this caliber. Nice work!

[@guitarpro594]

Your videos are the only ones I can watch in our field of work. Always straight forward and to the point and you do good work. Bravo sir for making time worthy content

[@RRBuildings]

Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated as well as the feedback

[@stephenpaul394]

I like all your detail and that you share it. No every builder takes the care you do to insure a good final product. Thanks

[@pinnaclebuilds1011]

That's the first time I've seen a stone product install in such a way. Talk about time savings! Looking great guys.

[@michaelmeixner2302]

Thanks guys watching this to completion for sure. Doin a barndo this spring for my son. I could watch this stuff all day

[@JackBoughson]

I like the way you explain as you go. It helps make sense as I watch. Thanks!

[@andrewcarr2431]

I think those corners look bloody excellent, and that stacked stone product adds a lot of character to the building

[@videtosk]

I replaced the brick on the front of my garage with Versetta Stone a year ago. It's so easy to install and does look great. I'm really liking it on this project and you're right about the corners, once it's installed you won't notice it unless you're up real close and really look for it. I also really like the WeatherLogic. I may have to hire you in a few years when we decide where we're going to build our final "retirement" home. Keep the great videos coming.

[@donaldknee5770]

I am building a post 40x48 and finding this channel is amazing.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

I have binged watched 9 episodes now since I started with you all returning to the Barndaminium after some time. This is so interesting and I must say, very well built and managed. i am a follower now for sure. Also I am a retired Mechanical Engineer. I like what I see gentlemen !

[@RRBuildings]

Thank you

[@rhinners3407]

Put Versetta Stone on my personal home... Awesome product, but does require some finesse in the corners. Having a grinder helps to shape and fit panels in certain situations. Looks amazing when finished. Would never have saw the product without watching this channel.

[@georgeking5746]

Love this series on building this building. Not a builder or contractor myself always wanted to be. Love the stone I would put that in my own house. Looks great!!!

[@magnusb6311]

I like your channel and especially how you handle the metal siding. I dont know about the radiant floor heating. You may look into it. The tightness of the tubes is a bit close at places but what worries me most is the thickness of the insulation under the tubes. It is supposed to be 300mm or close to a foot, and that is not for insulating against the ground, it is to insulate the floor heating not going in the ground instead of the house as well as pulling up moisture and radon. Cant see really how many layers of that insulation that was laid down. Cheers and thank you for a good channel.

[@andersandersen232]

Its only in europe (or sweden) you putt 300mm insulation under a slab. In usa 🇺🇸 its ”enugh” with 2” 😀

[@BraxxJuventa]

You are very thorough on your builds Kyle. You really deliver a quality product! Very well done buddy! 👍😁

[@ranger5814]

I just need to win the lotto so you can build this and a barn for me. Love to watch your work. You guys are great.

[@frankr.3513]

Your best video yet. Love the concrete detail and detail around the versetta stone

[@JamesDeese]

There is a ton of details to follow and consider. You guys really do a great job.

[@SteveoAtilla]

A Putzmeister boom pump!!! I did some software development work for them at their headquarters in Sturtevant, Wisconsin. Amazing trucks! They have a boom that can pump concrete 150 feet straight up. Incredible.

[@TheWolfster001]

Have you ever thought about doing a video with just voice over.. You could show footage of your older builds and just give a commentary of what is being done & why.. Some people may not like it, but those who (like me) love the detail, it can show/explain to some the why something is done.. The more I watch your videos I have been leaning more and more to thinking that style could be the easiest way to build, residential homes that are far stronger then standard stick frame.. I have been retired for at least 20 years. I built hundreds of homes in my 40 + years as a builder.. In my day, we did not have the toy's you all take for granted, very few power tools and no air at all... Loved it... Keep sharing..

[@codydonovan7356]

This is the most sealed up house on the planet!

[@billywebber8002]

Man, if water gets in that barn, I’ll eat my hammer! Good work guys 👍 very good to see the attention to detail

[@michaelburdosh7001]

Kyle, I can't wait to see the finished product. Love your work and videos

[@MR619Can]

youtube university - construction 101 - Professor Kyle & TA Greg.....you guys rock!

[@tc9148]

Love seeing the SIGA Fentrim 430 Gray tape being used, best concrete adhesion. Should roll the tape for best adhesion.

[@Rockman110886]

Liked that you left that line in. " What my old lady always says" cracked me up 🤣

[@brianblowers6239]

Kyle, I like to use a short 1x2 or 2x2 as a story pole while installing the rows to maintain spacing from the reference line it’s a lot faster than pulling out my tape on every stone

[@DachsAutos]

Looking great! We'll be looking for a replacement for our river rock wainscot maybe next year (breaking off due to poor installation/fitment with concrete apron) The Versetta product looks much nicer in a real install vs. the sample patterns i've seen in a store

[@joepommer3153]

Looking forward to seeing how you do the detail of running the Versetta cap into the door trim 👍

[@mikecooper7094]

I’m building my own barndominium this coming summer..I hope mine turns out half as nice as this one. I love the versetta stone

[@daveshepherd7582]

So many great details on this build! Hope the supply issue doesn't hold you up too badly.

[@kleibundguth]

Your attention to detail is remarkable. I wish y'all came down to Georgia because I will be in need of a "pole barn" soon.

[@victormontes9384]

Hi I’ve always been impressed by your detail job performance if I lived in your area it would be a privilege to work for you awesome knowledge. Thank you for posting this super helpful videos of all around Construction👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@firemanj35]

Such a great job. I really like all the details you continue to share.

[@twosawyers]

The Versetta Stone is a very intriguing product!

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

Everything looks good from a distance.

[@roybrochu5409]

Really like the Versetta stone, great look.

[@stevepepin74]

I think it’s time for you to come to Florida and build my house and out buildings! Impeccable work as well as work ethic.

[@AllstarVentures]

Like the Versetta stone ! Turns out really nice

[@dwaynejones1146]

My brother,I wish you were in Atlanta to build my family home....I love your attention to detail.

[@jac3975]

Aussie Carpenter here and find it funny the saying “Looks good from my house” is a universal saying 🤣

[@michaelwhittaker6492]

Or a town/ city 30 minutes away 🤣

[@darrenmarsh2290]

I always liked, " Looks good from my bedroom window."

[@horstszibulski19]

Just binge watched the whole series up to here...love it and glad to find you on the YT universe... :-D Looking forward to your progress, especially for the first floor install. Thx for taking us with you on that build! :-D

[@dansklenicka8403]

Again great detail explanation Kyle looking forward to this journey..

[@Nathaniel_Bush_Ph.D.]

"I work out in the mornings." That remark killed me! I've only known a couple people in my life with boundless physical energy like that.

[@Nb19873]

Mate that is bloody beautiful work. Really well done.

[@charlottebrown270]

Wow thanks so much for posting that I wanted to see them pouring the cement floor

[@AaronHope_Sow]

Love this detail. The only thing I wish we could have seen was the heated floor layout/zoning. Can you share a bit about that?

[@C_Squared]

Concrete day is so satisfying

[@brianhubbard6423]

You and Gregg do a great job and get a lot done for two guy's. Have considered hiring a person in the future? I would like to know how Sack is doing in his endeavors if that isn't too personal. Keep up the great work and God bless.

[@Painfulwhale360]

I’ve been helping my brother wire up a steel building for a gentleman at church and the guy said the price of the steel frame has literally doubled in price since he first ordered it. The steel was around 40k and it’s now over 80k. So there are definitely benefits to building with wood if you do it right

[@michaelhardin3422]

@18:21 - I was falling off my chair LMAO - I truly know the feeling. Great WORKS Kyle.

[@ClimbAClassic]

Man, attention to detail 👍💪. Wish you were here in California - I’m looking to build exactly this type of structure

[@davidparker8475]

Love the attention to detail.

[@MORGANTOLIVER]

The attention to detail is phenomenal. How do you buy all of your material? Is it supplied mostly by one distributor/Lumber yard? I am an Outside Sale Rep for a Lumber yard in the Midwest, I visit jobs like yours regularly. You should do a video on distributor relationships and such, I think it is key to keeping a job like the size of this one you are working on now running smooth. Keep up the good work!

[@williamdecamp7343]

The only thing I would have done differently, I would have taped the bottom edge of that Weathertech sheathing along the bottom edge and up each side front and back with that 4” tape. Even that weathertech will wick up moister on that exploded edge against that concrete curb. I also would have liquid flashed it to the concrete and dropped my Versetta stone to hide it. If you were local to my area, I’d be signing a contract with you for my build. Nice work.

[@davidcurry3351]

@18:23 .... I'll give you one I use for an occasional chuckle.. "it looks good from afar, but far from good" haha

[@JamesBond-xq3tw]

Nice using cardboard on the end bends , Good aircraft engineering tips. Great job ,from a little island called Jersey

[@joelongrid7625]

Moving around to areas where you can keep moving forward is necessary sometimes, good management.

[@lorenkoska8934]

[@BradGMK6350]

Greg at 11:39 that was great,Howdy from south Texas

[@kristoffslovijk666]

Good stuff as always, Kyle. You sure do nice work!

[@highline3617]

I think the best way for them to make a corner is to have dedicated corner trim pieces that match the top cap and intentionally sticks out just a little bit. Until then I think the staggered corners are the best bet, they’re not bad

[@joebrant2603]

cant wait to see it done. looks great so far.

[@willb3018]

The work these guys do is amazing. Attention to detail is second to none. Versetta stone really gives you a nice very look. It is hard for me to get a good perspective of scale on a screen. I wonder if the wainscoting height is adjusted based on the wall height? Would there be a extra row or two if doing a 20' wall vs a 14' wall? Or doesn't that matter that much?

[@kierandoherty1600]

Personal preference i'd say.

[@videogalore]

The corner stones are termed as 'quoins', here in the UK at least and they do wrap around alternatively as you say.

[@Tomhoss16]

"that's what my old lady always says" 🤣

[@rhinners3407]

Kyle... How much knowledge did you have when you started from your previous career compared to today? Did you ever think you'd be in this great position to give back when you started? Anyway, thanks for showing the slab process! My students will love this!

[@RRBuildings]

I knew very little… no training just stuff here and there on my own home

[@tt7hvn]

@@RRBuildings experience will always be the best teacher 👍

[@freebird7284]

i'm sure he still learns something everyday to make the job quicker and better

[@zachkilmartin5905]

5:08 it's about the little things "that's what my old lady says" lmao

[@petebird7171]

Another great build, really loving this 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@LiquidBully]

Nice Martinez tool belt, one of a kind

[@jamesdiehl8690]

As long as the joints don't line up to leak, you can set them so it looks like blocks instead of veneer! 😀

[@doritleis2773]

I to Love your Videos, it is so much to learn. That i can to say Craftsman what is to make. Thanks to yours Videos. Greeting 🇦🇹

[@TripleTAcres]

You guys do amazing work!

[@jessegriffin8457]

Absolute master craftsmen 💪🏼💪🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@wesheriveaux9325]

I was m definitely looking to get something like this done

[@robsdeviceunknown]

Man, you able to build in Alabama? Looking at property their and plan on having a Barndominium built. But probably not as nice as what you are used to. only 300K budget. But that's just for dryin. I plan on doing interior finish work myself other than floors.

[@anthonysmith9410]

You have 5 levels of water diversion systems on the out side wall…..so far.. By the way I wear your hoodie and people say ….wow! Thats cool

[@bullheadhomestead]

Great attention to detail guys..

[@RNTbuilder]

damnnn that Martinez pouch really does look good!. Kyle, how does it fit? and do you like it? I use big pouches but its never a good fit on the body big pockets but not enough space to organize the stuff I gotta carry on it.

[@johnhunter273]

As always, awesome stuff!

[@Moutanman]

"It's the little things, you know?" "That's what my old lady says..."

[@gregorymacneil2836]

Stone corners? You are probably the only one who will notice it or at least be fixated on it and that is because you installed it! They will disappear once the grass grows and the rest of the exterior finish is installed. If it is any consolation the form panel lines and small bits of honeycombing on the foundation are more visible:-)

[@joestalter5999]

I would love to See Versetta Stone make 90 corner pieces just like LP smart side. I think it would look much cleaner

[@tocolee6127]

These are the guys or type of company you hire when it has to be done right!

[@RRBuildings]

Appreciate that

[@stenny1970]

RR Buildings - Good looking stone. Question: Why would you not use Tyvek over the top of the Weather Logic - including under the stone ?

[@mwww2589]

Where did you get versetta starter strips. We haven't seen any in a few months now. We also can't get anymore stone until after the 1st of the year. You run into any issues with stone availability yet? Also the black 26 gauge metal. I heard it was the paint that they couldn't get not the metal. Black is hard to get in all construction metals now. 5 inch gutter probably being the worst.

[@chriswoolvin7284]

What are your thoughts on water with the fasteners used on siding? Should they be covered with a liquid flash or caulking?

[@tylerneal7889]

I would love to see a quick "how to" video on the process you would take if this structure sat on a partial basement (over the living quarters). I'm hung up on how the floor joist for the first floor would be installed on the basement with the post frame and 630T brackets. Would you install a sill plate on the entire top wall and then attach your brackets on top of the sill plate? Only sill plate between the columns? Thoughts?

[@mrs.9315]

Loving this build! It is definitely giving me a lot of ideas for our own. One question, in the areas where the piping for the radiant heating kind of converges, or gets really close together, does that make a spot that is warmer than the rest of the floor?
