Building The World’s Most Insane Silo Roof…Custom Made Timber Frame | Silo Renovation Pt. 12

[@SPWoz]

Not often you see this type of craftsmanship without some old timer involved. Very impressive!

[@Nena84734]

What the heck, that’s absolutely “Over The Top!” Well done guys, well done!

[@1834RestorationHouse]

It's great to see some old-time craftsmanship going on! If it's not too late, I'd like to suggest that when you mortar the gap at the top of the wall, you do like our European brothers and make a lime mortar out of lime and sand. It makes a softer mortar which will allow the timber and the masonry to dry out after they get wet. A lot of their structures were mistakenly covered in the 1960s with cement, causing a lot of timber frames to rot. Wood and cement do not mix well.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

You are absolutely correct, we use a lime/cement mortar mix. Our winters are pretty harsh where we are located so we need the mixture to give it some durability, just waiting on a warm up in weather to finally get it mortared. Thanks for watching!

Wow that's quite a barn...SILO, ...raising, great work gentlemen!

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thanks 👍

[@chrisrea7347]

Great result and quality timber and workmanship! Exciting!

[@deepstate6598]

Great work, good use of an old silo, wish they would stop tearing them down

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

We totally agree, we love bringing these old structure back to life with a new purpose! Thanks for watching

[@АндрейС-л1ш]

What a precise work👍Healthy hands to all of you guys

[@peterhodges6684]

Very impressive, the pre cut beams worked out great !! And a good use of the ratchet straps. Well done indeed.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

@peterhodges6684. Thanks! Yeah precutting and assembling everything on the ground first definitely saved us a lot of time. The straps worked out awesome! It was cool to watch the king post lift off the scaffolding when we ratcheted the rafters together

[@michaelkrempels7577]

Das ist kein Scheunendach. Für das kleine Dächlein ist das Holz in Ordnung. Jungs ihr seid die größten.👍👍👍

[@Brian-os9qj]

Quite the project y’all got going. Totally guy focused makes it even more impressive. Beautiful and manly. Thx man

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Glad you’re enjoying it, thanks for watching!

[@Thejakegee]

Awesome work. This is a huge feat to tackle up in the air. The three months of hard work paid off!

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

@Thejakegee yeah assembling this up there added an extra layer of difficulty. Glad it all came together nicely though! Thanks for watching!

[@salonmoune9283]

What you guys did is very amazing !! Appreciate 👏👏👏👏👏 from Thailand 🇹🇭

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you! Cheers from Wisconsin!

[@BrianQuinton-l1e]

Excellent carpentry and brilliant roof 👍

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you!

[@chriswild2458]

Carpenter from the uk , nice work lads and your attention to detail is excellent

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you and cheers from Wisconsin!

[@coolvinnyb]

That is looking incredible, well done. That roof is a piece of art, and the cap looks beautiful.👍👏👏👏

[@86OEd]

Excellent craftsmanship!

[@ediestudio]

Bravo! It really is a master piece!

[@kylebarns]

Well done guys, good looking roof.

[@eliasloozen7948]

Nice work! You don't need 'spectactular' videotitles, your work speeks for itself!

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you!

[@kurtsmith4657]

Yall are killing it, beautiful work. The ash yall used looks pretty clear, would of expected to see some boring holes from the ash borer but looks like you found some choice stuff. Personally, i would of probably laid some tar paper or joist tape between the concrete & post contact but hopefully that far up, moisture in the concrete will be minimal.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Yes we were able to find some ash with minimal bore damage but most of it is in the sap wood which is pretty much milled off. We did use a marine sealer on the wood that is touching concrete and we also have a large overhang on the roof that should keep most of the elements off the top ledge but good call, we will definitely look into tar paper in the future or ice and water. Thanks for watching!

[@JohnNascimentoArt]

Wow. How did you learn to do all of this? Amazing craftsmanship. Congratulations guys.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thanks! Mostly been building since we were young but we’ll also check out new ways and ideas for how to do things online.

[@Windstonemtn]

What a fun job! Glad I found your site. Be safe up there.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

@Windstonemtn thanks for subscribing! Lot more to come with this project and others we’re planning out right now.

[@arinsarris]

Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship guys, well done!!!

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you!

[@kendalandsteve6855]

Awesome job guys! Very impressive & I Love the quality 💪💥💥💥

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you, God Bless!

[@enwinn]

Very nice work! Looking forward to seeing the rest.

[@petedavies4796]

Awesome job craftsmanship at work

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thanks!

[@Jameson4327]

I am glad that I found your channel. May I ask what are your future plans for the inside? You have gotten my attention.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Glad you found us as well! We are planning on making a bar at the bottom, a sports/movie watching hangout on the second floor and a lounge seating area at the top. Thanks for watching!

[@dogcreek8547]

It's all fun and games when we have all the latest gizmo's and gadgets. Now think back just a hundred years ago. This is our world for awhile.

[@godbluffvdgg]

Some of those checks and splits are brutal...Rough framing indeed.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Yes some do have some big splits but all lumber was oversized for this project and we stabilized the splits with dowels and ledgers! Good eye and thanks for watching!

[@bobcolgan]

I kept thinking, as I watched, how much easier it would have been if the skeletal top structure could have been ground assembled and then craned into place. But obviously, not as much fun, eh? Very nice workmanship !

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Haha yes we did debate craning it for a bit but it was fun reassembling it on the top of the silo piece by piece, Thanks and God Bless!

[@lounar482]

I have disassembled roughly 8 barns that were classic timber frames utilizing the mortise and tenon. Without exception, in revealing a tenon without a wedge that was subject to tension forces, roughly 50% of these had failed internally due to shear failure parallel to the tenon the width of the pin. This failure is hidden in the mortise and becomes evidenced by partial tenon withdrawal. It appears your tension ring holding the roof rafters from spreading utilizes nothing but mortise and tenon joints to keep it together. Then again, maybe you are planning a compression ring around the circumference?

[@thechadwick22]

Laying down roofing at night! Whew.. Good on ya, but dang. That's got to be one of the craziest things I've seen. What a project!

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

@thechadwick22 thanks! We’ve been working on this project mostly weekends/nights and with a nice stretch of weather (above 30 degrees and not raining or snowing) we had to hit it hard some nights. It helped having all the metal panels pre-cut and labeled so we were able to get the large panels on one night and do all the trim and finish work the next days.

[@bootsnthejeep]

Right? Jesus. I don’t like doing it in broad daylight!

[@thechadwick22]

You guys are absolute studs! Makes me excited for you from my desk lol. Stay safe and keep doing exactly what you're doing. One of my favorite projects period!

[@fredsimon6640]

Nice work!

[@JK-wp1om]

Great job!

[@butchhubbard6124]

Love it Love it!!!!!!

[@richardlafleur2511]

Well done Gents

[@RobertSkene-qw3ob]

Fanciest outdoor Biffy I have ever seen ! Complete with open top ventilation and whats amazing is that it is truly a Brick Shite House 😄

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Glad you like it! We will actually be putting some windows around the top to utilize it all four seasons as well, thanks for watching!

[@Peter-xf6fy]

Nice job, i like it 🎉

[@razor3151]

So cool!

[@valdemartiger1069]

Really nice work. Be nice to your brother though

[@TheTwistedStone]

I would have gone at least a foot more on roof height, the main beams are right in the line of sight making you want to crouch to get a better view. Fantastic project.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thank you, our goal is to have the windows at eye level while sitting on the wrap around bench once it’s installed!

[@pascalchavanon1930]

A masterpiece 👍😎🇫🇷

[@bootsnthejeep]

What the hell did we do before TimberLoks and impact drivers?! I mean, I know we got BY, but these are SO MUCH BETTER.

[@kendalandsteve6855]

Hoorah 💪

[@geraldinepebdani2337]

That one beam looks split. I hope you are reinforcing that

[@basvanoort1]

Awesome build! Question: what software do you use for the design?

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thanks! We use Shaper 3D for these specialty projects.

[@georgegordonbrown9522]

Is the construction of the floor/deck sturdy enough?

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Hi @georgegordonbrown9522 yeah the top floor should be plenty sturdy. For the joists we used 2x8’s spaced 16 inches on center with both sides anchored to the stone/mortar using steel hangers. There were a bunch of large granite stones used to build this silo which we screwed most of the anchors through so it shouldn't be going anywhere.

[@54mgtf22]

Very cool

[@stevenwallace5470]

Well done boys that's impressive. Goodwork! You've earned a new sub

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thanks!

[@WilberNStella]

Such fine skills you guys have. BTW how many time has someone fell 2 the ground? 😬

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Haven’t fallen yet thankfully, we are typically very careful but occasionally we are forgetful on safety precautions but we always working on getting better! Thanks for watching!

[@salvo9718]

😮 Wow 😮😮😮

[@dogcreek8547]

That ain't gone no where.

[@Stan_in_Shelton_WA]

1:21 - When you use the wrong type of fastener head you reduce the strength of the connections.

[@shinnick22]

The entire floor is carried by tapcons and joist hangers? Is that enough? It might be fine, I’m genuinely asking

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Yes sir, there are about 200 tapcons holding up each floor and they are only experiencing shear forces due to the tight placement of the joists, these floors aren’t going anywhere!

[@thomasschafer7268]

Das sieht alles sehr gut aus. Nur warum so große klauen an den gradsparren?👍👍🇩🇪

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

@thomasschafer7268 thanks! We’re not quite sure what you mean by “claws” but if you’re referring to the overhang of the rafters we wanted the roof to come out past the stone silo cap so water and snow wouldn’t collect on the cap right in front of where the windows will be.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Thanks and cheers from Wisconsin!

[@hoangpham4468]

No painting or staining???

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Stain was applied after the roof was fully installed!

[@furthur4u]

You guys get an A+ in the “having a pair” column but take fall protection seriously. All this talent doesn’t mean anything when it’s locked in the head of a quadriplegic.

[@joaopedrooliveira7711]

👏👏👏👏👍

[@adams9355]

Darn… I was hoping the whole top was going to be glass.

[@putra6106]

[@allenzwei6092]

Was an additional parapet walk ever in discussion?

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Not as of yet but could always be a possibility for future project, Thanks!

[@martinclemets2313]

seems that one brother maybe the oldest has a lot of negative comments about his siblings.

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

Haha ya we grew up in a big family so it’s kinda how we joke around but at the end of the day we know it’s all fun and games!

[@ottodidakt3069]

I hate these clickbait titles : nothing impossible nor insane about that frame, here in Europe they're common !

[@roxannecarr8355]

Stop being so hateful. Say something nice, or nothing at all. It’s still great work for those who are handymen. Blessings.

[@lowellfunk8974]

Well this ain't in urop so go pound sand ifen ya don't like it.

[@talltom1129]

Thanks for the warning

[@holgermessner851]

Americans do “always super work”. I am just stunned by the cracked / split wood they used. 😮Seriously? For a roof?

[@lowellfunk8974]

@@holgermessner851 I do believe that "uropeens" never have had to deal with wood that dries improperly over time. Seriously, do you not know anything about timber framing? Or is it just that european everything is always better than anyone else in the world? Don't go away mad... just go away! Your superiority complex is so old!

[@РинатАхметов-г6э]

перекрытия на шурупах............

[@davidlbrown309]

Big fucking deal. Look back at what was accomplished by hand, no lifts. No ratchet straps ,no power.tools. . Nothing to it. Been a Carpenter right here 50 yrs. Not about the roof...its about utube

[@killbot1974]

Reread what you wrote. Then go throw out all your Milwaukee, Dewalt, and other power tools. You are now limited to a hammer, gouge, and a brace and bit.

[@pjofurey6239]

Nice , but the words “insane” “the worlds” just scream American childhood .”don’t recommend “

[@albertosuave1448]

Lol

[@mcass3663]

DUDE!!! You standing up there trying to wiggle that beam in is CRAZY without fall protection!! WTF were you thinking man???

[@Worzalla_Brothers]

@mcass3663 yeah it was a little sketchy up there but not as dangerous as it looks. We took extra safety precautions making sure the scaffold was sturdy and to not rush anything. With the main beam being centered above the silo there was about 10 feet all around the beam so quite a bit of room on the top floor to land if something were to happen. Thanks for the concern and watching us put this all together!

We are all brothers that like to joke around with each other! its how we show our love especially when you grow up in a large family! Humor is what gets us through these long work days, Thanks for watching!
