Building trusses for Demolition Ranch Headquarters Part 8

[@erockhefleyjr6852]

Demolitia here!!!! More subs comin your way! 👊🏻

[@kylezmcgee455]

I went from Vet Ranch to Off the Ranch to Out on the Ranch and Homemade Everything to Demolition Ranch to here and Matt Risinger. Definitely more incoming subscribers. 😊

[@jeffp9889]

I’m showing this to my grandson because he does not know why he needs algebra in real life! Excellent example. 👍🏻

[@280zone]

I think this is more geometry.

[@jackielinde7568]

Yeah, it's surprising how much math a tradesman can do on the fly. They are no slouches. RR Buildings is another channel where they use a lot of algebra and trig on the jobsite to make sure their building is plumb, level, square and true.

[@dangnguyen7365]

sohcahtoa!

[@tdmallet]

Trigonometry, to be exact. I'd love to see them layout and fab the pipe trusses. Great video.

[@BigBoiBleu]

Even trig should be basic and necessary knowledge if we are being honest.

[@dougstubbs9637]

With a Stickie! Talent there. Makes my welds look like a visit from the Silver Pidgin.

[@280zone]

I love watching skilled craftsmen at work, they make it look so easy.

[@BlackThunder885]

Explained that in a way that made sense to me, wish that my high school math teachers were so willing to do that... Luckily been learning math from old construction workers at my current job. Keep up the great videos.

[@rosecowBoys09]

I wish I had been following you years ago ....same here my son always, always reminds me I don't need to take an kinda of math or algebra I'll never use it in life he graduated last year now he's like I wish i had listened more in my math classes he works in construction with his uncle's till he decides what he really wants to do .... Eric I love watching your videos so interesting beautiful home you guys build 😊

[@TexasBarndominiums]

Thank you

[@sailorddg9877]

Whoever is picking them Tunes, smooth. Thanks for showing the build from the start of fabrication.

[@alexzummo5342]

As an MEP contractor this is some great knowledge! I usually come in after the structure is complete.

[@geicomatt]

They say "we will never use this in the real world" well kids here it is in the real world!!

[@MAGAMAN]

If they taught math in school in a way that was engaging like this, many more people would put more effort into learning math. A lot of schools don't even have metal or wood shop anymore, which is a real shame.

[@SheepdogSmokey]

@@AdamAlistair I'm building a pre-fab building into a house, loads of math considering I do very little other than accounting most of the time.

[@SheepdogSmokey]

Amen, we all have calculators but they can fail due to a virus, or just not have power, knowing how to do this manually.

[@SheepdogSmokey]

@@MAGAMAN They used to in Ag, Shop, and other classes that have been cancelled so the money can go to sports.

@@AdamAlistair i'll bet you see a lot of methheads too

[@yippie21]

I wish either I'd had your math teachers back in school or you as the teacher. Mine were horrid. Thanks the the explanations. Most excellent way of paying back knowledge.

[@rhino5419]

I came here originaly because of demo ranch but this is quickly becoming one of my favourite channels. You could have been a teacher as you have that rare talent of clear explanation of practical use of what is taught in schools and kids think they will never need. Good health and stay safe.

[@miguelvalle6563]

I have honestly learned more on your channel in the last 2 weeks than I have in years of watching KZbin videos from others. You go so much into detail and give so much knowledge you've gathered in your years of work. You give us explanations on the jargon used which can't be learned unless someone teaches you while working out on the field. keep it up! Thank you so much!

[@Don1960]

Doing is one thing remembering is another. You do this every day me once every 3 to 4 years.

[@buddyzmama1]

I love how you show all the skilled work done by talented people, that most would never think of as being important to building our world. Thank you for doing these awesome things as a part of your channel, Eric 👍👍👍

[@stevendewell5505]

That is a really good welder. He can really lay a smooth bead.

[@pal7252]

OMG, call me crazy but this was very fascinating. And yes I understood the pitch numbers. 😉

[@iJmoney210]

Very nice how you actually show how to measure and cut to obtain end results. Most others won’t show that.

[@jpena184]

For some reason I find this fascinating. I’m not even a builder or in construction. Big fan of your videos!

[@rlv3180]

It's SUPER hot in Texas right now. Props to these guys.

[@richardpalmer6196]

Hermano , That was the easiest speed square lesson And math explanation l've ever heard. Nicely done .

[@boriskarloff598]

Always good when the square fits the work space. Cut the angles on your square with a cut off wheel and now you have a mini square.

[@brayanmartinez5434]

Love to watch your videos, another example of why mad is important in real life.

[@jeffreylocke8808]

Simple but exceptionally rugged. Very precise and skilled performance. Thanks for sharing.

[@blksheepdogtonyg.6453]

I like how your employees work you have a solid crew tell them the KZbin people gives them their props

[@hubertrobinson8825]

Hey sir thanks it really made sense to me as a welder working with guys who make marks I just cut and weld

[@michaelbrennan7148]

Thank you for posting. Thanks again for explaining a2 + b2 =c2. :) Speed square is very handy tool. Im not a trades person but I do enjoy seeing the trades at work. Keep the slag to a minimum:) Thank you for posting. Tha

[@Phid79]

If you are making three ( or more) of anything, always make a jig (or mark the ground). This saves time and makes it easier to produce items to the same standard/dimensions.

[@ericgonzales6582]

This is my new favorite channel , been welding awhile now and you guys are pros

[@trueblue533]

I love watching y'all work, it's like watching an artist create something! God bless!

[@jmcintyre1420]

Thank you for being so open and sharing your processes. Its helps a ton !

Awesome job guys

[@MrBest-mr2my]

Hey can you show how they do the curved style rafters I would like to see more in-depth basically step by step how y’all do all this would be kool

[@FVFD29]

I agree!

[@rubenvarela4077]

Yuppppp this one easy

[@johnhester8394]

I would like to see this as well

[@David-jo4gt]

Much respect for what you do! I would never figure this out.

[@derekboone3769]

Looking to build in the future and just want to know what’s the rule of thumb for tab spacing for your purlins ?

[@pep5772]

Da gusto que haya personas que hagan bièn su trabajo. Puedo asegurar que al final del dia se van a descansar orgullosos de lo que hicieron.

[@Paul_Hanson]

Being from Minnesota, a 3/12 pitched roof is a little shallow for shedding snow in the winter. Being an amateur mathematician I like a 5/12 roof because the hypotenuse of a 5/12 right triangle is exactly 13!

[@bdavisonsports]

Thank you!! Thank you, I have been looking for this exact video. I am about to start building a shop and do it myself. Cutting the rafters is big part that is causing me some apprehension. This video is a confidence boost!

[@traineralpaca6344]

Great video! Though I still had to rewatch certain parts 5 times or more 😂 Its cool to see how its done all over the world

[@eriklauritz]

Thanks for these detail videos. Very interesting to watch your process

[@treavormiller9552]

He’s using a $45 harbor freight welding helmet. you don’t need anything fancy you just need to know what you’re doing

😂

[@Shark5060]

I mean fabrication is great and all .. but his chalk pen ... that's amazing.

[@CouncilmanCarabajal]

Great video 👍 Perhaps one day you can show the process of building a continuous truss. Thank you

[@danielvaldez7495]

Erik could you do a video like this one showing how WDMB does their pipe trusses

[@opendstudio7141]

Hurry.. We don't usually have cool weather (95F or 35C) being this close to August. 🥵

[@bigkilla2608]

I was wondering when y'all were going to release an update

[@danielmarek4609]

The historical name for the math of the roof beam is the "pythagorean theorem". It's been in use for 40 centuries! That's a lot of roofs.

[@TheBackyardFox]

Excellent explanation. Math skills put to the test. You mentioned in another prior video you studied computer programming. When hiring programmers I always hired math majors. They make the best programmers.

[@davidmorris3102]

So you buy a speedsquare and use the book that comes with all the rafter lengths in it.

[@cliff4695]

I knew everything but this was very informative. Could be confusing but if you take it 1 step at a time, it's pretty damn easy to understand.

[@garybower1824]

Measuring twice takes too much time. Sometimes its better to wing it then cut or grind a little more off or possibly weld some more on.

[@michaelgonzalez2533]

It made perfect sense, it's just remembering it is the issue.

[@BlenderRookie]

"Hypotenuse".... I have not heard that term in decades........ I don't miss school...

[@Jimmy_in_Mexico]

Thank you for your videos. I built a barn for a guy down here in Mexico and it was 9 foot rise in the middle and the width was 36 feet. It was too much. But he wanyed it done that way. Also we dont have a lot of wind here like yall do so he had me make it with 8 inch perlins welded to form a box and i put a 4X4 inch square tubing brace across the middle 20 feet of the truss then made some verticle square tubing reenforcements. I would like to send you pics but it would just make you shake your head. I did a very good job welding it all up but its not code for the USA.

[@charlesgraham843]

As Kyle at RR Buildings always says. Math never lies.

'3 on 12" So, One-Fourth. (Yes, the practicality of using the foot as the reference for the denominator. STILL, I hate unreduced fractions at a flinch level)

[@trapjohnson]

And NO, I dislike metric even more than I do not like unreduced fractions, so save it!

[@jackielinde7568]

Hey, Eric! At 6:36 You talk about putting the marks on the floor first, and then transferring them to the workpiece. I've seen that done elsewhere, and it's pretty darn cool. When Leo of Sampson Boat Co. realized how far gone the Tally Ho (a sailing cutter from the early 1900's) was, he did the same in the shop. He called it Lofting. Basically, he laid down plywood, filled in the gaps with putty, sanded it smooth and then painted it. Once he had a completely flat and white surface, he drew every line he needed in 1:1 scale for the boat. Then he used those lines to make templates to cut the boat's new ribs, and then marked angles on those ribs to make sure they were faired. And his biggest worry was that something would wipe out his lines. Here's the first of two videos of him lofting the plans: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXytkpqsqtKpeas

[@audiphilth]

How do you calculate the rated load at the peak of the I-beams to know whether you need to add fish plates across those welds, or a horizontal gusset underneath?

[@realazzwardogg922]

There’s no way you’re going to exceed the load capacity of those I-beams on that roof. Unless you park a tractor up there. 😂😂

[@patrickbehan8737]

Great video I'm new subscriber really love the content any chance you could do a video on the curved truss construction please we wouldn't see much of that here in ireland .💪👍

[@oliverarias423]

hello what kind of welding machine are you using very good job

[@patricks7622]

Dang that guy sure made some good welds I'm pretty dang Rusty he would take me quite a while of practicing to match that level of welding it looks about a half a step away from a sub Arc weld I'm semi jealous

[@opendstudio7141]

Maybe he's using 7018 rods for drag welding the butt joint. The Low-Hi (low hydrogen) does run alot smoother, but they need to be stored in a rod oven.

[@thebaconbrotato]

I'd love to learn welding.

[@davidmorrison3100]

Can you show how they make a truss out of pipe?

[@stephanbrown3751]

Looking to get something like these made in the Northeast. How much did it cost to have those trusses fabricated in Texas. Awesome video!

[@faridmahomed3339]

4:20 its not possible to take 3 inches on one side instead os taking 1.5 on top 1.5 bottom??

[@patricks7622]

You sure have a good way of explaining how things are done. you're going to make me into a contractor before it's done I reckon... Somebody sure schooled you well on trig back in the day .. I still get a headache when you say hypotenuse however... BTW, do you ever sleep? Haha good work have fun

[@TexasBarndominiums]

I sleep very little. Lol

Should do a demonstration of all the ways to get the pitch so that way ppl can see a hands on

[@vharrald]

You'd make a great math teacher, especially for geometry

[@JerryDLTN]

5:34 that's "stick welding" as opposed to tig or mig welding, right?

[@TexasBarndominiums]

Correct.

[@edgargonzalez2887]

Would that formula work on pipe for cutting at angles
