Full Build! I Framing Alone | 24x30 Garage

[@davidmcd8400]

Been in construction for nearly 40 years . I rarely get the opportunity to work alone but when I do I enjoy it . On the next one let's intentionally make the ridge supports 2" low . We can easily block them up to where we need them but going down is much more difficult . Love all the preplanning and prestaging. That work is done while driving to the job in your head . Your laborers don't think that way . Nice job.

[@youtrades]

That's a good idea! I don't know that I would go 2" though Lol

[@joesalazar770]

Reminds me of all the builds I done on my own when I was in construction . Better than the hassle of undependable help and at times the aggregation of the help you might get. I liked working on my own. I built my entire 6800 sqaure foot house all on my own and it's still the greatest home I built to date. Have fun enjoy what you are doing

At 1 point in time I had 37 employees it was a bad ti was basically an extremely high paid babysitter as most of my men were close to my age or older. H*** of a note aint it ? I do have one question about this self build is wherever this person is is does everything just fall into place perfectly level as I've not seen him pull 1 out yet?

[@Just_Chuck_It]

This guy reminds me of my Grandfather. He would build stuff in a day that would take entire crews a week to build. He and I built a deck on my sisters place about 15 years ago. We dug out, set footers, ran joists and built stairs in 1 day. Day two was boards and railings. We did this as he taught me how to do it. If I hadn't been there, he would have totally done it in one day............

[@wintersteelheader7969]

Nice building. I'm a Glorified handyman. Doing light construction and property maintenance & repair with a massive crew of 1. It was enjoyable watching you build. I even learned a thing or 2 to make my work a little easier and definitely more efficient. Time is money. Keep up the excellent work. Some of us are paying attention.

[@mattp4079]

I had two middle-aged carpenters frame my garage and i did this the finish work. They are long since retired and if you could even find someone like that, they'd be booked for months or years.

[@joesalazar770]

Yup and I'm retired at 56 with a sci and if I could still do it if be out doing it. And if I could even find another person to help I could still be doing and passing down all my knowledge problem is no one wants to learn or even listen to what your telling them anymore yet alonestick with it to get a job done. It's kinda sad our young guys don't want independence anymore theuef rather be told what to do than be there own boss. Or sit in front of a screen and play games all-day. It's something I never thought could happen but it is 😀

[@hommie789]

Never to old to learn, I built many a home and garage and never thought of placing the gable ends face to face, or back to back, to cut them with one cut, so simple and looking at it have no idea how I never figured that one out but good to know, I don't do much framing now mostly finishing but something to keep in the memory, oh no i learned something new, what fell out? Question for you, you already use cordless saws and grinders so why not a cordless nailer? Last one I tried was far to heavy but that was many years ago and I think they have got much lighter now, maybe not but I do still use air to brads, small nails and staples.

[@MyDIYAdventures]

I don’t think battery nailers are very practical when 10,000 nails are going into a job.

I would keep my temporary ridge support a bit lower Then you can shim up to the correct height. Use a piece of ridge board to set height an as a spacer between the common rafters. Do both gable ends. String a line from point to point. Now you know your center support height.

[@MyDIYAdventures]

I do try to keep them a couple inches low, it’s definitely easier to shim up then take the support apart to lower it!

[@billybike57]

Great job!

[@MyDIYAdventures]

[@HalfAssHomestead]

My uncle wrapped his house with that crap black board, but it does add an R factor to the insulation factor. And too it is much cheaper than OSB. When he got done with the black board, he added the styrofoam to add another R factor. So when he wrapped his walls with the black board and the styrofoam, his R-13 insulation became like an r-20 which is much more than needed for walls.

[@MyDIYAdventures]

Well, I guess there is an upside to it!

[@robs1852]

Another upside is if he has to make a quick escape. He can just run right through the drywall, crapboard and styrofoam lol. Vinyl siding may take second charge to get through but shouldn't be too bad

[@jeffhildreth9244]

I built my 24 x 32 shop by myself. The only things I did not do... Grade the site , pour the slab, insulate and hang the sheet rock. Everything else I did by myself having never built a structure before. What compelled me to do this was the arrogance and smugness of contractors, obscene bids. What one man can do, another can do. When I got my "final" the inspector said that the building was textbook and better quality than most "homes" let alone shops.

It does help that I had a full professional wood working shop 25 x 25 and was a furniture maker for 2o plus years.. so had some skills and plenty of tools There is no feeling like that of accomplishing something that appears to be daunting. Don;t doubt yourself. Do some research and jump in. There are always folks that can help you if you get in to a corner. BTW My building was not perfect.. Measuring on the diagonal, corner to corner.. I was 3/8ths of an inch off square on a 24' by 32' building.... I'll settle for that. Also I did fall off the roof...It rained just after before I was ready to install the roofing. So I draped the entire roof with black plastic sheeting. and cinder blocks.... When it stopped raining I went op to remove the blocks and the black plastic.. and while at the peak of the roof on my belly, I slid down head first on water droplets and unable to stop. I went off the roof on to scaffolding and it started to fall away. I threw my leg towards the building wall to catch myself and stupidly kicked the wall.. I went down and the scaffolding went down with me and it all landed on top of me. Bruised but not broken. Dumb move : ) I'll never repeat that. Happy New Year

That is a nice garage! Although, I would've specified to the builder that Id rather have it 24ft wide and 30ft deep instead, so that way i could maximize the space much better. So, it would have one giant door on the end wall instead of two on the through wall. Much more space length-wise to put in a automotive lift if I wanted too. Though, a lift usually requires a taller ceiling height than 8ft, so idk how that would work. Lol.

When we build garages for people who are going to install a lift, we usually go with 10’ walls and scissor trusses.

I can’t remember because weather kept cutting days short, but it was like 5-6 days.

[@JNHEscapes]

I’m concerned about roof load. Given the span the 6-8 2x4’s down to the rafter ties aren’t going to support the ridge appropriately. I am jacking an old building currently that had a similar arrangement and the ridge sank nearly 8 inches in the middle over time. The collar ties are too high in my opinion as well. The top 30% is good, but all the way to the top is not doing much with regard to uplift. Not sure where you are, but wind does seem to be a factor. We are seeing so many sinking ridge boards I would have run a spine brace all the way down the middle of the rafter ties and then 4x4’s up to the ridge off the spine brace and then struts down as well for the rafters. This appears to be the absolute minimum and if the clients budget didn’t allow for proper structure design I would have passed on the job. If I was going to brace it that way I would have, at the very least, used rafter ties on every rafter and braced to the ridge on every rafter.

[@MyDIYAdventures]

This design is approved by code here, I’ve built literally hundreds of garages this way and never had an issue. But that doesn’t mean you couldn’t build it your way, nothing wrong with extras!

For that price it would have been cheaper to go pole framed. I guess it all depends on where you’re living. I am in the middle of building a 26x36 and I’m under 30

How is snow supposed to come off and why use osb on the roof

[@MyDIYAdventures]

That’s how everything is built around here🤷‍♂️

[@purelife9000]

Good work, and the tat got the sub, brother!

[@MyDIYAdventures]

Thank you! And thanks for the sub!

[@ja4476]

another good video... just wondering, what do you thing of tie zmax instead of cutting rafters ? building my garage soon and was thinking of using those....

[@MyDIYAdventures]

Check your local building code to see if that is acceptable.

[@Vivisecti0n]

Thank you, you are an inspiration. Im going to attempt this myself in the upcoming months. I cant find 24 foot long dimensional lumber for the rafter ties so it looks like i will have to sister them. My question is, is that safe?

[@MyDIYAdventures]

It’s safe for rafter ties, as long as you aren’t using them as floor joists.

[@pedropinho9111]

Amazing work! Hats off to you! And just to think that I’ve seen a crew of 10 do this and couldn’t even provide this sort of quality!😂

[@MyDIYAdventures]

I ran a crew of 4, and quality would sometimes suffer depending on what jobs everyone would be doing.

[@travisthorburn3951]

Just wished u knew that the osb goes on with the smooth side out and ink stamped side to the outside??Hopefully you don't have issues should always ask if you weren't positive.?

[@MyDIYAdventures]

Then why do they put nail lines on the rough side???

[@workingmansrestorations7071]

Gotta be cool to stand back at the end and look what you built.

[@MyDIYAdventures]

It’s definitely satisfying!
