Most commercial jobs won't allow for stud to have splice . Often they require the studs in the header to be one piece . Before people decide to go be master box header builders in comercial settings. But I like this guy and the video how he explains . Good way to teach my guys how to learn the basics .

[@ConstructionKronies]

Sometimes the box beams are structural and yes we don't splice those but for regular openings like this its okay to splice. Exterior heavy gauge no splice but for an interior light gauge all good! Thanks bro for the comment I appreciate it always!!

Those glasses look slick on your hat

Im also man enough and smart enough to know when to put them on my eyes bros💪✌️

[@jlgordey]

LOL, I ha to sign in just to comment on your language...Thank you for being real. Your vid is great, it is just what I need to complete the reno on my RV (I am installing a wood stove and plan to replace the present wood construction with metal studs. I will need to replace windows and the slightly arched roof so it's going to be interesting, LOL. I am looking forward to it. Thank you. I appreciate what you are doing because it seems to be for REAL people.

[@ConstructionKronies]

Thank you very much, that's my goal, is to be completely real and show the truth behind building and the trades. Appreciate you 🙏

Really good video, learn alot from this.

Right on man appreciate the feedback thank you!

Best video I've seen 💯

[@ConstructionKronies]

Thanks 👍

[@MandeepSingh-hk4xv]

Informative as usual 👍👍👍

[@ConstructionKronies]

Thank you my friend!

[@jlgordey]

how would this differ if it was an outside load bearing wall?

[@ConstructionKronies]

The gauge of steel will be 18 or 16, everything else the same. However, with the heavy gauge I would use track clips instead of angle and would leave 1-1/2" on either end for the studs to slip into the clips. Hope that makes sense bro!

[@zazamen1114]

Nice work

[@ConstructionKronies]

Thank you!

[@lunatik9696]

Please specify the type of steel stud used. gauge and coatings, brand of inclined

[@ConstructionKronies]

Using Bailey Metal Products, 25 gauge steel stud. It's galvanized z690 I believe.

[@madinaharabiccoursebyabdul4179]

Can you do pull ups on the box beam?

[@ConstructionKronies]

I could yes👍

[@madinaharabiccoursebyabdul4179]

@@ConstructionKronies Really! I didnt think those beams have that much tensile strength. Thats awesome. Do you think its needed for 6 ft openings. Double doors, 1- 3/4" thick?

[@ConstructionKronies]

Yes any opening 5' or larger!

[@JohnSmendrovac]

Try it 😊

[@adventurouspeach9043]

this is so dope bro..💪💪💪

Cheers!!!

2:16 What is that type of laser leveler called?

[@ConstructionKronies]

Line laser, check out dovoh on Amazon! They sent me a sample product and it works great. Nice case shoots 90s good for 30 to 40' at a time. If you want superior laser and will spend whatever it takes go hilti.

Gracias brother!! I appreciate the feedback!

Nice! 💪💪💪

Thanks 🔥

[@juaninfantes800]

Have a question , on a partition non bearing wall, the studs 25 ga. can be use for walls in commercial job?

[@ConstructionKronies]

Yes they sure can. Use 6" for plumbing walls and 3-5/8" for the rest. Make sure the walls have carrying channel every 4'.

[@paulroest6862]

Depends on the length of the stud. 20 ga stud should be used beside doors and openings.

[@ConstructionKronies]

FBM, Foundation Building Materials, they have the best quality everything, great pricing and delivery. I'd use them for everything if I could.

[@belcyfabiolagelvez8435]

linear poe metal framing price?

[@ConstructionKronies]

I start at $4.50 and go up to $15 per linear foot depending on height and complexity.

[@IzziedeD]

i like how you double and triple check the measurements and correct them even if its a tiny bit off. curious what went in there, like a pass-through window for a restaurant or something?

[@ConstructionKronies]

Yes 100% a pass through windows for a Denys restaurant

[@test-eq9vp]

👌👌👌👍👍

[@westonroberts221]

[@matttrevino8308]

Should of put a tongue on your studs then you can set your header easier

[@MrWhizite]

Are you using 1” self taping pan head screws?

[@ConstructionKronies]

#2 Philips wafer head, modified truss, #8 9/16" regulars for light gauge and self tapers for heavy👍

[@edmer1]

Do you charge more for box headers or that just goes into the square footage price?

[@ConstructionKronies]

No I don't, just charge it in the linear foot or Sq ft price but always consider it when deciding that rate.

[@1mandrywallarmytv144]

@@ConstructionKronies 30 dollars a foot here for 10ft walls . Slap a hard lid on top. doing 22000 JOB 2 WEEKS BY MY SELF. LOVE SEEING OTHER S DOING THE DEAL. KEEP IT UP!

[@angeloshamus2870]

Clamp the corner then walk the screw down. Just works and looks better.....

[@brahyama.merlinjimenez6400]

The angels where you sit the bean you make it

[@ConstructionKronies]

Yes, just normal 1-1/4x1-/1/2" light gauge angle cut to length, this case 5-3/4" for a 6" wall👍

[@danielroberts7627]

Huh? Lol

[@philp3914]

The trick is building on a solid flat surface. You probably have a twist in your box header.

[@ConstructionKronies]

The trick is where you clamp it, that baby is straight as an arrow bro 💪 appreciate the feedback.

[@thomasanderton2057]

You really need to determine your high side first and only make one mark per attachment. Not sure what the deal is with the extras marks and "moving it up a bit". That just creates a point of misinterpretation...

[@ConstructionKronies]

Yes High side and carry across. The first marks are just to see the high side, Then I square across. You the same dude who commented on the double stud corner? That was a live stream segment someone must of asked or said something about if that was okay, and sure man, Ive seen it all, more is always better than less especially with double layer. But usually no never double stud a corner.

[@thomasanderton2057]

@@ConstructionKronies okay, but why make the initial marks to find the high side. Just measure it. Just my opinion. Because I've found that any extra step you put in takes time and cuts efficiency, but also leaves an oporrtunity for your team to make a mistake on. This may sound rude or arrogant, but I try to make my work dummy-proof for those around me. Again though, just my opinion I guess.

[@ConstructionKronies]

@thomasanderton2057 the reason I like the marks is it's easy to use as a guide to keep square across the stud if you know what I mean. I just make the initial ticks so when I put the laser I know the high side immediately and can move the laser or keep it on the one it's at then I square across the good ones.

[@hectorlopez-oz5wn]

What gauge are those metal studs?

[@ConstructionKronies]

Hey there Hector, these ones are light gauge 25g. If you want I have another box beam video for heavy gauge, just search box beam on my channel video page.
