Step 1 to Framing the Roof Project 150 Roof Framing part 1

We are up to the roof, and the first step is going to be setting all our supporting beams. Once they are in, we can install ceiling joists, then its time to frame the roof. In this video, we'll get into the beam setting. Setting ridge beams up high can be very dangerous, so its always a good idea to discuss the plan and communicate well.
Please remember that I'm not showing the best way to frame, but just the method that works well for us. Thanks for watching!
Oh and another takeaway, if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like KZbin if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course sso.teachable.... I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach. That link will save you $100 off the course and support this channel.

Easy like Sunday Morning I like that you’re always working safely Handrail around your stairs Fantastic performance 🤘🏼

[@nobleroofinggeneralcontrac7961]

Man how did we do it before tela handlers, lumber screws with torque heads, battery screw guns, gas nail guns, shear walls, straps, 3 legged ladders and chip board studs? I do not know but what I do know is the structures we built in the 70s and 80s are still standing almost 50 years later. Watching this is like I am just learning. So many new techniques, fasteners tools. It is an entirely different world. Great work guys. I never thought I would be watching a framing educational video. SMH man we use to use 2x10 and 12 ridge beams back in the day not even joist hangers just a ledger... Where am I? No roof rafter on the gable ends.. I am way behind the times.

[@troycarpenter3675]

And why are homes soooo expensive? "Code"is just another word for "bloat". I smile when I hear term "advanced framing"; essentially what this means is leaving out the board footage that prevents structural creep and sag while adding in lots of special shaped metal connections made by only one or two companies who have successfully lobbied to make them required in the building "code". I've never one single time had an inspector comment on skill. The dumbing down of the building trades is in full beaurocratic swing.

Just came across this channel from shorts love it. Man the amount of times I consider leaving commercial electrical for carpentry/framing. Can definitely say if I didn't get into electrical years ago I would've done framing. Even as a kid always wanted to but after doing electrical with a family friend as a teen fell in love with it.

[@AwesomeFramers]

Sometimes I wish I'd have gone into electrical 🙂

[@JoeC92]

@@AwesomeFramers it's a nice trade but residential, if not doing custom homes, can get boring really quick. When I started my apprenticeship years ago I did custom homes. Spent some time doing subdivision and now commercial industrial. Sadly here in Ontario Canada, carpentry doesn't pay nearly as well as electrical does.

[@natej6671]

By running the numbers, I couldn't get that 32' beam to work at all but when you said that a post will be added to introduce a point load to the floor, then it made sense.

i hope you answer my questions. How many hours did you spent doing the works on framing plus how much is the cost of materials? By the way you are doing a great job and i keep watching your videos.

[@akkillist7864]

Just call each other on phone with headphones.. easy do it all the time.. no hand signals two free hands and no yelling or miscommunication. Coms up.

Great!!! Congrats!!!

[@ChrisDarjany]

Love your videos! …what size nails do you typically run for wall assembly? Our engineer swears we need .162, but the most common we’ve always used is .131, or maybe.148 at times. 16’s (.162) just crack the heck out of the wood, so I always feel they make the structure weaker, not necessarily stronger…especially toe nailing. Just curious what you guys are using on your builds and if you’ve ever had a discussion with your engineer about it?? Or any good tips from your experience. Thanks!

[@nelus7276]

Just saying man, over where I live, we commonly use 2.5 mm and 2.8 mm (like .100" and .110") nails for sheathing while we screw studs and top and bottom plates. Big diameters do split and crack the wood so we just use more thin ones. We can use a lighter nail gun too. I think some engineers are just a bit crazy.

[@viankalobosvalenzuela7456]

Excelente trabajo 👊 💯 saludos

[@Esimmons1717]

It seems like y’all go for larger ridge beams and rely less on collar ties. Can you explain how you decide the balance between ridge and collar ties and why you prefer one approach over the other

[@hectordarbymaclellan6102]

Have you guys looked at the Metabo positive placement hoseless / gasless nailer? uses the same technology as there other 18 / 36v nailers

[@2point..0]

AwesomeFramers That Main Ridge Beam 5.5 x 15 x 32 feet, how much did it weight??? I live on the East Coast and wanted exposed beams for Ridge beam and other exposed beams in similar sizes that you guys use. I called Boise Cascade and they are trying to push me into buying Pressure Treated and boxing the beams in, I said NO, your website stated Alaskan or Douglas fir!!! I want Northern Pacific species !!! Great content, always watch every video and some times twice :~)

[@AwesomeFramers]

20lbs / ft x 32' = 640lbs rosboro.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/2019-03-Rosboro-X-Beam_Guide-FNL_a_Print.pdf

[@michaeljean2768]

Just curious why you guys tend to stick frame your roof vs ordering trusses ? Thanks

[@AwesomeFramers]

About the same price but we control the schedule better. Gives us more options in design and we have open attics

You guys are awesome!!!! Framers 🪚🔨👍🏼!!!!!

How long did you take to frame this simple house?

[@davem3789]

You guys do quality framing. But the space between the houses is too close.

[@johncoleman1935]

Wondering about that too. Look really close to me.

[@bh8666]

Tim, what is the brand and model of those safety glasses with the side shields?

[@danthecarpenterman9463]

I noticed you stood the zip sheathing up instead of railroading it . I was taught not to do that because you span more stud laying down and the staggered joints create a way stronger exterior wall . What are your thoughts

[@kadencurrie9475]

On an 8’ wall you can square your wall with your sheets if you stand them up. Saves a step of squaring and nailing it down before sheathing. This is why we stand sheets. We usually only do it on garages that don’t need to be perfect. Maybe there’s another reason for doing it aswell?

[@danthecarpenterman9463]

@@kadencurrie9475 yeah I understand it’s easier but I was always taught that it is weaker , I can understand why if you are spanning less studs and on long walls it creates hinge effect unlike staggered sheets I was told it won’t pass inspection that way in some areas but not sure how true that is

[@nelus7276]

@@danthecarpenterman9463 He's answered that question before. Depends on the requirements. Seismic area, wind load, roof weight, etc, etc. He said they're usually fine this way, sometimes they need more nails. Like you describe I used to go all out too but I've come to trust my engineer with these things. If he says it's good enough, it's good enough for me.

[@beachboardfan9544]

Why the beam system instead of trusses?

Ridge beam was 1/2" low...coulda used a shim upwards

Hello! My name is Denis, I am Russian and I am against the war, and precisely because of this, and also because from the very beginning of Putin’s criminal war with Ukraine, I openly opposed this, spread (and continue to spread) information on social networks about his crimes, I and my family (beloved wife Marina (I won’t tell you her age), daughter Nastya, eleven years old and son Maxim, five years old) are in real danger on the territory of Russia. Moreover, at the moment it is a danger not only to get a fine or go to jail, but also to be “anointed with blood”, to become an accomplice in these crimes. The only way to avoid this is to run away, leave your homeland, give up everything that is dear here - your loved ones, friends. But Putin left us no other option. I ask you to respond, those who can, who cares, help us, become our guarantor for the political asylum program in the United States of America. No financial obligations, obligations to provide housing are imposed on you, you only need to confirm that you know me (Denis Klimanov) and that I am going to you and that documents related to my political asylum can be sent to your address. If you are willing to help, please contact me on e-mail: [e-mail] or [e-mail]. Thank you and God bless us all!
