Building Our New Home! Month 3!

[@myscho]

Interesting how shallow the foundations of a house in the desert can be. In Central Europe, we have foundations about a meter deep, the minimum is about 75cm (more than 3 feet or whatever you use there) this is the depth where the ground does not freeze in winter. My garden irrigation is deeper than your house foundation 😃

[@Ed_Root]

Can’t wait for 2027 when Dan sells this house and builds another new house.

[@Reghardt38]

Lol

[@N0N0111]

Tactically this is how you should do it, design and build a house. Sell it for the prefect profit amount and start with new idea's and experience.

[@Dangerspeed862]

I got dibs

[@-gh7lq]

It’s sad to see that Lincoln is going to move out of the house once the house is fully built. But it’s great to see that Lincoln is finally growing up and hopefully becoming successful In the future. And He has grown up to be a very handsome young man after all!

[@tpad6]

Oh he's gonna be successful alright. That's what good parenting and education does for you! Good job Dan and Leslie!

As a german civil engineer, this is pretty hilarious to see

[@mathiasman]

US construction is crazy too me. You would think it was done in a 3rd world country with no rules. Also weird to see a construction crew wearing regular clothes on a job site.

[@mrjakobt]

It's downright crazy. I poured bigger foundations for my garden shed.

[@blackridgeproductions2738]

Explain what's crazy to you. In Canada our foundations are a minimum depth of 4' but that's because of the frost line. It is climate dependant and load dependent. What is hilarious? Not criticizing just curious to know how you'd do it in Germany.

[@loreignjoy9919]

​@@mathiasmanhave you built in a third world country?

[@replay7776]

It is the desert you don’t need 10 feet of foundation- you should know that as a „civil engineer“

[@aawesome-123]

RIP the two story house owner lol

[@TechWithBrett]

I used to pack in forms to build footings. That is crazy how they just dig a trench and pour it in. I was skeptical... but it looks like they did a great job!

[@TechWithBrett]

@@Eccentech I'm everywhere...

[@HansMilling]

Most houses in Denmark where I live is from 1500 to 2000 square feet, depending if you are 2-8people living there. So your 5000 square feet for just two people is insanely big. I hope some day to be able to go to the US and see how everything is bigger.

[@mrjakobt]

Your 2000 square feet home is quite a lot heavier though. Superior construction method are more expensive. One of many reason why houses in the US are so large.

[@Dailyexotictransport]

So reason it was so wet in the beginning was because it was the slurry mixed in with concrete , slurry mix is what they use to coat pipes and prime pump before pumping concrete . The system uses 2 hydraulic rams that do a continuous push pull motion sending concrete up and through the pipes .

[@Tyler_Brown]

That concrete crew is an OSHA inspectors nightmare & I’d be willing to bet a structural inspector or engineer wouldn’t be super thrilled about them priming the pump into the footing. 30-40 yds for a house footing is rather impressive.

[@Lando_P1]

Very exciting! As a New Englander, it feels strange not to have a true basement.

[@WHATSINSIDEFAMILY]

I do miss basements at times. BUT, I do love the quiet sound of walking around the home and not sounding like a giant stomping.

[@mrjakobt]

@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILY We have basements in Germany and I never heard a stomping sound. The secret is concrete, lot's of concrete.

[@UberHowie]

That's my 2 story house 😮 I'm gonna paint it Hot Pink now

[@jbhindes]

The last outtake has me rolling!! 😂 the inadvertent (?🤔) “That’s what she said” joke, followed by her giggle…and then another one at the end with “That’s actually pretty big” and her again with a, “no!” 🤣😂🤣😂 you guys are hilarious!

[@itsnotme07]

What an awesome place D + L!! Thanks for sharing!! I was asked why I needed a 4 bedroom 2200 sq ft house back in 2011 when I bought my place. Once I explained it....makes sense. I have no doubt yours will too, especially with kids...young adults still at home. Looking forward to the next video!!

[@krisztiank.7924]

How can a house that huge have such small footing, in Romania u minimum need to dig like 1.5 meters.

[@IOSALive]

WHAT'S INSIDE? FAMILY, You're the best! I subscribed because I love your content!

[@lesliemarkham8950]

Thank you!

[@jeffreyferguson83]

Ok, are they now going to put forms up and pour a Slab? In California and Vegas we would pour footing and slab at the same time, I believe it’s called a monolithic slab system, with that system you would dig your footers, run any under slab plumbing, drains and water, then put gravel down and rebar, then pour all at once. Or even a post tension slab which has cables running through it.

[@grantcwills]

I definitely trust those guys doing the footing. Wearing sandals shows you know what you’re doing.

[@nlksh]

The ending was gold!😂

[@siddarthmaheshwaran6180]

It's a sad moment to see Lincon go. I still remember when he was a little boy. But it's great to see him all grown up and successful.

[@jfresh2054]

I thought you were DOWNSIZING?😂 5k sqft properly is not downsizing. You need a 2k sqft house

[@mikefas5406]

For some people, it's never enough.

[@lesliemarkham8950]

We went from 7,850 to 4,800 sq feet so certainly reducing our footprint. Agree it is still a good-sized home. We still want to have bedrooms for each of our kids when they come home that are comfortable for when they eventually have partners (hopefully they'll want to come home and hang out with us!).

[@Da_vinciGaming]

The courtyard counts towards the sqft....indoor/outdoor living

[@lesliemarkham8950]

@@Da_vinciGaming We aren't counting the courtyard in our sq footage, but it is one of the areas I'm most excited to see come together. I hope it is magical! Thanks for watching!

[@chrisracer2007]

I suggest that you make it high tech by integrating everything in a smart home automation system like knx/ loxone, making a bim (building interface management), going with Mitsubishi wr2 geothermal ground source heat pump, and last but not least getting advice from Matt from obsessed garage, to make a ultimate home setup!

[@legojasper1341]

I find it so weird the way you build houses we would never pour concrete into dirt and the rebar would be in casings and the concrete would be poured into that

[@TheLegoman5252]

This is America

[@TinyTymer]

if ur building a custom house why would you have neighbors thats close??

[@N0N0111]

The D + L conversation about purses and shoes was so cute in their new house.

[@Mr_Ashley]

That is Literally the definition of a “foot”-ting! In the UK foundation need to be a a minimum of 1.5 meters!!

[@danm4320]

In the UK we build our homes out of heavier materials and solid walls, so better foundations needed.

[@Icessassin]

Im guessing the 1.5m footing is due to the softer soil makeup of most of the U?

[@mrjakobt]

@@Icessassin Also due to the frost.

[@darkcanys1931]

Wow, that is very shallow, we have brick and concrete houses over here so we need to dig much deeper.

[@mrjakobt]

I grew up in a wooden house. Still had a concrete basement and 1.5m foundation though. Also the wooden beams were literally 10 times the size of what is used in the US.

[@darkcanys1931]

@@mrjakobt yeah, 1.5 is good enough for strong wooden house, theirs is just to shallow.

[@abel5925]

I’m a fan of those flat roof houses, would you be able to show the AC and ducting process? Will it be up top? Do they have like a crawl space? I’m assuming no attic so no traditional space. Also the view you do have is pretty nice

This is what I really enjoy watching how the footings will look like. Working with concrete will tire you out fast. We have H.O.A here , we have a very clean neighborhood , people takes pride in their home and yards. You wouldn't believe how many homes in our area, homes are being built daily. One neighborhood there's 500 homes being built there . The home with 500 homes, it's land is huge , it doesn't surprise me, why because the owner of this subdivison, this man is a Billionaire . I watched one home being built and the walls were put up in 2 days . Who's ever building the one home , they are fast and today they are putting up the Trusses.
