2x12 Floor Joist Solo Install

The beam is prepped and the floor joists need to go in, we went with 2x12 floor joists over an 18" floor truss system as it was pretty overkill and definitely overpriced for what was necessary.

Do you need a permit to add on a room on your house?
Not a huge fan of the c claps. Started bending my bed rail and felt i could keep going for day's. Its toght though. Is the nut supposed to be towards the bottom of the clamp?
Very informative !
Thanks you really help me out a lot
Wrong nails😮
I really thought that you will put the mug in the hole😅😂😂
lol basically like one step down from filling it with ramen 😂😂😂
can you go back by and do an update video on this? i share the concern of the other commenter. . . kinda seems steep for a knock off post & beam . . . half the wood hang'n in that is decorative at best and some of the critical joints appear to be dangerous jokes. . .i wanna see how it's endured just out of sheer curiosity because again as the other commenter pointed out it seems a bit steep vs the quality. . . looks nice, you guys knocked it out i'm sure the way they designed it just say'n :)
I’ve taken it apart and finagled it in for years man this is great, you deserve two comments
My man!!!!
There's a drill attachment for plucking?? Mind blown.
Great build! I don't know why but I looked at this build and was thinking it was $1000 lol but that's not bad
Clean work. Ty
Hi, what's the best way to connect the new to the old? Do we need to lap plates, extend joists into old, etc or is it enough to nail face to face and lap sheathing
it was satisfying but yet also scary!
A BIG Thank you for this info !!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
. . . . .how many acres is your homestead. . / / / / /
Tv looks…hmmm…big. Otherwise, good tutorial
This is all excellent, apart from the safety concern for the gentleman doing this work. Working on his own walking on walls and trusses up high, it takes a second of lack of attention and dizziness to put him off balance. In my country we build stone/brick walls and concrete roofs, so all this looks rather flimsy to me, and a great fire hazard. It takes great faith to rely on those flat metallic parts to join/hold those truss members together, I just wonder how they hold when the wood ages and dries, and flexes . I lack experience in how those trusses hold the compression and tension members together, They would not be accepted in making wooden spars for aircraft!
If painting, prime those knots with an oil based primer or Shellack to keep the resin from bleeding through
Thanks for this video.
How long did this take???
Thank You. Just the Info I Needed. Greatly appreciated.
The vast majority of people who attempt to ding projects like this themselves will end up with a result they will not be happy with, or decide to hire a contractor in the end. I see it often.
I’m adding a bigger bathroom to my house and a extra living room. It’s going to be a challenge and take a while but ima get it done. I’m doing 10ft ceilings though while the rest of the house is 8ft. I rather the luxary style added on while I update the rest of the home.
The ledge goes all the way around my basement too, 12" wide boards had to get 8 ft long sections the 22' length wall going to need 3 boards connecting to span. Trying to find nicest way to join them
That concrete pour brought shame to this house.
Thanks for the great input 😂
Thank you much - very helpful!
Troglodytes and Swine, 2 things God hates the most.
Good job brother 👍🏻💯🙏
Can you just cut and bridge showrt this wires?
3:17 does it hurt?
Want to know how you secured the top plate of the short part of the frame
How did you determine which sensor was bad?.
Fantastic
Thank you so much 😀
I'm about to do this on my first build next week. Why did you stop a foot below the top of the foundation wall? I was planning on going to the top
Nice, yeah i stopped because i didn't want it exposed above grade as there will be exposed concrete. It really depends on how you plan to finish/side it.
Thanks brother cause I was confused
Ofcourse man, thanks for supporting our channel!
Don’t understand why the screws are not all on the ribs.
Okay.
Because there's nothing under the ribs, and the manufacturers say to put the screws in the flats.
Where is the water tank ?
Can I use for outside?
Heartharrasing
Looks like a great week. Kudos to you and working alone.
Thanks! Sometimes its nice, other its the worst haha.
Thank you for teaching people. We have over 70 birds this is our first time
Watching with curved lens is off putting
Thanks for the feedback, I have been trying to mix it up with some shots and its hard to get a bunch in view without that angle.
Sehr saubere und korrekte von dir. Grüße aus Germany von Rudi
Vielen Dank Rufy, ich schätze die Unterstützung!!
You showed us how to nail in boards to the wall. Thanks
Youre Welcome👀
The nice thing about putting money into your house is your not really losing money because now the house is worth more then the money put in
Thank you so much ,I am building a small front porch with roof and I couldn’t find a good footing video,yours is perfect,love the family around you ,hard work for sure ,but very well done ,blessings !
Wonder how this is working 3-years later. Can you share? I've been watching lots of tips out there and they say to use non-woven filter fabric create a burrito wrap with rocks and pipe in it. The fabric would protect the pipe from dirt eventually seeping through the rocks and clogging your pipe. Did your system fail? I installed one before with the weed barrier and it sort of failed, but went ahead and removed the weed fabric and it was like magic! It worked great... Let me know....
This was awesome. I'm wanting to build onto my home and after watching thing, I think I could actually do it! 15x25 foot room wouldn't be too bad afterall.
Why no plywood and tar paper underlayment on roof?
