His hideous Craftsman style architecture choice is enough of a travesty.

>>1717854
That has to be a joke

How do you long span run plumbing through these osb joists without ruining the integrity by drilling off centre?

>>1717854
Youtube is just fucking garbage but Bitchute doesn’t have shit for Diy. What the fuck is a guy supposed to do bud?

>How do you long span run plumbing through these osb joists without ruining the integrity by drilling off centre?
They have pre-drilled holes for you to use.

>>1717841
There's literally nothing wrong with any of this.
>>1717854
Except this house is uglay as ass.

>>1718014
Yeah I’m not seeing the problem here, as long as it’s been properly engineered who cares?

>>1717854
The architect must've made this as a joke.

post a video series of someone showing a step-by-step house build that you approve of

you won't because you can't, loser.

>>1717841
If someone fucks up the waterproofing the whole house is going to melt. Fucking glorified wood flour house.

>>1717854
Lol. The garage is saying 'fuck this shit, I'm pulling myself apart from his hideous conjoined twin'

>If someone fucks up
do it right the first time and you don't have to worry about water

I have an is floor in my shed and it's a piece of shit that's rotten in 5 years. Building a full size house from this shit tier material is straight retardation

>>1717854
those columns are the ugliest thing ever. what a waste of space and material.

>>1717841
His videos used to make me angry and I unsubbed and don't watch them anymore.
The issue I have with his videos is that they're not instructional at all. He touts them as being instructional but thye're not. He doesn't teach you much of anything.

In a typical 20 min video, most of it is just a sped-up footage of them working on something. Context is minimal and his narration is just him preaching and reminiscing. Nothing is explained in detail... nothing!

These videos are pure entertainment. If you're watching this shit to actually learn how to build a house, you're better off with picking up one of the books on residential construction and studying that for 20min a day. You'll actually learn something this way.

>>1717854
I'm not an architect, can someone help explain to me what is wrong with this and how would they fix it?
Like it's ugly, but I can't describe why.
here is what bothers me
>tapered triangluar posts
>garage is angled
>dark windows with dividers in them
>top of the garage side looks kinda like cedar shakes in pattern/texture, but rest of the house is regular siding
>stone facade in the front

I'm guessing he thought it would be clever to build a Craftsman style house because he's such a great craft$man.
My understanding is it's an odd lot (not looking it up, don't care enough) and he had to shoehorn something into the lot. That fucked up all the angles and proportions and I guess he's using the odd lot to justify making a monstrosity instead of being a craftsman and making it seamlessly fit.

>>1717854
Holy shit that's fugly

We'll have the last laughs anons.
Scott is building it so that he'll outlive this house, a house which is his crowning accomplishment; the pinnacle of his life which he'll rest his hat on for the rest of his life!
Fast forward 20 years when he is on his deathbed, surrounded by his loving family and friends ...
>Everyone has gathered in Scott's bedroom, surrounding him with love - not a dry eye in the room.
>He whispers to each and every person of how proud he is of everyone, and how happy and well lived his life was. He wouldn't have changed anything.
>Then that one grandson with the big mouth stumbles into the room laughing
>But grandpa, that house you built fell down 5 years ago! Mom didn't want to tell you - they thought the news would kill you
>The house fell down and the owners sued and won since you documented all your mistakes so you could get $0.005 per view
>They had to demolish it and your kids have been paying the hundreds of thousands in civil suit costs because you killed a baby. You're bankrupt and blacklisted from ever getting a permit again.
That brief moment as Scott's ego and satisfaction fain, so will his soul ... and bowels as he leaves one final mess on this earth.

It's an amazing series of videos! You'll learn more from these three videos than from all of the EC videos. Even the 'string tying trick' that EC popularized is in the Larry's videos!

>>1718617
>plywood floors and sheathing
>OSB roof sheathing
>only framing
yeah sure that's so much better
Haun's got a few more details here, Scott's got a few more details there, but in respect to framing it's basically the exact same content.
Seeing Haun's in addition is really just to see the slight difference in the way different framers do things.

>>1717841

what's wrong with engineered I joists and osb subfloor?

>>1719405
i guess people here want to spend a fortune on lam beams and hardwood 3/4 ply
they can if they want but they'll pay out the ass.

>>1719347
What do Europeans use?
Where are the European home building videos?

Criticize all you want, but if you offer nothing, your comments are useless

>>1719407
Yeah, and have your shit joists desintegrate because the glue and spit holding everything together don't last more than 30 years.

Lol. Cope harder you no-osbers

>>1719436
I don’t see the issue. Most people won’t stay in the same house for 30 plus years. Everything is Osb now. Might as well just do damage control on your house, and raise a family so the kids move out at 18 and you can get another OSB house to die in.

>>1719422
Europeans build houses from brick that don't fly away every time the wind blows a bit fast.

>>1718116
It's the fucking croat who won't shut the fuck up about his shitty favela bricks.
He's never going to stop until he gets rangebanned or something.

>>1719436
Yeah, but can you really blame someone for not caring whether a house will last more than 30 years, when the country that it is located in going to be Brazil tier in just as much time?

>>1719660
The real catalyst is people like you accepting shitty work, which collectively causes our country to slide into the shit pile.

Acknowledging what is going on =/= I like or condone OSB usage.

>>1717921
How do you do it with dimensional lumber?

Why are these OSB joists bad again? Or is this just people feeling that they have to be bad because they think so and feel so?

Should build it like the ones in the Caribbean. Reinforced concrete blocks for the wall panels and cast reinforced concrete columns and beams for anything structural.

>>1718336
Imagine thinking wood planks won't rot.

>>1719596
The muslims are going to love your brick houses once you've been outbred.

>>1719859
Do you really think the problem in your image was the OSB? Look at the solid wood.

I did some researching myself and I found how Russians frame their homes:

https://youtu.be/tpNE2JEffYU

Not bad. I'm surprised Communism and their commie flats didn't destroy the crafts skill.

>>1720080
that's old growth timber
nice

https://youtu.be/xAn41qwKTBU

Here we have a Romanian build. I'd guess the central European style.

thing you notice is the
>Structural brick with no steel reinforcement whatsoever
>PITA electrical and plumbing
>timber framed roof
>use of chain saws
>non use of pnematsic air nail gun

>>1720080
You serious? Id take osb over this foundation any day. I wouldn't put any money on this staying flat or dry for very long.

>>1717854
Fix the columns, detached garage. Suddenly an 8/10.

>>1719864
they dry just fine without rot. if you have enough water leaking in to rot wood you will see it

>>1720418
yeah look at the womp down the joist already

>>1720080

Daily reminder that being pro-brick is not racism against Amerifats.

Ive seen some Amerifat historical architecure and it had actual brick in it (risky due to quakes and fires I know, what were they thinking, thank God that Home of the Brave now made primitive brick illegal!!!!). PS - I have some Amerifat friends and I wasnt racist against them.

Ive seen worse,the garage is obviously comical and pillars are as well, but Ive seen worse, it has mistakes, but it would be too harsh to call it mcmansion.

>What do Europeans use?

Reinforced concrete + brick or all RC+insulation. You should use more RC in civil construction as well, more secure and better ROI in the longrun.

The cope is quite hilarious.

No way

>>1719912

OSB Acts like a sponge it stays moist for months
so ofcourse Wood in contact with moist OSB rots

a solid wood construction dries within days after the source of water ingress is removed.

>>1718789

>>Rotting wood

wood can rot away, as can concrete, brick or rock...what is your point?

>>1717854
Love the fake columns made of HDB. Fall apart as soon as the water gets in.

wow that is the ugliest laid brick I have ever seen
>lemme just have absolutely no standards about how much mortar I should shove between these bricks :DDD
>is ok nobody will see even though there's huge fucking chunks of mortar missing from the walls
I'm guessing the croatian equivalent of mexicans built these houses

>>1719864
dimensional lumber takes years to rot, and holds together in the meantime. osb falls apart after just a few wet/dry cycles.

>>1721760

>risky due to quakes and fires
>fire

Wood is better against fire than brick?

>>1722896
The croation immigrants of Salem, Mass built it

Is ICF good? Or am i falling for shilling?

>>1717841
I just unsubbed from this guy. His latest video is just him shilling some shit for the holidays so he can get money from all those affiliate links. When these Yt personalities start shilling and advertising their affiliate links, I unsub. So long Scott & Nate.

>>Structural brick with no steel reinforcement whatsoever

Floor and beams above windows are RC and why is no RC on loading parts of the wall ("hal-timber position") a good thing? Its cheaper and faster not to use RC columns.
RC columns are much stronger than just bricks, they arent necessary on low rises.

>>timber framed roof

this is good or bad depending do you isolate the roof and make it livable. We do timber roofs here as well but Im biased towards a concrete roof.

>>1719863
>Reinforced concrete blocks for the wall panels and cast reinforced concrete columns and beams for anything structural.

for panels its wiser to use terra bricks since isolation, but RC columns ftw!

>>1725222
>100 tons
37 tons dynamite, 40 tons tnt to be exact and it took 10 years
