They dont do any research into the maximum loads of hardware or even bother to see that its literally designed to be used how you used it. Thank you for posting even though you get hate from idiots, I really like to see how different people build things to give me ideas for the construction that i do.

@@GrimReaping Thanks for clarifying this, as I was unsure but didn't want to come across as an internet jerk. so, if I were to build something similar (but with more piers, 600 sq feet), would you recommend to do anything differently than he did? Thanks

@dammitbobby283 Ай бұрын

You could have poured a concrete monolithic slab foundation for the same price. That 400 sq ft is completely doable by one person as a DIY project. You could even break it down into 3 stages, and pour and finish in 3 days (1 day per stage). Then stain the concrete whatever color you want. I would insulate under the slab but no type of slab heating. It's a short-term rental, just have regular HVAC heat and air mini split and throw rugs around the bed and bathroom floor. Very low cost build.

I'm considering these for a shed and deck but I'd never consider them for a house. Edit: This doesn't seem right though. There's no way the threads can only hold 760lb. It must be in kg or kN.

But before you use OSB I'd make sure your local building codes say OSB is allowed.

Can someone explain how the adjustable brackets sticking out of the piers work? It seems like the entire house is held up on top of these relatively skinny bolts! Are they just that strong? I guess I’m surprised that’s just as strong as the wood beam directly sitting (or sitting within a bracket directly) on top of the pier. Awesome video.

@joshpit2003 9 ай бұрын

When you spin the nut, it pushes down on a washer, which pushes down on the concrete pier, lifting the load. The threads are only there to act on the nut, not the concrete. As a result: They have terrible uplift holding (IE: they can be pulled out), and since they have minimal cross-sectional area (a single bolt) that means they also have terrible side-loading (IE: they can be knocked over). I can't speak as to whether or not these shortcomings would be problematic for the build shown here, but I'm fairly confident this would not pass an inspection.

@devonloerop 9 ай бұрын

Very true, will not pass inspection but this tiny home is not permitted and will not need to be inspected. That's also true that due to lack of cross section they are not good laterally which is why I built the home like a table, all of the bracing laterally is up top and that way it's almost like setting a table down on the piers.

@bradymadden2746 9 ай бұрын

Thanks for the reply, really interesting. Why not just lay the beams directly on the piers? Was it to give yourself the ability to make leveling adjustments?

@bjhiss27 7 ай бұрын

It looks extremely unstable, all that load on small anchor bolts. I don't see how that foundation stays in one piece and will most likely blow those piers out. Once the house is built, it can't be adjusted so any future sinking will still result in an unlevel foundation. They should have just built directly on the piers and at least made it stable. @@joshpit2003

In other words, a double 2x10 beam should have 5 nails (some codes have it as 4 nails, hence why I said “about half”) vertically every 16”.

I just checked quickly on chatGPT, seems a grade 2 3/4 diameter bolt can hold 3500 lbs load on thread. 12 bolts hold 42000 lbs. Assuming the building is 500 square foot and dead load on the floor is 40 lbs per square foot, the total dead load is 20000 lbs, which seems OK.

Your tubes should have been set at 12 to 18 inches above the ground, and then you wouldn't need the 4x4 posts. The beams would then go right into the Simpson hardware, which would make the foundation more solid and you wouldn't require the kickers. Also, your floor joist should have been placed between the beams, not on top of the beams, which is the industry standard. You're making your build much more complicated than it needs to be.

Like many viewers i have serious concerns regarding the use of the bolts and the unnecessary usage of blocking near the end of the joists because you capped them with the 2x12...i would have used a block at the end as a jig to space the joists. Use the braces at every 8 feet from the cap boards and that would most likely suffice for stabilizing the joists. But my biggest concerns is the usage of screws over nails. Screws break wheras nails bend so when that house starts settling, alot of the screws could snap off. Use blue glue nails and you will get the best of both worlds as they will bend when needed but never back out because of the glue. But I do like your video presentation.

@@joefish6546 there are a total of 37 12" piers bracing the posts in all directions. The home would essentially have break all of the braces and push over the deck, which is its own supported structure to bend the bolts. I was just under there yesterday checking as I insulated and it looked perfect. Even checked it with a laser level

Do you have plans for sale?

I have plans for the pacific bin on my website (www.thepacificbin.com) but I do plans to get these plans engineered once I finish the build and list them for sale. That way everyone can build their own cedar hallows and have tutorial videos on how to do it!
