@@LarsonLake What you think is your opinion. Fine. ... "remember that she makes money from each video" ... You know that how? YT demonetizes a lot of videos.

Why does my brick home get hot at night & cold during the day unless it’s mid summer 😂 that’s what I wanna know, I’m dying in my place at night it’s so hot without a AC I couldn’t survive!

@@HughMadBro if your house is double brick with an air cavity you shouldn't be experiencing that. If it is brick veneer then then the thermal effects are exactly what is experienced without insulatated external walls. An insulated ceiling only compounds the problem by not allowing the heat generated within the bricks from escaping through the roof. So the bricks are heating up throughout the day with exposure to the sun then releasing it throughout the night into your house. They are cooled by the night air thus aborbing part of the heat they released thus cooling inside in the early hours. It is a viscous cycle of brick veneer construction.

@@darrellturner560 So is there anything that can be done to reduce this effect?

@@orchdork775 tricky question without knowing the circumstances. Exhausting the roof space with a wind driven whirlygig can help. Improving crossflow ventilation is one of the best solutions. Ceiling fans is a good way of doing that. Shading the external walls somehow is a big help. I don't recommend growing trees around your house as that only brings other, sometimes much bigger issues. Verandahs and awnings are a good option.

@@HughMadBro because the bricks soak up the blazing sun all day long and release it at night, by the morning the heats gone,as the sun went down 8 hours before & now the bricks are cool,untill the sun warms them around 1-2 in the afternoon I think

@@Bustermachine It’s possible that KZfaq removed threatening comments. & it’s also possible that she blocked them, therefor removing their comments.

I like the container idea, and have watched lots of videos on them, but they ARE a total pain in the arse to insulate. For the amount of money you spend buying a couple of containers, you could buy lots of wood and build a wooden based 'Large' cabin instead, and wood is a much better insulator then steel is. ;)

@@aamram85 I don't really think the majority of people get offended about everything now days. In my opinion the few are just getting louder with the use of social media.

Now you can share it with everyone and get loads of attention out of it. Which is another reason I think they get outraged so much, for the attention.. People have done crazier things for attention..

Look into other small home options

Yeah this whole shipping container thing has become glamorized to the point where it's really not much cheaper. Just spend a little more money and have something that will last and is much easier to sale later if one chooses.

Im on the fence on the subject but when you think about it. Whats better for the environment. Wood house that you cant use second hand wood so all them trees need to be chopped down to make the beams for your house or The shipping container that was made with or without your home and served its use already. Making it a home is simply making it so instead of a part of your house build process being the destructing of trees, turning trees into wood beams etc, we skip that and there is no impact to the earth from extracting resources from it. Now if you are buying a brand new container then that is different. That would mean the resource gathering and manufacturing of the container was done 100% for the house and not to transport goods

Basically. Why take resources from the earth to build your house when you can recycle in turn we use less of the earths resources

China

If you need to build an entire structure around the outside of the container, then the obvious question is: what was the point of the container?

@@leigh9360 My thought exactly.

What is EMT? some kind of conduit tube? I've always thought shipping containers worked well as a shed or shop, even a garage. But not to live in.

@@jacobw3652 Yes, Electrical Metallic Tubing. If you see metal conduit somewhere it's almost always EMT, as opposed to rigid metal conduit which is much thicker and is threaded to make connections, like gas pipe. EMT is too thin to thread. Most any building method can produce a useful dwelling if it's done properly, but I agree with you. I love my container for secure storage, but that's it.

Minor point: being a bad idea is not the same thing as being a scam. Scam implies fraud or intentional dishonesty. Do we know whether shipping container homes are a scam or just a bad idea?

@@piotrm0 That's a fair point. I guess the reason I would consider "scam" a fair assessment is that they are very commonly promoted as a quick, cheap, and environmentally-friendly solution, when in fact they are often none of these, especially not the last one. More importantly, the people marketing them as such would have to know this, having run into these issues themselves. So is it 100% a scam? I don't think so; I think there are legit uses and situations for container buildings. But it's not unfair to label a video about the scam side of it with the word "scam".

@@piotrm0 "scam" is a loaded word, and not the the most descriptive and correct word to use, sure, but it also wasn't a completely incorrect word given the colloqual use of "scam" in everyday english. the accusations of clickbait were totally disproportional to the quality of the video. the video was concise and all the points were relevant to the topic. meanwhile, much lower quality, more clickbait-y videos from other creators seem to get a fair pass for using more eye-catching, less accurate titles. imo, it's not the "clickbait" they have a problem with. it's that a professional and woman of color was dispelling a popular trendy fantasy, as evidence by the harassment based on her identity.

I think the issue is (assuming the word "scam" would mean "knowingly misleading to extract profit") that the video didn't clearly illustrate that fact. Usually the "scam-revealing" video type focuses on somebody making money by tricking others first, and why the idea is bad comes second to that. But the video in question just mentions how much attention these homes get and that there are issues that get overlooked, but doesn't make any allegations that someone actively hides that info from public or makes profits that they really shouldn't have if it wasn't for their misinformation. I don't disagree with the assessment that it might actually be happening, just saying that it might've created expectations about the video that weren't matched. That being said, absolutely doesn't justify the amount of fuss it created, but I see it as miscommunication that could've been avoided

“Scam” was, for sure, click bait. Skipping that and only using the rest of it is pretty dry and many people won’t… click. I don’t see it as a scam. Just a dumb trend that’s not well thought out.

Ugh....this right here.

@@butchjohnson9736 oh man, the sooner LA spends 10 billion dollars of taxpayers money replacing their archaic infrastructure with a hyperloop network, the sooner they can show the rest of the world how much better things can be

I think people just really want everything to be reusable, even though some things are designed to do only one thing well.

But unfortunately they're spending a lot more money on it this time. And they don't get to go back to their comfy bedroom at night. I hope it works out well for them. Really, I do. But I'm glad I'm learning before doing something like that myself.

I think the problem that some people have with the few videos I've seen from her is that they're one-sided and negative in their arguments, without any counter balance. I'm an architectural sustainability consultant, and she makes some really good points! I'm not in favor of shipping container homes 90% of the time, and the 10% is usually due to the cool factor and not because it's a better method. But the video in reference was a bit of a takedown video without saying what the preferable alternative was, so it's not as educational as it could have been. She did mention a couple times of how it was cheaper to build with wood, but I think the average person would walk away from that video saying "shipping container homes suck" and not "this type of construction is better than shipping containers, and here's why". Again, she makes good points, but I'm not sure who's being helped by her being right.

@@jonmatle Thats a good point! It would have been nice to see more of a balance in the video. But, in this case, I didnt come away thinking that "shipping containers suck. I just hadnt thought about it serious enough to consider the stuff she said when imagining all the cool stuff I could do with the containers. Originally, I just thought it was a cheap way to make a cool house, which it doesnt seem that way anymore. Shipping containers are just another tool to create the sort of house you want to, rather than a silver bullet to avoid cost and building a frame.

They bought the pitch!

I don't think the anger has much to do with the topic. Some people are looking for any reason to be upset because there is a certain class of person who is looking for a reason to let their real self out of it's box and somehow being angry is a justification for personal insults, misogyny, racism etc.

@@jonmatle Honestly? I was considering a build, I hadn't considered the structural points, the possible condensation issues or the thermal issues. She has likely saved me some time/ money .

I live in Canada and I wish I could just build a concrete block house one room at a time, like the ones I admired in Baja, and be able to live in it comfortably. Oh well.

Some people seem to forget that shipping containers are just that - a metal box meant to hold goods for 1-3 months during transport during which they will not have any breech, like opening of doors or anything. Some even have cooling and freezing capabilities for the goods. None of them are made for living, least of all permanently. I understand the desire to reuse them, but why not use a 20ft container as a shed in the garden that holds your summer activities for the winter, the lawnmover, garden utensils, table, chair and anything else that will look poor if outside left over winter. Especially plastic chairs and tables get an ugly patina. With wood furniture you could fold them down and set them aside in a shed repurposed from a shipping container. You could also has part of set up as your garden workshop and move your tools to your basement over winter. if you don't care about all you have to do to make it livable and the chemicals in the paint and the poor quality of the metal and the fact that any cutting into the frame will need new supports and you don't care about your money by all means go and ''save'' a container from being melted down when it is a end of life.

​@@chrisdrysdale4311 I completely forgot that most other countries have regulations on buildings... in Mexico all we've got is "kinda" "maybe" "probably" zoning and even then no one cares... If you buy a lot, you can mostly do whatever you want with it (as long as no one complains, better said, you don't bother the neighbors), I think only in historical sites it's more regulated (and again, you can tell them to F-off and they mostly do)

Same! I'm from Venezuela and that corrugated metal look is always associated with poorness here, because we only really see it in what we call "invasiones" where people just start building houses out of scraps in abandoned land. It was really weird at first to see it's actually a trend lol

same in most countries. poor areas have corrugated metal shelters. no real organized paths or roads. and families strive for permanent shelter so they start making walls & rooms one at a time from brick or concrete.

The problem with the low IQ people is that, if someone spot the light on a displeasant reality, they process it in a way that person is somewhat responsible for its existence -like some sort of dark magician- rather than taking it as a heads up about something they were not yet to be aware of. They believe in people manipulating the facts rather than pointing them out.

She's an interesting person for sure. Some of what she said in the scam video has been debunked as wrong. Some of what she said was true. Some of what she said was her opinion that is a minority view point in the architecture world and first time home builder world. I respect the hell out of her for her ideas though, and hope she gives people like myself(first time home builder/buyer in the next 6 months) a good alternative if she's so down on container homes.

The title perfectly encapsulated the video and detailed how the whole thing is a scam. They don't save the environment, are unsafe, mostly impractical and haughty. People overpay for the aesthetics and use wasteful methods to make them viable home or they propose to use weathered scrap to build affordable housing or homeless shelter. They pat themselves on the back as they tell the poor to live in literal garbage.

The provocative click bait title is probably part of the reason people got so riled up about the video. She could have named it "Why Shipping Container Homes are Overrated" and I'm sure the response wouldn't have been as vitriolic.

I work in construction and have never heard anybody talk about using containers. A couple carpenters can frame out a large shed sized building in a couple days. Of course I've seen tons of dumb stuff. Recently, saw a home built in Sweden(?) using recycled wood that was then disassembled and shipped to Colorado. $12M. The carpenters are my buddies and I've seen them deliver better quality for 10% of that.

That was something that as a northern Midwesterner was immediately on my radar when it came to container homes. There's a reason flat roofs are very uncommon for homes in the northern Midwest - the roof has to be *at least* 10 degrees in order for the snow to fall off at a bare minimum. If you get a heavy snowfall followed by a cold snap (which is extremely common) and you've only got the minimum pitch on your roof? You'd probably better get out there with a snow rake and remove the snow from your roof. No need to court roof collapse, you know? I think the average roof pitch is around 30 degrees just to be on the safe side, but I'm not entirely sure on that. It's going to depend on your state as to what the actual building codes require and for some reason, commercial buildings are allowed to have flat roofs here - which is part of the reason they all seem to suffer leaks after a certain number of years, no matter how good the drainage system they build into the roof is.

The sound of rain hitting the metal roof would be almost unbearablw

@@TheLakabanzaichrg disagree there. I grew up in a house with a tin roof in TX. It was..... beautiful, to listen to, and to this day, I have an absolute love of rain hitting my car's roof as well.

I have to agree. she did an excellent job describing some of the challenges one might face in using a shipping container as a foundational start to a tiny home. All good points to be considered if one chooses to follow this path.

I was thinking about that, too. My brother is building a schoolie. Not because it's cool, but because he wanted to be able to move it. But I worry for him about condensation now. He has a small fireplace inside that should help reduce moisture. And he insulated with wool, which is supposed to be more resistant to moisture and mold. But I still have a little concern for him. I really hope he will be happy in his home.

@@shawnchong5196 Hi mate, maybe watch it again and things may get become clearer for you to understand. And yes I do have extensive experience in the building industry. Have a good one Shawn.

@@lachness3578 nah, she's an architect, and calling it a scam is ridiculous. I've been on 50+ large scale residential/industrial/commercial sites for >70% of construction (minus foundation). Also countless sites for sub contracting. I've never been part of container shipping built homes, only perused other contractors sites who performed them and discussed it. I have spent many a year working and living in on site container offices. This garbage she's spewing is so one sided, she's totally not in tune with construction. I am not saying container homes are good, I'm just saying I've been to so many construction sites and know a shit tonne about costs, problems, with all manners of construction: wood, concrete, steel structures, 1-30 story residential, massive commercial shopping malls. For her to make a blanket statement like that is pure stupidity and shame to all architects. She should talk about dimensions, the amount of work required, all the cutting and welding, other than that, the rest of the work is standard for construction. The comments she makes are nothing unsolvable and are common things builders would immediately bring up, it's just are you willing to put in the effort. My opinion is If you want some DIY project, better to just use Styrofoam blocks, I've done two large houses, and that's super easy, though you need to probably hire someone to build the roof, which wouldn't necessarily be the case with container shipping home. What she should also mention is you need more than just one container, you'll need 2 or 3 to have enough usable floorspace: be prepared for a lot of grinding, but nothing difficult. Also just because you build a container home doesn't meant you shouldn't get proper foundations done. There is nothing wrong per se with container homes, again, it's more DIY because you will have to invest time yourself to save money.

@@shawnchong5196 fair enough.

true some comments can be negative and not helpful but by turning off comments, you rely on your own point and your own point by its self can have errors and you'll never improve on those errors because you're too closed minded to listen to others. its better to leave the comments on and skim through them and find the comments that fix your errors so you can have a better perspective.

Any social media where you can vote on comments is going to heavily affect the nature of the discussion: quippy one-liners and jokes will be pushed toward the top, nuanced opinions and ideas will be overlooked or misunderstood, and people will be influenced by seeing how many upvotes other comments receive.

I like that term, it's more commonly know as "green washing" by sustainability buffs. Something appearing to be a green solution or selling that idea, but it's actually the exact opposite.

Greenwashing is a term that means that exactly and is already in the common lexicon! And i totally agree with you.

Yeah I think green washing is the right term as the other comments said. "Environmental Industrial Complex" kind of implies that there is some interaction between environmentalists and industry to make up these bad idea fads, and I don't think that's true (maybe you see it differently). This is instead just non-environmentalists trying to make money by selling something and taking advantage of peoples' desire to do something good. They do it by lying, obfuscating, exaggerating, etc, and they are anything but environmentalists.

@@TheJohnreeves I do think that there is. I think some of the overwhelming evidence is the fact that the moment that we get practical environmental technologies that could positively affect things, the environmentalists immediately find reasons to discount it. The only thing we can possibly use is something that hasn't been invented yet, despite the fact that clean energy sources have been available for over 100 years.

She looks so good in blue, hot! That's her color

Thank you for your insight.

As someone who has lived in containers for several years, I can vouch that they are incredibly suboptimal for long-term accommodation. They are fine for what they are: easily transportable temporary housing that can be easily removed (and recycled) once the need has passed. Once you don't need the transportability, almost any other construction option is more preferable.

This was my first video too. I totally agree with you... on every point.

As an Architect, I can say her videos are outstanding and they should be issuing edu credits to architects just for watching her videos

same here Belinda. I subscribed to your channel after seeing your Playlist keep up the good work

100% agreed!

yeah that is what i think as well if they want a small foot print home why not do with wood and the lining up container to be structural sound also will pose many hindrance and extra cost to make it structurally strong and the insulation of the house if done outside is a better solution chances are they will try to make another form of wall inside to make it look ecstatically pleasing does loosing the purpose of a steel container home
