Hi, nice job and one thing I would suggest is that you put a heavy plastic on the ground under the floor so that could be used as storage (if needed later) and or just to keep grass or weeds from growing. There are other reasons but the 2 I listed are the ones I could think of right off the bat. Like I said just a suggestion. Keep up the good work!!

Are you planning to close off the underside with something? Any insulation in the floor? I’m in MN so I would but it probably isn’t totally needed there. Nice work on the foundation and floor joists. Squared up and running. Great start

@Samcraftcom 8 ай бұрын

Yes, but that will be after the building is weathered in above it. I've seen others insulate the floor as they build, but the inevitable rain always happens which means the floor insulation is now wet, probably moldy, and not of any use unless a closed cell foam was used. I prefer to know my insulation is dry and doing its job. :) It sure is expensive enough! It makes for a more difficult insulation job after the fact, but it's worth it to me. :)

@jasonstarr6419 8 ай бұрын

couple of comments: 1) that looks absolutely beautiful. I would have done (and have done) some things differently, but your build is strong, well laid out, square, plumb, level, etc., and you have nothing to apologize for. 2) (try to keep this short). Wife opened an online bookstore in 2003. She quickly grew her inventory to several thousand books. Since she was working from home, that meant, I was constantly trying to find new places to store her ever-increasing inventory. I eventually built a two story, 24x24 building in our back yard - cement posts, 2x8, 3-layer, 24' beams - one every four feet. This build took place just as the housing market collapsed in 2008 and I got a tremendous deal on a full pallet of treated 2x4 - 8' studs. SO, the joists for the first floor were 16" on center 2x4's. added insulation, put 3/4" tongue and groove plywood and it held just fine until we sold the place. Second floor was 12' - 2x10's, 16" o.c. with a stringer at the outside edge and at the center. the upstairs was rock solid, but no overlapping joists. Again, fantastic job. I've enjoyed watching your progression on this build.

@flatlander523 8 ай бұрын

Looking really good. I'm sure you are getting anxious to get it done. My recommendation is to overdue everything; lighting, outlets ventilation, etc.. More than you think you will ever need. I had to get an electrician in this week to add several 220's and a box for my forthcoming MiniSplit. Look at the Pioneer Mini Splits when the time comes.

@lindamaskus5142 8 ай бұрын

Yes, I just watched another channel that got pioneer mini splits. I guess they're the best.

@Samcraftcom 8 ай бұрын

I am trying my best to learn from all my other projects on this one. :) I have planned for outlets every 4 feet around the perimeter of the workshop and a few in the ceiling and floor. For lighting, I'm planning on LED recessed lighting and at least 40 lights in the space across four lighting circuits. I'll run at least one 240v outlet for an electric heater unless I can afford a mini split, but that is not looking very likely right now. Heat to get through Winter is the requirement right now, and I can plan to add in the mini split around early Summer after saving the money for one maybe. :) Thanks!

Great job, are you going to insulate between the floor joists before you lay down the decking? If so I suggest you install chicken wire on under side of floor joists and just drop in your blanket insulation. Thanks for sharing all the knowledge you gain from your projects. Love your channel!

@Samcraftcom 8 ай бұрын

You don't want to insulate until the building is weather tight. Otherwise rain will seep into the areas and create mold/mildew.

This is the style framing that is used around me. Don't forget to roll on your bubble wrap along the length of your floor joists. A 6° - 8° F heat savings and bug /rodent barrier, plus moisture barrier is worth the $100 bucks for your building.

Sam you are going above and beyond what many contractors would do today to build this beautiful building! I have built three homes for my self over the years. One slab and two pier and beam. As an Electrical Engineer turned airline pilot I was never a framer but as a kid I helped a neighbor in the summers building houses. So I had a lot of support and and good foundation for building my three homes. I did everything except the HVAC and the roofing.😁🛫

Enjoying the project! Overlapping your joists does mean they will not be exactly square and you will get some 'run out' on the ends of your 8 x 4 sheets. The second row in (on each side) will be the most at risk. Hope it is okay and you dont need to add short 'sisters'.

@EngineersHomestead 8 ай бұрын

Looking back, I wish I'd left my rim joists unblocked in my detached office building. The front got shoved out a smidge and made my sheathing overlap a little wabi sabi. Did you run into any unevenness in the top of the overlapped joists? A power planer could make quick work to fix it.

Sam I am curious as to why you didn’t just pour a concrete slab ? You are doing a great job on the building. Thanks for your good videos. Take care.

@Samcraftcom 8 ай бұрын

The cost would have been much more and a good part of it be done by professionals to be correct. There is over a 24" drop in grade from end to end so a lot of engineered fill would have to be brought in and compacted to then have a slab poured on without cracking and structural issues. Even then, they would be likely. This is a building method I am able to do myself.

@Samcraftcom 8 ай бұрын

You're just about right! It's about 300 square feet smaller than our home is.. wow! In regards to power, it will stay the same as what I have now, but I hope to upgrade my off grid system to take on much more of the power work load. The most energy hungry device in my workshop is the garage heater (7,000 watts). Otherwise the things I use are fairly lower in power demands.

@RavenusFlamingo 8 ай бұрын
