I feel like I need to learn how to use FrameCAD now that I've watched this video. I love designing using softwares and this video is amazing. Seeing it in the software and turned into real structure is just mind-blowing!

I love this series ! The effort you put into building the house is fascinating in and of itself , but your documentation is just as impressive. Its shot better than most TV shows , the discovery channel has nothing on you guys.

Enjoying watching all of these videos. I've learnt so much already. This is really inspiring me to want to build a tiny home. Thanks for sharing your tiny home journey :)

I felt as excited as you did Bryce watching it coming together so fast and seeing the Tiny House taking shape...

This was impressive. I have a mobile home and wanted a lightweight but strong material and this looks like the answer.

This structure is worth it! If the house is not on the move, horizontal and vertical lines are enough, fill the cemboard in place for the wall and it's good to go.

I ended up doing the wood framing, because the metal would of taken forever...I was never able to truelly finish it, i ended up buying a big house close to my job after trying the tiny house living...but it works great as a spare guest house, or craft room, or an elaborate dog house for great Danes...that 2950 was materials only

no hardhats? guys are VERY trusting! Beautiful Work!!

Wow thank you for sharing this original idea. I always love to see your progress in planning and building your tiny house.

This video makes me so happy! Thank you so much for uploading this whole series!

Wow, congratulations guys. This is really exciting to watch and I'm really impressed with the FrameCad team. You have a house now.

Enjoyed this video greatly-can really see all the pros going this route. Hoping to keep my tiny dreams alive.

it would so cool to see homes built to last practically forever.

Wow! I have never seen this before! I wish we had this in the USA. I think we are behind the times.

Love the excitement in seeing it all happen. Im the same. Am in awe.

the future of affordable homebuilding nailed it m2j

Super fantastic

Nice frame, but I'd replace the cheesy self drilling screws with steel pop rivets. Screws are okay for stationary applications (when they're not stripped 7:31), but in a vehicle they'll work loose over time, rivets are more resilient. Ideally the joints would also be bonded with windshield glue, and the walls would be separated from the deck by a foam strip.

This was so awesome i’m tearing up with you!!😭👍🏽🙏🏽💪🏽

Will do, will do. Plan on starting this coming summer. Great videos. Very inspirational!:)

Excelente tecnología, muy buenos los videos, gracias por compartir. Ruben desde Argentina

So simple, but so strong.

Nice clean manufacturing set up !

That is so cool. And im sure it's lighter then wood,

love the guy in the blue dress shirt getting his drill on!

Dude that's awesome!

Materials like this, 3D printing houses, and VR is cool by itself but we also need to combine them! When you made the comment about seeing it in person, I thought VR! LOL cool vid mate.

These are great videos. It's so interesting to see this tiny home being built in such a contrast from many of the others on the internet. I'm interested in the price difference vs wood framing if you're willing to share I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks buddy!

Love your videos especially when you visit and interview other tiny owners and builders. I believe you mentioned that the trailer you had made was aluminum is it because it would be lighter than the steel ones , correct?. Did Frame Cad make you the trailer as well?. I have become a huge fan of tiny homes and am in the research planning stages in building my own and one for my daughter and am interested in of one you are building with the steel frame structure . Love the idea, wood is heavier. And more expensive . Would like to lighten the load in my build and pocket so to speak. Am a Carpenter by trade and have made furniture . So will be doing much of the rest of the build on my own. You rock brother! Looking forward to the completion of your new home. God bless. Nikko

I Can see the base flexing as the workers walk around on it. Seems like this would cause a lot of gaps/looseness over time in the build? 6:17 Also Steel frame combined with steel cladding seems like it would transfer a lot of heat/cold from outside through the steel into the house?. Also triple stacked parts of frame cant be insulated?

Nice tiny house factory

This video is missing crucial information, multiple people asking how much this frame cost and if/where we can order such structures.

This looks terrific! While steel is the same or perhaps a little lower cost than wood as a construction material, how much does it add to the cost of your build to have a company like Framecad assemble it for you? Certainly the time savings has to be factored in too, however, since what takes them a couple of hours to construct with a small army of workers would obviously take a person far longer to do on their own. It certainly gets the job done quickly and efficiently even if it adds to the total cost somewhat. And when you refer to SIPs in the comments as not being "eco-friendly," I assume you mean living in a structure with all the chemicals they're infused with as opposed to their manufacture per se since the iron ore mining industry is not often considered the most eco-friendly. I just find many people (not necessarily you) professing adherence to a green mindset conveniently overlooking the eco-costs of the materials and products they've decided they can't live without while condemning the choices of others for things they've deemed bad. Again, not casting aspersions at you. Have to admit, this is one of the most fascinating tiny house builds I've seen to date. As I watch this come together -- and the videos aren't being posted fast enough! -- I become inspired to build one of my own and I love that you're sharing the entire process. Thanks!

Muito bom... Aqui no Brasil estamos começando a nos ⁸. Vocês todos são referência para nós.

Hi, Could you talk about how much you spent to get to the framing stage(including framing)? Also how does steel framing compare with the wooden one?

this stuff is amazing, subbed! im hooked on tiny houses!

Looking good ! glad you can stand up in it !!! lol. You really looked like Big Bird next to some of those guys. Great work !!

Huge fan! Plan on making something similar after graduating this year!

No caulking between bottom plate and trailer deck?

Looks awesome) If steel frame is 3 times lighter than wooden frame, then how much weight you would actually save?

Hey Im very interested in using steel frame for my tiny house. I was just wonder the cost. Can you tell me how much yours cost? Thanks, Brian

Looks good. However the frame should be riveted together not screwed. Rivets provide a much stiffer more reliable connection.

Amaizing!

With the steel frames I'd be worried about cold bridges? Won't they counteract a lot of the insulation?

What did it cost ?

So how much did the frame cost? We need a ball point number.

Hi I like the looks of you tiny house, can you tell us what the difference in weight between metal and wood is? I like the lateral bracing in the frame something you never see in stick builds and should.

With that speed I hope that prices come down further.

Great video man!

Are these products that can be obtained somewhere in the United States

Why did you mount the walls on top of the flooring..? I would have thought the walls could be more rigidly mounted directly to the frame without the flooring sandwiched in between. Would also seem easier in the future if you ever had to replace the flooring inside the house.

awesome video!

Should one use an insulator between the metal studs and the wood though? Bug proof/water proof? Your floor essentially becomes your Sill plate where the two meet.

What is the main difference of using steel vs aluminum?

Just beautiful :)

This is awesome technology for home construction. However, I'm trying to see if this can be implemented on large scale conventional or pre-engineered buildings, that need to have large steel components to handle large loads.

I think this movement is really cool but as I'm watching it I'm wondering about heating efficiency because I don't see any insulation in all these videos. Especially the floor just being a single layer of wooden planks...I thought the NZ winter could be compared to the middle European winter and I imagine the heating costs going up when the cold wind blows beneath the house. Same thing with earthships, I was really interested in that but in the climate of the area I'm living in it would just be a very expensive mouldy hole in the ground

i wish you guys would give more of the useful information along with these builds.. It seems all these videos are the same... No one ever talks about where the trailer is from, or how it was custom build for a specific tiny home. No one ever talks about the proper way of sealing these tiny homes. (for instance, the metal frame was just screwed to the deck flooring? nothing in between? no sealer?) how is this water tight? it makes no sense to me. put together like spit and bubble gum.

Great video.

How far the your video making process has come!

Un sistema molto più avanzato rispetto agli altri light stele frame gli sul mercato

That is epically cool! I wonder if there's anything like that here in the USA?! If so I might go that route if I do a tiny house.

I wonder how I find the "next video" he spoke of. Sounds super helpful.

First yay!!!! I love your video's!!!

How do you guys fix the LGS with the trailer? By screws only or by bolts with nuts?

Какая необычная технология!!!

Why do the door way studs have punch service holes? Do you intend to run a water pipe or electrical cable through the doorway at shin height?

Hello. How many anchors do you use from the steel framing to the trailer?

No worries about screws coming loose with lots of bumpy roads?

That's amazing! Can I ask how much it cost for your steelframe in particular?

Needed to see how the 2 roof panels were joined at the ridge but other than that a great vid

Thanks for sharing . Please let me know what thicknesses and size of stud and track used

Awesome video thanks for sharing. Sorry if this has been asked before I must have missed it, What did this cost to build? thanks.

What kind of metal do they use in 20 gauge 16 or 25

the short gentleman in the formal shirt is from SA, yeah?

How will you deal with the moisture that will build up due to heat from the inside and cold from the outside? To me this kind of frame seems like hoping for mold to show up. Am I wrong?

would like to see a video filling and covering the walls+roof

I love the idea of using steel framing for a tiny house! I wonder why more people don't do it this way? How does cost compare to building a traditional timber framed tiny house? I'm in the research stages for my own tiny house.

I'm just wondering what gauge of structural stud are they using? In Canada we can buy structural from 20gauge to 12 gauge. Was anything welded or all just screwed together? Thanks in advance and love the build.

Love perfectly house

Is there a problem with the screws coming loose from the framimg / What weight and size are the metal studs ? Look's good, thanks.

I really like this with a steel frame. Is it much more expensive?

aren't C-channels relatively weak and flimsy compared to rectangular sections and h-sections?

I would be very interested in the cost of this steel frame. Looking at using FrameCad to do mine in Melbourne and want to know how much to budget (ballpark), including any design costs etc. Thanks.

How does the steel effect home owners' WiFi? or Wireless services well inside the home?

lots of times The steel is as much as what wood would cost. But at a fraction of weight. and Steel is way more stronger than wood.

What’s the difference between steel vs wood anyway????

Can Framecad 's concept buil a 40 storey youth hostel with 6000 users ? How long is it expected last? Does Framecad have spiral ramps to enable one to move from storey to story without using lifts/escalators/elevators?

How much would it cost if one DIY the framing?

Can't wait to see the next video! Cmon mate! Don't leave the buillders hanging XD. Anywho did you monetize this account yet? Would love to see this channel with 100k+ subs.

Great videos mate, you might want to start using some stage makeup though, the cool lighting you're using makes you look very pale.

What was the total weight of your house at the end of the build? I'm trying to find the lightest components possible, so that it can be towed with a 1/2 ton truck or lighter.

could you make a slide out with this?

Hi what are the dimensions of steel frames used to make sure it's structurally sound to endure earthquake, typhoons and the likes

What was the cost of the frame?

man u look really tired in the beginning.. gotta sleep your 8 hours. Awesome frame! can't wait to see more details of the framing in the next vid.

How much lighter does this frame make your home compared to having a wooden frame? Is it really strong? How much weight will the loft hold? I never would have thought if a steel frame instead of a wooden one. But now I wouldn't even consider anything else.

What was the insulation & sheathing?

i'm a bit concerned on how to insulate a steel frame since metals do conduct heat very well. Also the "joint" between frame and floor is in my mind where it would possibly leak into outside/insulation. But those are my concerns, i hope it goes well and bit curious to see how it pans out. Good luck

so the entire steel frame sits on untreated wood....what happens when/if the wood rots?
