I have a question about using corrugated steel as the subfloor to hold the concrete floor. I notices you put a wire mesh on the floor before putting the concrete. Those the wire mesh act like a rebar to hold the concrete? Thank you Kindly

    The problem with Borax to preserve wood is , it washes away if the wood gets wet. Some people place chunks of borax into holes in wood and plug them , if the wood stays dry the borax does not enter the wood and does no good if the wood gets wet it washes away. Borax is not very useful for serious wood preservation unless the wood stays dry. It can be helpful if the wood gets damp only like a Rim joist on a house.

    The amount of gov misinformation about borax is criminal. Soils NEED boron which is in borax. The lack of this essential mineral is the main cause of 70% of western women having arthritis and other bone related issues. Borax strengthens bones, whereas fluoride destroys bone from the inside out.

    What is the cost of building with those steel beams compared to other methods? Planning to build a house with open spaces a great room and double ceiling and avoid having too many columns at those spaces

    • @buildinginmexico
      @buildinginmexico Рік тому

      In our case the cost came out about the same as using cement and rebar support beams. And the process was significantly faster which resulted in savings in labor costs. In my opinion, the steel beams are the obvious solution if you want to avoid support beams in a large open space.

    • @buildinginmexico

      You could use a pump sprayer with a metal tank instead of plastic, and duct tape a hot plate to the bottom to keep the borax in suspension.

  • @Terrakis
    @Terrakis Рік тому

    I believe the borax only goes into "suspension' and not solution in water - thus the white powder residue. The water goes into the wood but the borax drops out on the surface. To get the borax to penetrate into the wood you would a propylene or glycol solution - like boracare.

      @@kiyannareynard-eu7ph borate treatments leave a white residue and crystals on the surface of the wood. If the water carries the salts into the wood it would be good. The water or any type of glycol eventually get absorbed or evaporate leaving the salts behind. Drips show up as white residue. If left uncoated in a moist environment, like outside, they'll just wash off. The wood needs to be coated to retain the salts. Glycols dry much slower. They're used to allow the salts/solution to penetrate more deeply, theoretically having more time for the mixture to soak in. Borax is a cleaning agent. Borate is an acid used as a pesticide. They both contain Boron but one is basic and one in an acid.

    Borax, if it's pure, isn't that toxic. Salt is more toxic. I used to drink a little in water as a boron supplement. It's also good for putting under apple trees if they're deficient in boron.

    • @joshdobs9772
      @joshdobs9772 Рік тому

      Foliar *leaf based* application is best for agricultural applications as boron CAN be toxic to root systems. Boric ACID is best as it reacts with the Potassium in plant biology rather than making the reaction more complex with the sodium ions in regular Borax. Boric acid is antibacterial antiparasitic and antifungal. Helps with all kinds of rot/funk.

      We left four pieces of rebar protruding up from the support column where beams will rest. The plates have holes cut to fit over that rebar. Once the plate is in place it is welded to the rebar and the rebar is cut off flush with the plate. The beam is then placed on top and welded to the plate.
