So we make a video then have to back up why you did it what ever. Is it stronger to stager the sheets. Yes it is so if your so great why not just do it. ?
@@user-oc6qs1po3j reason I have to back it up is because many people who watch the videos have done zero reading on shear walls.
how much reading have you done on shear Walls I'm just curious. You won't answer my question, none of the commentators have.
Shear specs are usually provided by the structural engineers in my plan sets and enforced through the inspection process. I am curious as I’ve never seen this done before, would it be true for a multi-story structure?
I assume from the height of the “Great Wall” it is a single story structure with vaulted ceiling’s?
Did you add any prefab shear strong walls in the project?

How does the router not go through the 2x4?
Flush mount trim bit that has a bearing on the bottom side. You cut a hole so it can go through then it just run it til it finds a stud and it will follow the hole. @@Johnny-yx2qx
@@Johnny-yx2qxIt's all in the bit you use got to have a pilot bearing
@@Johnny-yx2qx the pilot bearing runs along the face of the 2x4, keeping the bit away from it, and making sure it only eats drywall.
Great idea with the router, but ignore what they're saying about offsetting the shear paneling seams. It doesn't matter if the nailing provides the majority of the strength of the assembly. Offsetting the seams makes it stronger with basically ZERO extra labor.
Exactly! Why wouldn't you just stagger? Also ive never seen a cordless router eat plywood like that.
Cos they are lazy and quality doesn't matter, welcome to 2024. They will stagger it in their own house, don't you worry.
@@matthewbarry7026 pretty sure its MDF but ok.

If i was you i would have that prototype patten quick or sell that idea to Milwaukee. You just Invented a New Tool. People can call you lazy or whatever they want because they didn't think of it first. And kneeling down to cut with a circular saw for all those windows and edges take a toll on your knees and back. Trust me I know the feeling on a wall that size.
I would give it to Dewalt.
It's not new.
Not lazy at all.. good work 👊🏿
The very definition of "Work Smarter not Harder", no measuring and re-measuring needed, you can fit all the pieces together perfectly and you get perfect cuts where you need them.
That's exactly how interior and exterior walls are done in the RV industry. Then usually the door cutouts from interior walls are taped down to the linoleum to protect it from people dropping tools.

Well those losers are more than welcome to do this guy's job on their hands and knees.

Just because something is more important doesn't make the other things less important than normal.
You should stagger your seams anyway. I Like the router set up tho

Great video! Can you send me a link to the router bit that you use for this application? It would be very much appreciated! Love the content, great to see that there are still legitimate carpenters practicing the craft!! Thank you.
It’s called a “pilot panel bit”. I don’t know exactly what one they’re using
Look for a straight bit with a bearing at the end that's the same diameter as the blade part. Set your router so that the blade part sticks out the same distance as the thickness of the sheathing. Bearing rides on the stud and the blade cuts the sheathing exactly at the right point. Depending on how tight your windows fit, you might have to clean up the corners with a chisel or a sawzall because the router will leave an inside corner round.
Just look up a "flush trim bit". The better ones have 3 blades on them, rather than two.
Working smart is what you are doing and getting the job done faster too.
Trying to 👍
This is just smart and informed working. After years in construction the builders will have more knowledge than anyone, even architekts! Support your builders and crafts people!
Na thats not lazy thats working smarter not harder 😊
That is not lazy it is smart!❤
Much easier than a sawzall!! Great work.
And you don't have to bend over to do it!!! Wish we'd had this back when I was framing!!!
Very impressive! And you're working smarter, than extra harder! ❤
I was always told to stagger the sheathing , you span more studs and makes the wall more rigid and no hinge points . Not sure how accurate that is but I’m stuck in my ways
It is accurate. He can justify it all he wants but it is still more rigid when staggered.
It gotta be stronger. Guess it's the difference between building your house or someone else's house
Lazy?? I completely disagree. It is absolutely genius
Work smarter not harder! That’s my philosophy and what a great job 👏
After watching several inspector youtube channels, I now have faith that there are, in fact, still skilled tradesmen out there.

Lots of people mistake overkill for quality, but overkill is just wasted money. The requirements for a shear wall are stated in the code and his engineer approved the plan. Ask yourself, if your reason for staggering the joints is to make a stronger wall, and stronger is better, then why not double the thickness of the wall.

As a commercial framing and drywall inspector, I think this is brilliant. I don’t know residential code very much, but in commercial you do not need to stagger your joints for a single layered wall. Only double layered walls, such as a 2 hr rated wall, require staggered joints by one stud bay.

hey Eddy, take the time to read the video description. I'd also suggest you check out this book www.amazon.com/Wood-Framed-Shear-Construction-Illustrated-Guide/dp/158001996X?ref_=ast_author_mpb
I reviewed the first version back in 2004 www.jlconline.com/how-to/interiors/resources-plain-language-shear-wall-guide_o
@@AwesomeFramers I will read and research and get back to you.
Where is the proof that you are right and this guy is wrong?

Worse framers on YT . Disregard anything you see

Smartest thing I've seen all week!!
Been doing this for two or three years now. Works like a charm for any and all sheeting going over windows/doors/voids. No problem. It’s not lazy it’s smart.
