Tiny House Build Steel Frame Install
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 жов 2024
- In this video we install the Steel Frame walls of our Tiny House, and also get the wall wrap (sarking) installed. We give a general overview of how to get the walls installed and our method for fixing the wall wrap. We show you how to build a tiny house and some of the Tip & Tricks we use to make the process easy, and traps to look out for as we make living in your tiny house possible.

So cool to see how the frames are actually made!
Hi Jak, I know, really interesting !
Very nice, I am actually currently building a diy tiny house using metal studs and tracks. Video is also coming up to be uploaded.
Hello! Did you ever get a chance to upload the video? I would be very interested to see!

Considering constant road vibration, are there special screws used to join the frame that wont back out while towing this house from location to location?
What gauge of metal studs did you use?
Awesomeness!
A good building is inseparable from a good light steel structure design equipment FrameMac LGS is here for change
Hey guys great that you are making those videos. I also decided to make it with steel. Here in Austria, they like to do it with wood and so i do have a Question: How did you fix the steelframe on the multiplex-board on the floor? Danke =)
Hi Danke, our design is engineer certified and they specified the size/type and spacing of the fixings. Basically we used a metal roof tech screw into the frame. They are spaced at every 500mm and at each side of every opening (door etc) and frame join.
Hope this helps, regards Ross
wow great video series. thanks for sharing! we are starting our 8X2.4 tiny build in January. Can you tell me how you attached the steel framing to the trailer? did your framing company supply all the fixings and advise how to secure it? Also if you don't mind would you be willing to tell us the approximate cost of your steel frame? Thanks heaps and really appreciate it! Beau.
Hi Beau, Thanks for the great comments. We did a complete design and had Engineering approval done. After that we gave it to our steel frame manufacturer who made to our specifications. The engineer specified the size / type of fixings (10g metal screws) which are screwed through the steel trailer frame on each side of every wall stud and every 600mm. All the wall sections and roof are attached in the same manor. Depending on your design, I would budget about AUD $5000 - $6000 for the frame.
Where are you located ? As we are also starting to build Tiny Houses to order.
Regards Ross
@@LifestyleCabinsunplugged Cheers Ross... appreciate that. We are down south and already in the process of sharing our plans with a few steel framing companies at the moment. Thanks again and ill let you know how it goes. Keep the videos coming!
What size material are you using? is it 25 gauge or 20 gauge??? is it 4" or 3-5/8" or ???? what type screws are you using ???
I saw one video use 18 gauge via an engineer suggested it. thicker/stronger
That’s amazing 👌
Thanks Anita :)
What is the material of the profiles?
plz tell what gauge steel is your framing? ty
Hi Antonia, I’m not sure of the steel gauge, it’s the same as what’s used for standard house frames. We have had an engineer certify the design to Australian standards. Regards Ross

@@lost_ducks thats a dick move ..just tell us what gauge.. that response guarantees im no using your site ... at all
Excuse my ignorance, I was wondering why didn't you go to a steel manufacture-i.e: blue scope steel, and just frame it yourself at home?
Hi Wilson, that would be an option but would take sooo much longer to do. The nice thing about the CAD based cutting machine is that automatically cuts all the pieces to the correct size.
@@LifestyleCabinsunplugged Thank you, that would make sense. I work mainly on building sites, and we never use a CAD cutting machine- as they just come delivered in standard lengths, but if that's the case, I wouldn't be surprised if it's implemented on-site for strictly customized projects.
Out of curiosity how long did it take them to manufacture all the frames? Normally something like that on-site would take 2 men a maximum of 1 day.
You did an excellent job, and I've watched all your videos. I'll be keen for the final stretch videos of the fit-off and finishes.
Glad I found your channel because I'm building my caravan the exact same way. The only thing I haven't confirmed is whether to bolt, weld, or screw the frame onto the chassis as you have done. I'll be testing it myself with its shearing capacity because I can't find anything online about it.
@@wilsontan887 were you able to find any shear data to confirm whether welding, bolting, or screwing was the optimum path?
@@maryprice8458 Hi Mary,
From experience, screwing is the optimum path if the structure is fixed as you'll be using steel tappers screws which is much faster than rivets.
For caravans, tiny houses or trailers that are on the road often, it's best to rivet the steel together. This is because screws become loose due to vibrations, whilst rivets expand into the actual hole.
What spray adhesive did you use?
HI Bailey, we used Contact Adhesive and spayed from a automotive spray paint gun.
Hi guys how are you?. I would like to ask you where to buy the trailer?, like the one on this video. Thanks.
