Excellent. It's been about 30 years since I've framed a floor. This is a great refresher. I'm about to start building a tiny home. Only 10 by 16 feet, and I want it sturdy. Thank you.
Nicely done Stan really admiring your work on this especially when you make a mistake right at the end and laugh it off, me the nail gun and everything on me would have been the other side of the garden and i would have to take a breather to make sure that nothing else is a mistake again 😅😂 I am really enjoying this and it was defo worth the wait.

Just looks so different not seeing any support in the center that would further support a "live load" of the structure. Id be worried in time the floor would sag in the middle. Im certainly the over engineer it kind of person.
I'm not trying to be rude with my comment so please don't take it that way but, span charts are available for everyone to use. You can google them and find one pretty easily. It has nothing to do with "over engineering". It has everything to do with wasting time and money that doesn't need to be used. However, with that being said, someone can put as much "support in the center" as they wish. I actually cover "live load psi calculations in the video at some point. Have a great day.

You can do it!
For those looking for his info on his footers. He has no frost line so only needs to be 12" deep. He has another video with more detail.
Thanks for that. You are correct.
Honest question. No joist hangers?

Glad you are enjoying. Always good to hear from you man.
Hey it’s this the same for an addiction? I need to to a 2 room addition on the air just like that one
Have an engineer draw up the plans you need.
Do you know the load bearing value of your soil?
silty sand type soil. 3000psi.
why do we alternate the blocking in between the floor joists? From left to right the pattern alternates.
If you didn't you would have to toenail each block.
If you had taller piers - about six foot - would you still use blocks or round sono tube columns?
Either. I've seen both.
That pause @ 12:29 had me thinking you were contemplating major boo boo. 🤣 Shop starting to take shape!
Just exhausted. Hard work!
Why not sq across 6:21 full width of the 9.5 " ?
( on rim joist).
I don't understand what you are trying to ask.

Hi what is the length of your joists?
12 feet
How far is your pier span.8 ft?
4ft and 12ft. Determined by a code enforced span chart.
I gotta do a 16 ft x 30 addition how big it’s the footer n how often ??
Check your local codes.
Why no concrete blocks in the middle??
Span calculations.
How big is this floor again
The chicken in the background taking a dirt bath 😂
Great job. Greetings from Brazil.
Thank you! Cheers!
Chicken in the background just diggin her hole and chillin 😂
They are fun to watch.
Well, there is no shortage of enthusiasm.
I trust you went down at least to undisturbed soil, for footers.
You were not paying attention. That is what a soil compaction test is for.
My grandpa always said be extra careful on the last one of any project because thats the one that will get messed up.
Wise man.
Excellent 👌👌
Here's my comment of support
I was gettin worried!
This is a well made video
