    Welcome to another episode of the MHC House Build. This is the sixth episode of how we are self building our house start to finish. After finishing all the ground work, wooden forms for the concrete footings, insulation and rebar cages we tackled the very last tasks of the foundation before pouring concrete, installing all the drain system of the wet rooms of the house, all the rebar connections that will tie the concrete floor, and reinforced all the form to support the concrete weight. Leaving the work all 100% ready for concrete pour day.

      Hey Pepe,
      Wish you and family luck and prosperity on the new house, I'm a Civil Construction Engineer and I have some pointers for you in this video;
      1. Never pour concrete when the weather is 36 degrees unless if you have chunks of clean ice to bring the temperature down and place them in the mixer. We do this in Kuwait due to the high temperature for Quality Control reason.
      2. If you have rust on your rebars, sandpaper it lightly, clean it with a dry cloth and paint over the rusted part FOSROC Zincrich or an alternative which guarantees you that the rebar's rust won't show in the concrete like red colored spots.
      3. Arrange portable towerlights just around the site if there's any work during night time so no one gets hurt.
      4. For Saftey reasons, place a Safety tape around the perimeter.
      5. When you do the rebar work by yourself, dig four holes in the ground and cast some concrete to keep it in place so you don't struggle when you do the work.
      6. Any time when you pour concrete, you must vibrate it but point the tip straight down not inclined as the concrete will not hold together.
      7. As its a big house, just invite more volunteers or paid crew partime so you don't feel overstretched.
      8. and regarding your survey equipment take it to a third party inspector to recalibrate it every 6 months.
      As I said earlier, good luck and happy to be reached out if you need any construction related advice.

    Pouring the concrete for the foundation is critical so it is important not just to pick the cheapest supplier but one that is trusted and reliable, you don’t want cold joints or setting at different times. You two are very brave taking this pour on your own, good luck

    Hi guys! How are you?
    I am touched to see your old table that is still there. Do you realize that on that table you built EVERYTHING in this property? ALL! You have used many tools, modern machinery and other stuffs, but your old table is still there... You must keep it with love and take care of it because that table is a survivor and has done so much for you.. 🤩
    Lot of love F.

    Incredible job Pepe & Eugenia! Regarding DNA tests, both my parents/grandparents are from Acores so I was super curious to see if I was 100% Portuguese. My initial results were Iberian Peninsula as well along with small percentages here and there, but over time your results change as more people submit DNA. Today I'm 90% Portuguese. 😊

  • @oliviervasseur1967

    I still haven't understood why you made the foundation above ground with a wooden formwork. Wouldn't it be easier, much faster and much cheaper to dig the foundations into the ground and pour the concrete directly? Is there a technical reason for this choice?

    • @gmercvil
      @gmercvil 11 місяців тому +1

      I have thought exactly the same thing. Maybe the consistency of the soil is not the best to do it this way, especially when it rains. Let's see if Pepe and Eugenia can shed some light on this enigma. Great job guys, your videos are like an addiction, better than a Netflix show!

    • @Galipolity
      @Galipolity 11 місяців тому

      I think in this way, after disassembled the wood frame, they can put on a water and moisture seals (bituman, sintetic based) over the out side exposed concrete and on top a foam layer to protect the moisture insulting layrt and give an thermal insulation (two bird in one stone)

    • @oliviervasseur1967
      @oliviervasseur1967 11 місяців тому

      @@Galipolity Yes I understand your reasoning. But from my point of view, directly digging the foundations and pouring them saves so much time, money and is more ecological in the sense that you don't use unnecessary materials. In addition, the sealing and insulation is made above the crawl space, avoiding any rising damp and insulation of the same quality as in your method. I don't see any benefit to this approach.

    Que maravilla ver otro video!!! Tengo una pregunta, porqué decidieron hacer la casa rectangular y no cuadrada?, hoy cuando vi la toma aérea pensé... es mucho lo que hay que caminar de un extremo al otro!!!
    Además según el Feng Shui las cuadradas energéticamente son más fluidas con las energías.
    Y por otro lado me hicieron sufrir con la mesa/reliquia, estoy deseando la restauren, es el mayor souvenirs y recuerdo de sus inicios. Gran abrazo desde Miami Fl ❤🇩🇴❤️

    Incredible work Pepe and Eugenia 🎉🎉. Your attention to detail can’t be purchased. The concrete truck being intercepted by police was the one thing out of your control. Anxiously awaiting your next upload. Best of luck.
