- Flat roof construction
I am building a flat roof and this video covers how we go about sorting the timber, setting out the roof and then cutting and fixing the joists with trimming for roof windows

Imagine going out to get quotes on your extension and managing to get someone like Robin on board? His customers are very lucky to get someone like this to work in their project. Absolute peace of mind!!!
Bet he charges a fortune tho
I am generally the middle quote!!
@@flyingjackcarpentry9394 - you usually get one quote that's way over the others = chancers !!
@@thetessellater9163 I'm crap at the business.
I end up underpricing.

I’m not in construction at all, but am fascinated by your videos.
You appear to be setting the best standards and have a good time doing so! 👏
He is one of the best if not the best english chippie there is. I'd pay to work for him, his knowledge blows my mind.
Still love watching your videos Robin, been really inspirational and helpful. I took on a self build annex for my dad to live in this year with no prior experience. Demolished a garage, dug the foundations, had the footing poured, laid all the trench blocks, dug a complete new set of combined drains, learnt to lay bricks and did up to DPC, bought all the timber and insulation ready for the timber frame.
THEN, chest pains one night and a morphine taxi to hospital. Pericarditis, not allowed to do anything. Its been two months staring at my abandoned project and I'm not well enough to get back on it :(
I've got some gents coming in on day rate in a few weeks to get the walls up but I cant afford to pay other people to finish it.
Hopefully I can get a roof on before winter gets too harsh.
Good luck mate
As we would say in Oz......Bugger!
As we also say, She'll be right, mate.
Take your recovery time, do a bit of planning and you'll be back at it before you can cook a koala on the Barbie😂
pericaritis.....you took the jabs ? Very silly move. Hope you get well.
Last time I saw a timber that big was on HMS victory ! 😂 you could land a helicopter on that roof ! Great tradesman 👍👍👍
The most interesting build out of all of your amazingly interesting builds I’ve watched in ages. I’d love to know more about using glulams instead of steels and how you tie the new flat roof into the existing as I’m at the planning stage of building a single story timber framed extension onto a bungalow with near identical roof to this. Looking forward to seeing more of this project 👌😎👍
Have you watched my video about roof construction in My Big Build playlist where I go into detail about the roof design and how we eliminated all the steel?
I thought I had, but will go back and rewatch. Your videos are always full of brilliant detailed gems of knowledge. Thank you.
Wow. If I had my time again I'd want to be an apprentice to Robin. If he'd have me! Such a craftsman and attention to detail.
Great work Robin, keep pushing your level of detail, it's inspirational.
Keep safe.
Regards Martin.
The song was really enjoyable. I would not be opposed to hearing songs of that caliber on future time lapses. Great content as usual from you and the team.
I love how casual you blast through the explanation of the works like it's just a simple job! your knowledge and experience are refreshing to see.
I appreciate that!
Love the new ppn, its alot lighter than the last model smaller aswell, I believe if you set up and set out your work and pre plan ahead, take your time at the beginning you can lift any job with ease, Great video as always. Have a good one Robin
Love it, I'm a huge fan of timber frame building. It has so many benefits.
Love these vids ... you guys are doing an incredible job with each and every vid. It's been superb learning how you build and learning the thought process and it's been excellent watching what excellence looks like when it comes to getting desired results. Cheers to all of you behind the scenes of this channel too.
Love this video with you. Lot framing with a good tune and sped up. Probably watch this again. Thanks, Robin.
Thank you David!!
Nice video, I too prefer to work in a similar way, not only do you eliminate the measuring errors but I find it a far more efficient way to work. I wish more architects/S.E's would spec Glulam beams as they are such a great product to work with, I'm constantly having to use a block and tackle to get steels into place where a Glulam beam would have been much the better option to use, never mind all the hassle of noting timbers into the web to take hangers etc!
I was setting fence posts this afternoon, I should have used a story stick to mark the intervals instead of a tape measure.
Poetry in motion Robin.👍👍
Hi Robin Jimmy from Australia the majority of homes out here are Timber frame with Brick face .They-call it .Brick veneer …Also they have steel frame homes truss and walls .For bush fires and termites.Great Vid Robin all the best 🇦🇺🇬🇧👍🏻
class lads. ive already adopted some of the measuring techniques like those shown in this video. it makes setting out so much easier. some of the work you lads do must be great to be part of. those ppn nailers are a great ool too. ill have to get one for the next job i have hangers on. last time i set the apprentice away on hammer practise 🙃he was sick of bashing his thumb haha
Love the content Rob.
I thought you liked to cut the joists off the wood pile with a circular saw and speed square.. i suppose its less measuring with a stop and good old ed carrying the joists around.
Id like Robin to show us the detail where the flat roof (grp?) transitions to the pitch and get it watertight.
Brilliant Song and Brilliant Work. 👍
great to see such excellent work on framing with mm perfect accuracy 1st class
Lovely work Robin & Ed!
Looks like Wakaflex for flashings around the dormer there. I’ve just started using it. Shapes like lead. Amazing stuff. Great vid.
Robin..you are my superhero
Great job boys! Really nice hints and tips.👍👍
Brilliant and informative video Robin !
Love the new look video... yep great tune.. hope these great tunes continue thru your videos
Thank you! Will do!
Top quality job👍
Brilliant as always 👍
Incredible work
If you were in Australia, Robin, I'd want no other person building my house!
Great video as usual Robin. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant Robin do you have any footage of the walls going up and fixing down? My dream is to build my own Timber framed house of large extension. This is going to be really interesting for me. Many thanks
Do you have a video on the walls Robin? That looks a good build.
Great stuff, takes me back, but I didn't have that tackle for fixing😊, but I measured with the 2x1 battens like you, and pinching rods for longer, instead of tape stretching all the time.
Good stuff!
Hey Robin, if you remember when you get to it would you show the front junction between the flat root and the gable, would like to see how you handle it, cheers.
Thanks 4 sharing excellent vid and tips as usual
Appreciated m8
Enjoy all the best
Great video Guys !!
Glad you enjoyed it!
‘Flat roof’ doesn’t translate to flat by me. I have a pizza slice fillet piece positioned on top of the joists to create maybe a 6 inch drop over 14 feet in my semi-detached (existing). Very curious how Robin will tie the drainage, roofing system, terrace, and windows all together. Tremendous graft and ingenuity as always. I’m forever indebted to your teachings.
I would of for free for this guy just to get all the knowledge he has, he can send me 100 times a day to the van it’s fine.
Great video. Did you do a video on how to build the timber frame extension itself?
No gapotape on this job?
I like your alloy towers. I'm thinking in investing in a set. I presume you're going to do a warm roof
Love your videos 👍🏻 is there any update on your roofing square?
Hi Robin. I noticed your framing square has your logo on. What ever came of the production version? I cannot seem to find it on your website etc. Did it ever make it into production? I am still in the market for an accurate framing square totally fed up of the so called square squares that are completely out and require adjustments. If yours is not going to be available which (if any) would you recommend please. Great video as always. Thank you.
Is there an update on the framing square 👌
Hi Rob, who makes your large square? Thanks in advance, Dave
Did you think about keeping your joist template in place then just fitting the joist hanger around it?
Very nice Robin. I am tackling my own extension at the moment. Do you have a video showing how you connected into the existing wall of the house on this project?
With the ppn i wish it had a long nail holder, it fires them so quick it runs out quick time
Hi Robin, had to use two Glulam beams in 1985 on a roof extension, loft conversion in East Sheen near Richmond Park gates, structural engineer recommended them. They were a new thing then I think, the Twickenham Architect telling me "well depth is strength you know Liam. By the way, are the chippies today aware , or use pinching rods?
Interesting to see you didn’t use gapo tape this time.
Factory fitted panels
Ah... The ever-elusive RC framing square....
Great vid… What diamondback pouch does the guy have on his dom side at about minute 13? [striped shirt] thanks… 😊
Great work! Is all the timber you're using for the walls and roof treated? Where did you get it from? Thanks you 👍🏼
@1:17 - are those things engine cranes, or specialist tools for lifting beams?
Hi Robin, have you struggled this year with the really wet summer we had? I'm up in North Yorkshire, I've only just had a weekend with a clear forecast to pour concrete.
Where do you get them 4x2 Trestle legs from Robin?
great video and I love the concept behind timber frame. one question... is there more of a fire risk and with that higher insurance etc? for example are glulam beams fire retardant?
Timber is far more reliable than steel in a fire especially large solid sections such as glulam, steel always needs to be completely encased against fire as it buckles and bends with the heat and collapses faster than a large structural timber beam
Neat as always. What slope do you use for a “flat” roof? And (I think) you staggered the noggins and end nailed them. Is that just for roofs (versus lining the noggins up and toe nailing)?
Don't let Robin catch you banging those hangers over with the claw of your hammer ;)
If the roof will be flat/level and knowing you it will be, how will it drain? You haven't mentioned firring strips ?
Hi Mike, we run Firring strips and box gutters
Why pin the bent over ends of the hangers? Is that from the architect, regs, or just because?
Hangers are considerably stronger when they wrap over the top and nailed, many types of hanger have the number of nails used with or without wrap printed on them
can you travel to south wales ?
I bet you wish you could work that quick! What was the music?
Flat roof house is not popular in USA. There are a lot of flat roof masions in Bevely hills. Those multi million masions are wood roof or concrete roof?
Are timber framed buildings and extensions classed as a higher fire risk than traditional bricks and mortar buildings?
No Chris, all buildings are designed to meet building regulations that would cover all the parts including fire regulations
All buildings will burn down with enough heat or becomes smoke damaged during a fire. A timber building is extremely predictable in a fire and people much cleverer than me know how lond a timber will take to burn or char which then provides fire resistance to the time. If I remember correctly 40mm takes either 30 or 60 miniutes to burn. Which is why your fire doors are 45mm for half hour. Where with steel its extremely unpredictable in a fire and it buckles and twists with the heat in any direction. Where timber doesn't and is still structurally sound. So a clulam beam will out perform a steel beam in a fire
@@wrightwoodwork fact 👍
Are they factory made wall panels? Looks great Robin but where are the Posi-Rafters? 😊
These are from the factory, and we wanted to keep the ceiling as high as possible, we used a 175mm joists and the smallest Posi is 225mm so we gained 50mm
Cool. The smallest Posi is actually 202 (PS-8). It's not generally used in floor design because it only has a 108mm gap (not enough for a soil pipe) but it is used for Posi-rafters and would have been able to handle the balcony loads here. @@ukconstruction
Nooice!
Does anyone know if Robin roofing square is available?
Hi Dan, I am planning to do a video update very soon!!!!
What trousers are those?
What does a lambeam that thick run pricewise?
I'm not sure exactly the price as it comes with the timber frame package but I would say they would be about £500 each
@@ukconstruction Thank you. What was the length and do you know roughly what their max unsupported span is?
