I dont think you talk too much. I prefer to hear your explanations and tips as you are building. Ive never been a fan of background music in youtube vids anyway. Im happy with you talking, and the natural sounds of your surroundings. Some things can get lost, if not using the spoken word.
Thank you Patrick! We recently hired an architectural technologist and it has vastly improved our ability to analyze different wall systems. Great stuff to come. Stay tuned.
Thank you. When anchoring containers, I'm a big believer in steel screw piles for frost protection and steel beams for footings/load transfer. I don't see the point in switching from a concrete foundation to a steel structure. Stay with steel and minimize the tradesmen on site. That being said, I am a huge believer in concrete/steel/glass homes. The thermal mass of the concrete is a giant battery and a hydronic heating/cooling system is modular and upgradable with renewable energy/technology. Building stick framed homes is short-sighted (lasts 100 years) vs concrete/steel (lasts 1000 years)
I like your idea of not welding. However if you have a large window say 1800 mm wide and 1800 mm deep. Pop rivets on the sides but what about the bottom and just a rubber gasket on top??? The walls of the container will be wavy. Did I miss something?
Is the plywood over drywall simply for the fire rating or is there an advantage of doing that? Just trying to learn about shipping container builds. I’d love to do a simple one for a weekend hunting cabin
Type X fire rated drywall to achieve a fire rated floor. Was spec'd by the customer. In the future, I feel we'll use a Hardie cement backer board instead of drywall. Less concern about it absorbing moisture and becoming mush under there..
@@core8967 you're trying to be funny, by repeating what ppl have been saying that led to him changing his video format? It would have made more sense if you said you were being sarcastic rather than funny...
Forget the haters Channing.
The off grid community thanks you

Great 2 see some cladding going up within those frames. Helps us get a better idea of the finished product.
You do not talk too much. Please disregard the haters...
Excellent! Outstanding concept well executed ready for the jobsite. Coming from an architect, that is some accomplishment!!!!

I enjoyed your videos. I would like to see you talk about proper foundation ideas and designs.

do you guys make houses with containers?
We did 10 years ago. Stick to industrial mods at the moment. Maybe one day. Here is our video: ua-cam.com/video/VxCrLFzv-E4/v-deo.html

The corrugations are riveted top and bottom.

why was drywall put underneath the floor before the diamondplate panels?

what brand epoxy? thanks
I believe it's a relatively low-cost epoxy floor coating from Cloverdale Paint. It was unreal how durable it was.
