Would be nice to see a video explaining for a core floor that continues up with the fox block after its installed.
When I first saw this product I was wondering, then after reading I got the idea of it. This video definitely puts it into perspective, great idea for adding that extra height with better floor joist or truss support than something face mounted and no interior insulation is necessary (as you said), can see this also being beneficial for ICF type slab floor installs as well.
Can also see something like this being used on Reveal where instead of already being installed on the one side the user can add their own wood for final look and just do as you did and screw it into a flat side web like you demonstrated while still getting full core thickness. Perhaps the reveal side would have a thicker solid box type furring strip for better screw fastening if the owner/user building the home goes with cheap OSB for the pour and then removes it for then screwing up drywall (0.5 inch or thicker sheets) later since gypsum is so weak, especially when it gets wet. Unless they just fasten the gypsum over the OSB after the pour has set and the wood has dried.
It would be great if you could do a video on the Fox Blocks Compact Corbel/Brick Ledge Panel and how they are employed/attached to a 10" or 12" standard ICF block. Better yet, maybe Fox Blocks could start making 10" & 12" corbel blocks.
Love the product. Liked the health and safety handrail
Thanks for the comment. Traveling all over North America I see all kinds of non compliance and often I cannot even shot video because the site conditions are questionable. It is getting better than it was back in the day when contractors would walk the top of the wall while placing concrete.
Government regulation is not the answer. Over pricing is a problem because the gov is sticking its nose under every tent. Not needed. You nervous Nelly types only help to exacerbate this gov overreach. You want socialism/marxism move to the EU or Not so Great Britain.
@@lightning9279 My sister-in-law's cousin tripped on a job site and was impaled on a piece of rebar that was sticking up out of concrete. He died. That's why you see those orange caps on the ends of protruding rebar. Safety standards have reasons. Sometimes it might feel overbearing but I think that getting your people home alive at the end of the day is a worthy standard to hold yourself to.
This is a good idea. Better that using brick ledge blocks turned around and facing inward. I have used the Simpson Strong Tie hanger system that you push through the block so the flanges will inbed in the concrete core. but this method seems more straight forward.
Is there a way of using the ledge blocks to carry the first floor and then continuing with 8" blocks above? Thanks.
Would you be able to put two sets of "L" bolts in with this? One set at the bottom for the plate for the floor joists attachments and one set on the upper for the plate for wall studs?
I waited 16 weeks for my blocks from this joke of a company, regional advisor would give me one excuse after another as to why it was taking so long. Absolutely unacceptable work ethic with these people, they could care less.
