    As a Journeyman finish carpenter, we move wood mouldings into a home 3 days in advance of the work, to adjust to temp and humidity.I love the way the mud gets offloaded right away!!

      I’m assuming your question - are the anchor bolts “long” enough for a double sill plate 🤔 Doesn’t look like it - but I suppose it wouldn’t be problematic to post fix afterwards. I wasn’t familiar with the term double sill plates here in the UK but googled & see it’s common in the U.S. & other places. Plenty of design/details/requirements to follow what’s required.
      Oh, & numerous CZcams’s where chaps have had to replace due to rot! We tend to adopt fairly good waterproofing details to reduce this.

    • @messageobliquespe100
      @messageobliquespe100 Před 3 dny

      I’d say ‘even’!
      Depends how much the blockwork layer wants to charge / how many days / cost of blocks etc etc
      Client wanted it quick - so I think there was a good margin in this!
      Would be nice to know -rates/prices vary district to district - labour force available
      If you wanted a job done - do a fag packet sketch & give it to local builders - & see if they’d do a job like this

    when pouring that height with those wide footers, do you have to aerate that cement even though it's a thin wall? I would figure it would be poured in sections because the wall is so tall. looks really good except the Fox block markings

    • @messageobliquespe100
      @messageobliquespe100 Před 5 dny +4

      Prob not - it’s more than likely been taken into account by the design mix of the concrete - a self compacting concrete mix with plasticisers added amongst a few other requirements . Should all be in the specification - as agreed with the engineer. Concrete might be fibre reinforced just to reduce thermal cracking when curing.

      I had to do as I went into structural engineering after leaving school. I didn’t have much interest in concrete in the beginning tbh & studying it was more of a chore. I was more interested in steelwork design. Fast forward numerous years & most of my work became the design of multi storey reinforced concrete structures. A number of advancements over my lifespan & changing of design codes through the years have made it a very technical subject - if you want it to be. It’s a simple enough medium to use but mistakes can be made - that’s why specifications / design mixes are key to what one requires/expects.

  • @markstipulkoski1389

    One of the main reasons for a mono-pour is to eliminate a cold joint where water can push in. But this method leaves metal tunnels embedded in concrete between the inside and out. I know that for this job, the interior is going to be filled so it doesn't matter. But I don't think I'd want to use this method for a dry basement. Wouldn't those metal tubes provide nice expressways for water to get in?
    Another question. Why ICF if you're going to fill the whole thing up with dirt anyway. Excuse my warm climate ignorance, but does the insulation really serve any purpose other than a quick and easy way to build a poured wall without the forms?

    • @messageobliquespe100
      @messageobliquespe100 Před 3 dny

      Where water might permeate - but know what ya mean
      Cold joint / construction joint / - the joints gonna be ‘mainly’ in compression so not really a problem - but they’ll be some tension / compression to the joint if from surcharge from backfill or if car parked alongside.
      He’s filling either side afterwards with stone covering those tunnels - & says it doesn’t require to be dry
      He’s not filling the whole thing up as he’s leaving a crawl space
      The ICF blocks are purely for ease of construction - so the insulation is not important - it’s just a Formwork. Client needed job done quickly if you watch the early part to the CZcams - so not pouring a separate footing / nor another trade to provide blockwork etc
      Saves time

    Do the conduit tubes not create little tunnels for water to ingress from the outside to the inside?
