hey good morning guys it is Monday we're back on site day 4 we got snow which
means first thing we've got to do is clean everything up we got to uncover
all of our piles thankfully we thought about it on Friday and we went and
covered up all of our lumber piles before we left the most that we could I
mean with with as much as we could what really stinks here
so that's probably the worst part about winter builds is you never quite know I
mean last week this site was pretty darn perfect it was firm enough due to the
cold that we weren't working in mud never last
now we're gonna be working in snow and what happens is if we don't clean up
like our scissor lift if we don't clean off the machinery it just becomes more
of a mess and I don't think we're gonna see any Sun today which means it won't
melt I don't think we're even gonna see above freezing I mean it's it really is
quite a pain you can see we didn't have anything to cover up this pile here so
those are all two by sixes which is unfortunately I guess I didn't think
very well that's what we're gonna use first to make our fascia so the goal
today is to try to get the machinery around the site so we can put our tails
which is going to create our two-foot overhang and then put our fascia boards
on that way we can prep to get roof steel on it's a 16 foot tall building
it's just kind of standing out there and the structure of a post frame the real
diaphragm strength does not come into play until the steel is secured on the
roof and the walls
see now we don't have a horrible mess of snow and ice on our lumber so glad we
thought about putting those tarps on I don't know whose idea was probably
Greg's probably not one really important thing to remember is when your winter
building you got to remember where all your piles are we kind of forgot about
this one right here behind me and Greg was like oh yeah we got rough steel over
there so got to make sure we uncover everything so we know where it's that
that would really stink to drive the skid loader right over a pile of rough
steel and probably cost ourselves a couple thousand few thousand dollars so
you can see what happens when we don't cover our material and it snows out it
turns into a bunch of ice and a lot more time on the jobsite
before we can use it this is what we call our tail it's what creates our
two-foot overhang and when we make it two-foot overhang we use a 2x4 four
footer and when we do a one foot overhanging we use a 32 inch 2x4 now all
we're doing is we're driving some sixty penny nails in two of them up on the top
over the truss and some people ask me why we don't just have our tres
manufacturer of IVs in the factory honestly because most likely they're
gonna break off and that's just due to the nature of coming out on site the way
they get installed no matter what I'm gonna have to set these to the right
dimension which is two foot off yeah I could run a string line and snap them
but to be honest this is a lot easier and it allows us to straighten the
building later otherwise we would have to straighten it then cut them off and
it just wouldn't work out I mean maybe that doesn't make sense but it's hard to
straighten here but it's easy to put a string line and straighten the fascia
and make sure that looks good and you can't really do that until you've cut
your overhangs to the right dimension if they come factory applied okay I realize
that might be confusing if the tails are installed at the factory and let's say
they make them a little bit long and then we're supposed to just cut them to
be correct we would have to straighten the wall and the trusses before we could
snap a line or do whatever so that we could cut them
effectively so to me this is the easiest way this way we can make them like we
want them we can measure into our post and set them right at 2 foot and then
once our fascia is on we'll come back and we'll put a string line or the laser
whatever we can do to verify that everything is straight that way we know
if we straighten the fascia then our building is straight also better that's
better okay I gotta give GRK some love you can see here this is
their new screw design they changed the top
they changed the shaft the shaft here is longer so it doesn't grab and pull your
material apart as you're going into your let's say two two by fours but what's
the best thing is look at that I can put the screw on the bit which this is a
newly designed bit as well and I can do this with one hand
you gotta know you'll go a little lower or a little higher because it's gonna go
in yeah we're doing in a couple years so
when doing grade board on a foundation wall it's a little bit different because
well you don't have to be different but we like to add a little bit of an extra
level of protection for wind or air felt infiltration because we're not having a
backfill or something to be sealed up against that grade board like a typical
building we're finished floors four inches up on the grade board here the
whole point of the foundation wall is to keep everything up out of the dirt out
of the gravel out of the weather and hopefully it'll last forever so having
that concrete sticking up means that there can be a connection between our
grade board and the concrete where there's not a good seal so we use a roll
of this ASP sealant tape nothing extremely special about it it's used
typically on hips ridge valleys what's nice about it is it expands to fill the
gap so even if there's some imperfection between the straightness of the wall or
maybe there's a little bit of a chunk knocked out of our grade board I don't
know whatever that could be you roll this through the grade board and when
you put it down it expands and closes the gap creating your seal so there's a
good example of the foam you can see where it's expanded already here this is
the end of a roll where it's really tight so it's not expanded nearly as
much but it'll all just fill up I think about an inch gap is what it can fill up
and keep sealed pretty good product will flip this over to the wall like this guy
create a nice seal
so one of the nice things about when you run your purlins on top of the trust
like this is it gives you your overhang so you can just run the purlins long
here we run it two foot long actually one foot ten and a half inches by time
we add our two by sub fascia that will give us our two foot over hey
let's put the bedding closer I had planned
all right we're just gonna be good okay
huh okay
well it's definitely been a cold morning I thought when we got here it was gonna
be a fairly decent day because just felt kind of nice and warm but the breeze has
picked up has not had any Sun we're getting the overhangs done we're getting
the grade board done and hopefully we can prep I don't know if we'll be able
to do any roofing because there's ice and snow up on the purlins so unless we
get some UV rays burning through the clouds and it can start melting that off
those tops of the purlins I don't know if we're gonna be able to roof unless we
go in a hand scraping which we're not doing that so what I'm doing here is I'm
cutting up all of our wall bracing and we we used to do just a slanted board
from the bottom to the top and if you've seen post framing before you've probably
seen that angle bracing it's actually not very effective
anything over 45 degrees so if your board is pitched any more than 45 in
your angle brace you start losing effectiveness and strength on that shear
detail so what we started doing was a double X we stole that from an
engineered building project that we had done for somebody using somebody else's
package so I stole it because I liked it and I think it gives us a lot better
shear strength to our wall especially until we get that steel skinned
diaphragm on so what I'm doing is basically I've done all the calculations
in the warmth of the trailer and I was able to get the dimensions needed
and I always like to use this little I mean this is a cheap Stanley square it's
got the protractor little arm that kind of swings around and you can change the
degree to whatever you want and it just makes it very easy to do repeatable
repetitious marks for your cuts somebody already got it out dead battery
hopefully now you can see this makes sense that's our wall bracing that's our
X bracing was what we call it and instead of just doing like from right
here if I'm looking at my camera here all the way up to the top a lot of
people will just run one board from top to bottom
anything over 45 degrees is not nearly as strong as something at 45 degrees or
less to resist that lateral strength being pushed against it let's say and
when loading or whatever so we always try to keep this under 45 degrees these
ones are forty four point two I do believe so these are going to be super
strong we're gonna have a double X which means we'll have an X on the bottom and
then we'll go ahead and put another X right above it and that helps stiffen
this wall up real nice so we can feel good about putting the roof on and doing
all the next-level stuff like putting windows in knowing that it's not gonna
go anywhere and get out of level on us
Greg I am at the I meant the Eclipse I'm at my prime I will never be better in my
life you think I'll get better what are you thinking I'm past it Oh Greg I can't
even believe it are we friends are we not friends
true at my primary project you might be wiser than 30 old pal but I don't know
30 Lauer's he was the real deal man I mean are you gonna make a memorial for
30 year old cow I would be very ripped I feel like there was a time when I had
the leanest your veins will have that in the mirror of my veins will have a those
days are coming back you just wait
I didn't know what you're talking about you've been pretty sick yeah whatever
you want to call it
so now that we've got these X braces done here I feel really good about these
walls not moving on us the chains are gonna help aid that until the steel is
done and you might be asking is there any reason why you put them where you
put them and to be honest some of them especially this one behind me is there
because normally I would come off the corner and put them right in the corners
but we've got windows back there so I thought I'm just gonna skip a bay and
then over here honestly I just matched it so I was able to be efficient because
all three of those bays were the same width which meant my angles were the
exact same so I was really just being efficient as possible and there really
was no rhyme or reason as to where I put them other than the one that had the
window in the bay right next to it also a little side note today not the most
productive we've done some window framing we've done some grade board
we've done some fascia boards some overhangs
and some X bracing on our walls we're gonna go ahead and try to straighten out
and square the building as best as possible so that hopefully tomorrow
morning the snow and ice that's up on those purlins is gone enough to a point
where we could start roofing because that's what we want to do but it's just
not the smartest move to rush into the roofing side of it until some of that
ice and stuff is gone and obviously we can't put steel over top of the ice
because when the ice melts the screws not gonna be down all the way and then
you just got all sorts of problems so we're gonna go ahead and spend some time
the rest of the day probably cleaning doing some other blocking miscellaneous
you know just all that nitty-gritty boring stuff that doesn't actually look
good because you never notice it but hopefully it'll help aid in the
efficiency later on
too much I don't want to get a copyright cleaned ragged here singing a song
that's copyrighted so when when we're ready to do straighten out our building
the string is the easiest way to go because it never lies if you tighten it
between two points it will be straight now when it gets windy the string line
does not very effective because you might get a little bit of a bow and if
you're using a short building or you're laying out a short building it can be
okay but once you get to a point where the string is getting a bow in it you
got to either use a laser or wait till it's not windy luckily for us we don't
have any breeze blowing this string line so we're gonna go ahead and try to
straighten out this building with the string you've probably seen us do it a
couple times but we're just gonna go trust by truss and tail by tail and push
and pull it so that it's lined up with the string and that will give us a
straight building from one end to the other just at the trusses the fascia
could have a bow in and out and we take care of that when we're roofing so what
we like to do is actually have our string line established we just take our
square and we basically just kind of plumb it up and see where the string is
in correlation with the backside of the fascia that way we know as long as we're
just kissing our square on every one and you can tell we've got a chain down
there way down there about in the middle of building where it's really far in and
we probably you know we never actually leveled or plumbed up our chain when we
brace the building we just put it on and now it needs to be adjusted
appropriately you can see the chain over that way going down there to that center
post so we got to make some adjustments no
big deal this tale when I put my square watch
this see how I'm past it that means I need to
move I need to move this truss that way oh it's more lined up with the string
here so this one here we got a wedge just a little bit just a hair more Zach
yeah perfect so we're achieving that Zach's down
there and he's basically just putting a little wedge to tighten the tension on
our chain just enough and you can already see the improvement in our
fascia it's already looking a ton better just by basically moving one or two
chains because we've spent the time at the beginning of the job when we were
standing our walls to use that 12-foot stabile a plate level to set the walls
in the brackets with all the lags and the through bolts plumb in the first
part so that way when we got to this point there shouldn't be a ton of
movement because it should be in a straight line if we start straight we
end straight
thirty two eight and five eighths is my diagonal okay what will we drink thirty
three and five-eighths how about thirty three eight and five
days does that make we're still way off your heavy yeah we know it needs to go
back we double-check our measurement thirty three eight and five eighths I'm
going for right there and I want to be thirty three eight and five eighths I'm
about half-inch Zack we need to loosen the chain going this way we need to go
that way but you got it you're burning a foot okay that was too much Zack we went
about a half into the other way so one layer the other we need to wedge it take
that link off and now let's wedge it dude you only got to come let's say
eight incher better a little more dope hold that right there I would say
that's pretty good 33 8 five-eighths I think we like it so because the
dimension was long when we measured our peak dimension based off of you know
using the calculator to figure out the diagonal dimension based off of the rise
and run that's the easiest way to get square on your roof framing because of
my diagonal was bigger than what I wanted it to be we went ahead and we
pulled the chains we loosened the one side tighten the other and that's what
brought that peak back the way we want it to go which reduce the dimension on
our diagonal bringing us to the perfect square once we've gotten our fascia on
the eave perfectly straight with that string line made sure that all of our
walls were plumb the last thing to really do is to get that peak where you
want it so that your square that way when you start roofing your metal sheets
you can lay it all out and everything runs in a nice straight line and doesn't
have that nasty jag at the bottom of your roof panels where you got you know
from one sheet to the next you kind of got this like wave going so if anybody's
ever installed metal or sheeting or anything you know exactly what I'm
talking about so now that we've got our peak squared up to our even everything
is good there that doesn't mean that our end fascia is straight so then we just
kind of eyeball it if it's a really big building sometimes we'll put a string on
it or we'll use a laser in this instance it's not that far off I think right
about where a gusset plate is on our truss we just need to give it a little
bit of pull so we're gonna hook a chain up on the top cord of our truss will
pull it the other way that we needed to go and we should be good we'll see how
we do so we're gonna go ahead and pull our chain let's see what happens give
another link there Zack that's too much take it off wreck the wedge it
okay wedge it we need a little bit more Zach yeah that's pretty good there I
like that now we just got to fix this bottom once we fix the bottom we should
be pretty good all right it's about the end of the day here I'm gonna start
putting stuff away we got the building straightened out so tomorrow the calling
tonight for some drizzling rain ice which could be really bad for us because
we basically didn't roof today because of the ice up on the purlins it's almost
gone and if it comes in tonight in a storm or something it's just gonna put
us back into that much further regardless I hope you guys are enjoying
the video series so far I'm trying to kind of highlight and show a little bit
of the different stuff I know I've I've probably shown a lot of these techniques
but I'm trying to kind of show them in either more depth or maybe a little
different way so you know I hope you guys are enjoying it and if you are
please hit that subscribe button show me some love drop a comment down below
letting me know what you think and you know more importantly I think is if you
share the video maybe we can reach more people show them how awesome post frame
can be how much fun you can have in the trades and how gratifying it is just to
be out here building something even though it's cold even though we got
setbacks with the weather I'd still rather be here than an office any day
not knocking offices just not for me so you guys have a great day I'm gonna get
cleaned up headed home to the wife and kids we'll catch you guys back here
tomorrow later
