Looks good. Concrete came out nice. I've done two of these garages 24 by 24. I like to put the exterior siding windows and soffit on before raising the walls. I even painted one before raising the walls. Fun.
I like the idea of using the blocks . Keeps the wooden walls away from the ground . This way you can back fill a bit and slop the ground away from the wall . Kind of hard to do that with a slab unless the slab is really high .
my friend very good video. It is a pity that this construction process is not used in Mexico since it seems very efficient and fast. but leaning on your videos I plan to try to do some small construction only that in Mexico there is not much information on the materials to use thank you very much for all the knowledge you transmit in your videos
A 2 wheeler hand truck would be invaluable in moving blocks from front to back! Very efficient work site reassembled prefaced walls! P p e job site safety is important even being a independent contractor! Appreciate your video and efficient work ethic , organizational skills save time and labor costs !
I am glad to see you used concrete blocks rather than cement. As cement is only a powder it has no structural properties and would wash away with the first rain and provide no stability to the framing.
If you scoop up the mortar and smack your spreader on something it will compact your mortar and then you can tip your spreader sideways and the mortar won't fall off.
@@kenskarpentry no problem thanks for insightful tips im going bid a garage similar to the one you guys did in video this weekend. Appreciate the tips.
Hi Ken, I was wondering how you mitigate for frost heave with the slab on grade? Was that countered with the gravel for drainage/low water retention, and the fact that the garage is located at the highest point on the property, being the best drained point on the property? I am in the design process for my own garage, and this issue keeps coming up in design guideline elements. I am also in a similar climate zone to Vermont, in both frost depth and snow load. Any advice would be appreciated, Thanks!
Thank' a lot for your really well made videos, i'm currently starting my 24x30 and will be doing a blocs wall too. I would like to know.. do you fill the blocs with concrete or mortar or leave them empty? I was thinking putting 16'' threaded rod through the hole in the slab, drilling the bottom plate of my walls then bolt them down, would this be good? Thanks a lot
Hi Ken, how would I go about contacting you. Your work is impeccable, I have been looking at shed to home buildings for a retirement home but compared to your outstanding workmanship I wouldn't feel safe and secure living in one of those buildings. I am dealing with leukemia and need your help. Nothing like the piece of mind having trust in an important project. Thanks
We drilled rebar into the slab then filled the core with concrete. Then we put anchor bolts in and secured the pressure treated 2x6 plate with sill seal.
Excuse my ignorance... The vertical... (Don't know the exact word in English) polines? Idlers? Boards? What's their width, cause i can see that when You installed the sheating, the joints between one and another are on the same idlers, and i can't figure out how it can take two rows of nails without breaking
Hello, good video, I need to know what type of beams you are occupying for that length of the garage, apparently they are almost 8 meters? They are beams of what dimension? are they made on site? are they specially bought? I ask him since I am building something similar. Have a very good year, my friend, take care, bye bye
Interesting, a man who can do multiple trades, fascinating! Hmm, is that legal? Wow, where did this kind of guy come from? I'll bet he's alien, like from another planet. No one knows how to, and can do all of this!

Hey, sometimes those guys who walk up looking for work are some awesome labor.
Excellent job. Nice to see a true builder.
Thanks
Crazy turkeys, hey👍🎅🏻🦃
Haha
Another great video ken thanks wish I lived closer I’d work with you in a heartbeat 👍🏻
Thanks. Commuter jet?

Great job 👌 Greetings from Ireland
Cool! Thanks for watching.
awesome .,.,beautiful job gretigs from argentina¡¡'¡¡
Gracias
What a beautiful view from the garage
Thanks
Just two of you on that slab!?!?! I'm impressed, you do all right for an old guy! LOL!
Haha thanks

Great video.
I only cringed when kneeling on the concrete
I had knee replacement surgery.
Yikes. Hope you’re doing better

Great respect from Russia.I made the same with blocks yesterday .
Very nice. I bet your skills are better than mine when it comes to blocks.

From one Ken to another Ken nice work guys!
Hey. Thanks for watching

I LOVE YOUR porch also. Your HOMESTEAD is FABULOUS.
I need to research AGAIN where your location is.
It's not my home I just built the garage. I would enjoy sitting on the porch though.
That is a real nice view, in the background.
It is beautiful!

Thanks
Nice job congratulation

I usually fill where I put anchor bolts
Your turkeys got lucky man
They didn't have too wheel barrow any concrete
True
Great work l do the same job !👍👍👷♂️👷♂️
Thanks. I bet your work is excellent.
How about using the wheelbarrow to carry the blocks
Do you cut joints in the floor or apron?
vertical sheathing? I was always told you had to make each layer perpendicular for strength but I am not a framer ...
What's the measurement of the garage and what do it cost to have built with out the slab?
Thanks for watching. 26x26. Without the slab around $35,000
you should get the two carpenters to do the block work, as they work muck quicker.(Ha).Nice video.
I think you're right.
Funny. With turkey’s
If we lived closer id love to do your flatwork and blocks for ya to get in on some of that framing
Sounds fun
Why did the client want the 1 row of bricks on the concrete slab, was it to get separation fro the floor to the wood wall..?
There was concern of snow coming off between the house and garage and having it leak inside
question. why put the wood on top of blocks? why not direct in to the cement? I don't know nothing about this but just a question
They wanted to have the blocks as a splash guard.
Why not set the pins for the block while the slab is wet? Some simple measurements to place the pins and you save all that time spent drilling.
True. I don't do block enough to wrap my mind around that.

No tyveck paper before installing siding ?
Thanks for the comment. Definitely will have house wrap before siding, we just haven't got that far yet.
NICE
Thanks
What is holding your board on the masonry blocks?
We filled the core of the block and put anchor bolts into them.
How did you anchor the wood frame to the slab? Was it necessary for one layer bricks? Or did I miss you anchoring to the brick layer?
We drilled rebar into the slab then filled the core with concrete. Then we put anchor bolts in and secured the pressure treated 2x6 plate with sill seal.

They are 4’ wide. We can nail the perimeter on both sheets to the same stud. Thanks for watching
Where did you bought those walls already made
Thanks for watching. We build them in our shop and deliver them on a trailer

Thanks. They are wood I-joists. A local lumber yard can give you the specs for them.
Do you build the ijoist in your shop?
Do you ever build these as two story homes?
Thanks for watching. They’re store bought

How did you attach your pressure treated plate to the top of the block
Anchor bolts in the concrete blocks
Not a big fan of the apron being part of the slab, looks like a guaranteed place to have a big crack...
You messed me me up, thought you would start with wall one, to the right facing the door...
Haha!

Thank you
Wish you do work in Long Island NY, I may attempt to do it myself, I did research do I have to add insulation to the slab? Thank you, U r great.
Thanks. If you're going to heat the building I would definitely put insulation under the concrete. Hope your project goes well

No split lines on the concrete floor. Looks like you'll have cracks in the future. Good job
Good eye! We are doing that tomorrow actually. It will be in the next video.
You're in better shape than me and I'm 27.
Haha. I don't thinks so. I don't video what I do when I get home. Massage chair...ice...heat
@@kenskarpentry haha, I know the feeling. I'm wearing out fast.
Sorry Ken, I had to watch with the sound muted, what is the purpose for the block? I always enjoy your videos and appreciate the content.
Block keeps your walls/paneling/drywall/etc off the ground.
Sorry about the music. Still learning this video stuff.
Easy work
Thanks
Why the block wall? Just to build it up?
There was a potential of snow build up between the garage and house
How much the project cost?
Around $35,000 without siding and doors
How did you attach the board to the cement blocks
Anchor bolts mortared into the block and rebar drilled into concrete slab.
@@kenskarpentry Thank you. Could not see them
Slab has no control joint. I wonder cracks won’t be pretty.
You are right! It's in part 4 or 5 cutting in the control joint.
why are blocks used in this nodel?
The house was close to the garage and there would likely be a lot of snow there
Where are you located?
Vermont
😂😂😂😂🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃
That's too much or not enough. I'm pretty sure of it
Definitely
❤👍 Serbia
Thanks Dragan!
Ken and son? Turkeys are cute, “Republican or Democrat”
Yep! The turkeys are bipartisan. They'll pick on anything.
Square footage?
676 square feet downstairs and about 470 square feet upstairs.
Thanks.
