Another great video. Especially appreciate how you talk about common mistakes (like taking down the string line), and why it can be a problem. thanks Paul!
Not sure if you've covered this in other videos, but do you have to set the brackets in the concrete when using a pier system or can you anchor brackets afterwords?
2 вопроса: 1. Почему не используете вибратор для бетона? 2. Почему не ставите отделяющую прокладку гидроизоляции между деревом и металлом в том месте, где они соприкосаются внизу стоек?
Do you use 4 ply columns when going over 16’ mainly because of the wind that you have in the Midwest. I live in Kentucky and had planned on using 3ply columns with 18’ sidewalls.
I've seen other builders use three ply up to 18' and four ply above that. So, I think it is about the overall engineering structure, is it sheathed, and location. If you have to go four ply, costs for posts and brackets goes up quite a bit.
Still in planing stage but looking at 20' side walls and thinking 4 ply was a smart choice as I was looking at mounting floor truss hangers to the walls for the second floor so tge posts would be holding everything from the roof and second floor but I'm not an engineer and have not talked with one yet.
I have a question. Why not run the string line parallel with the batter boards? To mark the true outline of the house? Are you taking into consideration the framing? Is that why you are doing the string lines further in than the boards?
What a great video! What do you do when you don’t have a level pad? Say you are very close to property line and can’t use fill to grade up to the building. I have about 20” from the top of the slab and the grade at the back of the building. Do you offset the piers to the inside of the building and then pour a slab with a deep turn down edge?
Question. Why not raise your brackets for all piers like the porch and slab over the pier so that all of the brackets are resting on the slab and pier?
Love your videos,is there any other rebar that goes into your piers or just the concrete? Also how did the slide work out in your house bet the kids loved it.
Do you hold your bracket edge slightly off of your string line when you set it so you don't push your line out? Since you can make that up by sneaking your post out to the exact outer edge.
Love that you took time for BOTH cost and practical tips/tricks!
Your amazing man. Thankyou for this very informative video.Thx for the teaching.Loved it.👍

Awesome video. Thanks for the information!

26:55 shows how he did it
Another Solid video, thanks again buddy !
Thanks for the break down. Very informative.
Great explanations, nice breakdown on costs and techniques you use - Going to the patreon page next - I have seen several of your videos
Very helpful. Thank you!

You guys are awesome. Great video
Excellent "how to" video! Thankyou

Do you vibrate the concrete footings?

No rebar in the piers. Here is the slide video if interested. Kids love it!!

Would the swp66 be logical to use on one level 10 foot tall Im gonna be building a 40 x 50 early next year and plan on joining patreon group!
No rebar in the tubes then? Nice!

So you never say what your “0” is. Did you pick a point you considered your grade or “0”?
0 is the highest pier.
Can you use dry set brackets for all posts? Or do you need the SWP64 for 4ply?
No rebar
There is on the brackets + the engineering reports don’t call for extra.
8' 2x4 $3?..what fuckin world do you live in!?.😊
3.18 and 2.86 if you by 100 or more. That’s in California. We always get the shaft.
Well that’s abrasive. 😜 Lumber isn’t cheap but my local Menards has about 6,800 of them for $3.25, so I guess not entirely accurate.
