- www.homebuildingandrepairs.co... Visit our website to learn more about house framing, building design and home repairs. This is part two in a video series on "A Frame Home" construction. It has floor and roof beams with 2 x 6 sheathing and might be one of the easier homes to build. It's a home design that can be found in older homes built in the 1950's or earlier. It's a common cabin design also.

Can you make a video on adding a loft on top of the collar ties along with a ladder or stair option? I would also like to see dormers added. Love this series. Thanks for the effort.
Great idea!
good idea
I have been watching your videos on and off for years. Thanks for making them, always learn something.
Glad to hear it
You're a legend. Keep up the good work👍
This is what i was looking for!
What is the size of the rafters? Can you make a video on how to add a dormer?
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in such a wise and kind way ! :)
Happy to help!
Thanks for this video. I'm working on a 1960s A Frame similar to this. It has 6 inch rafters, 48" on center. I'm considering adding additional framing to accomodate shiplap on the inside of the roof. Wondering if I should add additional 2 x6s or do 2x4 framing attached to the existing rafters.
Hi, First off I would like to say your videos are top notch. The best on you tube. Second I would like to ask if you can do a video on the hardware for this type of building. Thank you so much.
thanks so much for sharing. I have two questions, please. Is there a disadvantage to putting the flooring down and then set your rafters? Is there a disadvantage to use a gusset plate at the top to connect the two rafters? Thank you.
5X the snow load if you put the outside concrete piers under EVERY rafter end
Could you do a flat roof low slope video please!
I have some on my playlists. www.youtube.com/@gregvancom/playlists
How long are the roof rafters for 18 ft wide ? 22 ft to get 66 deg ?
Can you make a video on an A-frame house built with a T&G roof BUT Plywood floors instead? Thank you.
Great suggestion!
Where can i find the blue prints?
I would like to create or see someones cost comparison between vertical wall with roof vs A Frame design method. I would expect some adjustments for useability of the interior space. For Instance a 8 x 12 conventional shed with 8 ft walls vs a 12 x 12 ( floor size) A Frame. or maybe a 12 x 14 A-frame would be needed for an equal interior "useability" factor. The point is that A Frames may or may not be a more efficient design for true useability. That is what we have to figure out.. For some purposes the super high loft space of an A Frame might be of higher value but then also a loft space can be built in a conventional shed as well. The point is I really dont know for sure which is the more efficient design. Becaise there are many storage shed builders that stick to conventional design I tend to think the conventional design is most cost effective.
out of all the hundreds of videos on youtube of people building Aframe houses, ive only seen one person who built theirs using a ridge beam at the top. And thru the whole video he struggled greatly doing so. He aslo stated that h would never do that again. Most people build the A frame on the ground then lift it in place. one thing here though that I dont see much if any and thats people spacing the A's at 4 ft on center. I think that makes a lot of since. On the ridge beam though they mainly use 2x4's for cladding at 2 ft on center from bottom to top then install their roofing. which is mostly metal roofing. great video though.
can you include visual dimensions with these drawings
yes, a guy standing inside.
What would it take a roof not to be made with ridge board or beam, because I believe what I saw at my roof the rafters were just joined at the top?
You could use blocking and I will provide examples of it in the series.
It's 40's house, collar ties on every rafter with 2x6 ceiling joists holding it together. But no beam or board. Just wondering if you heard this before?
Without dormers or skylights I would guess the %glazing to floor area would be low and very limited natural lighting (dark inside during the day).
Good point and the longer the building, the less light. This problem could be solved with skylights.
Are the roof rafters 2x8s? or?
I can't provide lumber sizes, because they are different in areas with snow.
@@gregvancomWow, thank you for getting back to me!
I'm in N Idaho: Sagle
83860 on the south side of lake Ponderay. Re the amount of snow, it is a very steep pitch..18' for the base and 27'
to the peak....I dont see how snow would even think about collecting on a metal roof. Best regards,
