I am amazed by you and your dad's story sir Slater. Nakaka amaze na ang tagal na ng Dad ninyo sa business.. Next content suggestion : how did you guys started? young entrepreneur here
. I am planning to build a house and in the process of researching the most cost effective way to build it. My dream house…Thank you very much for sharing.
I remember the RC and Steel topic when I was reviewing pa in Cebu. The topic was basically a cracking moment where in the instructor was talking a lot of the equivalent strength of steel in a concrete dimension. That a small steel when converted into a concrete it is quite bigger when it comes to strength. But when concrete is converted in steel it is quite small when talking about strength.
@@exia4171 Hi! sir, Mahal po talaga yung steel compare to concrete. But we design our structures base on some categories: Safety Economical aesthetic (Beauty of the structure)
As usual, meron na naman akong natutunan from Sir Slater. Thank you so much po. Wala ako sa construction industry pero enjoy tlga ako sa mga ganitong videos. Favorite ko ang channel nyo. God bless.
Sana makagawa po ng content regarding fences, types, that are more or less specailly inexpensive for empty lots na matagal pa bago lagyan ng bahay. Thank you po.
One of my dream, concrete/steel house even tho its very expensive, pero sa nangyayari sa atin ngayon baha, bagyo lindol.. thata the concern ,thanks for this content sir slater.. always hands down to you
I've often dreamed of building a home that would last as long as possible, with the least maintenance, and still look traditional. A Victorian farmhouse style with a wrap around porch, a slate roof, steel framed ICF block walls about 18 inches thick, and concrete fiber siding that looks like old-fashioned wood siding. Would love it if someone made a video about this type of construction and if it's even possible. Thanks for this video. It was very interesting!
Brilliant! The switching languages is awesome as well. So authentic and anyone in construction around the world who works in a multinational team will get the vibe
…i’m planning to construct an industrial inspired house elevated on steel beams…roof trusses will be metal tubular, exterior and interior walls will be eps panels (if it would endure the elements)…and lots of insulation…
Even if I have watched this months ago, I went back again to get to know quick insights between steel and concrete. And since we are planning to re model our ancestral house, I am deciding if what is the best foundation that will last a very long time. We are situated centro in our town here in the province of La Union, and we have the mountains on the east and the sea to the west. My priority is a strong foundation from the ground up and design for me is just second to this aspect. Since we recently experienced 6 straight typhoons in just a month, and even if the house did not budged a bit, I still worry that our house might get damaged in time. Our house is 2 floors, with a concrete base, old wood wall foundations on the 2nd floor with wood flooring above the ceiling from the ground floor and the roof is already old. And our house was more than partially renovated 30 years ago so the integrity worries me a lot and even if the renovation was thoroughly built, 30 years will truly weaken the structural integrity and materials before are not like the modern materials now that are more durable and innovative.
Agree!!! Yung mga construction barracks namin steel,ung iba steel container tapos lagyan ng insulation, ok na. Kaya sa mga planta steel structure lahat para pag may modification eh madali lng. Pero kung bahay eh no.1 option is concrete, pero kung meron ka naman at may legit kang kilala/alam na gagawa ehdi go😂

Hi Slater As New Zealand Builder (retired) I used 3 materials Timber Steel Concrete. General use of steel factory houses timber and concrete Our Cebu house is Concrete and steel. However in Cebu Concrete is definitely the preferred material. But I love steel fast to build with . When it comes to steel Filippo welders believe a tack is a weld however I would use more bolts . The other thing I noticed on our subdivision the use of to smaller steel far to ligh for the loadings 😊
I'm considering Light Steel Framing for our forthcoming house in Bohol because the walls can be insulated, whereas concrete has a huge thermal mass to dissipate through the night. I'm also going to build Australian style, with a 4m wide verandah all the way around, and a roof thickness of 450mm, stuffed full of rockwool insulation and topped with solar panels. Underneath, to help with the sloping lot, there will be a concrete 'box' beneath the main living rooms - something that avoids those rooms being in direct contact with the hot earth below. I'm hoping to minimise the need for aircon. What do you think of that? Is there any other way you would consider building such a structure? Obviously timber is out in the Philippines because of the termites, and CHB are next to useless, particularly if made on site. But I would be interested in knowing what you think.
@thechriswhewell Hi I do like the concrete as the main frame rather than steel to the fact earthquake and typhoon plus steel has the corrosion aspects as well. Definitely roof truss needs to be steel. I do like Rockwool insulation. When it comes to the walls AAC blocks seems to be a trend. For me hollow blocks seems be quite good as they add 30 or 40mm plaster inside and out with concrete in fill giving good insulation. The big problem is windows and ranchsider single glass and low quality. Bohol is loverly location but limited suppliers . Compared to Australian electric standards Philippines is way behind and for me I prefer RCD with earth ground and I hate the fact that no switch to power outlet. Definitely include surge protection. With solar I would still have aircons during the day free. Good luck with your build
For what I’ve noticed, steel and precast concrete combination is the more efficient solution for building and home construction in the Philippines, it’s typhoon, earthquake, termite and fire proof. It’s what mega factories in the west are made of. If we could only have more suppliers in this industry that could offer more affordable prices, this could become a commonplace structures in PI.
My house is reinforced concrete. It's rebar with concrete blocks so 21% stronger than poured concrete. 1.5 ft concrete rebar foundation, so house is 1.5ft off the floor. A great thing about rebar with concrete blocks is its super energy efficient. When its super hot, it traps cold air in the house longer than drywall houses, and when its cold it traps warm air in the house for longer, so we don't need to use ac as much compared to a drywall house. ALSO hurricanes, drywall houses are super dangerous if your in a hurricane prone area, my house is a bunker man, even the roof has a mix of wood frames with steel and a bit of concrete blocks, "wood frames are used to frame the roof with steel covering the wood and concrete blocks on all sides".
Salamat kaayo ug daghan sa mga content nimu sir.. naa free consultation sir? Estimate lng hehehe.. pila kaha cost 2 story small house lng made of steel 1 bedroom level 1, level 2 2 bedroom, tapos roof deck pang 3rd level… hahah bka sakali lng idol hhahaha ky dli gyd ko mka afford nimu engr. Or sa inyong company mn heheh ky mga bigatin mn gyd kaayo oi.. Ky ng plano mi tukod sa among dream house 🏠unta 😊. Been watching your channel and salamat kaayo ug dako gyd interesting and informative kaayo. God bless Engr. Slater!!! Dakong tabang namo mga low budget ang imung mga content 🙏🏼😊🙏🏼😊😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great info. Specially to us na wala masyadong idea when it comes to construction Hoping to watch sir slater explaining the process and fee's getting a building permit
Saved References for future House 🥰 Thank you.. Sir Slater, san nyo po nabili yang sa wall left nyo po kanang acoustic panel, or decorative echo Absorption and diffusion panel wave ba na? Thank you sa advance response ☺️
Can you do a video on how to save costs with examples when building a house on a budget with concrete? I am from lebanon and i think we build similar to you guys. I also feel like bali design houses are cheap from looking at it since they dont need alot of tiles and use the concrete floor and alot of benches and kitchen islands etc made of concrete. Thank you
How about po sa manila common station(bayani fernando part)? Mas ok ba na steel ginamit nila instead of concrete? Sa ngayon kasi parang dami na agad kinakalawang di pa napapakinabangan. Then after nun di ba mas magastos maintenance?
Very informative and well made video. 👌 However, its proper to use “reinforced concrete” sa title and when referring to concrete with reinforcement, which is mostly what you are describing in your video.
For sure concrete is cheaper and stronger WITH steel rebar reinforced..BUT steel has been used for way longer…the first skyscrapers were all steel(Empire state building), big bridges like the Golden Gate Bridge. I like the looks of both especially when they are exposed.
Sir slater, ask lang po if contractor na po bahala pumili ng supplier for the materials or mas mabuti po bang ang client ang pipili ng supplier for the contractors to work with.
question sir! would it be safe to combine concrete structural members with steel frame? ok lang ba yung steel beam attached to a concrete column? Or can you please point me to a reference sir kunsakali na meron? 😄thank you very much!!
Your videos are always useful engr.❤️ Thank you for this another vid. 🫰 God bless u, kryz, and kids. A very little observation lng.. Can you correct the spelling "Maintainance" to "Maintenance"?.. nsa title kasi tlg 😊.. But majority, your video is really commendable 👏👏👏
Steel structure used for High rise buildings , will be more expensive than RC structure, but for non-high rise buildings( warehouses, supermarkets mall) steel structure is save
Slater always said he is more on details and always base on standard.. so if you are not slater you can build in concrete a year but if you are slater it takes that years, where you will see the quality, concrete had time frame to make it stable, where steel is just a ligo...less in building structure more on time in details for archi works

As a structural designer, I hope future homeowners and house contractors learn from this.

Kakalesson lang Po namin Ng reinforced concrete vs steel and this video pops up, it really widened my mind. Thanks papsie Slater🤍
As a civil engineer, I am really inspired and I really learn a lot from all your videos, thank you Engr.!

cold rolled steel are starting to get more popular also, with its light weight properties it makes construction faster than hot rolled steel.
I've often dreamed of building a home that would last as long as possible, with the least maintenance, and still look traditional.

The audio is 🔥🔥🔥 really crispy, feels like im listening to a ted talk
true quality is 🤌
As a bonus I got me a nice lesson learning tagalog too salamat😊
High quality content *chef's kiss
What about Rammed earth?
Mabuhay, Engr. Slater! Daming learning
Best explanation.... correct not all welders are structurally sound trained
timely info for our house construction, thanks for this
These are exactly the kind of construction videos the Philippines needs. How about a video on different types of roofs.
Basta bakal, Regan ❤

Hi, do you used your lite block?
Good explanation! Thank you for the explanation.
Great review. I’m curious, can you make a review for cast in place concrete
Excellent video.

Part 2 please🤩
Very informativeeeeee 👍🏼 Pero habang nanood ng matagal bakit si scottie na nakikita ko talking 😅 hahahahha sorry na po engineer slater!
Ty, very well put together video.
Very informative!
I'm seing Radleigh.😊

Hello sir slater. Pls. Make part 2 about bakal. Thank you.
How about a combination of your floating cement block and steel.
How about po sa manila common station(bayani fernando part)? Mas ok ba na steel ginamit nila instead of concrete? Sa ngayon kasi parang dami na agad kinakalawang di pa napapakinabangan. Then after nun di ba mas magastos maintenance?
is the steel structure you moved(after a few years) a house?
good day sir
gusto ko po sana maging isang epliyado nonyo.. san pwede mag apply? thanks😊
Very informative and well made video. 👌
However, its proper to use “reinforced concrete” sa title and when referring to concrete with reinforcement, which is mostly what you are describing in your video.
So much insight after watching this video!
Thank you!
Another very informative content from you Sir... Thanks!
This is the information i needed! Thanks
Nice video Engr. Concrete vs Steel. Thanks
can you compare walls for warehouses. Is concrete better than steel walls?
hala nindot lage imong mic ron hahaha
Love this!!! 👏🏻
For sure concrete is cheaper and stronger WITH steel rebar reinforced..BUT steel has been used for way longer…the first skyscrapers were all steel(Empire state building), big bridges like the Golden Gate Bridge. I like the looks of both especially when they are exposed.
Very informative, nice timing! i need this info. thanks Engr.❤
Noticed that the video pacing/editing slightly changed. Kinda miss your old editing style. Still good and informative video btw 😁
Off-topic, but: Did you change your mic? 😅 Cos the sound here is 🤌🏼
Thank you kuya slayter!
Maayong buntag Engr. Young!
Great video! 😀
how about po strength. Sino po mas safe like if there is an earth quake. and Also if 3 story budilding. sino po mas matibay na di talaga mag cocolapse
Please consider 100% English comments. You're limiting your audience adding 40% Tagalog
hmmm did you mentioned about the earthquake? Did I missed it?
Hi engineer, do you have experiences on building structures for a substation?
Sir slater, ask lang po if contractor na po bahala pumili ng supplier for the materials or mas mabuti po bang ang client ang pipili ng supplier for the contractors to work with.

Thanks a lot Brother
Would you recommend a Steel Construction Contractor in Puerto Princesa, Palawan?
The Philippines has iron, from pig iron to totally transformed steel. Once the Philippines have local steel making factory, Baka magiging mura.
How about building a house...one story or a 2 story house. . is steel better?
Thanks for this
Is it advisable to have this steel design if you live near the beach?
Great content, Altough I'm not a fan of the voice quality, I don't know if it's Slayer's mic or he's using an AI tool.
I'm interested particularly on the expenses side. Pangabang for second floor mabigat din Kc buhos
