OK I’m not a Carpenter totally not a professional, but trying to get as much information as I can because I want to build my own cabin on my property, my question is how come you put the walls in first before the floor joist?
Because this is a raised ranch, so the first floor is on a concrete slab. If I would build a colonial or ranch with a crawl space of full basement then I would put a sill plate and rim joist then lay out the floor joist for the floor and followed by walls. Then floor joist against and walls of it was a 2 story house.
There are many factors that go into that question such as 1. What type of siding, windows, doors, insulation type, heating type are you using. 2. Are you hiring everything out or are you doing part or all work yourself, this particular aspect will alter the cost by a lot. If I had to give a vague ballpark I’d say between 100-180. The reason for such a vague number because I don’t know if you are doing the work you self or hiring out everything out. This will be your biggest expense, labor, and will depend on who you hire and how you’re able to negotiate prices with them.
WOW so you used a full length LVL header. Too bad the portal frame garage door opening are not framed according to the current IRC. Not to mention braced wall panels are not installed properly. If the braced wall panels are not full height panels blocking is required at the horizontal joints in the braced wall panel. Also the required nailing pattern at the portal frame garage door openings is 3” OC in all framing members and a 3” grid in the the header. If you are going to built it and put it and put it on video the least yo can do is build it to code.
Just wondering if blocking is recommended when sheeting horizontally especially with OSB sheeting to support the edge better between the studs when nailing?
@@Keith-ou9su Thanks for the reply. Agree, just though I seen in the video that the sheets where installed horizontally on the exterior wall. My mistake.
Where I live the perimeter of the plywood needs to be nailed every 3 inches impossible to do with no blocking it helps keep wall square and straight we put blocks in vertical at 8 ft and stand plywood up less horizontal seams makes wall stronger
It can’t rest on the block since the 2x6 is flush with the blocks so the osb goes right to the bottom of the 2x6. In order to make it easier to have a straight line, I often put framing nails between the block and 2x6 and rest the osb on them. You can also nail in a 2x4 into the block temporarily which is what I did when siding with 4x10 sheets of Hardie material which was heavy.
There isn’t a building code in Michigan that I know of that requires OSB to be hung vertically. I hang it horizontally all the time including pole barn construction…
@@davidbalicki3567 That has to be your local code. We hang it horizontally in a number of situations…What would you do if the wall is 10 ft? Can’t stretch 8 ft. Panel’s…
I prefer tying the floors together by overlapping the osb and with these walls being 9 foot, laying them vertical or horizontal makes no difference with a 4x8 sheet.

Great Video! I'm in the middle of a project and, ' A picture says a thousand words.' Thank You. Your video answered a lot of my questions.
Wow, My best friend, I liked the video very much, thanks you for sharing, stay safe, stay blessed
Great video. I learned something here.
I am building a garage for the first time ever. The OSB sheeting is coming up soon. I need to learn how to do it properly.

I’m framing out of 2x6 right now and I sure am not going to be sheeting horizontally.
How much does this house shell cost before drywalling stage?

You stand up the sheets you don't lay them down

Sorry blocks go horizontal at 8 ft
Do you rest the lowest 1st row of OSB board on the concrete wall, or it is hanging over?
It can’t rest on the block since the 2x6 is flush with the blocks so the osb goes right to the bottom of the 2x6.

Plywood is supposed to be flush with block
Sheathing not sheeting 👍
Do you have to caulking the contact zones between OSB and framing on the interior side of the wall? (to reduce air surge/draft)
I used spray foam for part of the insulation so I didn’t have to use caulking between the contact.
@@buildinglife2855 Thanks
Your not supposed to have sheets tight you don't need to caulk them
Очень круто !
Michigan building code requires OSB to be hung vertically.

@@johnwasik1186 10 ft tall wall? Either purchase 10 fot long OSB or you use blocking. Next question please
@@davidbalicki3567 Don’t need blocking on 16 inch centers…
Your supposed to stand the sheets up not lay them down

@@buildinglife2855 that's your opinion but your wrong sorry
@@Keith-ou9su just curious, how many houses have you built remodeled or framed?
@@buildinglife2855 I've been framing for 30 years for 15 years I framed 50 a year I've I was the builder on about 20 houses 750,000 and up
You are supposed to sheet the wall before you stand it
