Concrete Stairs Overkill? | S02 Ep12| Starting 2nd Floor
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.พ. 2023
- In S02 Ep12 of building house in Philippines we start the 2nd floor , floor beams and start the steel Decking. Week 13 I will be pushing to complete so we can pour asap! Week 12 was full of progress and full of mistakes. We corrected the spacing in our stirrups on columns as well as spacing of stirrups on tie beams. Building our 2 story home in the Philippines has its disadvantages, like the wind. This last week 12 was nothing but wind with some gusts of 40km an hour!

Great update, things are looking great also.
Just watched one of your videos, why you sell your house (new bungalow). I saw the video when you're building it until it was finished. It was beautiful.. I feel sad when you said you're selling it but later understand why you are selling it. I love watching your videos, I like what you're doing in the Philippines and I appreciate foreigners married to Filipinas, who are doing a lot of efforts to help the family in the Philippines. To Richard and Donna, don't be bothered so much with the negative comments. Just keep doing the good things you have planned for your family. Keep showing the different techniques, methods or improvements in building a good and durable/strong house.
Papa, I believe that one of the reasons things are working out so well with your workers is that you’re not sitting somewhere barking orders, but you’re there in the trenches with them. I think that give them not only incentive to excel, but is earning you great respect in their eyes. Loving the progress. ❤️
@@allstargaming5270 you may think that, but if you follow through his video and his journey, he wants to continue development. If i were the workers, I would quit and work for him. haha his work ethic, knowledge, and leadership is why his homes are 1000x better. Who knows maybe he IS the boss. Makes sense since he has a lot of say with the home build.
@@allstargaming5270 You sound like a Grumpy Old Man how lost his Buisines becorse nobody like to work for you, not becorse they don't want to work but they just don't want to work for you!
@@allstargaming5270 you're over thinking it buddy! I doubt its that serious. Theres a concept, "you get what you pay for".
Obviously when you work a job, you provide the effort and skills. Theres value in Mr. Armstrong's knowledge in construction. Like the locals said, they dont usually rebar stairs, or put in footers. Americans do.
You could be on-site or remote, It doesnt matter who you hire, as long as its done how you want it.
100% of a low quality company is not that same as 100% of a high quality company.
Setting this aside, they're doing a great job with their home! This home is being built to last.
I couldn't agree more.....
You are a real craftsman Richard. Love seeing you pass skills to your fine crew. Was really impressed to hear that you raised a son who chose to serve his country. I was a Special Forces soldier (18E and 18C) and worked with Philippine Rangers 1987-1990 when I was stationed in Okinawa. Give your son a salute from me please. Great vlog as always!
Well done Richard! love your motto, "Do it once, do it right". To me you're officially the "Mike Holmes" of Ilocos Sur; no nonsense attitude. Thanks again for supporting the local community by hiring workers and showing them how things are done right the first time. I hope in return the workers are soaking in the knowledge and experience you are providing them. God bless you both, ten folds!
Your vedios r d high light for me on TH-cam, sometimes I forget how seriously I'm focused on it. Really admire u Richard, you're doing a great job, I'm sure Donna is with u side by side, she's ur strength by God's grace. N little girl makes things all easy, isn't it.
Pagkatapos nag bahay mo sir , skilled workers narin yung mga manpower mo at dahil sa tulong mo. Na e share yung skills at knowledge sa mga tao mo...more power and god bless po
Richaard needs to start his own real estate development company. His engineering skill and experience will help elevate the local industry and become the benchmark for future home development.
The weather has been crazy. California got a good snowing this week. So great your progress is. You will be in your home in no time. Thanks for sharing. Hi Ella I like the new intro.Take care guys👍🏻😃
I love your channel and I really respect Papa Richard for being a hard worker alongside of his men. Treat your workers right and they will work hard for you. I think they appreciate learning new skills and new ways of doing things too. They can take their knowledge with them when they move on to other jobs. I love seeing all the progress that you are making on the house.
Can’t wait for the house transformation! Godbless ur family and ur channel 🙏🏼🤍
I'm guilty. I was one of those that said it looked like over kill on the stairs. Although I have also said that I know very little about concrete. I truly appreciate that you are giving me a "crash" course on concrete. Your knowledge impresses me, and I always learn something with each one of your videos. I feel that with all of your decisions you have used very sound judgment, especially with the acquisition of tools and machines. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for the rest of the build. Great video!
I have respect for a hard working gentleman.
Sir you have leadership skill, workers are thankful for the new skills they gained.
Kudos to you foremans as well! They did a great work you guys.
Sir Richard is so hardworking. Filipino construction workers are learning a lot from you. Since you love building, why not have your own construction company?
He’s becoming a developer.
Oh sure yes, even better.
lol.. Sir Richard is lowkey Architect, Engineer, and Interior Designer. 😂👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
I so love the design of their first house build especially the Living Area.
I’ve been watching house building in the Philippines for years on many channels. Where you stand out from everyone else is your projects seem well thought out and you have done your homework. You don’t cut corners and your work is to perfection. Your work site is clean which is safer and makes the project go more smoothly without a mess everywhere. You take care of your workers and that reflects back into there work. Seeing many home building projects in the Philippines I’ve had plenty of WTF are they doing moments but not with your projects because you do the work correctly the first time.
I couldn't have said it better....I totally agree
Hello Papa Richard, your home project is perfection, how I wish i can hire you to build my daughter's 2 storey home 🏡 😉...Good luck 👍 🍀 and God bless you, Donna, Ella and your son ❤️ 🙏🫂🫶
I will trust you with building my house, Richard! You are hardworking and doing a great job! 💕
I see a beautiful house and great hands on building participation….you truly love building and soon your construction company will be known as a construction company that builds home to last forever…..simply love your before and after screen shots…so much fun to watch! Power on….
I think you will be a good contractor the way you build and the technology you have bro ❤💪👍
Keep talking like I’m a drone”😂…I love you guys ….It’s amazing how you guys not just building a house here but with ❤love❤ and care….
Hi Richard... always enjoyed waiting and watching for ur week by week vlogs about ur new house. Ur very hands on and have great equipments also. Kudos to ur workers also👍👌👋
Wow, it's amazing to see the progress that you've made in just 12 weeks! Your attention to detail and commitment to using proper engineering techniques is really impressive. I appreciate you taking the time to explain the rebar placement in the stairs, as it helps me understand why it's important to use the right amount. The finished stairs look fantastic, and I can't wait to see the rest of the house come together. Keep up the great work, and stay safe in all that wind!
Hey Mr. Armstrong. I am welder/ironworker working in Canada for more than 6yrs. I can say your stairs look exactly like how they do it here. I've seen it with my own eyes. For others it would be surprise at first until they know that's how it suppose to be done. Do the best and safest route of doing it, in the end it's your house and your family safety. Keep it up Armstrong family!
Alberta or B.C.?
Stairs has very light weightto support unlike the beam and columns but on this video bars on stairs are more than that in the column it is like your building a brigde
The stairs have nothing beneath to support. They only rely on the beam at land. The load must be transferred into the footer below. Hence the rebar that carries that load like a bridge carries load
@@TheRichardArmstrong I am seeing a piece of wood on the center to support the stairs a beam carries lot of load like the flooring stairs is carries a moving load not even a one ton of load how many tons is your floor and compare your bar on stairs it is like a 10 tin bridge design
And you're an engineer? So I can 100 percent guarantee that if you did some research you'd see that I'm right. And the wood is only for temp support while concrete cures. The stairs are technically floating. No support on bottom side. But hey, if you want to design a sloppy set of stairs be my guest
I just happened to stumbled on your site, and now I have binged watched your whole video up to week 12. I did understand why you sold your first beautiful, magnificent home, until I heard your wife’s concern of the debt you acquired. I’m supporting her, it may sound like what’s $20,000.00! Well, being brought up by my parents, whom never had debt cause everything was paid for by cash, they worked hard and kept debt free and had always tried to instilled in us to not live beyond our means. So, when your beautiful wife freaks out about a loan of $20,000.00, I get it! Also I don’t think she has to worry too much also cause these houses you’ve built are so amazing and beautiful! And like you had said no debt is good debt! Your workers are learning so much from you and it shows how you and your wife appreciate them, by getting them futons to rest on, instead of laying on the concrete, showing them how to put away the tools and organize them for the next day. Things like this will go along way! I love the Armstrong Family TH-cam, thank you for sharing! I’ll be watching!
When I watch your videos I am always amazed at how much progress has been made in just a few days
You did a good job on your stairs buddy.....soil are soft...... when earthquake comes it shakes a hell much..... for sure..... good job buddy 😉
Ang galing ni Mr. Armstrong, pulido ang gawa at bsntay sarado ang paggawa ng Bahay. Hindi waso-waso ang gawa, polido talaga. Hanga ako.
Thanks for showing to Filipino laborers how to perfect their skill and be proud of it. It does not matter what you do as long as you do it well.
Wow congrats Miss Donna and Sir. Richard, Guy's how amazing house building now. And can't wait more videos to come. I'm very impressed ang inspired buy more lot. God bless you all.
Good job on house it’s your house your money building it you and your family are the ones going to live in you should build it the way you want to does not matter what other people say
In this kind of project you really need to have people who have patience and wants to learn. A lot are just after the money.
Happy every time we see building ur home the amstrong fam..we get an idea building like this....
Armstrong Development and Construction Company…. Love watching your videos! I would totally hire and trust you guys!
Awusome work. Keep up the good work and God bless you and your family. You have a very bright future ahead for you and your family. Stay strong!
Been watching your video including the first house and totally impressed on what you are doing. I was born in the Philippines and currently living in California. Continue doing your project and it seems to me changing some of the construction methods and attitudes
I admire so much Richard for the very hard work to your house. He really loves construction work and the accomplishment he feels from his work. 👍
Like watching your videos , Richard works so hard. Nice building techniques.
That 5 oclock shot. It's gonna be absolutely beautiful there during the golden hour.
Its not an overkill but ypu considered very the safety. Good design. You are well experience of whats the best. Thanks for sharing your ideas
I'm appreciate you're effort not just to build but also to help those who needs job and giving opportunity to our fellows filipino mabuhay kayo at Sana lagi kayung may project and also healthy kayo!
Richard don't waste time on replying to people commenting on your personal family situation.. you guys are awesome and I love your house building projects and when I am in position to have a house built I will make sure to incorporate the things I am learning from you. Keep up the great work. Regards to Donna
I’ll second that, jealousy and envy are strong emotions!
I have seen that kind of rebar on stairs and even though I am not a construction engineer I know it is the right way to do it, that's why I get amazed when I saw someone do it the wrong way by implanting a rebar on the floor, but now it is confirmed and I know now the right way, thanks for sharing
If you weren’t building your house right now, I’d love to ask you to do renovations on our ancestral home here in Cebu. I watched how you built that previous bungalow and was totally impressed by your methodology and, eventually, the finished product! You should have your own construction company. I bet you you’ll be swamped 😊!
I'm in the Philippines building SAME heavy duty house, good stuff man, I'm just designing stairs 10 times more heavy duty, but yours is pretty heavy duty too
Wow, the progress of this build is coming along, fantastic! Your experience from your first house and your skills are quite impressive, Richard. I'm so happy for your beautiful family. I love watching all of your videos and always look forward to the next one. ThankYou for sharing your life and experience with us. 💙💗
That will be the strongest area specially during the earthquake it's a good idea specially the house was built on a farmland if there any liquifaction those rebar will hold well just ignore the nay sayers it's your house and you design it it looks great keep up the good work stay safe God Bless
It's nice to hear from your son that his going to be station here in the Philippines
I don’t know where the get the energy to be onsite working your butt off and do all these videos. Watching your vlogs is starting to become addictive,very thorough and done the right way…I checked out the location and noticed you guys aren’t to far from Taiwan, maybe it’s all those Chinese fighter jets creating all the wind hahaha jk. Keep doing what you do.
Stay safe, God Bless!
You guys can hv fresh vegetables, bcoz it's just round d corner, that's natural n organic too. God bless d work of ur hands n shower u his favour, grace n blessings with good health n prosperity in abundance. Bless ur family
Another great week of building 👏🏻👏🏻
This is so amazing! I love this video series so much! So much to watch, listen, and learn!!!! Major respect for the Armstrong family! This is a whole family production - such great job on so many levels.
You showed us how change can be a very positive move with no debt!!!!
Things are looking great..
#BuildStrong
Hopefully we will be able too travel up and SEE you Live and In person.. Next month..
As always 💯💪🙏 #brothersalign #BLESSED
Salute to you my brother! You're definitely one of the hardest working TH-camr's that I'm watching 👍🏽💪🏽🇵🇭🇺🇲
MABUHAY!
I like when you mention you don't want Ella feel homie keep moving all the time ma d love respect to that
Ganyan ung standard Ng pagtatayo Ng bahay.karamihan sa pilipino ay nagtitipid,Kaya Hindi nasusunod ung standard na paggawa Ng bahay.
Great Build / Construction techniques on your building, I was happy with my steel works, columns / beams / stairs etc, even made them put Beams / Lentils across the top of the doors / windows, very foreign to a typical Pinoy builder, structurally very strong, of course the finishing is always a struggle here, just completed 4 years ago and it is a day to day struggle to maintain the place, hopefully after my second / 3rd revision it may be relatively Maintenance free !! Or at least an acceptable level, maybe I got unlucky ! But seen so many builds here to a much lesser standard of mine ! How some of them survive a tremor is beyond me ! Anyway really liking your content ! Would have no trouble buying a house constructed by you, your stile and attention to detail goes way above the normal standard here, keep up the good work ! Looking forward to seeing more !
Great progress! Love all the rebar in the stairs. Someday when you sell this house the new owner will love watching the videos and seeing the care you took to make this house strong. Thank your son for his service from the rest of us! Hopefully he can get to the Philippines as planned.
It’s great that you guys are so involved, so you can make the changes on the fly!
sir richard is very hardworking man.he has talent in building houses or good houses rather♥️
Soo proud of you Richard, your dedication to produce a strong and beautiful house can't be questioned, you've gone to every details that by the look of it the result is amazing! More power in all your endeavors, God bless you!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Nice progress on the house building! Love seeing you getting your hands dirty along with your workers. I'm sure they appreciate you tremendously, and at the same, you are readily available to ensure they are doing work the correct way and not taking shortcuts.
Anyway, as far as your son wanting to be based in the Philippines once he has completed all of his training and assigned to a permanent duty station, there is no U.S. bases in the Philippines for him to go to. All of the U.S. bases such as Clark Air Base and Subic Naval Base have closed and turned over to the Philippine government. The closest Army bases that he could potentially be stationed closer to you depending on his MOS would be Okinawa, mainland Japan or South Korea. Hopefully he gets one of those places. Great to hear he is doing well in his training!
They said in the news that there are going to be like 9 bases opening up in the Philippines for the IS to counter China. Not yet?
Hello ! Well done Richard. so like the way you build your house, the stairway the best and safety. , I wish one day when my husband ready to live Philippines and build our own house i want to hire you. Good man and treat workers good way,beside they are slowly trained by you the correct building the house concrete. God bless you and Donna smart too .
Hi Guys. Keep doing what you are doing. Its great professional job ..
Your correct under your stairs is best place in a earthquake. Super strong 😊😊😊😊
sobrang tibay ng bahay na yan. .basta maraming budget talaga, unlimited.
Wow… more power, you guys are blessed👍😎
Very good investments to buy real properties since they are becoming expensive. And to build a house and sell it is the best investment. 😃👏
I really love watching ur building videos...its so nice to watch. we can also get some ideas bcoz richard explain it well...
Yes I always think about Quinton, thks for sharing about him, with lots of love n blessings. God bless him. Jesus loves u son. You decided to serve ur country n ur people, hv high regards for d army men, bcoz of their selfless service. Bless Quinton
