>>2801353lmao
>>2801353>>2801363>>2801401lmao. they have this shit called osb which they reckon shores the whole structure up. in saying that building 7 fell down out of nowhere too and that wasnt 'osb'. maybe its the mcdonaldization of their building sector. good enough for the first owner.

>>2801412this is what wood construction looks like in Switzerland
For all you know it alls…this is called racking in framing. Not enough wind braces on the ends with all the openings. Walls should have been sheeted when erected…Mexicans

>>2801353sincere question: who the fuck pays for this? The construction company's insurance?
>>2801419>Do you really think that there will be structural insulation and stucco?No, but there will be structural sheathing that reinforces the structure and prevents precisely the shear failure that occurred in OP webm related.

>>2801437white glue is water soluble, it'll just happen again
It should be illegal to timber frame unless its for your personal residence. Wood is nice because it is feasible for someone to build their own house, but once you have jews involved everything goes to shit since it's a race to the bottom and we end up with that shit and OSB.
>>2801412>2014Now post an impoverished part of an american town.

>>2801353Don't you need to put sheathing on a story at a time to avoid this?Criminal.management that could have happened with people working on it.
>Structural sheathingaka a cope for Americans that build a weak ass structure out of Mcdonalds fries and particle boards, and then cope by saying that it doesn't matter that it's weak because a few layers of mdf and cardboard that forms the outside and inside walls is going to magically make everything stiffer and remove the need for diagonal bracing
>cope>cope>magicallyyep, i'm thinking this guy is no cap retarted. so cringe ong

>>2801554>Not my fault youre an idiotWho's the idiot? I've seen plenty of walls stood up without sheathing, as has anyone who has been around much construction. I never said it is always done either way. You're the idiot who thinks that.Wear your idiot badge with pride.

>>2801597>apartment building built in 2020So commie block but the facade is white/gray instead of biege.
>>2801604if commieblock is energy efficient, modern and up to date, sure call it that way if it's so important for youthe fact is, a stick house higher than a story and a half here will not be allowed, because even we have some standards for building quality
>>2801610We make stick commie blocks here.
Enough with the brother wars frens.Both construction methods have their advantages.Brick and concrete is stronger. Timber literally grows on trees and makes even simple remodels like adding a new electric circuit very easy.Don't you see the solution?Brick and concrete exterior walls, timber frame interior.Strength where it matters. Cost savings where it does not.
>>2801448I build custom homes and almost no one opts for plywood and go with OSB. I don't understand it. These are million+ homes and they refuse the extra $6k for plywood
>>2801579I'm seriously considering it.
>>2801628You lie because osb is stronger and more resistant to moisture than plywood.You would know that if in fact you were a builder

>>2801562How dumb do you feel right now?
>>2801448That's stick framing, not timber framing.
Is stick frame really that much cheaper? I'm doing owner builder and post frame is way less labor, and materials seem a bit cheaper too. Every 12' you put a triply ply laminate 2x6 to create a bay. You can pour a 4' concrete pier and bolt it to the post or just drop the post in the hole fill with concrete. Roof trusses every 12' atop the posts. 2x6 girts/purlins pull everything into square. 29ga corrugated metal all over then gives it the needed strength for shear. Doors and windows can be placed willy-nilly because they're not in the way. Labor would have to be like $2/hr to be competitive with this. I don't even have to do a concrete slab. Just going to make a sealed crawlspace and then do stick frame for interior walls. Mcmansion aesthetics are important but at least a barndo won't collapse and kill someone. From the inside you wouldn't even be able to tell it's built using vastly superior methods.

>>2801816>>2801822How did you interpret me responding to a retard saying saying poor countries houses fall apart with a image of a some balkoid house that literally got lifted by a flood and moved and is in one piece as me saying stick framing is good.

>>2801353American construction is weird to say the least, the wall siding are supposed to help the structure hold, instead of the structure holding the sidings. No wonder a little bit of wind knocks houses down (except for the fireplace chimney LMAO!).

How did we get psyop'd into not only accepting houses made with subpar materials built by brownoids, but acting as if they are superior to brick?
>>2801981I also love mold and dying from earthquakes that my timber frame house has survived.
>>2801969this, but unironically.It's like building a house by stacking up common bricks without mortar and then being surprised if it falls down.Sticks + plywood is an assembly. They work together. The sheathing adds an enormous amount of structural strength in shear.
>>2802001see>>2801713timber framed houses are absurdly strong>usually built on a beefy monolithic slab instead of a flat slab>1/4" or 1/2" steel hardware connections between concrete and wood instead of a few ramset nails or simpson brackets>SIP's and elbow + knee bracing instead of relying on 7/16" osb for shear>every piece of wood is safety factored 3x because engineers don't deal with timber frames commonlydon't confuse timber framing with stick framing or balloon framing, it could save your life

>>2802214Leave plywood and osb outside long term in the weather and OSB just degrades and fall apart after long enough. Cheap bastards use plywood to sheath outbuildings and don't even paint or cover them and they still last a long time.

>>2801822The left side of the house is fucking gone and foundation doesn't even have any fucking footings. No wonder it got loose in a flood.
>>2802370My house is not veneer brick, it's made of concrete block with actual stucco, not that EIFS shit. My guess is it's specified due to the ability to withstand hurricanes and the insanity of termites here. Looking at newer house construction, I can tell you they still use block. It's the shitty apartments that have turned to wood with fake brick veneers. For the rest of the country you're correct, though. Having lived in the mid-Atlantic there was no brickwork but veneers made in the last century in single family homes.

>>2802368in the pic related of the post you quote, see that gray thing on the wall and lying on the car's roof? it's 10cm of thermal insulation. It's as thick as the entire wall in your stick house.
>>2802373pretending to be stupid or it comes naturally?the left side of the house is buried in the ground, because that was a landslide with a lot of water and the foundation is half of the concrete you see on the bottom (about 50cm) which is adequate for that size of a buildingin the meantime, the buildings in NY built in the beginning of the century are literally bricks stacked from the ground level with absolutely no foundations under them

Balkanoid's got the best houses in yurop structurally speaking. That is a shallow foundation and it's no wonder it just went down a hill. Very likely an illegal build without any consideration for the terrain it was being built on, yet even with no oversight the house itself held up near perfectly. If it wasn't involved in a huge flood it could well have stood today.
>>2801792>Should just build a layer of decorative brick on the outside and call it a day.It's not worth when these days you're gonna insulate it first. Styrofoam is cheap as shit but as you should know these houses are left like this either because of financial mismanagement or because no one is living there because everyone is in the city to wageslave. Sad situation really.Once insulation is placed you can build said brick wall or be cheap and plaster it over with the glue and mesh which lasts 10 years instead of 100.>>2802001>I also love moldWhat is cavity wall insulation?

>>2802501>surface mount What are we living in garages now?
>>2801789>>2802612Let me tell you about this building method because it’s absolutely genius. It’s used not only in the balkans but everywhere these days, you see it in Mozambique, in Brazil, in Romania, Cambodia and a ton of other countries. You see how small the concrete sections are? This makes it easy for one guy with one ladder to build the entire house but it’s ALSO possible for 5 guys to do it 5 times as fast with little extra instructions or planning. It only uses easy to obtain materials and each ‘section’ can be delivered by a single truck (mortar, bricks, rebar and corrugate). The concrete is mixed on site and a pump isn’t needed because they can wheelbarrow it up. In countries with good climates they dont bother putting windows, in other climates they put cheap pre fabricated PVC windowsills because these houses don’t ‘settle’. You can teach an 18 year old the entire process in about a year.> but muh hurricanesThese survive a hurricane just fine. They resist the earthquakes and mud slides that South America and Asia see because as long as the rebar holds, a crack isn’t too bad and the concrete shell doesn’t break.In the worst case (eg UN bombings or shelling during the Kosovo war) the red blocks just fall out of the concrete and you literally just put them back when the war is over.

>>2803263Exterior insulation is closed cell, so it doesn't get wet and moldy.

>>2802368>>Not a scrap of thermal insulationYou can literally see the fire rated styrofoam insulation in the picture LMAO fucking blind muttoid
>>2803263>keeping your insulation dryIt does if there's a waterproof membrane. Breathability is an advantage. There is literally no need for a vapor barrier on external insulation because no condensation forms on it.On external wall insulation like picrel the plaster layer typically goes to shit in 10-20 years, I've seen them last over 30 at times, the insulation and wall behind it remains perfectly fine. A cavity wall of solid brick on the outside could last as long as the house, at least 100 years.>>2803346Wha? You don't see me complaining. My house from the 70s only had very limited issues in the basement, presumably more caused by moisture due to capillary action, the crude waterproofing from the 70s has probably worn out entirely. Even before external wall insulation the upper floors never had such issues.These days you have all sorts of polymer based shit and bitumen sheets that are melted which you can see used around the foundations in >>2802612 and that will probably last as long as the structure itself.

>>2804033soon everywhere
>>2804053That particular one is in Switzerland. The largest in the world is the Ascent MKE building in Wisconsin, and it's built absurdly strong.
>>2804242Wow these Davids sure are stupidWorking years in New York just to save up money to live in a broom closet in ChinaReally living the dream there
>>2801412Every European city is the same>NAFRIs wandering around trying to rob you.>Money changing stands trying to rip you off>"Ristorante Italiano" run by some Romanians or the mob.>Starbucks and McDonalds everywhereIf I wanted to go to an international tourist trap, I could just go to EPCOT.
>>2803343> Shit where you eat
>>2804027All that wasted space due to the incline, just so you can park a car half-assedly underneath?
>>2802701The floor slabs are also often assembled out of prefab elements and concreted over. Of course this is not as strong as pure reinforced concrete but much cheaper and doesn't let nearly as much sound through.

>>2801422First build a steel building, then build a wooden one inside of it.
>>2802445No, it's the rice that fry the shrimp.
>>2803348>will look like that for decades to comedepends on if it's being build by contractor, or the owner himself. Those who build alone focus on getting the house up and moving in, external looks are pretty much at number 99 on the list of shit to be done. It took me about 5 years after i moved in before i decided to clad the house - a week for the first floor and then i had to wait a month until a friend of mine could hook me up with a scaffold. A proffesional firm would've costed me about 18k in USD, when doing it myself is 10k.

>>2805194kek this is fucking hilarious
>>2804801Used scaffold is often easy to find on Fecesbook Marketplace where I got mine and is well worth owning. One of my Baker style scaffolds sits in my garage as stout rolling shelving. If you work in motorcycles or anything that fits beneath you can hang it from the scaffold.
