welcome back guys and what a way to wake up snow falling Northern Illinois
November 9th so I don't know when you're gonna see this video that all depends on
how quick I get to edit it but we're back here for day two of framing and
we've got to deal with the white stuff at least until it melts and then we'll
deal with more mud so our goal today we're gonna try to get the rest of these
trusses up get the purlins on start working on some overhangs I was going to
bring the 33 94 mega deck but honestly it probably wouldn't even make it around
I didn't want to haul it on the roads this morning so we'll go ahead and do it
the old-fashioned way for now it should be pretty easy to get these
trusses up that's a wet snow
yeah I think we're gonna have to shovel it buddy it's too wet
so this header detail here is gonna be a little unique because we do have a truss
that lines up about right here when we don't have a column and what we're
basically doing is treating this whole front wall like a header and even though
we're gonna have a column here we're gonna go ahead and header off from this
column to this column because the customer wants a window in the middle of
the space but there's actually a post supposed to be like right here
well Greg is doing is putting a couple blocks on and then we're gonna put some
structural grk screws through and then that way we can mount the 2 by 12 double
header on the front it's gonna go all the way across to this column and then
we're gonna have another header that's gonna go from this column to that column
because we've got what we call stub columns they're just gonna be little
stubby's at the top of this header so Zacks making up the stub column it's
gonna be a 2 ply so there's gonna be two of these little shorties in the middle
of some taller ears and that's gonna to it that's going to be to accept the
truss here and here as well as the double trust that's going to come from
this this corner way back here across it's going to be one of these and then
we're gonna have a smaller truss that's gonna define this space attached to that
so these are the structural gr KS we're using these are five and three-eighths
five sixteenths they're gonna replace your carriage bolt or your lag bolts now
this is kind of pretty when the Sun comes out the snow starts melting we're
framing
nor do I let it out one of those swings and I'll edit out the mist so it'll look
like you hit it three times perfect kind of a unique situation here we have zero
posts that actually support a trust directly you know typically what you're
gonna see is like right here we've got a center notch the truss sits in there and
that's where we put all of our bolts well on this building we're literally
having to do headers across the whole thing do two groj door openings and
right here customer wanted a window right in the middle so I just made the
decision to not go ahead and put a column there and we're just gonna header
it off with the double two by 12 stack and the interior will also get done so
adds for a little bit of time makes it a little bit more difficult and I just
realized here that this board needs to be removed because right here I got a
mark I got to run my porch header right in this location I I got a little
anxious or excited and we went ahead and framed this wall stood it up yesterday
and as soon as we did it we're like dang it we're gonna be bringing out the saws
off so you gotta cut some nails these fascicle jumbo nails do not pull they
you'll pull the head right through the lumber so I just use my claw to get it
separated just enough
and then I'll just cut it that is how good blades are these days you man used
to just burn through that stuff so the next trust that we're gonna be putting
up you can see has this random 2x8 going down the middle well the reason for that
is that's for flashing our side wall where it comes into the trust because
this point is where the peak of the smaller side meets the roof of the
taller side so the Front's are all the same but as it comes up the peak is not
centered on both sections it's offset so then we're gonna have this kind of rear
side wall showing but I think it's gonna be kind of cool so what we're gonna do
is we're gonna go ahead and pick up the next truss and we're gonna set it right
on top of this truss and we're gonna laminate it together that way we can put
them both up at the same time this should be fairly interesting we've got
the double ply trust not really sure where we're gonna pick it from so I'm
just gonna kinda
give it a whirl
it's a little awkward let's see what happened man
we need to go that way a little or can you balance it
we think you'd be I'll keep that up to Greg or do you want to move it to the
next spot over huh get up there okay here we go
got all the trusses up we've got our purlins stacked and ready to go you can
see here now how this two-ply I don't know it's a little dark how this two-ply
it basically is defining this little building and it's connected to the other
trust that defines big building but we're gonna be losing daylight probably
before we know it the Sun is already headed towards the horizon we got
purlins to run and hopefully some fascia and stuff so let's go Here I am up here
on this truss detail kind of see the goal was for our purlins to sit right on
top of the one truss and then plane into this 2 by 8 we had that 2 by 8 put there
so that when we run our roof and then we put all of our flashings it's gonna have
something solid to screw our steel and our flashings to otherwise we typically
if you've seen like we'll say the dream shop series we had to frame all that in
ourselves cuz I didn't think about it well I learned this time and had my
trust manufacturer put it in there for us
working on the front fascia overhangs one foot trying to get these overhangs
before this Sun Goes Down it's close it's gonna get dark on us again in it's
Friday make sure the job site is as clean as possible you can see we've got
got a ward here so end of day two framing we've got all of the trusses up
we got our purlins up we've got the overhangs and fascia on the front of the
building we don't have our scissor lift so we didn't mess with cutting all this
off we got the end fascia on so I think we're sitting pretty good steel is
supposed to be here first thing Monday morning we'll get this front wall
straightened out put on the steel and hopefully all these ground conditions
improve so we can get our scissor lift around the back and do the back steel
and fascia you can see now how we kind of like to leave our buildings we've got
our X chain bracing on all of our walls that's what's holding everything plumb
and then we've got our peak chain holding our peak from moving this way
and then we've got a cross chain here in the middle I'm not too concerned on this
small size of a building we don't have anything really blocking the wind and
we've got this one wall that's kind of this zigzag
and that does add some rigidity a little bit of something anyway it's not amazing
things can still move so that's why we've got our chains up just to be safe
