Oh my. That is spectacular. I adore stained glass windows and I'd love to examine all those crests. The architectural details and construction methods always fascinate me.

This is quite helpful. Many thanks and please post more👍

Very helpful video, thank you. For a specific case. Can you offer some help with video or illustration for making a Cantilever suspended Balcony? About 13 feet out from building structure.

YOU ARE THE MAN!

Real Life Architect Thanks yes! Just finished my 2nd year at Brookes and I would like to know what tasks would a rookie do in the year out. Many thanks in advance.

@@miguelmoncloacastillo1160 that is a great topic! I did my year out 20 years ago in Sydney. I wasn’t enjoying architecture school and went travelling with some friends just to get some space. I eventually found work in a small practice and it saved me. I would not be an Architect today if I hadn’t worked for those guys.

Real Life Architect Sounds like a good experience. Fingers crossed and hopefully you'll get the time to make a video about this topic, thousands of architecture students like me will thank you. Cheers Neil.

Please can you show me a cut roof section of a skillion roof that has a 1.8m long cantilever at two sides?

Thanks Neil. What techniques would you suggest to prevent the cold bridging? Thanks

Insulate everything. Cantilevers are very tricky because the structure is partially inside and partially outside. The inside part must be insulated

can you explain the math for sizing a steel beams for this project, distancing and other consideration working with steel frames? I am also concern about the heat lack through the frame, since I leave in a humid environment, I don't want to compromise the longevity of my tiny building :) Thanks a lot!

@1:46 what is the fascia for the cantilever there? We have one and are worried about what to use, especially at corners for expansion.

The black trim is grey aluminium, the white trim is UPVC

Great video, what do you think justifies a cantilever?

@RealLifeArchitecture

It fulfils a function, just like any other Architectural feature. If a building needs shelter, shade or something to signify “entrance”, a cantilever does the job. They can also visibly unify an elevation, tying the overall composition together.

What would be the max. span (wall to wall) for a 2 by 12 soft wood ceiling joists (12 being vertical), that would not bend under snow or it's own weight? i'm looking for a direct approximate answer, i just don't get the online tables ?

Legally, I can’t answer that. I can do the maths (bending moment calculations) but, as a register architect, I can’t specify that for you, even in the UK. If you are in the US, my Insurance won’t cover me. Your best bet is contact a structural engineer

So if I said 'how about a 6m cantilever on a 24m long reinforced concrete beam' would you say that sounds about right or would you run for the hills? 🤞🤞🤞
