  I’m a siding contractor in Seattle and I’ve always thought this is the way a house should be built but I can only imagine the expense accrued for this igloo cooler type home.

• 
  @ProTradeCraft7 күн бұрын

  Think of the expense of all the energy that pours out of leaky homes. The cost of energy goes up on average 6% per year, but the cost of insulation that is already bought and installed never goes up. Also, people get sidetracked as if cost is the only issue. Health, comfort, and durability are three more benefits. I would love to see people complain about the payback period of big-screen TVs and smartphones, but we all buy them knowing they will never "pay for themselves." In siding-land, if you are doing a residing job, it is the absolute cheapest opportunity (aside from t=when the house was built) to significantly improve the house. The vast majority of the cost is the siding and the truckload of people to the site to tear off and replace the siding. Plus, exterior insulation is required by code in many climate zones now.

• 
  @ProTradeCraft15 күн бұрын

  No. Engineered trusses are engineered to work as a complete unit, not as a notched one. This would be something you'd discuss with your truss designer. I have seen some gable trusses that are dropped 3-1/2 inches, to accommodate the outlooks. Do not modify engineered trusses without the adult supervision of an engineer.

  I believe they are roughly the same price as regular Pella windows. The innovations are not expensive ones, just smart ones. The time these windows will save you on the installation side (think about all of those second-floor windows you don't want to push up a ladder) will certainly pay for a wheelbarrow full of beer to celebrate the easy installation. Also, windows are a place to NOT cheap out; energy performance features matter.

  Well, it was donated to this project for the video, so remarkably cheap. In the real world it is remarkably NOT cheap. The installation is a little nonstandard, as this was the first one ever installed on a jobsite, and it happened during the early days of COVID, so the crane operator wouldn't come to the site, which is why they tried it with a Bobcat, and the engineers were on a zoom call while the guys worked on installing it. This installation dictated tweaks to the design for ease of installation. I think it took half a day, for three or four people, including the Bobcat driver.

  Got it wrong on XPS vs EPS. XPS does absorb moisture, only slower....but that also means it dries slower which is not good for draining applications. The moisture absorption test is a 24hr test...hardly applicable to real world. EPS has the same compression strength available. You are drinking the Kool-aid from big blue and big pink.

• 
  @ProTradeCraft15 күн бұрын

  You can order XPS and EPS on many different densities. In general, the white beadboard EPS that you get off the shelf is less tolerant of underground applications. The XPS that is found at most lumberyards is suitable for underground applications. Products and materials are not inherently good or bad, just the uses people force them into. Steel I beams make terrible pillows, but excellent structural members.

  Then it is a LOT more difficult and expensive to remove and replace. Superinsulating from the inside may be a better option, though I have seen builders spray foam the outside of a masonry block home with a system of 2x2s bolted to angle brackets screwed into mortar joints to create a space for three inches of high-density spray-foam insulation plus an air space. The 2x2s were used to fasten Hardy Plank siding into.

  Energy efficiency requirement such as external continuous insulation, water barrier membrane, increased insulation requirements, and other net zero designs Many cities are mandating these now.

These increased in materials and labour cost are not a big deals for custom built mansions but definitely a huge cost driver for smaller, budget houses. Most will rather have a house to live in than achieving perfect energy efficiency.

• 
  @ProTradeCraftАй бұрын

  The roof is not framed with 2x4 trusses. It is framed with solid lumber. When ordering engineered trusses, you need to specify how you're going to build the house. Sometimes, a gable truss will be shorter, allowing outriggers to rest on top, othertimes, engineers will make the top course of tha gable truss thicker to allow notching. DO NOT MODIFY ENGINEERED FRAMING UNLESS APPROVED BY A STRUCTURAL ENGINEER Framing with solid lumber is MUCH DIFFERENT than framing with engineered lumber.

  @oadesignbuildarchitecture96882 ай бұрын

  Great questions! We did some wingnut style testing on the adhesive a few years ago. It bonds to XPS pretty well, and doesn't eat away at the foam. (turns out they are chemical cousins.) We know that it bonds to wood as well, so it was a logical choice. We've used this on a few projects now and also with a pvc sheet to xps panel with success. The long term adhesion isn't known, but considering how easily the Iso releases from the ZIP, I'm not overly concerned. The glue needs to last long enough to get the panel on the wall. We do have shear requirements, but they are all met within the framing before the panels. The engineer is treating these with the same values as designing for the ZIP R12 product. We're about 8 years into working with this kind of system now. It gets easier, but there's still quite a bit of thinking around layout and tools that needs constant tweaking. Glad you enjoyed it!

  @@oadesignbuildarchitecture9688 How do you get your lateral resistance? That's what we are figuring out with ZIP R6. Our engineer has us tighten up nailing but the time will come when we need more shear than the panel will provide (e.g large windows in a shorter wall).

  Hi, Thanks. No, it wasn't a price thing. Georgia Pacific a sponsor of this episode, so we were happy to use their product. We wanted to check it out, anyway. Also, we wanted to show that you can make insulated panels on site. It solves some nailing problems with continuous exterior insulation and creates some airsealing problems. Spray foam or interior cavity air sealing must accompany built-up panels like this. At least that's what the smart people tell me. We also used similar panels for an exposed floor system, made with PVC sheets and Styrofoam. Stay tuned for that video.
