The platform (floor structure) is typically site-built prior to the yurt arriving. This is why it was not included in the timelapse of the yurt installation, which occurred over seven hours. Although plumbing could be added through the flooring, this particular yurt does not have plumbing.
I have a friend who has a yurt in his backyard, when I 1st saw it, I thought: Wow, pretty nice, and pictured myself in one living a relaxed time, well, I came to find out, they are really not cheap at all, and researching, found out, it is really not worth the money as an option for a permanent living space, since after spending over $30.000+ for a reduced-limited around 700Sq-Feet of Yurt, makes you think, other options can be consider for half of the price, so my dream of yurt, puffed-off! :(
@GennBoy you could build your own out of scrap wood (make strips with a bandsaw) and a few tarps? insulate it with shredded newspapers or dead leaves in bags stitched together or something like that? use your brain!
@venomousbird Exactly ;) Then you do not need to spend over $30.000+ in a yurt, but you saved money on an "Invention" of your own!..I was talking about the "YURT" we are seeing on the video, I did pay a call to Pacificyurts and that's why I said what I said!
@GennBoy That is very expensive. You can get a AI Kit Dome home for less. AI dome uses 1/3 the energy of a well insulated home and it can survive a hurricane tornado wildfire lightening strike has a life expectancy of 500 years. IDK about you but I think I would rather pay the money to build the dome? Oh and concrete is a decent barrier to shield from radiation. Ron Paul 2012
A very old, very practical way of putting together a dwelling. Extremely comfy, too, from what I've read! Now, I wish the emergency services agencies of the world would investigate this type of structure for disaster victim dwellings...even if they had to stay in them for a long time, it's still better than an expensive, hard to ship trailer!
I think my husband might be able to handle this. I am sending for a brochure now. Looks like it could be a great vacation site or maybe a work studio.
it's not an yurt! it's called GER(mongol ger)

I have a piece of land that I plan to retire to. I have been saving up over the years to purchase one of these to live in during retirement.
