Time Lapse House Build (faster)

[ixxx83]

I see. A lot of preparation is done before they pour in the concrete slab where I live (Quebec Canada).

They didn't seem to have done anything in this video before they poured in the concrete.

[ixxx83]

Houses get built everywhere around the world. It is just a matter of how they are built. Latin America seem to have them built out of concrete blocks. In the north, the structure is mostly made of wood.

Hey! I'm actually surprised this house does not have a basement. Where is this?

[ForeclosureDefensful]

@ixxx83 It's built in the north area of Tampa Bay. We call basements "indoor swimming pools" here. There are some areas in Florida (farther north) that can accommodate basements, but most people here just don't see the value. You'll also notice the poured slab. It's clearly not the best way to build a house as most builders don't allow the ground to settle before they pour, so you get cracks in the floor and wall as time passes and debris in the foundation begins to breakdown.

@ixxx83 Google "sinkholes, Florida", and you'll see there is a huge market for sinkhole repairs. These repairs aren't due to sinkhole activity though. They're due to the foundation not allowing to cure properly before the concrete slab is poured. Builders and sinkhole repair engineers will deny this, of course, but everyone knows the real causes.

haha in america you don't move house, you just build one out of wood? :p

[Year1Media]

@sedwarg Where are you? You don't build houses where you are? You just pick them up and move them? Tell me more.

[sedwarg]

@Year1Media Well, I've never heard of anyone building a house to move into, people just move into houses that other people are moving out of. Also, the fact it's all made of wood, our houses are made of bricks and cement

[MrZulu2065]

@sedwarg Your either a real fucking idiot, or you haven't actuall bothered to crack open a book or look up crap. Did you just get a computer?

[sedwarg]

@MrZulu2065 if you're going to insult me, at least explain your reasoning behind it.

[BeleducMartello]

@sedwarg not quite sure if you are trying to be funny or genuinely retard. anyhow, probably better if you just leave and never come back to the internet

[sedwarg]

@BeleducMartello explain or jog on

[BeleducMartello]

@sedwarg alright, i'll explain. when man was born on this planet there was only water, land, some animals, trees, flowers etc.. i.e. things we call nature. everything else in man-made, including cars, houses, cell phones.. so every house was build by somebody at some point

[sedwarg]

@BeleducMartello wow i must be talking to a genius... no seriously though you're chatting shit. usually companies build houses and people buy them new, they don't build their own house...

[BeleducMartello]

@sedwarg exactly. it is probably some construction company building that house hired by developer or owner

[pipidores]

you house is amazing!

[TheTrueSalpan]

@pipidores Not his.

I am about to do the same for a construction project estimated to last 10 months

Thanks

[MrCatbuttgum]

[mare291]

was it um noisy cause its across the street?

[slatton]

It was noisy. But it was worse for my kids, whose room I was shooting from. There is one frame (0:18) where they are pouring the foundation. They started that at 5am.

[cooldan11]

how long did they take to build the house from scratch

[TheBoomTube]

@cooldan11 4 months :P its in the description
