That LVL, looks like an easy use case for a steel beam/steel i-beam, which may have negated the need for the posts in the middle of the room.

I am so glad that I’ve come across this video as I am building a similar garage over a wood structure - very similar from a structural design point of view - but with a different membrane (but I like this one much better!). I really like how you detailed the slab at the garage door, making sure water won’t get in the structure below. Great video, awesome work! Thanks Tim!!

Glad I came across this video, brought up many good points, decided to incorporate similar design into my garage plans. Had architect review my design intent and local lumber yard sized up the carrying beams. Ended up with something very similar to design from the video. But, was wondering if you use temporary shoring during the pour? Thats where I've run out of local knowledge, since it isn't typically done locally. Seems like there would be suitable margin for the wet concrete given its not supporting vehicles at that point, but figured this was something you may be able to comment on? Also love the channel appreciate you sharing how things are done there.

I can’t believe they built it like this. I have a 3 car garage with a 3 car under garage. The footings had to be 8 feet under ground (unlike 4 ft for the rest of the house). 12” core filled block, 12” steel I-beam over the lower garage door. Then they craned in Spancrete panels before 4.5 inches of concrete over it to finish,

Could've been your soil, could also be that the additional three cars in the under-garage would add a whole lot more load to the foundation. And of course don't discount that they don't need to design for wind loads as their bounding case.

This is new to me and very interesting. Is concrete required for the garage floor or could it be another material? I don't know other options aside from multi-layer plywood (for strength) with a protective layer on top (maybe epoxy). Answering my own question I assume movement has a lot to do with this design.

A race car trailer is just 1/2" plywood with cheap vinyl peal and stick flooring. But in a house it also needs to be fire proof between the garage and house. So maybe osb, backer board and ceramic tile.

No steel, because maybe u used so many pounds of plastic fiber per so many yards of concrete?
@jonblakemore6454
Жыл бұрын
I'll take a crack at the answer. Steel is only useful for tension, which means the slab has to be deflecting slightly for the steel to be in tension. Since they can easily control how rigid the substrate under the concrete is (which you cannot as easily do with stone over dirt) take the money you would spend on steel and beef up the substrate so you have minimal deflection in the wood framing/subfloor.

@robertgeiger2268 just saw your comment. Fiber and rebar have two different functions. Rebar adds structural strength, fiber prevents plastic shrinkage cracking.
