Amazing Modern Basement Construction Technology - Amazing Ingenious House Construction Workers 

There are several clips of the opening that will become a stairway to the lower level.

Minor details, they don’t matter in modern construction like doors on planes.

How much do you think this would cost today?

@@clarityofthought ..I'm sure it's worth it. I worked fabricating walk-n coolers & freezers the exact same way from raw materials. We glued rigid foam between steel sheets. Then, we used a 'cam system' to lock the panels & doors with rubber seals. Don't cheep-out on the exterior bitumen & other sealing. This system should be used in areas like South Georgia, where basements turn into pools very quickly. 😎👍☕

What's the point of covering the basement with a layer of concrete instead of plywood? Sound insulation for a theatre room or something?

@@lilblackduc7312 Ah, that makes sense. As frequently as they get hit in places like Oklahoma, having a basement serve a second function as a legitimate tornado shelter should probably be the rule instead of the exception.

its like a new type of cool office but instead of superhigh is now under earth

My thoughts too, but I’d love to know kind of weight the ground floor is rated for!

Thank you!

В США чаще строят щитовые,которые сносят ураганы,съедают термиты. Почему вы не строите больше из бетона и кирпича? Ведь так дешевле и дольше стоит дом

@@BorecSkaznakradami Solid brick construction is more labor-intensive. Cost is the reason people build boxes on top of the ground and pump hot or cold air into those boxes. You wonder why they just pour slabs and stick boxes on them, until you see how cheap they are compared to the alternatives. For most Americans, heating and cooling a place, day to day, is/was affordable and reliable off the grid, so the biggest obstacle was/is the actual construction. Sure, they'd LIKE to have a basement, but then they see the cost and decide to settle for a crawl space.

not a contractor either but having seen a dozen builds today the order of operations here seems to prioritize cost-cutting and speed over long term sustainability. I really don't like how many vulnerabilities the various seams of this building method have. it might work fine in dryer warmer areas but this place is gonna be full of either bugs or mold in no time at certain latitudes :S

@@harrymills2770 Properly funded construction companies could build houses 100 at a time with basements Above the ground, and then backfill the whole area once they are built; then set about the above ground floors. Jesus is real.

Yeah, I noticed a lot of North American houses are built with wood. Making the house from another material might be best because of termites tho.

So they're vulnerable at the seams or just tend to crack? I didn't realize any of the exterior was styrofoam and seriously doubt any was. The walls were pre-cast concrete, not styrofoam.

@@ticktockbam Wood is cheap, plentiful, strong (modulo termites), and easy to work with.

As for the gaps between pre-cast walls; you could use one of the ~60,000 design/inventions God gave me; & use Silicone sealant with Termite poison in it to seal part of the gaps in concrete sections (as well as put it in powder form in the backfill). And as for the other chap talking about "wood being easier to work with", you also have to consider wood is also easier for hurricanes to wreak havoc with (in a country with one of the larges sources of concrete on planet earth).

"Amazing Modern Basement Construction Technology" Which part of this makes you think its about a finished house?

@@coreyg7364 Relax Corey, the man just wanted to see the finished house. I oughta...!!***##

Так это же цокольный этаж. Окна там максимум для вентиляциии.

Achei incrível também. Muito legal 👏👏😃

Not one family though is it? Built like this at least ten generations will benefit.

what happens to the water tht collects in those big plastic window well tubs?

Deve ter mas deve ser caro.

These are some expensive builds, spared no expense.

UK.

Yh, I thought that too; and it looked like this was filmed in the UK - how tf they got away with that I'll never know...

My thoughts too, and once you shore the wall… can you just add a floor and you have the basement? Haha

Nobody uses shoring for normal basement depth (like this) in Canada. Soil conditions and construction rules vary by location.

German engineering. We have been constructing these type of cellars here since the early seventies. I grew up in a house with one these. Absolutely waterproof.
