In Part 6 of The Extension series, which follows the build of a side and rear extension on a semi-detached property, we see the joists and steels slotted into position in preparation for the removal of a load bearing wall at the back of the house.
The wall is being knocked out to extend the existing kitchen and create a kitchen/diner on the ground floor and an additional bedroom on the first floor.
This episode includes:
- Cutting joists to fit the steel beam
- Spacing the joists out with noggings and the challenges associated installing joists and steels.
- Using Strongboys to support the outer and inner skin at the same time
- Trimming the existing floor joists so they can sit in the web of the steel beam
- Cutting out the brickwork
- Lining up the holes of the two steel beams
- Bolting timber on to the steel beam for the jiffy hangers
- Expansion joints
- Insulation
- Using jiffy haners/joist hangers
This episode features products from: Evolution; Snickers Workwear; Milwaukee; Fein; Bosch; Arbotech; Stabila; Ecotherm; Teco and Rhino Scaffolding.

It amazes me that non builders would dare to do a project such as this,the knowledge needed is immense.

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

I am guilty of that. I would have a go at anything. The important thing is to watch as many videos as possible and read up as well. Mark, for example, was not happy with the whole way we went about this and he said he would have tackled it in a completely different way.

I don't think you could ever pay me enough to be a builder in the UK. I've done reno's on buildings in the US and in Aus, but the detail and trades needed in a UK build are just crazy, not to mention the weather! Great that you include the goofs, dirty level and whoops we're all on the wrong side of this beam! Come on if your really in the trade, we've all done it, so might as well have a laugh about it.

@RobindeJongh 5 лет назад

Thanks for the great video. You rightly point out that dwangs or noggins need to be full depth in order to stop the floor joists twisting. Especially here at the bearing on the steel these need to be full depth if not on joist hangers. The joists spanning tables from Trada provide further details.

@roadrunnerblink 4 года назад

Great videos. How come those steels run inside the brickwork of the original house like that? (The area that the acro’s are propping up) Is it just easier than pocketing all the joists into the brickwork separately? Or is it serving another purpose as well? Thanks 👍

@leeburwood3073 6 лет назад

Great vid as normal. I miss those days of putting joists into walls. In Suffolk its been against building regs since about 2003. We can only use masonry hangers or fixed wall plate. The only time we can do it is in special circumstances like a curved wall with lots of silicone after its bricked in

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

Lee Burwood Hi Lee The drawing showed masonry hangers but, where possible I would rather build them in because they are less bouncy. We will have to take a chance on the building inspector being happy. We have let the mortar and timber shrink for a while so it is now time to gun some Blower Proof or similar in around all those joists. You can get plastic pockets to house them in. We have 90mm of Ecotherm behind the joists so they shouldn't get damp.

@sprintervanconversions 3 года назад

Nice video! That 'twist' in the joists is called lateral torsional buckling. If the joists have been designed to have have noggins, they should be full height noggins at 1/3 spacing so the floor/roof acts as one system, not individual members. Very interesting to see your temp works there though! What are those brackets coming out the brickwork bolted to the scaffold pole? never seen them before. Cheers :)

@stephenfalken 6 лет назад

Recently found your videos Roger as im a DIYer who frequently turns to RU-vid! It's awesome how down to earth you are and take the time to explain things. Many professional builders I have met seem to dislike explaining things, almost like it's their special super power not to be shared! I also notice you are not afraid to acknowledge that sometimes people show different opinions (ie, one of your videos where you mention plasterers disagreeing) which is an admirable trait!

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

Andy You can understand why builders like to keep their information close to their chests but nobody can stop information being shared and in the end a lot of people will still hire a professional but they will have enough to take an interest in the job and maybe spot where things can go wrong.

@stevensdbuild9524 6 лет назад

Thanks for the vids as always Roger but why not just fit full depth blocking to help stiffen the joist web? If memory serves any span over 2300 needs them and they’d only take slightly longer than the noggins. If you want space for services then do herring bone or even the metal off the shelf herring bone ties. Big fan anyway and thanks for taking the time to set up, film, and edit. As a chippy and builder you’d think I’d see enough at work.

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

Ah! Steven, you stole my thunder. I have now fitted the mid-span full-depth blocking and one more idea that helps take the whip out. I am told that herringbones beat blocking because blocking shrinks and herringbone tightens.

@stevensdbuild9524 6 лет назад

Skill Builder Sounds about right. Hard to get the time for herring bone nowadays but so much better. Allows air flow and leaves plenty of room for running services.

@stephenjdixon1 6 лет назад

@mrboyban 3 года назад

@MrAbdulHaque 3 года назад

Is the steel beam a concealed beam for the finished look? Do you have pictures/videos of the finished look of the ceiling where the ceiling opens up? Also in the finished look, were there nibs pertruding from the inner walls to support the steel beams?

No nothing to see it is all hidden.

@letsgocamping88 6 лет назад

Lovely job hour doing there. why captive nuts at the steel intersection as opposed to a clearance hole, nut and washers? Would make fitting a damn sight easier.

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

It would but the steel could move on the bolts and that would cause the masonry above to crack

You don't need a joist hanger if they sit in the web but you need to bolt some timber noggins in between each joist so you can fix them in place.

Hi, just a quick question. You mention towards the end that you were considering notching and slotting the joist directly into the steel beam but you didnt as you only had an inch of flange. If you were to rest joist directly on a steel beams flange, how much of the joist needs to rest on it? Thanks in advance

@SkillBuilder 4 года назад

I would like a 2 inch bearing but would settle for 40mm with solid blocking in between each joist to eliminate and sideways movement.

@SkillBuilder 4 года назад

It is often done to reduce the weight. One steel is heavy and you need a large plate above it to support the cavity wall so 2 steels gives you the wider support.

Skill Builder thanks, I need a steel to go on at my extension, it’s 9m long, 300x300mm and 2.1 tonne :( I can have lighter steel if I have it in 2 parts with a post in the center but we want it open plan, I thought what you did may be a way round it but at the end of the day it’s down to the structural engineer I guess lol Good channel by the way

Good video , only question I have is how come you used engineers for the steel an not have a steel post underneath to hold the steel ?

@SkillBuilder 6 лет назад

sometimes you use a steel post and sometimes not. I like a post but an engineering brick pier is how they always used to do it. Look at the all the old railway bridges built to take a steam train. They all use steel on engineering brick. The weight those steels are holding up is hardly anything in the great scheme of things

@SJBBrickwork 6 лет назад

Skill Builder yeah when I was younger we always built brick piers , lot of inspectors we use know like a post , brick pier with pad just as strong tho
