#strawbalehouse #sustainable Straw Bale House Build: Day 20 Clerestory
In order to create the pitch for our single slope, shed style trusses, we need to build a clerestory. We use 2X6s and cap it off with a 4X6 beam running the full length of clerestory. This will give our roof a 1:12 pitch which is not quite a flat roof.
With this pitch, we have the option of using a metal roof or an EPDM membrane, which is very common in the Southeastern US and is typically used for Mission and Adobe style homes also found in places like Santa Fe, NM.
Our next video will show getting the trusses up on the box beams, and we enlist the help of an All Star RU-vid Crew! You won't want to miss it!

Wow! You are really moving now. You're videoing on a phone? Fooled me. Very well done videos. I think I've seen them all, but don't remember you ever mentioning where you got all of your skills. I don't believe you made your living as a carpenter if I remember correctly. Still love to here more about your backgrounds and hoping for that video on how you chose tools before and during construction. Everything is quality craftsmanship. Also, looks like you took some time selecting lumber too. Just an amazing job from the start.

@theupsideofdownsizing 3 года назад

Thanks so much for watching. I spent many years working as a commercial photographer but strangely enough, never was really interested in video. I was a "print" guy. And yes, I do all of the filming using my phone, an LG G8 and edit on that same phone too. Yvonne and I have worked on several homes over the 26 years we've been together. So as you can imagine, we've collected tools over the years and have picked up project specific tools for our current homesteading adventure. The 12 inch sliding miter saw was purchased with larger beams and posts in mind like in this video, cutting 4x6 beams. One day we'll have to do a "LIVE" to answer just such questions......one day.

The top windows are such an elegant design detail, though I'm certain it has a practical application. Everything looks so neat, not shaggy as the word "straw" would suggest. I am wondering what machine you will use to install the roof. I am watching with glee and amazement at your progress!

@theupsideofdownsizing 3 года назад

Thank you. The roof will be completed using mostly good old fashioned manpower. ( Am I allowed to say that?) Maybe Human Power is more appropriate 😉 We had an exciting day of truss Installation today along with a great group of friends and fellow RU-vidrs.👍

@ourselfreliantlife 3 года назад

How many bales did you need for the walls? I forget. 😁 Also, I forgot to answer your question again. I didn't use the nailer, because of the piecemeal way I did the joists.

@theupsideofdownsizing 3 года назад

We ended up using 105 bales for the walls. We still have some stuffing to do and the areas above the windows need to be filled, but we have about 12 contractor bags filled with loose straw. We have about 20 bales left over, but between Yvonne's garden and some ideas I have for benches and other design elements, we'll probably have to get more.

@RedHotFiat 3 года назад

It's really starting to take shape now. The ends of those beams are a nice detail. I'm curious about the compressive strength of the straw bales. Will they settle or compress more at the corners than in the middle. Because of the window and door buck outs in the middle there is less straw bale to compress than at the corners. Is this an issue in straw bale construction?

@theupsideofdownsizing 3 года назад

There is definitely compression to consider. The density of your bales play a huge role in this too. We will wait until the roof is done before being to plaster just to give the bales a chance to settle. The amount of overall compression, using our bales, has been between 1 and 1-1/2 inches. Never noticed a difference in compression at the corners over the middle of the walls. Interesting thought though. Thanks for watching!

You know when you say "hit that notification bell" , well since last August utube do not notify folks using a lap top or pc. I understand if you are using a phone you still get notifications. I get not a single notification for any of the channels i sub to. I do however get notifications of any comments you or i make, i also get notification of anyone replying on my comment, i also get notifications of live feeds, or scheduled feed events, but not a single upload notice, poor show on utube.

@RobertWiggers 3 года назад

You could try to go to channels you want notifications from turn the bell "off" and "on" again. 9 out of 10 times that does the trick.

@lyndakarley2007 2 года назад

How did you decide on the 112 pitch? Great videos. I am really enjoying them.

@theupsideofdownsizing 2 года назад

The pitch was actually decided by the height of our clerestory windows. The 4 perimeter walls all have 4 courses of bales plus the box beam for a total of 8'6". The 24 inch high clerestory framing created the 1:12 pitch. Because we have no issues with snow loads, a flatter roof is not an problem. And for me, a flatter roof was more comfortable to work on with my fear of heights.

@@theupsideofdownsizing Ok, great! I asked because I was wondering if you are in a hot climate over there (I'm Dutch so I'm not). But if you were to glass up the windows on the non-sunny side of the house, in that upper part you put up in this vid, you still will have natural light but the not the green house effect you would get when the sun hits windows on the sun side of the house. I hope this makes any sense at all haha

@clydedecker765 3 года назад

Not worries but your saying clerestory as "clearstory" always gets me. Officially its "clairstree" although my English teacher preferred "clairestoree" Me - I just avoid using it since its an uncommon term in my world. You never said what you intend as windows there and do you intend to be able to open them for circulation?

@theupsideofdownsizing 3 года назад

We will have a combination of Non operable double pane windows in the south east corner above the kitchen, and bottle bricks in other segments of the clerestory. And still other segments will be filled with cobb. It's a work in progress. Just the way I like working. 😉

Will the clear story be a bad add if u had very cold winters?

@theupsideofdownsizing 3 года назад

It will be a combination of fixed double paned windows and bottle bricks. In the winter, they will actually add to the passive solar efficiency of the house. And in the summer, they will be shaded by the 3 foot overhang preventing unwanted solar gain.

Our fence posts needed to be re treated with linseed oil about a year later, whereas the oil based semi transparent stain we've used on exterior beams (on other projects) to look as good today as they did two years ago when originally treated.
