The roof is going up! Turn on the CC for subtitles.. Finally some timber for everybody who was waiting for the last 6 months:) The timber is In GL-24 class, posts are 10x24cm and the roof beams are 10x32cm and 12x32cm crossection, positions depending on the calculated loads. Posts were supposed to be 8x24cm but I decided to make grooves for the glass so I added two more centimeters in width. I didn't have time to install the horizontal beams that will separate the bottom and the top glass but will for the next video. Roof beams are 15 m long so they were too long for ordinary transport so I had to join them from two parts just above the central load bearing wall. The joint is traditional wedge but made on my cnc robot so it came out precise and snug. I was thinking about connecting the plates and the wood with steel dowels but in the end decided to go with bolts, The house will have an industrial look to it so the visible bolts will fit in nicely. As for the sheeting I used some used and some new shuttering boards. We planed and sanded one side and stained them in water based stain and a uv-resistant transparent top coat. The pattern of the boards is the same as glulam beams so they go together nicely. On top of that we spread the aluminium vapor barrier to keep it out of the insulation that will go on top of it.
