What happens here

With the posts securely set, the crew begins laying out and attaching the main horizontal support beams to the posts. This involves carefully measuring and cutting lumber to fit between the posts and then fastening them securely. The video shows workers using levels to ensure beams are plumb and straight. This is the foundation for the main floor system, ensuring a sturdy and level base for the yurt.

Goal: Attach horizontal support beams to the vertical posts to form the platform's perimeter.

Tools and materials

What they say

so next we're going to start laying out the pose footings but while we're doing that I want to share some of the information that I realized as I was doing my research on different tiny homes and options out there and one of those is with most tiny homes there's not more value per square foot in a tiny home than there is in a regular home like you see right here and what I mean is is you're it's you're getting a tiny home but you're not getting a tiny budget a house like this costs anywhere from 200 to 250 dollars per square foot to build now if you take the cost of a tiny home which I've seen some of these tiny homes going for sixty thousand dollars plus and you divide that by the amount of square footage you're getting you're not paying less for a tiny home than you would if a regular home you're just getting less square footage [Music]
