Hello lovers of architecture and design, we are still without internet at home living in a rural area is a wonder we are in the middle of nature is really something wonderful but this also has its pros, as for the installation of service tufo is slower than expected but still decided to make efforts to not be so absent and more if it is the progress we are giving in the Green Home Ecological and Intelligent House in Architecture with Container ', we are happy to announce that we have already started work to expand the container house and be more comfortable in it, so far we feel very well in this space, but certainly gain more meters will be wonderful and especially to be able to have this house container and be more comfortable in it.
We are happy to announce that we have already started the work to expand the container house and be more comfortable in it, so far we feel very well in this space, but certainly gain more meters will be wonderful and especially to have this house that both dream of open space where the interior and exterior are connected.
Now we also have our YouTube where we are sharing videos of the construction of the Green Home,
I will accompany some of my publications
also with these videos where you can see more closely the processes, here is the first one.

Some time ago in one of my posts I talked about the design of our container house and the extensions that would make us gain even more space to have more comfort.
This first extension will be for the installation of our bathroom and dressing room.


Every work starts with planning and this was the first step, based on the plans and soil studies we had to plan the steps to follow.
While Ivan was in charge of freeing the space of land by a landslide that occurred during the rainy season that covered much of this area, as you can see in the video this was a process of several days.
It was time to get down to work! So @arrozymangophoto and I after planning went to action, and with the calculations and measurements, we could easily adjust to what we wanted, because we already had clarity of what we had to do.
This extension is 4 meters long by 1.50 meters wide where we will have a comfortable area to install our bathroom and dressing room.
The bases that we will build for this extension will be 3, each one at 1.50 meters deep, 1 meter underground and 50 cm in sight, as they are the ones we initially built, where our maritime container is already installed, two of these first bases will also serve as support for the structure.
For the construction of the metallic structure we have a tube of 5x2 and 3x1/2 inches to assemble the grill.


For the floor of this extension we will use an anime construction sheet with galvanized mesh on both sides, this type of material facilitates the installation of the pipes of the white water and sewage.
As we always seek to reuse and recover construction materials this time we will do it with these tubes and sheet.


It's time to finish moving this earth, it's time to mark to start the excavations.
Soon we will bring you another chapter where we will start the reinforcement of the base structures and the wooden caissons for the concrete pouring.
I hope you will like the video and that you will also be part of this community through this way where we are building a Green Life!

Hola amantes de la arquitectura y el dise帽o, a煤n estamos sin internet en casa vivir en una zona rural es una maravilla estamos en medio de la naturaleza es realmente algo maravilloso pero esto tambi茅n tiene sus pro, en cuanto a la instalaci贸n de servicio tufo es m谩s lento de lo esperado pero a煤n as铆 decidimos hacer esfuerzos para no estar tan ausentes y m谩s si se trata de los avances que estamos dando en el Hogar Verde Casa Ecol贸gica e Inteligente en Arquitectura con Container '
Estamos felices de anunciarles que ya iniciamos los trabajos para ampliar la casa container y estar m谩s c贸modos en ella, hasta ahora nos sentimos muy bien es este espacio, pero sin duda ganarle m谩s metros ser谩 maravilloso y sobre todo poder tener est谩 casa que tanto sue帽o de espacio abierto donde el interior y el exterior se conecten.

Hace alg煤n tiempo en una de mis publicaciones les hable del dise帽o de nuestra casa container y de las ampliacion que nos harian ganar a煤n m谩s espacio para tener m谩s comodidad.
Esta primera extensi贸n ser谩 para la instalaci贸n de nuestro ba帽o y vestier.


Toda obra inicia por la planificaci贸n y esto fue el primer paso, bas谩ndonos en los planos y estudios de suelo debimos plantear los pasos a seguir.
Mientras Iv谩n se encargaba de liberar el espacio de tierra por un deslizamiento que se di贸 en las temporada de lluvia que cubri贸 buena parte de esta 谩rea, como lo pueden ver el el video este fue un proceso de varios d铆as.
Llego el momento de poner manos a la obra !! As铆 que @arrozymangophoto y yo luego de la planificaci贸n fuimos a la acci贸n, ya con los calculos y medidas, pudimos ajustarnos f谩cilmente a lo que buscamos, porque ya ten铆amos claridad de lo que ten铆amos que hacer.
Est谩 extensi贸n de 4 metros de largo por 1.50 de ancho donde tendremos un area c贸moda para instalar nuestro ba帽o y vestier.
Las bases que construiremos para esta extensi贸n ser谩n 3, cada una a 1.50 a una profundidad, 1 metro bajo tierra y 50 cm a la vista, como son las que inicialmente construimos, d贸nde ya est谩 instalado nuestro contenedor mar铆timo, dos de estas primeras bases tambi茅n servir谩n de soporte para la estructura.
Para la construcci贸n de la estructura met谩lica tenemos un tubo de 5x2 y 3x1/2 pulgadas para armar la parrilla.


Para el piso de esta ampliaci贸n utilizaremos una lamina de construcci贸n anime con malla galvanizada por ambas caras este tipo de material nos facilita la instalaci贸n de los tubos de las aguas blancas y servidas .
C贸mo siempre buscamos reutilizar y recuperar materiales de construcci贸n est谩 vez lo haremos con estos tubos y lamina.


Lleg贸 de terminar de mover esta tierra lleg贸 el momento de marcar para iniciar las excavaciones.
Pronto les traeremos otro cap铆tulo donde iniciaremos el armado de hierro con cabillas de las estructuras de las bases y los cajones de madera para el vaciado de concreto.
Espero que les gustar谩 el video y que tambi茅n sean parte de esta comunidad por esta via donde estamos construyendo una Vida + Verde !!
