Container Home Concrete Floor

One of the.

Container home concrete floor. Then we poured the big central area of the floor. These floor plans prove that shipping container homes can be efficient sustainable and even exciting. Next we poured the little porch off the master bedroom plus the slab on container 4. The smallest container makes a tiny box of a home at about 100 square feet of floor space.

The floors are eco friendly anyway. The impression of luxury is strengthened with a saltwater pool wooden floors and incredible art featured on the walls in some rooms. Eight larger containers together can make a two story house at about 1400 square feet. As we poured concrete we pulled the walking boards back and lifted the rebar into place in the slab.

Next the guys had to mix more concrete. Concrete does not deplete natural resources requires less energy than other floor types to produce and is made poured locally. Concrete is good for indoor air quality because it inhibits mold mildew and odors contains no potentially harmful vocs and can be finished with zero voc sealers. This is the pouring of the cement floor.

Modern shipping container homes cannot get more luxurious than this. Hundreds of container micro apartments together can make a huge apartment building. Some time ago i found in the road an eight foot piece of aluminum 2 x4 rectangular tubing. Made of two containers this house was designed by spray architecture for living and working or rather creating.

The floors are made of concrete and fir while the large panels made of glass are found on every side of the constructions. Here s armando walking a five gallon bucket of concrete to the far end of the container. It made a perfect screed to level the concrete. Here is the completed floor in the dry room this room will have a dehumidifier in container 3.
