What this video covers

The crew of Zatara is constructing a 100-by-120-foot barn-dominium in Montana, featuring an 80-by-80-foot living area and a 6,400-square-foot shop.0:22 To prepare for the concrete slab, the team installed PEX tubing for a radiant floor heating system.0:39 The installation required removing excess gravel to ensure six inches of clearance below the slab surface.4:03 Before pouring the concrete, the crew pressurized the PEX circuits to 100 pounds per square inch to verify the integrity of the lines and to identify potential damage caused by rebar installation.10:54 The project includes provisions for a car lift, floor drains, and future hot tub plumbing.0:42 The team also installed jackpole fencing around the property to exclude cattle from the building site.2:29 While the concrete work and plumbing were contracted out, the family performed the remaining construction tasks themselves.2:12
