Singh123456777 Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 All the framwork and what not is 99% of the time wood (unless you use sheet metal stuff which is not at strong as wood) and then exterior would be brick, stucco etc. The base And foundations of the house is cement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you've seen builds, did they do the brickwork first, and then the inside. Or did they start the interior first and then wrap it up in bricks after? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspected as much. I don't think she'll use brick here though. Doesn't look like she's got the footings for it? Keep the pics coming if you don't mind. Thanks again!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea wood frames usually go up first and then people have the option of brick, stucco, stone etc for exterior. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GurjantGnostic Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 6 minutes ago, paapiman said: Who was that guy? Can you briefly state his achievements? Bhul chuk maaf The first Achaemenid King. Launched the Persian Empire. Was known to more incorporate locals, leaving them in charge, and their customs intact, but involving them in Persian commerce and war efforts. Freed the real Jews from Babylon. Which they defeated. Were known for investing in their people and infrastructure instead of personal aggrandizement. Turned the desert into an oasis. Alexander the Great wanted to be Cyrus the Great. But never could be as he did not have the class. It's not just about winning. It's about winning a certain way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GurjantGnostic Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 Sort of ironic how little you hear about the Persian Empire considering everyone tried to emulate them. Even Grants Tomb in the united states is a rip off of Cyrus' tomb. Of anything we consider having been an empire, only the Persian Empire would be our allies in Dharam Yudh. It's an almost stand alone example of good winning in Kalyug. Only thing better in known history of any scale is the birth of Sikhi. Honorable mention ancient China. All other goodness is found in the Tribes not empires in known history. Prehistoric Empires are a whole other thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
