Building laws and regulations

[SjurHerman]

Are totally against all forms of nature. Every man on earth can make their own homes. Materials cost so little and you can get the same quality as any other home for 2 hundred thousand dollars making a home for 4 thousand dollars and that is reality. A window cost in average about 70 dollars and a door maybe a 100 dollars and the wood maybe a 1000 dollars. That is real. People on this earth can not work all day just to fufill building laws. The laws have to be removed so that. The good people of this earth can live more freely and spend time with their family and most of all friends and maybe most all find themself.

OK, who left the screen door open :D
I didn't realize you all were using dollars in Norway...

Yes let's. How many Children were squashed in substandard schools in China? Why was the American embassy in Haiti one of the few undamaged buildings? Have you ever noticed the casualty numbers in "anything goes" countries versus ours in disasters?

Beginning with the first recorded building codes roughly 1000BC we recognized that, no, not everyone can build a house and in fact people were dying because people are not even reliably capable of building a mud hut.

You can't be serious. The same value home of $200,000 for $4,000, this is reality? Put down the pipe and get some fresh air.

Dude must be building teepee's for that kind of coin.

[DIYguy]

Teepees? Have you seen the cost of rawhide lately... outrageous! We've moved to canvas, and even at that we're building teepees at $28k

[RTF]

He's putting windows in his teepees .

[maj]

$70 windows. :punk:


Canvas??? Screw that, We've started looting from jobsites and taking all the left over Tyvek. 1x2 furring strips for the frame and 6 mil plastic for the door. :smartass:
