Why do Americans build houses out of wood?

Honestly, to us Europeans this fits well together with the core character flaws of the average American.

>Buying overpriced crap, that doesn't even last 10 generations
>"Investing" in a house, which collapses when wolfs blow at it
>No insulation, paying 50% of your income to the oil jew

Some people ask why American vacancies are not used to house homeless. This is your answer. American houses are only good for 2 years.

we have a lot of wood laying around, so the cost of rebuilding a house is cheaper than making it out of brick or stone. House insurance makes it a good investment, and most homes DO have insulation, not sure where you heard that.

Because it's cheaper and easier to work with.

Wood houses last hundreds of years as long as you maintain them, which is still cheaper than a stone home. And, easier to fix when something does go wrong.

>no insulation
Jew laws require tons of insulation, what are you on about?

>american houses are only good for 2 years
that simply isn't true, with proper maintenance and quality construction a house can last for centuries.

>10 generations
I'm pretty sure none of the modern European houses will stand after 300+ years.

im pretty sure that is an Austrian flag but who cares.

You are wrong about a lot of things. American houses are insulated. Also, we'd build houses out of proper materials if we could but ZOG wants to be able to burn us alive WACO style so only (((government))) buildings are allowed to be built as durable structures. It's in the building code. Now you know.

Oh i don't know. Maybe because if done right it can last over a 1000 years?

Another thing is that now American houses are built with 2nd growth wood which has a higher sugar content than did the old growth, so the new houses are more susceptible to fungus and rot.

So we can brag about how big our houses are even though they are just made out of extremely cheap wood
Even the apartment I live in is made of wood I shit you not

Soaking in a borax solution could fix so much.

Europe
>Cut down all of their forests in the 17th-19th centuries making wood expensive; population until the late 20th century was very static and tended not to move; weather milder and less prone to massive wind damage
North America
>Wood plentiful and cheap, stone difficult and more expensive; population very mobile and prone to rapid movement; extreme weather makes stone/brick homes *more* dangerous in large areas
One moment of thought

>You are wrong about a lot of things. American houses are insulated.

It's in the building code. Now you know.
buildings code prevent you from using brick?

Yes. We can face a wall with brick but cannot build with it the right way. Then our homes would be SWAT proof, every man's home would be his castle.

Everybody itt needs to read this:
jimstonefreelance.com/crappywood.html

>Quite a while ago, I wanted to have a home built. And I went to a homebuilder in Utah and talked to them to get a quote. And they quoted out the basement separately. When I saw the total on the basement, which included digging out the ground for it, laying the slab and pouring the walls for 4,500 square feet (top floor and basement), the basement portion including all piping and everything else underneath it was only $5,500.00 and the top portion of the house was $90,000. I asked him why the top cost so much compared to the basement, and he said because it has to be built out of wood, and wood takes a lot of labor - the concrete was easy. I then asked him if he could just build the entire house out of concrete, what it would cost, and he said $30,000 total, including all wiring, windows, EVERYTHING. And I asked him if he could do it, and he said NO. I asked why, and the answer shocked me -

>He said "Because if you build it out of concrete, it's considered by the government to be a military bunker, and if you get a wacko in there who wants to defy the government he can put up a hell of a fight with a few guns. I could build it, but the state would quickly arrive with bulldozers and tear it down."

>I then said, well, what about the homes that are built with brick?

>He said, "that is only a facade, it has to be entirely supported by the wood wall behind it, and it has to fall inward if the wood portion of the home behind it burns and cannot remain standing after any fire, at least if it is up to code"

Log cabins can be in great condition after centuries.

>dam sun

no fucking way... You serious? wow. Sad!

>Cut down all of their forests in the 17th-19th centuries
>17th-19th centuries
>all
Funny how Burger history works

As a home builder I can confirm it is true. We live in flammable crackerjack boxes so ZOG can holocaust us at any sign of resistance.

why are you trying to imply that only americans build homes out of wood? scandinavians and japanese both do as well

also why do you think we don't have insulation?

hmm... but what if you say that the bricks are all weapons? Then it should be legal right? Or just build your house out of guns.

This is what people tell me coming back from the US. No insulation, insane heating bills, huge gaps between door and floor, so more heat can escape. But it doesn't matter as most Americans move 2-3 times a year chasing some job opportunity.

100% bullshit story lol people will believe anything

notice how he never cites the law banning concrete homes

Did somebody circumcise your hate boner or something?

I LITERALLY crack open the windows open for most of winter so I can enjoy comfy fresh air and comfy heat.

I know you are attempting humor and are failing miserably at it.

Sorry, we don't do circumcision in non America.

Show me a concrete home. They are all made of wood even though concrete is faster, cheaper and better. Have fun burning alive in your basement when ZOG drone strikes you.

Why not? It doesn't cost that much.

>last
.....
What a dumb fucking logical fallacy you piece of shit redditor get the fuck off my board
Stupid motherfucking shill I'll gut every last one of you

Wood jointing is not used in modern construction, fuckface

Pic related kike.
How do I know?
>It doesn't cost that much.
Oy vey!

they're too expensive
guy in link was lying about how cheap the basement was

Insurance covers it. It's basically free health care.

You're lying shill. Add up the man hours plus material cost. Concrete is way cheaper because it's fast, doesn't take a crew of carpenters working for months on end.

It traumatizes and according to your 'religion' it marks the goy as slave of the Jew.

Please let's not be anti-semitic ITT

We killed all the wolves with our guns so we don't need to worry about having them blown down

Anything not needing an engineer for design is basically wooden. It cheap, plentiful, and easy to work with. This is the same mostly everywhere unless youre some sad eastern slav commie who uses concrete for everything

Euroshits dont own houses unless their families built them by hand 500 years ago, find a house in austria cheaper than 200000 euros, pro tip, you cant

You're a Jew and this is Sup Forums. So now...why are you so obsessed with white cocks? It's not like they don't come in brown or black. Pic related.

if there is a crew of carpenters a house will be framed within a couple weeks

when you see houses being built for "months on end" either there is a financing problem, time tables not matching up between electrician, framers, and plumbers, or it's just 1 guy and his sons building it

why would i "shill" this? i don't care either way but you're just wrong and lying about it for some reason. i've seen earth homes that look like hobbit's homes where every side but one is covered in earth - why are those not illegal then? they are framed with concrete.

cite the law banning concrete homes please

Eurocucks will believe anything. Guess that's why they're willingly being overrun with sand niggers.

Europeans are not phased by prices. We don't care if its cheap. We are not enslaved to "a great deal". Its child abuse, not much different to African genital mutilation.

What massive logging operations do you have on your shit island?

Wow you hate black people? I thought that was illegal in Europe. Why are you importing them if you hate them so much?

Kike's wrote our zoning
zoning determines how houses are built limits materials etc
>what did you think

>buy this 1000000 euro home so you can be a debt slave for life
lol no

eat this garbage goyim it is 8.232 percent cheaper and has twice the food coloring yum yum yum

>live in this McMansion so everyone can point at it and laugh for life

dude, everyone hates back people.

Back to germany hans, no one wants you here

>tfw you'll never live in a Lustron house

Seems comfy af to be perfectly honest with y'all.

Then why are there so many of them?

>most homes do have insulation
Dude it's a fucking requirement if you live in a city.
Building codes require insulation.
Unless you live in a cabin out in the woods you are 100% guaranteed to have insulation.

>erection manual
Multi-story split-level homes with basements and a centrally-located chimney serving multiple fireplaces are the comfiest of all m8

Framing happens quickly. I know because I'm a professional. it's all the finish work that takes time. Now tell my Mr. Jew, have you ever built a house? Can you show me a concrete house? Didn't think so. They are all wood.

>Be American
>Buy House for 10.000$
>County decides your house is now worth 5 Billion $ and you owe 50% of that in taxes
>Be homeless

sorry forgot whose land this was

>euroshits asshurt that they are too POOR to afford overpriced eurocuck "homes"

My moms house was built in 1849 w out of wood and is pretty sturdy. The foundation is stone and the basement has hand hewn beams. Nice harwood floors and yellow pine walls. It is not insulated. Very old houses to my understanding were not.

>Wood jointing is not used in modern construction

Noob.

I love black people!

That's old growth wood and it'll last for centuries unlike the el cheapo Hemfir we use now.

>no anesthetic was used
i asked a doctor about this at the hospital where i work. he was pretty horrified by the question. he said, "of course we use anesthetic, it's a surgical operation! where did you hear that?"
i didn't tell him where i heard it, but i learned not to believe any of the bullshit in Sup Forums's "info"graphics

>sell house for 5 billion
>pay taxes
>be billionaire

meanwhile in habsburgfagistan aka germany if it was even more pathetic, this house would cost over a million euros

Yes, yes! Black people! It is black people month! They was kangz n shiet!

We love our black people, yes! More black people make everything better!

Lmao! Europeans wanting to be relevant. Always bashing Americans then crying for help when their socialism fails. Lmao!

Pfft erection lolll

you mad austrofag im glad I WUZ austrian N SHEEIT so i don't have to live in your cucked cucktry, stay mad mehmet

Yeah ok bud, my daughter is a nurse and has seen it first hand. It's horrible and you aren't even human if you think it's all ok. Subhuman kike.

Nah, they just pop some infant ibuprofen afterward or whatever, as if that's totally normal after invasive surgery. If you read in to it, the Juden compare it to the feeling of "tearing off a bandage."

Wood is useful:
Build a cross and nail a nigger on it
Burn Niggers with it
Trees to hang niggers
Baseballbats to smash Nigger skulls
Throw a burning log into a nigger kindergarten
Build caves for nigger slave housing
Traps against niggers
Build a bucket out of wood and fill it with nigger heads
Make ropes for, you know
Paper to write down how much Niggers you killed today
Build a basket to fill it with nigger guts or babys
Tree resin for resourceful clans man
You can get water out of trees to boil niggers

See?

We all know that Jews hate us and abuse us any way they can because they're monsters and not human, they just look like people because crypsis.

what kind of nurse is your daughter?

This thread is about building houses. You are not allowed here.

Doctors, lawyers, and engineers

Wow the edge

>expecting a niBBa who has lived his entire life in a Soviet-era prefab apartment building to know this

My house is 90% concrete and brick. The only parts made of wood are the beam in the roof (and doors and windows)

Fucking wood parts that stick out of my roof are bending thanks to seasonal effects / humidity heat etc. Pushing out the bricks, and the concrete in between the bricks. mfw when wasps enter my roof thanks to fucking wood moving around.

The fucking wood parts have to be repainted every 5 years or so. tremendous cost since its high up, you can't reach it with a fucking ladder.

some birds started knocking holes into the wood parts.

I can't tell you how much I fucking hate wood when it comes to external building.

its just a fucking bug magnet and a money sink.

my next house will be 100% concrete

Nice b8 where did you read the The Onion? Even in nigger communities there are people there who've owned houses for generations

I live in a house that was built in the 70s, we've got insulation, a fireplace, and central heating. The insulation is double what's necessary by code standards 'cause I live in the mountains. The only problem my house has is the goddamn woodpeckers pecking holes in the siding.

>live in so cal
>every once in a while there are 5, 6, 7 mag earthquakes
>wood shifts, rolls with the quake
>walk through the neighborhood after quake; all the wooden houses still standing;
>brick buildings crumble into heaps

split-level homes are the best for Christmas because that way you can easily smell the tree throughout the house ^_^

The kind that works in a hospital. What kind of nigger is your wife's son?

This*

no one cares about your third world communist """"""""""engineering""""""""""""

They are? I live in Florida and I see nothing but concrete.

"give us your forskin goy! dont worry, your insurance will cover the cost."

That's because you need hurricane bunkers there.

By building homes that require constant upkeep and repairs, we secure a labor market for home renovators.
You're right, they're shit, but they're meant to be shit, so we can keep our people busy.

The truth is, we only need an economy so our money still has value, we could all build quality homes that would last ten generations but then there wouldn't be enough work for everyone. Eventually the value of our money would drop and get dominated by countries like China just because the Chinese let their people use hatchets to chip away at roads, paying them full wages with full time hours to do meaningless shit. It's insane but it's keeps our currencies alive, it keeps at least some money in the hands of everyone, true labor is rare to find.
Most of everything that we do is totally meaningless, except to prove that our people are doing "something", that way we can tell other countries where people live on humble acres and do perma-culture farming and all that, and say our money is more valuable than their money because we clock more hours of "labor" than they do.
Cars are complicated and difficult to work on now, this secures the mechanic's labor market.
Houses are complicated and require constant upkeep, which secures the home renovator's labor market.
We take organic drugs and medicine that works without side effects, and outlaw it, so the pharmaceutical labor market can participate in economic generation with lab testing and synthesizing artificial versions of what we already had in organic form, just so they can have something to do.
The vast majority of labor is fucking meaningless in a direct sense, we jump through hoops to make sure we can open labor markets anywhere we can just so we can have an excuse to employ millions of people and dispense small amounts of money to them.
It's a stupid fucking economic trap that we're probably never going to escape because the first country to try always fucking collapses.

>Honestly, to us Europeans this fits well together with the core character flaws of the average American.

Wrong. Wood is a very common material to use here.

>Only 45% of doctors who do circumcisions use any anesthesia at all
so i guess the doctor i talked to is in the 45%
>In 1997, doctors in Canada did a study to see what type of anesthesia was most effective in relieving the pain of circumcision. As with any study, they needed a control group that received no anesthesia. The doctors quickly realized that the babies who were not anesthetized were in so much pain that it would be unethical to continue with the study
what the actual fuck?

And now strap some plywood over it.
>why hurricanes wipe out entire towns

Might be true in that state, but in the rest of the US poured concrete slab homes are perfectly legal. The only issue is getting a good concrete contractor, who'll mix it right. You can also use cinderblock, which is cast concrete. The issue with cinderblock is it's 3x as expensive as 2x4 construction. Plus, cinderblock has to be built right in areas with a high water table, as seepage is a real issue.
Considering most home construction is vinyl siding over cheap lumber and plywood, I'd rather spend more for cinderblock and steel for the frame, and decorate it with the same shit a wood house would get. Even here in earthquake country, cinderblock does very well, whereas brick does not. The only weak spot would be the roof, if it's framed in timber.

...

“all” is hyperbole but yes the UK and most of Western Europe has lost 80% of tree coverage that existed before the Industrial Revolution
