#042 - There are many considerations around safety when it comes to tiny house construction and tiny house trailers.
Fred Schultz is a thought leader, innovator, advocate, and teacher in Australia's Tiny House movement. He designed, built, and lived in his own off-grid (fossil-fuel free) tiny house with his family and in doing so, innovated the Unified Construction Method® to make tiny houses lightweight, safe to tow, and comfortable to live in year-round.
Fred educates DIY builders and professionals alike on how to build safe tiny house vehicles through his online course and face-to-face workshops. He also makes highly engineered tiny house trailers that are perfect for building a tiny house on, featuring the strongest attachment method available between the tiny house and the trailer.
If he’s not supporting trailer clients in his tiny house office, he’ll be on the tools or working in the garden at his home in Castlemaine.
In this episode, we talk about:
- The shifts Fred has observed in the tiny house space over the years and where he thinks we’re headed
- The importance of constructing a long-lasting, safe & thermally well-performing tiny house on wheels / tiny house vehicle
- Why building to the Building Code of Australia or the National Construction Code doesn’t necessarily make a safe tiny house vehicle
- Some consequences of building over the weight limit of a trailer (4.5T)
- All about the Unified Construction Method®, Fred’s Tiny Trailers & Tiny House University….and more!
