Default 30 ft yurt from scratch

Hello all!

First time yurt builder here to document my progress on a 30' yurt. While working on a shrimp farm in Hawaii this winter I had the opportunity to build the platforms for two yurts (a 16' and a 12') as well as take part in the raising of both yurts (shout out to

yurts of Hawaii

as both yurts used to be display models at their facility). This experience prompted me to design and build my own 30'er to use as a primary dwelling. Needless to say after spending time in the yurts I fell in love with the space and the idea and had to have one for myself. I am currently working full time and am buying materials as I save the money and working on it on the weekends.

I plan to use this thread to show my progress and provide a place for feedback from those more experienced than me as well as provide information to those other DIYers out there. This forum has been very helpful in the research phase but sadly no detailed complete 30' yurt builds.

As of this writing I have the platform mostly done and have turned my attention to the Khana lattice. I will post details about each aspect below and include pictures.

For now I am very excited to be making progress and am interested in hearing my fellow yurtforum members feedback.
