Frame Construction 3RD Edition
Graphic Guide To Frame Construction 3RD Edition ROB THALLON
FOR PROS BY PROS
Light wood-frame construction originated in this country over 150 years ago and quickly evolved into the predominant construction system for houses and other small-scale buildings. Today, over 90% of all new buildings in North America are made using some version of this method. Remodeling projects follow the same track.
There are many reasons why this system has been the choice of professional and amateur builders alike over the years. A principal reason is its flexibility. Because the modules are small, virtually any shape or style of building can be built easily with the studs, joists, and rafters that are the primary components of wood-frame
construction. In addition, the pieces are easily handled,the material is readily available, and the skills and tools required for assembly are easily acquired.
Given the popularity of the system, it was surprising to find that, before the publication of the first edition of this book, there existed no detailed and comprehensive reference focusing on light wood framing.
