| Widely regarded as the 'bible' for timber frame, this book provides the information needed to design and construct successful timber frame buildings. The book concentrates on detailing 'conventional' timber frame wall design i.e. with insulation between the studs and sheathing on the outer face of the panels, although other wall designs are considered. Chapters largely follow the construction sequence for platform frame buildings, covering foundations, floors, walls, roofs and services installation. Over 300 detail drawings illustrate the techniques used. |
