timber framingConstruction of frame or post-and-beam structures using large, heavy, wood members, specifically lumber 5 in. (13 cm) or more in the least dimension. The term implies stylistic features of a heavy nature. Half-timber work, in which the spaces between the heavy visible frames of interior and exterior walls are filled in with (nonstructural) material such as brick, plaster, or mud, was common in Asia and Europe. Half-timbering found its highest expression in the Tudor style. See also framed structure, post-and-beam system. |

Seniors examine various methods for preserving buildings, like post and beam construction or preservation masonry. A $70-million project to build a laminated post and beam manufacturing facility in the Red Lake District with a related planing, component manufacturing plant and head office in Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation is gaining momentum. The post and beam roof structure needed a few extra nails and knee braces, but the inspectors let the mud go since it was within 'shed size,' which does not need a permit. |
