Timber Frame Construction

I found some free ebooks today from the American Wood Council that will help you with any timber frame construction project you are working on. They include information about topics ranging from spans to timber frame connections to proper materials choices. They are totally free, compliments of the AWC. Enjoy your timber frame construction project.

  • Plank-and-Beam Framing for Residential Buildings ebook
  • Heavy Timber Construction ebook
  • Design of Wood Frame Structures for Permanence ebook
Whether you are building a house, barn, or bridge each of these will help you with your timber frame construction project - especially the "Heavy Timber Construction" ebook.

You can buy treated or untreated timbers from American Pole and Timber.
