Structural timber 1

(0 reviews)

Following the completion of the foundations, we now moved onto putting the kit up.

 

After putting together a list for our timber merchants we are now ready to start. The materials for framing and sheathing arrived last week.P1150127.thumb.JPG.d24750e7934eddfc096825411b4ab786.JPG

 

The house will be stick built by a team of two joiners, with prefabricated trusses arriving on site in a few weeks.

 

Today marked the first day of joinery. The first job was attaching the wall plate followed by cutting the suspended timber floor.

And on day two, joists finished. Next job will be ground floor framing.

Came as 4.8 meter lengths, C16 45mm x 145mm.

 

Its quite high at the back at the moment, but I have quite a lot of 'rotten rock' at the front so this will be used to build up the levels at some point.
