Self builder interested in outbuildings and pitched roofs. South wales

[TimberFrame]

Hi Guys,

I've visited this forum many times when researching different things and it's always been great to get insight from other people and see how they've done a particular thing. Never posted but am finally a member. 

I'm mostly interested in timber framed, well insulated and air tight structures, and usually with a pitched roof as a preference. I've done some building work at my parent's renovation project which included taking out a wall, constructing some brick pillars (not done my me) for the steel beam, building a new cavity wall (preparation and concrete done by me, brick laying by bricklayer). Also lots timber work to add bracing to a section of lean-to tiled roof which was added years ago (previous people) to enclose the drive way, but the roof rafters did't have rafter ties to stop them spreading. No spread but the bracing was needed. Hope to learn a lot more. I will post and ask/participate more soon.

Thanks
