Historical Timber Framing

Historical timber framing is a traditional building technique where wooden beams are carefully constructed and joined to create the structural framework of a building. These beams, often large and precisely fitted, form the skeleton of homes, barns, and other structures, showcasing craftsmanship and regional styles. Using methods like joinery and pegged joints without nails, this technique emphasizes durability and craftsmanship. Timber framing has been used for centuries across many cultures and periods, leaving behind notable historic buildings that demonstrate both aesthetic beauty and engineering ingenuity.
