Description
22×36 Scissor Truss Timber Frame Pavilion Plan
Bring traditional timber-frame craftsmanship to your property with this 22′ × 36′ open-air pavilion plan. Distinctive scissor trusses create a vaulted ceiling, while exposed timber framing and prowled gable extensions give the structure a strong architectural presence. The open layout makes this pavilion a versatile addition to residential or rural properties.
Scissor Truss Timber Frame Design
The defining feature is the scissor truss roof, which creates an attractive vaulted ceiling and showcases the beauty of exposed structural timbers. Carefully proportioned beams, diagonal braces, and traditional king-post detailing add depth and character to the frame.
Dimensions and Versatile Use
The pavilion measures 22′ × 36′ at the posts, with 2′ roof overhangs and extended prowled gable ends. These proportions provide generous covered space for outdoor entertaining, a garden pavilion, a gathering area, or other general-purpose uses. Its open design also allows you to adapt the space to your needs.
Tongue-and-Groove Roof Decking
Tongue-and-groove roof decking creates a finished wood ceiling beneath your choice of roofing material. Choose metal roofing or another suitable finish roof to complement your property and project requirements.
Masonry Post Bases
Masonry bases anchor the pavilion visually while elevating the timber posts above the supporting surface. A standoff connection separates each timber post from the masonry, helping limit direct contact with moisture and reducing the risk of decay at the post feet. The solid masonry supports also complement the warmth of the exposed timber, reinforcing the pavilion’s traditional architectural character.

Planning vs. Construction
Project Planning Package
The Project Planning Package is designed for the early stages of a project, when you are evaluating the design, developing costs, coordinating the project, and deciding how you want to proceed.
It is useful for:

- Working with builders, contractors, architects, or engineers
- Coordinating the design with your site

Project Construction Package
The Project Construction Package is designed for customers who are ready to move from planning to fabrication and construction.
It provides detailed timber-frame documentation needed to fabricate and assemble the frame, including construction drawings, timber member information, joinery details, and shop drawing information.
It is useful for:
- Fabricating the timber frame
- Preparing timbers for layout and cutting
- Understanding individual members and their connections
- Planning frame assembly
- Providing detailed information to builders and timber framers
In Simple Terms
Planning = Understand, price, coordinate, and prepare.

Important Info
Every state, county or municipality will have its own building and code requirements as environments differ from one region to the next. It is possible that your plan may need to be modified to comply with these local requirements and conditions. This is particularly true in coastal areas and those facing seismic events, extreme winds, and heavy snow.
If you are building in any of these areas and depending on the size and purpose of the structure, it is likely that a licensed structural engineer will be needed to provide the necessary calculations and stamp.
All pre-drawn plans from Joint and Peg do not carry a stamp from a licensed architect or a licensed engineer. Please understand that we will not be held responsible for the performance and suitability of this design plan as we don’t know the criteria with where you plan to build, nor the material to be used, nor any additional structure to be implemented in the construction.
If this is a requirement from your local building department, or it proves to be the prudent thing to do, Joint and Peg can provide you state sealed engineered drawings for an additional fee. When it comes to the time to build, we highly recommend that you enlist our engineering service. Otherwise, the onus of this structure’s performance is solely with others, not Joint and Peg.
Single Use Terms
We authorize the use of our plans for one single project; conditioned on your obligation and agreement to comply with all local building codes, ordinances, regulations, and requirements, including permits and inspections at the time of and during construction. Multiplied use of our plans is prohibited. Thank you.
