Description
Large Open-Air Structure of Timber and Iron
Our timber frame designers have provided an elegant design here for your project. This queen post truss plan has a post plan dimension of 24 feet x 42 feet. This provides enough room for 100 guests seated in individual chairs with room at the end for the wedding party. Our slab dimensions that we have chosen are larger at 26’ x 44’ creating just shy of 1200 sq/ft under the roof.
This design is one of a kind and developed by true timber frame designers and craftspeople. We have included some embellishments with carved wood pendants. An argyle-like type wood pattern out of oak that runs down each eave. This intricacy in details provides the right romantic environment and an attention to detail that creates a memorable space. This architecture is well suited for special occasions.
Queen Post Truss with Timeless Materials
Our timber frame plan provides just the right balance of timber and iron. Along with a brick or other stone paver floor we anticipate this will be just the right pavilion for your event needs. The Queen Post trusses iron tie rods provide structural strength and the circular ornament at the center is naturally symbolic of gatherings, ceremonies, and especially weddings.
Mortise and tenon joinery holds this pavilion frame together. Hardwood oak pegs secure the framing. The pegs could be left proud and provide more interesting small details for the guests to admire. Leaving the pegs long provides spots for hanging decorations, plants, or temporary lighting.
Easily Adaptable Event Space
Given the clear span of the width of this structure it really allows for ceremonial seating, banquet tables, a dance floor, or any other gathering uses you can imagine. We are familiar with designing and building public event timber pavilions and know what it takes to create a pavilion that serves many uses.
This wedding pavilion plan accommodates other gathering type events. This vaulted heavy wooden pavilion will be sure to create a lasting impression.

Designed and Built to Last
Built correctly and according to plan we expect this pavilion to last 75 to 100 years. Apply a quality oil to the posts every couple of years to protect them from UV rays.
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:
- Evaluating whether the design is right for your project
- Developing preliminary pricing and budgets
- Working with builders, contractors, architects, or engineers
- Coordinating the design with your site
- Working through permitting or approval requirements
- Deciding whether to move forward with construction
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.
Construction = Fabricate and build.

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.
