Timber Frame Plans

Here is a full explanation of Joint and Peg’s timber frame plans. We take pride in providing the most accurate and knowledgeable plans at a reasonable price. Our timber frame plans are geared for Carpenters and Builders but if you are handy and have good mechanical woodworking skills these are for you too. Like any good set of construction plans, there should be the right amount of clear and accurate information to allow for proper work to occur.

Not all plans are created equal! A good set of plans should be the work of a good designer who has a good understanding of the materials they are using and how those parts go together on site. Joint and Peg’s design crew has steel toed boots in the closet. We know the materials as we work them!

  • Plans are produced by experienced timber framers.
  • Raising sequences are always considered during design.
  • Ideal and economic use of timber while maintaining the heavy timber look.
  • Plans from the DIY skill level all the way to Master Carpenter.

Base Frame Standard Architectural Views
Here we get into the basic core set of our timber frame plans. You will have your typical architectural plan views, elevations, section views, and a foundation detail. We provide standard height datums and reference proper planes for good building sense and dimensions.

Commonly we will provide running measurements as we understand that is more accurate and efficient than picking your measuring tape up and putting it down again.

Material Lists
No other company supplies extensive lists like we do. These lists include all the timber, concrete, and Sq/footage take off for floor, roof, and wall areas. Organized lists are extracted directly from our modeling. They are precisely accurate and thorough providing a good measure to price, budget, and keep inventory of materials.

Joint Details
These optional sheets will include joinery connection details. You can find these joint details, or connection details, within your plan set or in our Timber Connections Library. Clearly see how the joint goes together by referencing our 2d views and an axonometric view of the timber connection.
