The Evolution of Wood Framing: A Brief History
Wood framing has been a cornerstone of construction for centuries, evolving significantly from its earliest days. Initially, timber framing was the norm, where large wooden beams were intricately joined together. This method required a high level of craftsmanship and was both time-consuming and labor-intensive.
As technology advanced, balloon framing emerged in the 19th century, simplifying the process by using lighter, more uniform pieces of lumber. This method allowed for quicker construction times and reduced costs. Today, platform framing is the most prevalent method, providing a robust and efficient way to erect structures with wood.
