12x12 Mortise-and-Tenon Joints That Make Regular Framing Look Amateur
We're back in Salt Lake City with Stephanie Daly, discussing the intricate details of a timber frame building. This project highlights traditional carpentry, showcasing the beauty of mortise and tenon joint work. It's truly inspiring to see the joinery techniques used in constructing this timber frame house, providing valuable insights into how to build a house.
In This Video:
- The perfect blend of traditional mortise-and-tenon pegged joinery and modern engineering.
- How concealed steel fasteners (mass timber hardware) maximize window views without lowering the structural beams.
- The reality of designing heavy timber elements for Seismic Design Category D2 while maintaining clean, beautiful construction.
- A sneak peek at an upcoming full log kit build coming out of Canada.
