House Framing leads homeowners through the steps of building a structure using platform framing, the most popular style of framing in use today. Beginning with background information, the book provides the reader with everything he needs to know about building, including structural loads and how they interact, sizing lumber, working with tools, and reading blueprints. The book then takes the reader through the framing process; from installing mudsills on the foundation through floor framing, wall framing, roof framing, sheathing, and more. The book ends with three project chapters, one on building stairs, another on finishing a basement with steel studs, and the last on framing a bay window.
