From the sweetest timber frame chapel to most extravagant timber frame monastery, Vermont Timber Works is the timber framer of choice. VTW can custom design, engineer, handcraft and raise your timber frame project.
Let's take a look at the Veteran's Cemetery Chapel shown above and below. This lovely timber frame chapel overlooks Randolph, VT. It features an open air design with sliding walls that close it for winter use. Pretty timber frame, don't you think?
The Bethlehem Monastery of Poor Clares, located in Barhamsville, VA is a bit more complex in timber frame design.
The 2-1/2 story frame reaches just shy of 45 feet at the very top of the cupola. Now THAT is a timber frame cupola!
This timber frame features traditional joinery, a small amount of steel, and over 31,000 board feet of douglas fir heavy timber.
