Timber Frame Design & CAD Technology...

Our Professional Engineer PJZ has been learning Solid Works and so far he likes it. Vermont Timber Works is thinking about adding Solid Works...I'll keep you posted.

DataCAD has been our program of choice for years, we like that better than AutoCAD. With Computer Assisted Design Programs we are able to create timber framing shop drawings for client approval as well as finalize timber framing joint details for our shop crew. Something like the drawing shown below of our Spruce Camp Lodge.

Vermont Timber Works, custom designs and traditional joinery for all of your timber framing needs.

Would you like a timber frame house?

If so, you have come to the right place. From initial design ideas to the finished hand crafted timber frame house, Vermont Timber Works is ready to talk with you.

Imagine sitting in this couch and looking up into the timber beams, and that arched window (Great choice Arthur!). Natural timber frame construction creates a wonderful warmth and many designs are possible.

On a lighter note...this hand hewn native pine timber frame creates a gambrel roof design (I love it).

Vermont Timber Works, Inc...Welcomes Tommy back to our Timber Framing Team

Tommy, shown here hard at work and also trying hard to avoid the camera!

Tom is back with our timber frame team and he is a welcome asset. From the layout, to all aspects of our hand crafted fabrication process, we are happy to have him back.

Tom ran the show at our Lake Taghkanic job in Ancram, NY. Douglas Fir Timber and Glulam Arches complete this heavy timber commercial project. Vermont Timber Works and CREW raise many timber frames.

Let's talk about Timber Frame Chapels and Churches.

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.
