MADE in Vermont with Pride, VTW Timber Frames.

Did you know that Vermont Timber Works hand crafts each timber frame project in their North Springfield, Vermont shop? Well, if you didn't know this...now you do. At Vermont Timber Works each timber frame home is custom designed, engineered to suit and cut by hand in VERMONT. Now, made in Vermont doesn't mean STAY in Vermont...as many of our timber frames are shipped elsewhere. For example, you'll find this timber frame barn in Shiner, Texas.

This douglas fir timber frame pavilion shown below is in Barrington, IL. The Citizen's Park Playground Project consisted of a group of timber framed gazebos, shelters, pavilions, an amphitheater, a warming shelter and gathering room for a great public park. All structures feature douglas fir timber framing, love the arched beams!

Springfield, Missouri is where you'll find this timber framed church project. Rebuilt after a fire, Vermont Timber Works is very proud to be the chosen timber frame company.

Calling All Architects & Design Professionals...

Did you know that Vermont Timber Works prides itself in working with architects and design professionals to create beautiful timber frame projects? Well, we absolutely do.

We even have a section on our web page dedicated just for them. Please browse through the "For Architects" pages to find specifications, sample shop drawings, information about wood species and finishes, choices for interior timber trusses, post and beam designs, and more.

High resolution timber frame project photos are available to download and/or viewing. Enjoy!

Call Vermont Timber Works, email US, or stop in to visit us, we would love to hear from you.

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.
