BUILT IT GREEN Advanced Framing Techniques:
Advanced framing, sometimes called Optimum Value Engineering (OVE), refers to a variety of techniques designed to reduce the amount of lumber used and waste generated in the construction of a wood-framed building. These techniques also improve a building’s energy efficiency. Advanced framing techniques create a structurally sound building with lower material and labor costs than a conventionally framed building. Additional construction cost savings result from reduced waste disposal, which also helps the environment. |

The book includes step-by-step instructions on developing stereotomic double curvature drawings for circular work in carpentry. Some of the techniques presented in this book are thousands of years in the making. As carpenters, we shouldn't have to re-invent the wheel each time we are faced with new challenges. There is a likely hood that someone, that came before us, has already refined a technique that we can use today. The tools might have changed, but the piece of wood that it is twisting and turning remains the same piece of wood.
