Description

Framing serves as a versatile design tool tailored for timber frame and floor construction, addressing the evolving demands of the contemporary offsite construction sector. It is widely adopted by timber frame producers, structural engineers, and design firms, facilitating the creation of detailed 3D models for timber frame structures, which in turn generates thorough material schedules and manufacturing drawings suitable for both manual assembly and direct integration with industry-standard automated machinery and saws. The software excels in detailing a variety of timber frame building styles, and although it primarily operates within a 2D context, it efficiently constructs a 3D model based on user specifications, enabling straightforward verification of levels and heights throughout the process. This capability enhances accuracy and streamlines workflow, making Framing an essential resource in modern construction practices.
