Event Description:
Join instructor Mike Guertin as he discusses; 
Advanced Framing: Less material, less labor result in a superior performing wall system.  
Advanced wall framing practices and details were developed by NAHB and HUD in the early 70's to reduce material and labor costs without reducing wall strength.

Now Advanced Framing techniques embrace floor, wall and roof framing practices, and are promoted to improve energy efficiency.
Learn how the overall principles of Advanced Framing boil down to simple field-applied details that are easy to incorporate and code compliant.
