Post and Beam Construction.
The homes, some I have had the pleasure of touring, invite the outside in, are very distinctive in style and detail, and feature an “architectural emphasis on post and beam construction.” So, not unlike me, are you wondering just what in the heck does “post and beam construction” mean?
“Heavy timber, or post and beam, construction uses heavier members set further apart. Cutting these members requires larger trees. Since each member handles a large portion of the building load, this method requires more precise engineering and placement. …
Post and beam construction allows large expanses of glass, since the weight of the structure is supported on posts that are fairly far apart. Coupled with high vaulted ceilings, this creates large, airy, well lit living spaces. That in itself would be enough to give a home or public building an appearance of grandeur. Since most people that choose this type of construction have a love for finely crafted wood, they leave the posts and beams exposed, giving the building an added warmth and beauty. ” Read more about post and beam construction here.
