Hello Folks,

I recently worked on a house where the client requested timberwork in his house, but still wanted an attic. So, we built a frame with sips for walls, and used conventional trusses for a roof.

At the time, I didn't really think about using a timberframe roof system - it almost seemed blashphemous to hide a timber roof...

But, now that I think about it a little, I think it could work pretty well. Sure would make a nice space to run your mecahnicals. I believe it could be cost effective, too.

Anyone have 2 cents?
