Hi Don,

A subgroup within the TFG is the TTRAG - Traditional Timber Frame Research and Advisory Group.

Check out http://tfguild.org/ttrag.html

This group undertakes building surveys and maintains an archive of their findings. It would seem therefore that this might be your logical start point to help determine what other "hard" information has already been collected re New England barn design. Will Beemer and / or Rudi Christian should be able to help you in this quest.

Will,

Does this archive really exist and if yes, how does a person gain access to same ? Is there a list of surveyed buildings that can be posted on the website ? Can reports be downloaded ? How does a person add a report to the archive ?

Regards

Ken Hume


Looking back to see the way ahead !
