hey,
New on here, looking to build a 20x30 (dimensions might change) with timber frame with metal brackets.

I know it's not the "traditional way" of doing it, but seems a lot easier to me, and I got access to metal equipment pretty easily.
I'm thinking I will need an engineer plan to get a building permit.
Any idea where I could get this? I can probebly get blueprints drawn, but would need someone to tell me the timber size and probebly have some kind of engineered stamp on it?
I'm in eastern Canada.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
