Rough Framing

Despite the weather, we found ourselves ahead of schedule.  The rough framing was able to get started just before the blizzard of 2011 set in.  DoneAll Construction, LLC of Prairie du Sac were selected as the framers for this project.  Kevin and Tim have done a great job, and have been a pleasure to work with.  Despite losing a day and a half for the blizzard, and having them attend two days of classes at the Wisconsin Builders Conference, it looks like as they finish up, we will have gained a few more days.  This was a big framing job, and it was fun to watch a two man crew who worked so well together.  They worked more efficiently and faster than many four man crews I have had in the past. 

The house was framed using 2x6 studs with 1” Dow Styrofoam.   The floor system was a Trusjoist Engineered system, LP OSB was used for bracing points, underlayment and roof sheathing.  The walls were covered with Tyvek.  All of the materials and trusses were furnished and manufactured by Brunsell Lumber.
