“The Graphic Guide to Frame Construction” is an incredibly useful resource for anyone designing or building a wood frame building. Pretty much everything you need to know is explained and diagrammed in a very simple straight forward manner. I purchased this book to learn about about frame construction before I started my first architecture job. Than at the last firm I worked at they used this book to teach the interns about typical light wood-frame construction methods. I recommend this book to anyone interested in building even if you aren’t doing the construction yourself.
