What options are there for enclosing the timber frame?
We offer our TimberWallT System. This consists of a perimeter wall panel enclosure system and a full built-up roof including interior ceiling decking. The roof is very important. In Alberta, a ventilation layer and vapor barrier in a roof are critical. There are two choices for perimeter wall insulation panels, either ‘wrap-around’ (the timber frame is only visible from the interior of the home) or ‘infill’ (panels go between posts so the timber frame is visible from the exterior, and interior of the home). Costs are roughly the same. The timber frame can also be enclosed using conventional 2×6 stud framing and batt insulation.
