Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find information on conventional wood frame construction?

  • AWC's Wood Construction Data #1 Details for Conventional Wood Frame Construction, which provides proper methods of construction in wood frame buildings, with information on features which contribute to the satisfactory performance of wood structures.

    AF&PA publishes the Wood Frame Construction Manual for One- and Two-Family Dwellings to provide solutions based on engineering analysis, in accordance with recognized national codes and standards. Like conventional construction, the engineered solutions are provided in a prescriptive format. More information on the WFCM may be found on the AWC website at http://www.awc.org/Standards/wfcm.html
