Discover the Strength, Economy, and Durability of Building with Poles Building with poles can save you time, money, and effort. Creating strong, durable structures this way requires only limited grading and essentially no excavation on site, allows for plenty of design flexibility, and utilizes fewer materials than other building techniques. In his classic do-it-yourself guide Practical Pole Building Construction, author and builder Leigh Seddon covers everything you need to know about all stages of the process from initial designing and planning to the actual construction and building stage. With an emphasis on practicality and economy, this essential reference manual includes helpful, easy-to-follow yet detailed information about how to choose between kiln-dried vs. green poles; architectural and structural specifications; site selection; construction-site preparation; design principles; aesthetics; pole setting; sustainability considerations; and ways to insulate and ventilate. It also features original design plans for multiple building and outbuilding types, including lean-to barn, horse stable, hillside house, garage/woodshed, mountain pole cabin, and coastal/lake house. In addition to the many photographs within, illustrator David Sylvester provides plentiful architectural drawings to accompany the clear, informative text. Engineer and veteran builder Leigh Seddon is also the author of Low-Cost Green Lumber Construction (also available from Echo Point Books)' another time-honored reference book for resourceful, do-it-yourself builders looking to save costs and work sustainably.

For centuries, post-and-beam construction has proved to be one of the most durable building techniques. It is being enthusiastically revived today not only for its sturdiness but because it can be easily insulated, it is attractive, and it offers the builder the unique satisfaction of working with timbers. Building the Timber Frame House is the most comprehensive manual available on the technique. In it you will find a short history, of timber framing and a fully illustrated discussion of the different kinds of joinery, assembly of timbers, and raising of the frame. There are also detailed sections on present-day design and materials, house plans, site development, foundation laying, insulation, tools, and methods.

What this book is aboutAs the title says, this book is for a “Do-It-Yourself†person.In this book, I try to give a complete explanation of every step necessary to plan, or buy, and build from the ground up to the ridge cap, a Post Frame building of any size.This book is written for a person with some level of existing knowledge of construction methods. But not more than a average home handyman level.The book goes into details of design and material choices,More than step by step methods. This is because, there are many options and many possible choices that one could make. A step by step would only be useful to a few, and many people would not benefit. However, by explaining the design concepts and reasons for choices, you can make better decisions and better choices.This books would be very useful to a person wanting to buy a package building kit, or buy from a post frame building company and have a builder assemble. Because, as a buyer and owner, you should understand what you are choosing and what you are paying for and what you get in the end, for your money.Either way, This book will save you money and result in you having a better building.
