New to Forum - Looking for advice on Timber Frame Construction for backyard Studio

[comdotski]

Hi all

My name is Tim and I am new to the forum today.

I'm joining to get some advice on a project to build a standalone studio in my backyard - from the foundations up!

I'm planning on using timber for most of the project - apart from stumps and the roof.

Could someone please provide a guide as to the best sub-forum(s) to post to or browse for this?

Regards

Tim

The best way to get a full overview is pop down to Bunnies and hit the books section - specifically the Alan Staines books on building. A pretty decent overview, well illustrated, and pretty up to date.

And the Renovate Forums are the ones for building advice.

Welcome aboard,

90 x 35 mgp 10 is most common, depending on your cladding either 600 centres or 450 centres.
