Budget concerns have removed the visible GluLam Beams (the contractor said that they would double the cost for the roof framing, as they have to be sanded and stained and masked off from the rest of the ceiling). So now we are using standard framing of TJI’s that will be hidden in the ceiling plane, with a continuous veneer of cedar T&G planking that will go from interior to exterior soffit. The front entry also got revised with a longer overhang- just at the front door. We are in permit, the engineer is re-working the framing plans….so need to submit the changes soon, to keep the 14 week permit time on track.
