This week on All About Home Construction, we're digging into the bones of a building—its framing. We discuss how builders determine the right size lumber to use, how span tables are used to safely size joists and beams, and why understanding load calculations is critical for any construction project. We also break down the difference between live loads
Join us as we explore the importance of proper framing, why span tables matter, common mistakes builders make, and how building codes help ensure safe and durable structures.
