The 20' x 16' King Post Frame is based on one of the most enduring and widely used timber framing systems in traditional construction. The central king post serves as the primary structural anchor, efficiently distributing loads while allowing for a wide, open interior without unnecessary complexity. This results in a design that is both structurally efficient and visually striking, with a clear focal point at the center of the frame. The proportions of this frame make it highly versatile, suitable for a range of applications from residential outdoor structures to functional workspaces. Its straightforward geometry allows for efficient fabrication and assembly while still delivering the character and warmth expected from a true timber frame. The exposed structure emphasizes craftsmanship and creates a strong architectural presence in any setting. As with all Team Timber frames, this package can be provided as a CNC cut timber frame kit with engineered stamped plans available. Additional wood species and custom sizing options are also available to suit a wide variety of project needs.
