This 30' x 42' timber frame provides a durable and versatile foundation for a wide range of building applications. While it is commonly shown as a woodshop, the structure itself is designed to be flexible and can be finished as a garage, barn, workshop, or other custom building depending on your layout and intended use. The complete plan set includes everything needed to get started, including a sample foundation plan, sample first floor plan, and architectural elevations with door and window schedules. Additional details include a cross section, along with a full timber, fastener, and connector list. All wall, beam, and rafter layouts are included, along with fastening details and individual beam drawings to support an efficient and organized build process. The frame utilizes 10x10 posts, 8x12 and 10x12 plate beams, 6x10 purlins, 6x8 knee braces, 8x14 ridge boards, and 10x12 rafters, forming a strong and reliable structural system suited for a variety of uses. Whether you are starting with plans or moving forward with a CNC cut timber frame package, this design offers a flexible starting point to bring your project to life.
