Although things in Construction Specifications, such as "FRAMING, ACCORDING TO WEIGHT" in building codes is it 10", 12", 14" or 16" The framing is done the same way, you just change the distances. Like a 25x20 Deck, according to 2018 codes, it shows different size joist sizes 2x6,x 2x8 or 2x10 according to weight bearing & spacing. These diagrams don't change, just the dimensions & thats half the battle. So, with the graphic in front of you, all you need is current building codes and you can make changes to meet current codes. It helps home owners, contractors, & subs A LOT!. Plus, you see what they need to do before they do the job. When you can show a diagram or Graphic Guide to the detailed expected + CURRENT BUILDING CODES --> You'll get better bids, better quality workmanship, & no bs about "NOT KNOWING" what was included. BULL, it shows it in details, Codes & specifications.Doing MAJOR TURNKEY JOBS ARE NOT EASY, but with this it helped me a lot & our subs when doing a $1-3M Rehab on an Apartment Complex in 120 calendar days or less, jobs look betters & are done better & bidding is better, because they have all the information with them. It works & works great & is very helpful.Especially for home owners & contractors. If you do Commerical Jobs, that's a different type of books & a lot more expensive!Good Luck & God Bless America! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely for Pros by Pros type of book but very good book for references in framing. *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2013* This book is for the Pro framer or someone that has already got experience as a framer, it is really not for the beginner or weekend warrior type. I am not trying to run anyone off from buying the book, but it is a very highly advanced, detailed and well written book for much advanced frame construction. Not that it is bad, just that beware that when you get this book it is very good but for the advanced or more skilled framer. So for you guys that are doing framing for a living or have experience with framing or carpentry you will or should love this book and buy it now. I liked the book and it will go to my library of construction/self remodel type books I have and use or refer to. I have gotten a few good ideas out of this book and would recommend it to others, it is worth the money, great source or advanced and detailed framing instructions or ideas. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent text, awesome drawings *by D***D on Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2001* "Graphic Guide to Frame Construction" is an excellently illustrated spiral bound 'book' on wood frame construction. It covers all the major elements of home construction, from foundation, to floors, to walls, to roofs. It can be read as a book but is very reference-able. It does however assume some basic understanding of home construction, so it's not an absolute starter book. The text is a bit terse and requires some mulling over, but the drawings are fantastic. If you are considering building an outbuilding, adding on to your home, or perhaps even building your own home, this is one must have book, worth every single penny paid. Did I say that the illustrations are fantastic? They are. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/1311771-graphic-guide-to-frame-construction-third-edition-revised-and-updated](https://www.desertcart.co/products/1311771-graphic-guide-to-frame-construction-third-edition-revised-and-updated) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
