Heavy Timber Framing in Stowe, Vermont.

Gorgeous heavy timber construction, currently under way at Spruce Peak in Stowe, VT. Take a look!
These double chorded douglas fir trusses span 80 feet and the octagonal design is quite something. See the ring truss? Lots of steel joinery in this one! The Engelberth Crew contracted Vermont Timber Works to coordinate the design of this project as well as the fabrication and assembly of these fine trusses. Engelberth is setting the trusses and doing a great job. NICE progress shots guys, thank you!

Below is a shot of the Spruce Peak Team on one of their visits to Vermont Timber Works.
