Stunning Church with Heavy Timber Construction

The Christ Episcopal Church in Springfield, MO. Vermont Timber Works hand crafted the heavy timber trusses for the chapel area. Notice the steel tie rod, needed for strength. Although these douglas fir arched trusses are very pretty, they are also structural. (As we put it, they are holding up the world).

The Vermont Timber Works CREW traveled to Missouri, assembled and set these breathtaking trusses in place. Let us pray.

Now that is a quite a span. Any guesses out there? Email your guess to us, we'll post the guesses and the winner.

The 1st Day of Autumn @ Vermont Timber Works

Cooler nights, chilly mornings and warmer afternoons...Autumn has arrived. Vermont Timber Works is located in the heart of New England, North Springfield, Vermont. Custom design and hand crafted timber is what you'll find here. If you are coming this way, be sure to stop at our Southern Vermont Welcome Center where you will see a stunning hand hewn pine timber frame. Below is the view that Denise and I get on our way into work. Not bad, huh?

VTW Welcomes September and New Heavy Timber Projects.

Vermont Timber Works welcomes September and a busy fall schedule. As we wrap up the heavy timber projects in the shop (Rich Barn, Ayers Trusses), many are on their way (Blackwood Barn, Blackwood Residence, Hacker Valley, White Mountain Admin, Neely Residence) and some are in the engineering and shop drawing phase (Westbrook Middle School, Cox Natatorium, Notre Dame Academy).

Leaves are begining to change, but searching for new heavy timber construction projects has not. Travis and I (and perhaps a 3rd) are finding much to bid on. Currently Rick's desk is full of timber frame projects that need estimates. Welcome Centers, Park Pavilions, Commercial Timber Buildings and Residential Projects. If the project mentions heavy timber, we are all over it!
