 b) Combination Frame. A modification of the old braced frame which was of heavy timbers
with every joint mortised and tenoned. The modification consists of lighter timbers and less
mortising and pinning to save material and labor.

Girts are framed into the corner posts at the second story level joists as well as to brace
the whole frame. The girts which support the floor joist are called drop girts; those parallel
to the joists are called raised or flush girts. The studs run from sill to girt and from girt to
roof plate. Diagonal braces run from sill to corner posts and from the corner posts to the
roof plate. This type of construction is more rigid than the balloon frame.

2.2.1 TYPES OF WOOD JOINTS

1. Plain Joint (Lap Joint). The plain joint is used in very hasty construction for temporary
framing and is made by lapping one piece over the other and nailing then together. It is not a
very strong joint.

 5. Mortise and Tenon Joint. This type of joint is used for building wooden
framework where great strength and rigidity are all important. It is made by
cutting a hole or mortise in one piece and a tenon or tongue in the second piece
to fit the hole in the other. The tenon may extend fully through the other piece or
only part of the way.

 2.2.2 SPLICES

The function of a splice is to connect two or more pieces of timber in

such a way that the joint will be as strong as a single timber of
equivalent size. Splices are of three types: for compression, tension
and bending.

Wood Frame & Light RC

A. Splices for Compression

Types of Wood Framing 1. Scabbed or Fished Splice. Two pieces of timber are squared at their

 2. Halved Splice. The halved splice is better for direct compression, and
when combined with scabs or fishplates, may be used where there is
some tension. This splice is made by cutting half the thickness of each
piece to the required length and putting the halved sections together.

 C. Splices for Bending

1. Scarfed Splice. When a piece of timber is subjected to bending as in

a horizontal piece supporting a weight, the upper part is subjected to
compression while the lower half is under tension. A splice for bending
should, therefore, combine the features of the tension and compression
splice. The upper part should be cut square to offer the maximum

resistance to compression while the lower half is beveled on the end,

 2.3 TIMBER CONNECTORS
Timber connectors are metal devices used to provide
added strength at bolted joints. They eliminate
complicated framing of joints, simplify the design of
heavy construction, and save much time and labor.
Among the various types of timber connectors are:

occur between a concrete slab and
