Comments from our editors:
Written for those with beginning to intermediate building skills, this book is designed to walk you through the framing basics, from assembling simple partitions to cutting compound angles on dormer rafters. More than 400 full-color drawings accompany step-by-step text.

Author John D. Wagner has been involved with the construction trades for 20 years. He has written extensively for the shelter industry. In his former position as a staff editor at The Journal of Light Construction, Wagner edited and produced the book Advanced Framing, now in its second printing. House Framing is Wagner's fourth book.
