A framing system in which the framing is of full dimensional, rough-cut lumber. The lumber has been cut to rough size but has not been dressed or surfaced.
Rough cut lumber is true to size. A 2” x 4” stud is actually 2” x 4”, as opposed to modern standard framing lumber, where a 2” x 4” stud is 1 ½” x 3 ½”.
Superstructure framing is typically found in larger high value homes (not smaller homes, such as those under 6,500 SF) used for heavy duty loads, older homes, and larger spans. It is possible for a smaller home to have additional superstructure framing, so thorough inspection should be done to accurately account for all framing.
Included in Cost: Rough lumber framing and decking/sheathing.
