Construction-detail Drawing Library

aeon | Posted in Green Building Techniques on

Would love to see drawings pertaining to double-stud walls or links to other resources providing these details. Any plans to create a library section dedicated to this subject?

    Ken,
    Yes. We're working on it now. We're starting with the details provided by architect Rachel Wagner; if you need the details now, check out her two recent articles in Fine Homebuilding magazine:

    Double-Stud Walls

    Windows and Doors in Double-Stud Walls

    Thanks Martin,

    Yes, I've read her articles and they are very good. Will begin framing a double-stud house in Sept. (my first), so I'm trying to gather as much info as possible.

    Hi Ken,
    They're not for a traditional "double wall" but in case you're interested, there are some details posted at my blog:

    I'm working on adding some more soon.

    Thanks Lucas,

    I took a quick look at your blog and will go back and read thoroughly when I have more time.
