Very Efficient Carpenter: Basic Framing for Residential Construction/FPBP by Larry Haun
Here's your chance to become a more efficient carpenter. Larry Haun has been a production framer for more than 35 years and a teacher of apprentices for more than 20. In this book, Haun shows you, step by step, all the techniques he uses to frame a basic house, from laying down the sills to cutting the rafters. You'll learn about: cutting and installing posts and girders joisting and sheathing fluently laying out, cutting, assembling, and raising walls framing gable roofs, hips and valleys, and truss roofs building various types of stairs There is an opening chapter on tools, plans, codes, permits, lumber, and materials, and additional information throughout the book on safety and site-built tools. The Very Efficient Carpenter is no less than a complete course in basic framing.Larry Haun began his construction career on the Nebraska prairie, where he assisted in the construction of his first home when he was 17 years old. He started framing in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 1950, and in 1951, he joined his older brother in a building boom in Los Angeles that saw rapid changes in equipment, materials, and construction procedures. Haun thereafter began teaching two nights a week at a community college, where he stayed for 20 years, seeing a need for passing on production-framing practices. He retired to Coos Bay, Oregon, where he worked for Habitat for Humanity, built wheelchair ramps for the needy, and backpacked across the High Sierras, Rockies, and Andes. He is the author of Habitat for Humanity: How to Build a House, Carpentry Fundamentals, The Very Efficient Carpenter, and three companion movies on how to frame a house. Larry also maintained a blog, A Carpenter's View: http://www.finehomebuilding.com/blog/a-carpenters-view, which he updated until his death in October 2011 at the age of 80.
