Manhattan Remodel & Cape Cod Affordable Project
Framing the Back Wall of the Affordable Home VideoBob joins General Contractor Wes Lohr as they frame the back wall of the affordable home in Mashpee, Massachusetts. Lohr walks Bob through the framing process as the deck is marked for stud placement, doors, and windows. Lohr explains the labor and time savings that materials and tools like a nail gun bring to the framing job. Lohr's brother Scott lays out and nails the entire wall from the header to the jack stud, the king stud, and the top plate that will receive the second-floor deck. This traditional stick-built wall will be squared and snapped with a line for the plywood before the sheathing goes on.
