The Bridge.
We built this back in February and March. It’s a 60 ft long Douglas Fir timber framed bridge. It’s definitely one of the more challenging projects we’ve took on, everything from the giant hill we had to bring everything down, the terrain we had to set up on, the complex design of the bridge, the expensive material we couldn’t cut wrong, the important structural details, the endless amount of lap joints, the list goes on.
All the timber is Douglas Fir, the siding is vertical grain cedar, and the decking is IPE Brazilian hardwood.
We’ll be returning to this residence to build a timber framed pavilion in August, so plenty more challenges to come.
