IN BALLOON FRAMING Boards called _________ are notched and nailed into the studs and corner posts at the proper height to support the second story joists.

A modification of the old braced frame which was of heavy timbers with every joint mortised and tenoned. The modification consists of lighter timbers and less mortising and pinning to save material and labor. This type of construction is more rigid than the balloon frame

The girts which support the floor joist are called ______

Where the ground and second floor level structures are supported bytheir respective platforms.

The plain joint is used in very hasty construction for temporary framing and is made by lapping one piece over the other and nailing then together. It is not a very strong joint.

This type of joint is made when the two pieces do not meet at right angles,e.g. bracings. One piece is cut at an angle to fit the other and the two pieces nailed securely together.

The butt joint is made by placing full thickness of wood directly against the second piece. The butt end should be squared and the sides against which it butts smooth so that the pieces will be perpendicular to each other. The joint is toe-nailed.

This joint is made by cutting half the thickness of the wood from each pieceat the ends to be joined so as to bring the sides flush. The purpose of this type of joint isto maintain a level surface at the joint.

This joint is made by cutting a shoulder or edge from one piece to receivethe other piece. It is used in window or door frames, or in shelf and drawer construction.

Two pieces of timber are squared at their ends and fitted together.

Scabbed or Fished Splice is type of splices for

Halved Splice is a type of splices for

Square Splice is a type of splice for

SWhen a piece of timber is subjected to bending as in a horizontal piece supporting a weight, the upper part is subjected to compression while the lower half isunder tension

Are metal devices used to provide added strength at bolted joints. They eliminate complicated framing of joints, simplify the design of heavy construction, and save much time and labor

These are made in sizes of 2-1/2, 4 and 6 in. in diameter. They are used forheavy construction.

These are toothed and corrugated. They are made in 2, 2-5/8, and 4 4 in.dia. They are used between two timber frames for comparatively light construction

One side is clawed and other smooth. They are used either singly, in timber tometal connections, or in pairs in timber to timber connections. Thefemale plate is adaptable for use when the connector must lie flushwith the timber surface.

When installed these lie flush with the timbersurface. They are used singly or in pairs. In timber to metalconnections the plate is placed with its back towards the metal.
