Even on vacation in Central Oregon, I can’t stay away from a high-performance framing job! Today, we are prowling around an active custom home construction site by Solaire Homebuilders out of Bend, Oregon. Founded in 1995, Solaire is Central Oregon's original sustainable homebuilder, known for crafting high-efficiency, legacy green homes that prioritize energy efficiency, structural resilience, and healthy indoor air quality.

In this video, we break down some advanced framing details and building science techniques that make this custom build stand out. We’ll look closely at their high-efficiency double wall framing system (using 2x4 exterior walls set 24 inches on-center with a 1-inch thermal break gap), which maximizes the insulation cavity for blown-in fiberglass (BIBS) without sacrificing structural integrity or racking strength.

We also dive into the engineering of their scissor trusses, the structural benefits of vertical OSB sheathing layouts with proper panel edge blocking for shear walls, and how a professional framing crew handles a complex 45-degree dog-leg garage truss layout. Plus, we talk about true carpentry craftsmanship, spotting lumber wane, and why a clean job site is a productive job site.
