 Buy Show Video
The blitz build continues, and the roof framing begins. Bob meets with Lise LaFrance of the Engineered Wood Association, APA, to talk about the different engineered lumber products, including i-joists, being used on the house. We'll tour the Willamette plant in Oregon where the i-joists are made and return to Yonkers where Steve Thompson leads the volunteers in raising the giant ridge beam. Ryley and Bob take us through the framing process and report on the progress of the house so far.
