Commercial Timber Frames

Largest Horse Barn in the US

Interior of the J-5 Equestrian Center in Wellington, FL – the largest horse barn in the United States

Medical Facility Timber Frame Porte Cochere Entry

A commercial timber framed Porte Cochere at Boone Dermatology’s new clinic in Boone, North Carolina. Porte-cochère is french and translated means ‘coach gateway’. A working definition we like is ‘a covered entrance large enough for vehicles to pass through and pick up and drop off dignitaries…’

Reclaimed beams lucchese retail store Houston TX

The Houston store is the fourth and largest in the brand’s storied history. Century old reclaimed beams and paneling form the perfect backdrop for drop-dead gorgeous boots and bags. The rough wood look and feel makes the upscale treasures even more glamorous!

timber frame medical offices

David Patrick Moses, the architect on this project, simply wows us with the sheer size of these very large (12″ x 12″) Douglas Fir posts in the waiting room of Boone Dermatology. The timbers were box heart (meaning they were cut so as to include the center of the tree) and one characteristic of box heart timber is that it tends to check (split) more as it dries than free-of-heart timber. This add character without sacrificing structure.

Commercial timber frame entry at Lees-McRae college

Pairs of timber posts add visual interests to a contemporary timber frame entry at the Student Rec complex at Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, NC.

Commercial timber frame Sugar Mountain Clubhouse

King Post trusses of rough-sawn Eastern White Pine grace the porch of the Clubhouse of Sugar Mountain Ski Resort. Designed by Pavelchak Architecture, and built by Enterline & Russell Builders of Blowing Rock, NC.

Timber Frame Commercial clubhouse

A favorite design choice of ours is the gently curved knee brace or struts. This softens the heavy lines, for a more organic look and feel. This Community Center with private pool and waterfalls, is just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, close to Linville Falls, North Carolina. Carolina Timberworks crafted and installed the Douglas Fir timber frame covered porches.

timber frame historical restoration

There’s something about Scissor Trusses that really catch the eye, right? Without a center King Post, they seem especially light. This was a historical timber restoration project we did for St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. Two of the trusses were damaged in a wind storm. We used matching species (Antique Heart Pine), and even went so far as to cut the joinery on site without power tools in Lincolnton, NC.

Timber frame clubhouse at the Headwaters at Banner Elk

A light and airy timber frame design at the clubhouse in Headwaters at Banner Elk. The light, clean grain of Douglas Fir partners with structural metal tie rods to allow spectacular mountain views.

Commercial timber frame town hall meeting room

For a multi-purpose meeting room, such as the Sugar Mountain Town Hall, timber frame construction and timber trusses create beautiful spaces for public discussion.

Timber frame post and beam bus shelter

This bus shelter is located close by our shop. The funny thing is that Appalachian State University students won’t stand under it unless it’s raining. We think it needs a bench…

timber frame office space

Our client wanted his offices to have the look and feel of a mountain lodge. Timber frame construction fit the bill, and built and ininstalled rough sawn Western Red Cedar trusses in the Treadstone Group’s corporate headquarters in Denver, NC. The inspiration for the fireplace and mantel came from the Bob Timberlake Gallery.

grandfather vineyard & winery timber frame pavilion

We enjoyed building the timber frame entertaining pavilion for Grandfather Vineyard & Winery in Banner Elk, NC. Owned by Steve & Sally Tatum, the pavilion is used for wine-tastings, private parties, weddings, and the occasional meeting of the High Country Home Builders Association (shown here).
