Introduction

We are going to break down the framing into 3 framing modules that will be assembled on the ground in parallel with other construction processes.

This is the how-to for the first modules of the 1st floor. Starting from the south, they are labeled 1-10 with an "a" and "b" distinction referencing their location on either west or east respectively.

Step 1 Module 3a+b

Gather Material for Mod. 3a+b
4:2x4x6'
4:2x4x8'
2 Sheets 1/2"x4'x8' Plywood (1 sheet for Mod.3a, 1 for Mod.3b)
2 Sheets 3/4"x4'x8' OSB (1 sheet for Mod.3a, 1 for Mod.3b)
~30: 3-1/8" Construction Screw
~64: 1-5/8" coated deck screw

Step 2

Use two people to make the proper cuts at the dimensions in the graphic at a 17 degree angle

Simultaneously, use the other two people in your group to assemble the framing pieces using two 3-1/8" construction screws per connection, screwing perpendicular to the bottom plate and top diagonal pieces.
