Talk:Light-frame construction

"bridging" error
bridging used midspan in a floor system should be described as a method of preventing lateral buckling--not vibration or sag as stated in this wiki. unsigned comment by User:24.19.41.6, 20 September 2006
 * I believe you're right, I seem to recall reading some discussions of this. But we should provide references to some studies as this is a common misconception. Luigizanasi 00:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Merger

 * Support. I can't see any way stick framing != light frame construction, it is just a more specific material.

Merge
I have moved Light frame construction, Balloon framing, Wall framing, and Platform framing to Framing (construction). The idea being that this, together could constitute a GA or FA eventually. Obviously some major cleanup needs to take place as well as referencing. And, indeed, if some of the sections prove to be long enough through expansion, they could again be broken off into their own separate articles per WP:SUMMARY. Hopefully this doesn't step on any toes. IvoShandor 10:53, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

bias of article
Lightframe is used in non-Western countries as well. Japanese houses are stick framed, in a particularly interesting way as I understand it. I don't know the details, but I can find out. Erk|Talk -- I like traffic lights -- 06:36, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It is not biased because Strick framed is the same as Platform Framing. Removing Template. If you do find out, revert my changes. --Parker007 20:44, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
