More photos of the Yocum residence located near Lopez Lake in the Arroyo Grande Valley. The general contractor, Bob Cantrell Construcion, is nearly finished with this house and therefore photos of the final product will be added soon.
The front entry is a vaulted roof utilizing 6x6 and 8x8 beams with tongue and groove (T&G) paneling. The rest of the house features beams similar to the entry in the hallways and great room. The truss seen in the foreground was hand built and fit perfectly when set in place, that's craftsmanship.
On the right is the piano room and on the left is the dinning room which also features T&G like the entry.
Chad framing the tall walls in the entry, which are close to 18 feet high.
Starting with the garage and working our way north, 90% of the walls were stick framed due to the height and weight of each wall. You can also get an idea of how we like to start framing. Usually one person cuts the headers, top cripples, bottom cripples, and sills ahead of another crew which frames the walls behind the cut man.
Apparently we all got the memo of what to wear that day.
