Pergolas A pergola is a backyard structure made with posts, beams, and supporting cross beams which hold up rafters and top shade planks creating a lattice-type roof. They provide shade for back yards, decks, pools, and more. They can be free-standing or attached to a home or building. The primary purpose of a Pergola is to create an outdoor space. We help you create an inviting and comfortable outdoor room, which you can decorate and furnish. Having a pergola allows you to extend your home outdoors, creating inviting spot where you and your family will enjoy spending time. We help you design and create a beautiful multi-purpose Pergola for all your family events, social gatherings, romantic evenings, and general purpose entertaining. Don’t let limited indoor space crash your party, invite more people and have more fun with your friends outside. All pergola kits are designed to provide the perfect amount of shade and protection from the sun. Now you can enjoy fresh air, a calm breeze, and little gentle sunshine. It is time to relax under a beautiful Timber Pergola, love your backyard, and see the beauty of the world around you. Note: With shade-planks that are spaced closer together, Western Timber Frame™ ShadeScape™ Pergolas provide 80% Shade Coverage; which is approximate the same shade coverage you would get with a tree. SCAPE TM ® What are Pavilions and Gazebos? Pavilions and Gazebos are places where an observer can take advantage of a view from under its protecting cover. Often, the term pavilion and gazebo are interchangeable. Usually it is the shape or design that determines whether someone chooses to call it a pavilion or a gazebo. These outdoor living rooms often feature the same conveniences as indoor living. For outdoor kitchenettes, they can be as simple as a fire-pit, or wholly equipped with barbecues, ovens, fireplaces, full commercial kitchens, complete with lights, fans, counters, refrigerators, and outdoor televisions. Pavilion A structure made of posts and beams supporting a pitched roof that is completely covered with roofing materials to provide complete shade and protection. Pavilions are free-standing and provide an umbrella-like shelter for protection from inclement weather. Gazebo A Gazebo is a pavilion built for the express purpose of taking in the surrounding view. Gazebo means: "a place from which to gaze." Gazebos are traditionally hexagonal in shape. SCAPE TM ® What is an Arbor or Trellis? Arbor and Trellis structures are an excellent way to accent your backyard living space. In our experience, people use them in conjunction with a pergola, gazebo, or pavilion to accent a walkway, hidden corner, or provide shade for a swing or bench. Arbors are a great way compliment backyard and garden entrances, or function as a beautiful accent to a small patio area. Western Timber Frame™ garden arbors and trellises add an inviting feel to a garden and make it easy to accentuate with hanging baskets, pots or growing boxes. They help create an attractive living space throughout the year. Arbor A structure which serves as an entrance (typically with an arched roof) or provides a shady resting place (usually with a flat roof) in a garden or park on which plants such as climbing shrubs or vines can grow. An arbor may have lattices, benches or swings attached. Arbors are a great way to provide a small amount of shade to a dedicated area or walkway. “Arbor” literally means a tree, orchard, or shade covering. Trellises An architectural structure made with posts and beams in single file, supporting a row of rafters on top, used to support climbing plants. May have lattices attached to them. Outdoor Living Retreats An arbor swing can also be an enchanting invitation to a garden or landscape as well as a welcome resting place at the end of a pathway or quiet secluded retreat.

Decks A flat surface capable Timber Frame Buildings of supporting the weight, similar to a floor, but typically “Framework,” or half-timbering, which constructed outdoors, is the method of creating structures often elevated from by using heavy timbers jointed via the ground, and pegged mortise and tenon joints. usually connected to a building. Timber Entryways A roofed area with a truss in the front for exposure while providing a passage for entrance into a home or building. They are attached to the front of your home. Timber Awnings Custom Furniture A roof-like that extends We can make timber furniture. over a doorway, from Tables, chests, benches and so the top of a window or much more! over a deck. Awnings are an excellent way to embellish your home and match your pergola or pavilion kit. Playgrounds Playgrounds built with solid wood timbers using the patent pending design The Dovetail Difference™ connection system making it an heirloom piece to be enjoyed for generations. SCAPE TM ® The Dovetail Difference™ The Dovetail Difference™ The Dovetail Difference™ is an unprecedented masterpiece of architectural engineering. A simple, yet strong design provides greater stability and heavier load capacities. It allows the wood to perform as nature intended, expanding and contracting while keeping the joints tight and secure throughout the years. Helps to Eliminate Gaps and Exposure The Dovetail Difference™ has a trapezoidal angle shaped dovetail (mortise) that interlocks with another angled (tenon) creating a snug fit. This snug fit allows for the natural seasonal expansion and contraction of timber pergola joints. Tight fitting joints in which little movement is allowed between the mortise and tenon can shoulder greater loads than loose, bolt or peg joints. The dovetail mortise and tenon gives the FROM THIS timber the ability to expand and contract while remaining tight, minimizing gap exposure, reducing twisting and warping. The patent pending The Dovetail Difference™ also eliminates virtually all exposed hardware, bolts, screws, hangers or other mechanical fasteners unless they are decorative in Eliminate Exposed nature. Hardware Mortise and tenon joints have soundly stood stronger through centuries of architectural constructions because it allows for the wood to naturally expand and contract while maintaining its integral shape without nail/glue construction. Buildings are considered to be solid, immobile structures, yet we live in an environment of TO THIS! continual motion where the weather moves structures in waves up and down as well as side- to-side. Seasoned timbers of this scale with The Dovetail Difference™ naturally move and adjust to this

  • The Moisture-Excluding Effectiveness of Finishes on Wood Surfaces
    United States Department of Agriculture The Moisture- Forest Service Forest Excluding Products Laboratory Research Paper Effectiveness FPL 462 of Finishes on Wood Surfaces William C. Feist James K. Little Jill M. Wennesheimer Abstract Permeability to water vapor is one of the more important properties affecting the performance of coatings and other wood finishes. Often, one of the main purposes of finishing wood is to restrict moisture movement from the surroundings. We evaluated the moisture-excluding effectiveness (MEE) of 91 finishes on ponderosa pine sapwood, using the Forest Products Laboratory method in which finished and unfinished wood specimens in equilibrium with 30 percent relative humidity (RH) at 80 °F are weighed before and after exposure to 90 percent RH at 80 °F. Finishes with the best MEE were pigmented, nonaqueous (solvent-borne) finishes. Two-component epoxy paint systems had MEE values greater than 85 percent after 14 days when three coats were put on the wood. Molten paraffin wax and a sheathing grade, two-component epoxy material with no solvent were the very best finishes found in this study for controlling moisture vapor movement into wood. The MEE is a direct function of the number of coats of finish applied to the wood (film thickness) and the length of time of exposure to a particular humidity. Only 11 finishes were found to retard moisture vapor movement into wood with any degree of success over the relatively short time of 14 days, and then only when two or three coats were applied. These studies include evaluations of MEE by finish type, number of coats, substrate type, sample size, and time of exposure, and describe the effect on MEE of repeated adsorption/desorption cycles.

  • Understanding Wood Bonds–Going Beyond What Meets the Eye: a Critical Review
    Understanding Wood Bonds–Going Beyond What Meets the Eye: A Critical Review Christopher G. Hunt1*, Charles R. Frihart1, Manfred Dunky2 and Anti Rohumaa3 1Forest Products Laboratory, Madison, Wisconsin, USA 2Kronospan GmbH Lampertswalde, Lampertswalde, Germany 3FibreLaboratory, South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences (XAMK), Savonlinna, Finland Abstract: Understanding why wood bonds fail is an excellent route toward understanding how to make them better. Certifying a bonded product usually requires achieving a specifc load, percent wood failure, and an ability to withstand some form of moisture exposure without excessive delamination. While these tests protect the public from catastrophic failures, they are not very helpful in understanding why bonds fail. Understanding failure often requires going beyond what meets the naked eye, conducting additional tests, probing the wood surface, the fracture surface, adhesive properties, and the interaction of wood and adhesive during bond formation and service. This review of wood bond analysis methods reviews fundamentals of wood bonding and highlights recent developments in the analyses and understanding of wood bonds. It concludes with a series of challenges facing the wood bonding community.

  • Building Advisory Notes(PDF, 218KB)
    Design and siting requirements for buildings and structures assessed by the City of Gold Coast as a Referral Agency Purpose This document sets out the minimum provisions acceptable to the City of Gold Coast (the City), in line with City Plan and other legislative documents for building setbacks and site cover relating to a single detached Class 1a(i) building, Class 1(a)(ii) building made up of no more than 2 attached dwellings or a detached Class 10 building or structure such as a garage, carport or shed. However, the City may consider variations to these requirements considering the particular location and individual site constraints. Site cover and building setbacks Site cover The City Plan defines ‘site cover’ as the portion of a site covered by buildings and structures attached to the buildings (e.g. carports) calculated which is to the outer most projections of the buildings and expressed as a percentage (%). The term does not include any structure or part of a structure included in a landscaped open space area such as a gazebo or shade structure, a basement car park located wholly below ground level, or eaves and sun shading devices. The maximum site cover in a residential context is 50%, however, this may vary for development in different locations such as rural or semi-rural land. Building setbacks Building setbacks may vary subject to the zoning requirements of the City Plan but are measured from the outermost projection (fascia) of any proposed building or structure. The following table details setback requirements for the main residential zones.

  • Higher Barn Farm
    Higher Barn Farm The Farm is 19.41 Acres and 7.8 hectares set on a north facing field with magnificent views towards the Quantock Hills, Exmoor and the Welsh Brecon Beacon. The soil is silty clay loam, with almost 5% organic matter and a high level of Microbial activity. It is made up of two fields. The small farm has been farmed industrially for cereal crops via contractors for some years. The farm is just inside the Exmoor National Park area. Cerys, Amer, Bob and Anne are living there as an extended multi generational family with the two children Olive and Oak, and two further brothers and their families that might join in the project. The overall aim of the farm is to create a place where the whole family can live sustainably, where the children can be raised to learn about food and crafts. Whilst the aim is not to be 100% self sufficient the family would like to primarily provide for themselves and then sell surplus, and added value food like bread, and run courses to generate an income. This report and drawing is to suggest how the farm can be developed and managed to create a sustainable and abundant home, and livelihood for the family and for many other creatures. The Functions of the Farm have been identified as; To produce food To produce craft materials To produce fuel crops To be a learning centre for Ecology and regenerative agriculture and “Field to Fork courses” To generate income To provide a safe space for the family To support biodiversity To sequester carbon and be resilient in the face of climate change For play and recreation of the whole family THE SOIL The soil is a silty clay loam, with almost 5% organic matter.

    DIY Pergola Guide Planning your Project Easy Step by Step Guide Simple Illustrations Maintainence The specifications contained within this brochure are for guideline purposes only. For further information contact a registered consulting engineer and or your local shire council. By following a straight forward programme you can build an attractive and long lasting pergola with the minimum of effort and using only a few basic wood-working tools. Tanalised® timber is the ideal material for all garden structures. Strong yet light and easy to handle it is pressure treated with either Tanalith® or Vacsol® wood preservative to give it life time durability. Planning your Project General Hints: When you have planned your pergola it is advisable to consult your local council to ensure the structure conforms to local government regulations. Refer to local government regulations for requirements regarding pergola’s. It is strongly recommended that a competent professional builder be engaged to construct pergola’s. It is also important to make sure that the pergola does not interfere with existing drainage, plumbing or electricity services. Where footings are in proximity to council sewer and or stormwater it may be necessary to complete a build over or near a sewer or stormwater application.
