Advanced Framing helps maximize the use of materials while reducing costs. For example:

·		Use 2x6 at 24-inch framing, instead of 16-inch, and space floor joists at 19.2 inches or 24 inches.
·		Use single-lumber top plates and two-stud corner framing. Use doubled 2x4s, 2x6s and 2x8s over smaller door and window openings, instead of doubled 2x10s.
·		Design with 2-foot modules. Most panel products are even-incremented such as 4x8.
