Great info on how this system works. I have a lot of framers in my area, southeast US, that are stuck on stick framing. As a wall panel designer, it's hard to get them to convert to this system.
I love the process but I did see SPF number 2 which isn't(edit:"premium") structural lumber. Premium lumber is number 1, at 14:36 it looks like the gable tyvek is negatively lapped into the lower tyvek but it could be my eyes. That's just me picking though lol. Awesome video, loved it🤘.
@@simeonblair2991 interesting where I'm from number 2 is not premium structural, only number 1 is what we call actual premium structural. 2 and 3 are most commonly used but number 1 is the premium structural lumber in Canada. That's what I was saying, Im a framer and I do everything, turnkey packages, 2000sq ft homes to 8000sq ft multi million dollar homes. We designate number 1 as actual premium structural lumber, number 2 is most commonly used but usually full of imperfections so it's never considered premium lumber unless it's number 1. We frame mostly with 2 as in Newfoundland you can't even get grade 1. Canada exports a lot of our premium lumber as well. Number 1 is available here just not in all provinces. If you frame at all and use number 2 you'll know exactly what I mean , lumber dimensions are off, warps, bows, bends ,crooks, pre cuts aren't always exact, a 2x6 can measure at 51/2, 5 7/16 , 5 3/8, 5 5/8. Etc etc.
Great video that explains how our system compares too sure built homes. Glad to part of this team.

What is your best guess (or fact) which makes it hard for them?
Great Video!

Hello Bhoody: Did you have any luck finding an east coast company that does this type of work. I am interested in this process for my final home.
