https://stream.echo6.co/videos/watch/a07472b5-9913-46ed-9d90-3802fd0ab0ed In this video, I need your help. We're planning a new high-performance house using Zip-R6 sheathing, I-joist rafters, and some unconventional roof-to-wall connection details. Our longtime engineer just retired, and we’re working with someone new—so it’s the perfect time to rethink everything. Should we keep doing things the way we always have? Or is there a smarter way to frame rake walls, overhangs, and airtight connections? I walk you through our SketchUp details and some of the tradeoffs we’re considering—like skipping bird blocks, hanger-mounted rafters, and full thermal wrapping with Zip-R. What would you change? What do you think works or doesn’t? I want your real-world feedback so we can refine these details before we start. 🔧 Featuring Zip-R6, Simpson Strong-Tie SDWC/SDWS, LSSR hangers, PWT I-joists, and airtight framing strategies. 📸 Follow the build @pioneerbuildersinc on Instagram #framingdetails #zipr6 #airtightconstruction #roofdetails #highperformancebuilding #ijoiests #buildbettertogether #roofconnections #constructiondesign #awesomeframers #framingdetails #highperformancebuilding #zipr6 #ijoiestframing #buildbettertogether #airtightconstruction #structuralframing #simplesolutions #monopolyframing 0:00 Intro 2:40 Building Science Details 6:00 Overhang Details 16:59 Your Help Needed Some of the links below are affiliate links.

Commercial work includes social media like YouTube if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course https://sso.teachable.com/secure/245841/checkout/1320802/bundle-remote-pilot-plus-maneuvers?affcode=245841_0eauthdo&coupon_code=FRAMERS100 I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach.
