Timber framing are method of building with heavy timbers rather than lumber,. Half timbered is a lattice of panels filled with a non loadbearing material infill of brick noggin or wattle andaud ( or similar methods), the frame is often exposed on the outside of the building. Usually the German fachwerkhaus has a foundation of stone or sometimes brick up to several feet and then the timber frame work supports an irregular wodden sill. The benefits of the construction are : rapidly erected, lend itself well to prefabrication, lends well to be pre- fitting the frame, the frame can be encased, it can be tailored to suits customer, it can use recycled etc. But this also have disadvantage such us, slanting, poor prevention of cappilary movement of water, eaves that are too narrow or non- existent, too much exterior detailing that does not allow adequate rainwater run- off, noise from footsteps, wood burn etc.
So with all the list above, maybe it's not good to build that kind of home in indonesia, hehe.
Many thank you Jutta for this postcard!!!
