Post-and-beam – Sturdy post support beams that are spaced up to 8 ft. apart and covered with 2” planks that serve to form the ceiling, and roof deck. Because the post provide some of the ceiling support, rooms can be constructed with larger spans between the supporting side walls. Post-and-beam framing is popular in contemporary architecture where exposed beam ceilings are desired.
