The frames are typically prefabricated, which allows for a quicker onsite assembly compared to traditional masonry techniques. This prefabrication is facilitated by advances in technology combined with traditional craftsmanship. Oak is a renewable resource that, when sourced responsibly, has a minimal environmental footprint.
