Timber frame structures with improved joint assemblies
Timber frame structures comprising timber support posts and timber support beams. Improved joint assemblies are utilized for interconnecting the timber support posts and the timber support beams. In particular, each of the joint assemblies includes a tail having a wedge-shaped outer face and a complementary socket configured and dimensioned for receiving the tail. The tails may extend from the terminal faces of the support beams and the sockets may be formed in the sidewalls of the timber support posts. The tails may be installed into the sockets through a drop-in-place procedure. The timber frame structures may be packaged as kits for modular assembly at the desired location.
