joisting and sheathing fluently
laying out, cutting, assembling, and raising walls
framing gable roofs, hips and valleys, and truss roofs
building various types of stairs
There is an opening chapter on tools, plans, codes, permits, lumber, and materials, and additional information throughout the book on safety and site-built tools. The Very Efficient Carpenter is no less than a complete course in basic framing.
