Haleiwa, Hawaii:
"Here are over 100 pictures of 2 homes we recently designed, engineered, fabricated, and framed on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii! When finished, each of these homes will be worth approximately $1,300,000.00."
 
 
"Here is the slab for house #1."
 
 
"Here is the slab for house #2."
 
 
"The steel has arrived and is ready to be unloaded!"
 
 
"It was a tight fit to get the steel for both homes on the site."
 
 
"Unloading more steel . . ."
 
 
"It was tight . . . but we were able to make it work! All the steel is unloaded and ready to be framed."
 
 
"Here you can see both slabs . . . one is behind the other . . . and they are both square, level, and ready to be framed upon."
 
 
"The first walls are framed and stood up in place!"
 
 
"All of the exterior walls on the first home first floor are framed and up . . . now to start the walls on the second home first floor."
 
 
"The walls are going up . . ."

"Another rainbow over the job site!"
 
 
"After completing the floor decking of both homes, the material for the 2nd floor exterior wall framing and roof truss fabrication is brought up and organized."

"Since the floor decking of the second floor offers a nice flat surface, a jig of each roof truss is created on the floor decking and each roof truss for each home is fabricated in it."

"Here, one of the jigs is complete and ready to build roof trusses in it!"
 
 
"Here are a few of the roof trusses made in the jig shown above."

"Here the walls on the second floor of the other home are nearly complete and ready for trusses."
 
 
"The last of the roof trusses to be built are the girder and hip rafter trusses. In these roof designs, these trusses are carrying a large amount of the roof load so they are really heavy duty. In fact, each of these trusses weighs about 475 lbs.!"
 
 
"It seems as though our pot of gold is 'silver'!"
 
 
"The second floor exterior walls are all up on both homes and are now ready to have the roof trusses installed on them."

"The ceilings throughout each of the homes are vaulted. Here you can see what the ceilings are going to look like when finished. The horizontal cross piece near the peak of the ceiling on each truss is just a temporary support for stability while installation. It is removed later."
