Basic timber framing with 90 x 35 F5 pine studs, top and bottom plates and noggings.
The floor framing on the mezzanine floor consisted of 250 x 50 F7 floor joists at 450 maximum centres with 25 mm thick sturctural flooring.
The timber joists of the mezzanine floor are fixed to the steel beam by vertical steel member called cleats with bolts.
The end floor bearer is supportied by a steel angle which is dynabolted to the concrete panel.
The timber stair for the first floor office area is a prefabricated unit that is delievered to site as pictured above. The company that manufacturers these stair units in Stair Lock.

Hey Adrian,
thought i make a comment on your blog ...
very interesting pictures of timber framing, but in an eye brow raising kind of way. Its just weird to see timber studs inside the building where the wall is made out of concrete, it is definitely possible, but is it a usual method of domestic construction ?
Normally timber goes with brick or weather board, and concrete goes with steel. Correct me if im wrong.
Also, those stairs, what supports them ? i cant see how the stairs will be sturdy without anything supporting it underneath ...
Cheers ...
