What are the best screws for framing and why are they recommended over other types of fasteners for this specific application?
The best screws for framing are typically structural screws, such as timber screws or deck screws. These screws are recommended over other types of fasteners for framing because they have high shear strength and are designed to withstand the heavy loads and stresses that framing structures endure. Additionally, structural screws are less likely to loosen over time compared to nails or traditional screws, providing a more secure and durable connection for framing applications.
Why rubber tires are preferred to steel?
Rubber tires are preferred to steel tires because if we had steel tires driving over the smallest pebble would be a very bumpy ride. Rubber tires are flexible and will be smooth when going over rocks. Not to mention, if we had steel tires the government would have to replace the roads everyday with the amount of people tearing them up with steel tires. Also, rubber tires wear out and that means you will have to buy new ones again..

How is a solid different from a frame?
In a frame the structure is not continuous throughout the panels of the building, but is in connected lines of structure that form a frame. For example in timber framed buildings: the timber is a structural frame that does not completely fill in the walls, roof and floor. These are clad over and lined within the framing to form panels. The framing bears the structural loads. In concrete or brick masonry construction: the walls are formed by the masonry units being put together to form solid walls. This means the loads of the building are distributed throughout the entire wall.
