Carpentry Techniques & Tools Guide

Carpentry involves cutting, shaping, and installing building materials like wood. Carpenters work with materials like wood and concrete to frame buildings. There are several types of carpentry work, including rough carpentry which focuses on building structures, trim carpentry which specializes in moldings, and cabinet carpentry which makes furniture. Carpenters use both hand tools like hammers and chisels as well as power tools like drills, saws, and sanders. Joinery is the art of joining wood pieces together through various wood joints, which are classified by how the wood pieces intersect.

CARPENTRY
Carpentry is a skilled trade and a craft in which the
primary work performed is the cutting, shaping and
installation of building materials during the construction
of buildings, ships, timber bridges, concrete formwork.

Carpenters traditionally worked with natural wood and


did rougher work such as framing, but today many other
materials are also used[1] and sometimes the finer trades
of cabinetmaking and furniture building are considered
carpentry.

SOME OF THE TYPES OF CARPENTRY WORK INCLUDE:

1. Rough carpentry.
Rough carpenters specialize in planning, building
and maintaining structures of buildings rather than home-use additions
like cabinets or shelving units.
2. Joister
Joisters construct floor joists, where they fix floor surfaces. Similar to
rough carpentry, this category of carpentry requires less detailed work in
favor of structural integrity and durability.

3. Trim Carpentry-
Trim carpenters specialize in building trims and moldings of a room.
They also are a specialized type of carpenter that may have a specific
preference in materials and uses of materials

4. Cabinet Carpentry-
Cabinet makers specialize in carpentry that focuses on building
cabinets for kitchens, laundry rooms, bathrooms and other areas of a
building. Cabinet makers can also focus on building other furniture
that involves woodworking, such as patio furniture and indoor
furniture sets.

5. Ship Carpentry-
Ship carpenters primarily focus on shipbuilding. They can
ensure that ships meet all client demands, both structurally and in
appearance. Shipbuilders may construct replicas of previously built
ships, while others focus on building modern-day ship portions for
cruise liners, freight ships or smaller boats.

6. Framer
Framers exclusively build framing for housing or other buildings.
The difference between a framer and a rough carpenter is that a framer
specializes in only framework and is often individually hired for lone
projects or on a contract.
7. Roofer
Roofers specialize in planning, building and maintaining the rafters,
trusses and beams involved in a building's roof construction. They can
ensure that roofs, inside and out, are structurally sound to maintain a
durability factor required by clients. Roofers specialize in roof related
carpentry only, unlike rough carpenters, who may work on both framing
and roofing simultaneously.
