Design, refine, and share framing plans with confidence.

Purpose-built for timber framing teams.

FramingPlans exists to remove the drag that often comes with CAD-heavy workflows. Builders, estimators, and designers need clarity fast, not a week of redraws and re-dimensioning. The app focuses on the most common framing tasks: laying out walls, dialing in window and door openings, and validating structure with a clean 3D view. That means you can go from a concept sketch to a buildable plan without juggling multiple tools.

The mission is simple: compress the distance between idea and install. Drag a wall, set a pitch, and your framing logic updates in real time. Move an opening, update lintel sizing, and export updated PDFs in a few clicks. See the detailed workflows in the 'Help' section of FramingPlans.

FramingPlans is used across Australia and the US, where timber framing is the backbone of residential and light commercial construction. Whether you are designing a new home, planning a renovation, or preparing shop drawings for prefabrication, the tool keeps dimensions consistent and lets you validate geometry without rebuilding the model. The 3D preview helps catch conflicts early; the printable output keeps crews aligned on site.

Traditional CAD can be powerful, but it is often slow for repetitive framing tasks. FramingPlans replaces hours of drafting with parameter-driven updates, so changes do not cascade into full redraws. Teams use it to speed up quoting, reduce RFIs, and communicate details clearly to builders and clients.

The founder story is grounded in the jobsite: after years of bouncing between paper sketches and heavy CAD, the goal became a focused tool that felt as fast as a pencil but accurate enough for fabrication. FramingPlans started as an internal workflow helper and evolved into a full product once other builders asked for access. It is built to stay lightweight, practical, and responsive to the realities of framing work.
