This historic corn crib and wagon shed had fallen into disrepair.  FHTC stabilized the structure on a new foundation, repaired the timber framing, replaced the siding and roof, enclosed the drive bay with timber framed doors, and added a shed addition to house the Client's wood drying kiln.

When We Began We Had to Stabilize the Frame From Collapse and Protect the Site from the Strong Storms that Spring	Frame Rigged and Lifted -- Foundation Piers Formed
Frame Now Sits on Concrete Piers Awaiting Timber Frame Restoration and Modification -- Final Foundation Will be Monolithic Pour	Crib Now Sits on a New Foundation and Addition Frame Has Been Raised.
New Lean-To Addition Framing Matches Historic Joinery in Original Frame	Traditional Heavy Framed Doors Enclose the Crib's Drive Bay
Lean-To Doors Match Drive Bay Doors on a Smaller Scale	We Fabricate and Install Custom Heavy-Duty Cane Bolt Latches to Provide Substantial Security
Interior Detail of Heavy Traditional Framed Doors	Corn Crib Adaptively Reused -- Ready for Centuries More Service
