#179: Redundant Housewrap, Hybrid Timberframes, and an End to Vented Crawlspaces

The Fine Homebuilding editors offer their opinions on adding two layers of Typar, suggest affordable alternatives to a building a full timber-frame house, and wonder why anyone thinks it's OK to build house on top of a mold farm.

Then it's on to some constructive feedback about educational and business resources for tradespeople before tackling the typical assortment of construction questions.
