Timber frame (TF) houses are not the same as post-and-beam (PB) houses. TF and PB houses both use heavy timbers to create open spaces, but TF houses use traditional, complex, mortise-and-tenon craftsmanship (interlocking wood joints secured with wooden pegs), whereas PB houses use simpler, and weaker, connections (metal plates, bolts, and brackets). Timber framing's all-wood connections are a hallmark of this type of building, and TF homes generally retain value better than traditional stick-frame homes due to their exceptional longevity, sustainable materials, strength against seismic activity and storm durability, unique aesthetic appeal, lower insurance rates, and lower long-term maintenance costs relative to that of stick-frame homes. TF homes are also typically much more energy efficient than SF homes because they often use (as this house does) structural insulated panels (SIPs) in the walls, which are much more effective than the insulation placed between SF home studs, which are 'leaky'. Monthly electric and gas bills for this house are much lower than the average for similar sized homes in Providence.
