24×36 Hammer Beam Truss Timber Frame

Historic Craftsmanship. Modern Elegance. Ready-to-Raise™.

Inspired by the soaring spaces of English Gothic architecture, the 24x36 Hammer Beam Pavilion combines medieval design heritage with practical, modern engineering. This pavilion doesn’t just provide shelter—it creates a stunning architectural statement for your property.

Design Highlights:

  • Footprint: Designed to fit a 24'x36' foundation
    • Actual Frame Dimensions: 22’-11 ¾” x 34’-11 ¾” (to outside of posts, to accommodate 6" wall framing and furring strips)
  • Ceiling Drama:
    • Upper plates at 11’-4 ¾”
    • Rafters soaring to 22’-10 ⅝”
  • Roof Pitch: 12:12 for striking vertical volume and a classic Gothic silhouette
  • Joinery Details:
    • Four hammer beam trusses create rhythm and visual interest
    • Chamfered through tenons add handcrafted detail
  • Board Footage: 5,730.3 board feet of premium timber

The hammer beam design achieves wide roof spans without requiring large timbers or central posts—leaving the interior space open and unobstructed. This makes the pavilion ideal for outdoor entertaining, weddings, dining spaces, or a dramatic garden retreat.

Versatile Uses:

  • Pavilion for events or entertaining
  • Outdoor dining or lounge area
  • Wedding or ceremony structure
  • Open-air great room or garden centerpiece
  • Future enclosure for guest quarters or creative studio

  1. Hi Bryce,

    Which one of the two hammer beam frames would be easier to convert to 24 x 20 with a 10 12 pitch roof, the 24×24 or the 16×24 ?

    Thanks Kevin Fanjoy

  2. Can you get these plans with roof pitch reduced to 9/12 slope? What is the longest members and the size of those members?

  3. That would be a custom design -Check out our page, HERE, describing what we offer and the process of our custom design services. The longest timber is 16′-3 1/4″ and they are 6×8

  4. Looking for a cut list on this, rough +-10% .
    To estimate my material cost and wood sizes before I purchase the plan to build.

    thanks,
    Mitch
