Carpenter — 1st Fix Designed

Framing, structural carpentry, lock-up — the pre-plaster carpentry workflow with timber takeoff and structural sign-off built in.

The problem

1st-fix is structural — and structural mistakes don't hide.

Wall framing, roof framing, floor system, lock-up — every dimension matters and every piece of timber has to land before plaster goes on. Underestimate the timber order and you stop the job for a re-supply. Skip a structural sign-off and the plasterer covers your bracing — until the engineer's inspector turns up. Carpenter — 1st Fix gives you the takeoff, the schedule, and the sign-off trail.

How it works

Timber takeoff. Lock-up milestones. Sign-off trail.

  • Timber takeoff from drawings — wall, roof, floor — with waste factor.
  • Frame and truss supplier-pack pricing pulled live.
  • Lock-up milestone gate — no plaster booked until 1st-fix passes.
  • Engineer-sign-off log attached to the customer file.
  • Compose with 2nd-fix plugin for full carpentry coverage.
