[edit] "bridging" error

bridging used midspan in a floor system should be described as a method of preventing lateral buckling--not vibration or sag as stated in this wiki. unsigned comment by User:24.19.41.6, 20 September 2006

I believe you're right, I seem to recall reading some discussions of this. But we should provide references to some studies as this is a common misconception. Luigizanasi 00:38, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merger

  • Support. I can't see any way stick framing != light frame construction, it is just a more specific material.

[edit] bias of article

Lightframe is used in non-Western countries as well. Japanese houses are stick framed, in a particularly interesting way as I understand it. I don't know the details, but I can find out. Erk|Talk -- I like traffic lights -- 06:36, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
