TonyM62 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Hi, Can anyone tell me the correct term for this type of residential floor system? I always considered it a post and beam system but when googling it I find completely different systems associated with that term. I've seen it here in the Pacific NW and wonder if it's region based. Thanks, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlackore Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Any answer you get will probably be regionally influenced, but I'd call it Plank and Beam (or Plank and Girder). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-CAD Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I’m in Kitsap county. Crawlspace floor joists are mid span supported by knee walls on continuous footings, post and beams on pier pads, or clear spanned either on the sill plate or hung from it inside the stem wall.
