Early wood frame construction in the U.S. colonies involved building a structural frame of heavy timbers that were fitted together with mortise and tenon joints. The spaces between frame members were infilled with smaller wood members or masonry. This construction required a large group of workers to hand cut, fit the joints, and lift the timbers into place. The infill walls below the horizontal timbers were non-load-bearing.
