Framing in Phoenix means working against whatever the last hundred years left standing.

What is different about Phoenix
The city holds every construction era Arizona has had. A 1920s bungalow near the centre has real dimensional lumber, balloon-framed walls and a plaster substrate that does not behave like drywall. A house finished last year north of the 101 has engineered trusses and a load path that runs through particular walls and nowhere else. Which of those we are standing in gets established before anything is cut.
A large share of the mid-century stock is block, and a block house has no stud wall to nail an addition to. The connection is anchored into masonry and the new framing is furred out to meet the existing plane, which is a different detail and a different inspection from timber to timber. Inside a historic overlay the roofline and the street elevation are part of the permit, so the framing is planned around what has to stay.
