Can a wood-framed home really last 500 years? In this episode of The Build Show, Matt Risinger compares traditional framing with Monopoly Framing (Perfect Wall) to explain why one approach creates a stronger, healthier, and more durable home. From continuous air barriers and exterior insulation to conditioned attics, ZIP System sheathing, vented over-roofs, and advanced moisture management, you'll learn how small framing changes can dramatically improve building performance.
Matt breaks down real-world job sites, mockups, and his own home to demonstrate how Monopoly Framing eliminates thermal bridges, improves airtightness, protects structural framing, and keeps HVAC systems inside the conditioned envelope. Whether you're a builder, architect, remodeler, or homeowner looking to build a house that stands the test of time, this episode is packed with practical building science that can help you build better.
