Advanced Framing vs Traditional Framing

Video

Video describing traditional 2x4 16 inch on center framing versus advanced framing with 2x6 stud walls at 24 inch on center, insulated corners and headers, wall stud-ceiling joist alignment, etc. providing a strong wall with more room for insulation.

This IR camera image of an exterior wall shows fairly even, warm color indicating that the wall insulation is providing a consistent adequate layer of insulation across the wall.
