Claim:
A plurality of fabricated timbers forming a wall comprising: the plurality of fabricated timbers stacked one atop another where at least one of the plurality of fabricated timbers comprises: a first vertical member that is substantially cuboid in shape and that is of a first length of from one to thirty feet, and of a first height of from three to fifty inches, and of a first thickness of from one to four inches, a second vertical member that is substantially cuboid in shape and that is of a second length of from one to thirty feet, and of a second height of from three to fifty, and of a second thickness of from one to four inches; and a horizontal member that is substantially cuboid in shape and that is of a length of from one to thirty feet, and of a width of from three to thirty inches, and of a thickness of from one to four inches, the first vertical member disposed length-wise upon a left length-wise top edge of the horizontal member, a vertical plane of the first vertical member substantially perpendicular to a horizontal plane of the horizontal member, the second vertical member disposed length-wise upon a right length-wise top edge of the horizontal member, a vertical plane of the second vertical member substantially perpendicular to the horizontal plane of the horizontal member and substantially parallel with the vertical plane of the first vertical member, where a right outer face and a left outer face of the horizontal member that are length-wise parallel with the disposed first vertical member and the disposed second vertical member are not covered even in part by the first vertical member or by the second vertical member, where the first vertical member is disposed length-wise along the left length-wise top edge of the horizontal member resulting in a reveal of a bottom of the first vertical member of up to fifty percent of the first thickness, and where a combination of a composition of the horizontal member, a composition of the first vertical member, a composition of the second vertical member, the thickness, the first thickness, and the second thickness is configured to sustain a desired dead load plus a desired live load plus a desired environmental load.
