This looks pretty good to me. What do you think?
Other than the than the fact that the 2001 building code required that gable end bracing too be designed by the engineer of record.Generally that would include bottom cord support which was not included with your photographs
I see no serious problem if this house is in Florida, vertical studs and cribbing ending at the underside of the roof sheathing without plates would be a concern to me as to roof loading. Several terminations of structural post & ridge beam (which I am sure was not the intent) should not be without gussets. The inconsistency of the dimensional lumber sizes is also a question mark. (home made) But then some photos don’t do a problem or lack of one, justice.

This isn’t how I used to do this in the MSFH program, but looks like it will sustain a good blow. I can see vertical reinforcement, deck blocking, cross bracing, and a small shear wall (haven’t seen that before). The only thing that is not noted in the pictures is ceiling diaghram blocking and continious bottom chord bracing.
That was the point of the post. Over kill if I have ever seen it.
1999 home so it was before the 2001 code
