It's always a race to get a house to a "dried in" state with framing completed, windows and doors set, and felt on the roof as quickly as possible in order to protect the framing and crawl space from the weather. In the interim, there's not really a good way to keep the crawl space dry; we use a large volume fan. If you're going to frame the home solo, your crawl space might become a fungal growth laboratory experiment before you get it dried in.

One day on my way to my daughter's house I noticed a large event tent next to a nice home; I thought "wedding". A month later I drive past the site and the tent was still there. A month later I drive past the site and the tent was gone and there was a house under construction with the second floor rough framing almost complete. It may be too late for this project, but something to think about.

@Mark Bischak, Architect

Are you sure that wasn't the circus in town?

Alright. I will get tarps tomorrow and cover it when rain is expected. Can roll them up when it's dry out. I have a fan blowing into the crawl space and exiting on the opposite end for humidity removal. I will have a framing crew come and get it dried in. I wanted to do it myself for OCD reasons, but I was ignorantly under the impression that it could stand several months of weather before it became an issue. Live and learn. Thank you for your advice.

@Jacob Crawford,

Don't feel bad. My staff architect thought he could frame his own home, too. It dragged on. He ended up needing to replace some rotten floor joists when he went to sell it a few years later. Don't worry, there will be plenty of work to do once the home is dried in.

I will get in touch with a friend's referred framing crew tomorrow. Thanks again for your words. I reckon I should order my trusses...
