The wooden clad čardak was typically framed with lumber studs and infilled with a combination of cobble stones and plaster. The studs were interconnected with diagonal lumber pieces to reinforce the studs and served to support the infill material. The čardak elements were either covered with wooden board and battens (as in this case) or with a layer of thin wooden strips and a plaster coating.
