I've done a fair bit of timber framing and it's mostly nailing through the sole plate. And they Remember, you will have 4 walls and a roof (preferably a trussed roof) which, once all nailed together, adds a lot of strength.
Use temporary braces to hold things vertical and upright until all the bits are in place.

Cross post from the shed thread.
I want to scratch build a timber shed, not so big, maybe 3 x 2 metres.
Specifically I am wondering about how to complete the junction in the pic. How is the wall frame attached to the joists? Nailed through the sole plate? or does it require something more substantial?
