731-574-8702 Cabins & Homes Larger cabins and homes for year round dwellings can be virtually any design. We manufacture to order, and to meet local building code requirements for wind and snow loads. For increasing wall heights, adding roof purlins or changing roof slopes the simplicity and versatility is unmatched.

. Type of wood All material is a northern spruce grown in a cold climate, creating a tight grain and is the most accepted and stable material for log construction. The wall logs sizes and moisture content is consistent, allowing for accurate production and assembly.
PAGE 3
Mounting first two rows of wall logs to foundation Concrete A moisture barrier can be applied between the first wall log and the surface it’s being mounted to The first TWO rows of wall logs must be secured to the foundation using long screws or lag bolts Local wind codes may require the use of additional metal brackets
PAGE 4
Windows and doors Windows and doors are NOT fastened to the wall logs with fasteners. This allows free movement for the logs to settle as they climatise.
PAGE 5
Using Local Windows When local building codes require specific windows & doors, local windows are used. Rough openings are cut during production to fit the local windows & door sizes. A spacer block must be fastened to the outside of the window frames at time of installation.
PAGE 6
Flashing Where flashing is required above windows and doors a saw kerf is cut in the wall log 2” above the exterior top trim board. Flashing is inserted to the saw kerf and sealed. (do not fasten to wall) As the wall logs settle the flashing will move down freely over the top exterior trim boards.
PAGE 7
Insulating Walls Studs with a depth required for the insulation being used, are installed 16” or 24” on center. Metal brackets are provided to attach the studs to the wall logs. No top plate or bottom plate is required.
PAGE 8
Insulating ceilings -‐ Option 1 Insulating the ceiling can be done from the interior by placing insulation between the purlins and then applying a cover board to the underside of the purlins.
PAGE 9
Electrical Wiring Wiring installed in studs using the same method as regular construction Interior divisional walls are pre-‐drilled with electrical chases during production. Wiring is installed during assembly and surface mounted or countersunk electrical outlets are used.
