Our construction techniques and strict adherence to accepted log building practices, as well as expandable foam gasket insulation ensures an air tight and extremely energy efficient building.
▪ Log homes are actually safer than stick frame construction when it comes to house fires. A properly built log home is naturally fire resistant.
▪ For fire safety structures are ranked within one of five different types of construction. At one end of the spectrum is Type 1, which is the most fire-resistant. Type one construction is comprised of NON-combustible material such as concrete, stone glass or steel. At the other end of the spectrum is Type 5, which is the MOST combustible. Type 5 is a ‘traditional stick frame.’
▪ When built properly log homes can qualify as “Heavy Timber Construction,” which fits under the category of Type 4 construction. That means that log homes can perform much better in a fire than stick frame homes.
▪ Once wood develops a thin layer of char, the char itself acts as an insulator – which slows the burn rate pretty dramatically during a fire. This is important for a log home because logs can retain a majority of their strength even if they sustain fire damage. For instance, if a log suffers a burn that is about 1/2′′ deep, the log will still retain about 90% of its original strength. This retention of strength leads to a retention of structural integrity, even when a fire has been burning for quite a while. If structural integrity is retained, that means the log home will not collapse and will be restorable – unlike most stick frame homes that go through a fire. Also, the sap inside a log, when heated, crystalizes and hardens making the log somewhat stronger.

FROM JAREK’s DOC
Log structures are energy efficient by design, due to the innate properties of the wood itself combined with an airtight construction.
▪ Logs have great thermal mass. That means they will easily absorb heat and release it back out over time.
▪ One important decision is going to be the thickness of the log.
▪ 6-inch logs will perform to R-20, 8-inch logs will perform to R-24
▪ Log Walls in this log package are an average midspan diameter of 13” with a minimum 11” tops and maximum 17” butts.
▪ Our construction techniques and strict adherence to accepted log building practices, as well as expandable foam gasket insulation ensures an air tight and extremely energy efficient building.
