Traditional Log House Construction Techniques

Solid wood construction, also called traditional log house construction or single-shell log construction, is one of the oldest known construction techniques. Hundreds of years ago, people in Europe, America, and Asia built log cabins and regularly improved this construction method. Log houses are still built today with and without additional insulation. In the single-shell construction of log houses without additional insulation of the external walls, the external walls must have a certain strength by the Building Energy Act GEG, formerly Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV), to ensure proper thermal protection. There are several construction options for the production and construction of the exterior walls of single-shell solid wood log houses. Thus, the log walls can be made of glued or unglued solid wood.

Understanding Wall Construction Options

In single-shell, non-glued solid wood log houses without additional insulation, there are two possibilities for the walls. One is that the beams of the outer walls can be created from core-separated or wood with the core. The beams with core are suitable for log houses with a more solid look. Every beam in which the core is not cut out of the log gets cracks when it is drying. Due to the large tensions that arise during the drying phase, the crack goes from the outside of the log to the core. The log does not stop tearing until the tensions are released by the crack. In Perr log houses, the wood is rotated as much as possible so that the main crack in the log disappears in the groove and spring connection. Nevertheless, the natural-looking cracks will also be visible on the side of the wall.
