All our builds are in enginered laminated wood as shown below in 6x8" D log

 

8x8_syp_lam_d_w

This is because this is more stable product than solid wood and is :

  1. Less prone to crack and warps than full log "Especialy in U.K climates" 
  2. More stable no need for settling jacks as other builds
  3. Kiln dried to the lowest ever possible moisture levels lower than 14 percent
  4. Laminated beams are stronger than steel weight for weight
  5. Bonded together using our Patented Rain drip edge included in our 5 point sealing process (in the case of Traditional Log Homes )
