 Log
Hybrid
A log hybrid home
is built using conventional construction
techniques along with both structural and
non-structural log elements. Design and
style are limitless with this type of construction
and the degree of log is left to the individual
tastes of the homeowner.
Examples of the types
of log components that are possible in
a conventional home are:
- Structural and
decorative log trusses
- Log roof structures
- Log beams and
floor joists
- “Handcrafted” log
siding
- Log porches
- Log stairs and
railings
- Log mantles
- Custom milled
beams to 45+ feet
Log hybrid construction
also lends itself well to the use of Structurally
Insulated Panels (SIPs). Timber Wolf Handcrafted
Log Homes can formulate
a package that is complete using SIP wall
and roof panels and the level of log you
desire. This type of package can be used
for small camps as well as large custom
residences.
The use of SIPs not
only speeds construction time, but also
produces an extremely energy-efficient
home that is far more superior to the insulating
capabilities of standard frame construction.
