Wall type - Log walls

[AbeLopez]

Hi

 

Looking for a log wall type example.

 

Thanks

I just use a single grout layer (7" thick) - not framing - wall type and then stack logs as follows.

• (9" diameter cylinders -symbols)
• half logs (top and bottom)
• generally stack the logs at 1" less than the diameter.

This allows me to insert doors and windows in the wall - but the logs have to be adjusted lengthwise.

It's best to place the doors and windows before stacking logs.

You can get close to automatic with a very custom set of textures stacked up in your wall type. incrementally shapes the logs

You would add quoins that are custom to recreate the log ends at the corners which I do not have shown

There are also log sybols in the library

• Core>Exteriors>Logs

Basically I just prefer to do log homes the same way they are built.  That is the only - or at least the easiest - way to get a complete quantity take-off.
