CHOOSING THE RIGHT WOOD.
The decision in choosing the species of wood you would like your home built from, is often as difficult as choosing the right log home company to build your home. Each log home company will generally have a "preferred" species of building log.
The preference can be based on a long term knowledge of the characteristics of one individual species, or due to the lack of availability of a wider variety of species in their particular location. If a species is requested by a customer for a building log, the company then has to have the wood shipped into their log yard, adding further costs to the log package. Preference can also be attributed to the lack of quality of a given species in certain regions as well. This can be confusing for customers, as each company does tend to have very strong opinions on what wood should be used in building their home. In the long run, it is your preference that counts. Each species does have both pros and cons, and a general understanding of wood characteristics is beneficial in selecting the wood species for your own log home. Several characteristics to consider are appearance, resistancy to decay and insect, thermal qualities, workability, finish, as well as cost. Another important factor is the variance in colour of heartwood and sapwood in the species available. Eagle Rock Log Homes. offer Engleman Spruce, Douglas Fir, Red Cedar and Lodge-Pole Pine from British Columbia Canada. "British Columbia and its vast renewable, temperate rain forest and interior forests, produce arguably the finest trees in the world for use in log homes". The five major species that are indigenous to B.C. are Yellow Cedar, Red Cedar, Spruce, Douglas Fir and Pine.
We do not offer Yellow Cedar due to its low availability and extremely high price, In the EU Community construction is now in Red Cedar.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND FIRE RESISTANCY.
Log homes are energy efficient. The thermal mass capacity of log walls are higher than those of brick or concrete walls of the same thickness. Logs have the ability to store heat, and then relinquish the heat when it becomes cooler inside. Consequently the overall energy efficiency of a log home is better than comparable structures. The Nations Model Energy Code in Canada now recognizes the energy conservation benefits of thermal mass, which has been a victory for the Log Homes Council (LHC). The LHC has been claiming for years that a log wall's thermal mass does make a log home as energy efficient as a well-insulated frame wall. This claim was not officially acknowledged previously, due to the difficulty in quantifying thermal mass. Log home owners had the home heating bills to verify these claims, but the Department of Energy and Code officials required more than empirical evidence. In direct response, the LHC has gathered scientific statistics from independent research projects to substantiate its assertion. At the heart of the debate were the R-values, or the measure of heat transfer through materials. R-value measures a material's resistance to the transfer of heat from one side to another. Log walls have the ability to absorb and store heat in their cellular structure. The following is an excerpt from the LHC. Thermal mass is a material's capacity to absorb, store and slowly release heat over time. Logs do this well. The LHC set out to prove two things. First, logs have thermal mass because of their cellular structure, bulk and thickness. Second, this thermal mass provides significant energy-saving benefits because it released heat back into the house when temperatures drop. Early studies proved thermal mass properties significantly reduce heating and cooling loads in moderate climates. The National Institute of Standards conducted the most important of these studies for HUD in 1981-1982. However, energy experts continued to question the value of thermal mass during the winter months in northern climates. They doubted its benefit when heat is needed constantly and thermostat settings are opposite outdoor temperature. Two recent studies, both conducted in cold climate states, answer this question to the log home industry's benefit. In 1990, an independent testing agency, Advanced Certified Thermography, conducted a study for the Energy Division of the Minnesota Department of Public Service. It focused on heat loss through air leakage, assumed to be a problem with log walls because of their many joints. The study found the industry has substantially reduced air infiltration rates in the past 15 years. It credited this reduction to improved joint construction and the use of expanded foam sealants and gaskets on all joins and corner intersections. Leakage in the 23 test homes occurred in the same places it does in frame houses: at the peak of the cathedral ceilings, around window and door frames and along the tops of walls. The study concludes that air leakage in well-built, modern log homes is not due to their log walls. NAHB's research Center conducted the second study for the LHC in 1991. It showed the thermal mass of log walls does significantly reduce energy use for heating in cold climates. it based its conclusion on a comparison of the actual energy use of eight log homes to the actual energy use of eight well-insulated frame houses during one winter. The number of houses were evenly divided between upstate New York and Montana. The study also compared the homes actual energy use to their predicted energy consumption. The results led to the conclusion that log homes were as energy efficient as the frame houses. "What is significant here is the log walls' average R-values was 44% lower than the frame walls" average R-Value." says Carter. "Clearly we must conclude the thermal mass performance of log walls is an advantage to log home owners." An American study has shown that logs have a thermal performance value of R-22 for a building with 10" diameter logs with no insulation added. The logs used in our homes have a 12"-14" mean diameter, and with the addition of insulation being placed between the logs in the lateral grooves and notches add an even greater placed between the logs in the lateral grooves and notches add an even greater energy efficiency.
There is a recognizeable growth in the number of log homes, resorts and other buildings being built from log. One frequently asked question is "how do log walls perform in a fire" with the key question being "how long will log construction be able to withstand a fire until the manpower, equipment, and water can be deployed to extinguish it?"
Acceptance by code officials of solid wood walls has been elusive in the past years, in regards to their capacity to be fire-resistive construction. "The Log Homes Council (LHC) and its Members have used various resources that relate the performance of solid wood walls to fire endurance. Some performed in-house tests while others tested their products in certified labs followed by specific standard procedures. And as the years pass, the number of fire survival stories continues to increase." The LHC maintains the position that a 4" log wall can achieve a 1-hr fire-resistive rating, with even longer ratings provided by the solid wood wall. A nominal 6" log wall achieved a 1-1/2 hr fire-rating in full scale testing. "As the log wall thickness increases, so does the fire rating" It is important to mention that handcrafted log homes use a much larger diameter log than those involved in the testing, further increasing log mass and wall thickness. "As an organic material, wood is combustible. Yet its insulation and charring characteristics produce an astounding response to fire. The charring effects of wood results in a protective coating over the surface of the material. This protective char coat is very similar to the effect created by some fire-retardant chemicals used to protect materials and assemblies." According to Barbara Martin, Log Homes Council's Executive Director, "it does take a long time for a log to burn to the point where they lose their load-carrying capacity."
The information provided above is quoted from: The Fire Performance of Log Structures prepared by the Technical Committee of the Log Homes Council Building Systems Councils National Association of Home Builders March 2001 Rough Draft -A Test on the Fire Resistance of Log Walls.
The following test is quoted from: Log Building News International Log Builders Association - Fire Restance of Log Walls, by Dalibor Houdek, Ph.D. Number 35, September 2001 "The Technical University of Zvolen, Slovakia, has commenced research to answer questions of fire resistance of a chinkless log wall used primarily in North America, and to develop a model for estimating the fire resistance of log walls. The large scale experiment according to ISO 834 was undertaken in PAVUS-Fire Research Institute, Czech Republic.
EXPERIMENT: The test sample consisted of twelve spruce logs of 257 mm (10") average diameter. They were joined in the traditional chinkless, full-scribe fit style. The cupped lateral grooves were approx. 15mm (3/4") deeper than necessary, to accommodate the mineral wool insulation. The test wall was 3250 mm (10'-8") long, and 2800 mm (9'-2") tall. Eleven logs were kiln-dried to an average moisture content (MC) of about 19% and one log was conditioned to 36%. The long grooves were filled with mineral wool (rock-wool type). due to the natural irregularities of each log, the width of the grooves varied between 89mm and 130mm with an average of 105mm (4"). The ends of the panel were splined (like a door opening) and 3 spruce pegs per log, 30 mm in diameter, were driven approximately 800 mm (30") apart to support the wall logs. They were driven only through two vertically-adjacent logs. The log wall was exposed to fire, and temperatures inside the log, inside the grooves, and on the unexposed side were continually monitered and recorded. The log wall was continuously vertically loaded on the centerline with 15kN m(-1) using a hydraulic loading system built in the furnace loading frame. The load figure derived from the calculation of a one-and-a half storey log house.
RESULTS:
According to ISO 834, structural walls can fail in three ways during a fire resistance test: 1. fail in integrity, causing ignition of a cotton pad, permitting the penetration of flames resulting in sustained flaming, or 2. fail in insulation, causing an increase of the average temperature above the initial average temperature by more than 140 degree Celcius, or increase above the initial temperature at any location by more than 180 degress Celcius, or 3. fail in load bearing capacity -basically if the wall loses 1% of its height, it has failed. Inside the furnace, the log wall surface turned black in the 3rd minute of the test. In the 5th minute the surface ignited and continued to burn for the duration of the test. Large deep cracks developed around the 11th minute. From about the 30th minute the walls surface was red and charred with large deep cracks for the rest of the test. It was observed that when the fire-exposed edge of the lateral groove burned off, the mineral insulation inside the long groove protruded, and expanded to about its initial thickness of 50mm. No flame penetration through the wall was observed during the test. The side unexposed to fire showed no visible changes, smoke penetration was not observed through the wall joints.
Comparing the results of chinkless log wall joint with the chinked wall joint tested by Sashco Sealants Inc., the scribe-fit log wall has a much higher insulation value. At 60 minutes of the test duration, the chinkless log wall showed absolutely no increase in surface temperature, compared to an average 71 degrees Celsius temperature increase of the chinked log wall tested by Sashco Sealants Inc. The temperature on the hot side of the scribe-fit log wall exceeded 1100 degrees Celsius, but the cool side never got above 48 degrees Celsius, even after almost 3 hours of burning. Conclusions; Knowing how log walls react to fire exposure is important for evaluating newly constructed buildings and existing log structures. A large-scale laboratory test showed that a massive wooden wall with considerable numbers of lateral wood-to-wood joints can maintain the fire safety requirements prescribed by the ISO 834 for as long as 172 minutes. The log wall withstood 180 minutes from its integrity and insulation viewpoint and 172 minutes from the point of its load bearing capacity. The handcrafted chinkless log wall constructed in the manned described above shows better integrity, insulatiion, and load bearing capacity than the chinked or milled log walls tested by other laboratories and detailed in this article - its properties provide significant resistance
LOG HOMES AND NATIONAL DISASTERS:
Log homes have a long established record of surviving natural disasters in much better condition than frame houses. A log home was the only beachfront home in Carolina to remain standing during Hurricane Hugo. Florida log homes managed to survive the winds resulting from Hurricane Andrew in 1992, with minor damage. Log homes were among the few dwellings that escaped major damage during the most recent California earthquakes. In 1973, a log home survives another natural disaster - a flood in Vermont, by floating down river after its foundation had been undercut by flood waters.
EXPORT AND SHIPPING WORLDWIDE - ONLY APPLIES TO FLATPACKS:
There are several factors to consider when having your log package shipped from Canada overseas. The first and foremost to consider is the shipping of the logs and the necessary procedures that must be undertaken.
For any of the of the fmembers of the European Union, including Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Luxemburg, Ireland, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom, we must work closely with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) in regards to the species of wood and wood treatments that are acceptable. Logs must be sprayed with an anti-fungicide/pesticide spray prior to shipping as in-transit fumigation is not permitted.
We do have available both Western Red Cedar and kiln dried house logs.
Within Canada the CFIA will regulate the proper procedures for shipping log homes. Once the wood arrives in the EU, the Plan Protection Organizations of the EU member states will enforce the new import requirements.
As with all of our log homes delivered throughout the U.S. and Canada, we do send a representative to assist in the re-assembly of the log package on your foundation. Often due to the expense of high quality wood doors and windows in various countries, we are frequently asked to provide a quote for the doors and windows. This can be done once the construction drawings are completed. This allows you to compare locally as well.
GETTING STARTED.
The first step that we recommend taking is compiling a list of all costs involved in your project.. Any of our designs can be modified or changed to suit your requirements. We can also provide a rough quote on any of your own design ideas. You can send a rough drawing by fax or e-mail. Please be sure to include all exterior dimensions. Full construction drawings can be sent by mail as well for pricing. We can refer you to the draftsman that our company uses.
Please let us know if you would like to contact our draftsman for a quote on the construction drawings. Many of our existing plans are offered as "stock plans" as shown in our brochure.
Once construction drawings are completed, we are then able to provide a quote on the door and window package.You can obtain quotes locally for your foundation/subfloor and all finishing costs associated with the log package. A crane must also be on location to move the logs from the shipping containers to the foundation.
SHIPPING PROCEDURE.
Once the log package is completed in our construction yard, each log is tagged and numbered, and the log package is dis-asssembled. The log package is then loaded into 40' open top containers and sent by truck to Vancouver B.C. Shipping routes and transit time are strictly dependent upon your location.
HOW TO OBTAIN A SHIPPING QUOTE.
Please include the following information:
Your name
Country and city (or nearest city/town) the log package will be delivered toYour nearest port
The size of home you are interested in (in order to calculate the number of containers required)
When you are planning on building.
We will contact the shipping company that we use, and request a quote for you. The shipping company generally takes a week or so to fax us a quote. We also suggest that you contact several local shipping companies as well for a comparison quote.

F.A.Q´s
Q. What species of wood do you build your log packages from?
Species available are:
Lodge-Pole Pine
Engleman Spruce
Douglas Fir
Red Cedar
Red Cedar is now used for construction in the EU Community.
Q . What are the Characteristics of each of the log species available?
We have separate information leaflets covering the areas listed below- please request one, if you require more in-depth information.
Choosing the right wood species for your home
Wood shrinkage and moisture content
The energy efficiency of log homes
The fire performance of log homes
Q . Where is the log package built?
All log packages are built in the construction yards.
Q . Do you "farm" out your log packages to other companies to build?
Most definitely not, as it would be impossible to maintain our high quality and standards.
Q . Are your logs kiln dried or air-dried?
Handcrafted log homes are built from very large hand-peeled, winter harvested, high altitude, old, growth timber. House logs average a 12"-14" mean diameter. Due to this size, kiln drying is not feasible.
Q . What type of log joinery do you use?
We typically use the Saddle Notch on our corners, but can also provide any variation of notch including Dovetail.
Q . How do I receive a price list for the designs I am interested in?
Please feel free to e-mail us and we will send you a quote Please give full address details and where you hope to construct your log home.
Q .Can I make changes to one of your existing designs?
Yes, all of our designs can be modified or changed. We can refer you to the draftsman that our company uses. He first does a preliminary drawing, and once accepted by you, completes the construction drawings that we build from. He can send floor plans/elevations by e-mail or fax as well.
Q . Do you build custom designed homes?
Yes, we can also build from your construction drawings. Our draftsman can provide you with a full set of construction drawings for youur custom design if you prefer.
Q . What is supplied by Eagle Rock Log Homes?
We supply the log portion of your home, such as the log walls, log ridge beams and purlins, support posts, log stairs and railing. Materials such as windows, doors, dimensional lumber can generally be purchased at a lower cost from your local suppliers, as well as cut down on the expense of shipping these items.
Q . Where can you deliver your log packages to?
The majority of our log packages are delivered throughout the European Union. For further information please refer to our export leaflet.
Q . How do I receive a delivery quote?
By sending us an e-mail, requesting that this information be sent to you. We need to know the exact location the home would be shipped to, including nearest port and town/city. Please also provide the size of home (area ) you are looking for, in order for us to calculate the number of loads that would be required.
. Log homes are generally shipped in 40' open top containers. Please feel free to contact carriers yourself in order to obtain a more efficient rate than what we can provide.
Q . What types of interior walls are used in your log homes?
Interior walls are generally frame construction, unless the design specifies interior log walls.
Q .Can an Eagle Rock Log Home be built on a basement?
Our homes can be built on a full or partial a basement.
Q . Can I erect the walls of my own log package?
For clients to errect their own log package, due to the large logs used in handcrafted construction, we supply one artisan, included in our package price you will need a team of 3 or 4 men for the re-assembley of the log package on your foundation.
Q . How long does it take to build the log package in your construction yard?
An average sized home takes approx. 12 weeks to build in our log yard, and 20 for the re-assembly on your foundation,- this is a very flexible schedule and varies according to the model chosen.
Q . Is there any way of viewing the construction of my log package in your yard, once we have ordered a home from you?
Yes, you are most welcome to visit our log yard at your convenience. We can also post the progress of the construction of your log package.
Q .Can I become a dealers or representatives for Eagle Rock Log Homes.?
Yes, please let us know if this is of interest to you.
Q . How do we get started building a log home?
It is important to have a full understanding of all the costs associated with building your home, as well as knowledge of the complete construction schedule. We have a separate leaflet which covers this aspect- please request this from us.
Q . How much should we budget for the building of our log home?
There are many variables in the building of your log home to consider, such as the construction drawings, log shell costs, freight, crane time required for the re-assembly, and the finishing of the log package. We can provide you with a price list for the designs shown within our range. Generally with a custom designed home, customers will send us a rough drawing of their home by e-mail or fax. It is most difficult to provide an exact price for the log package until the construction drawings are finalized. With most of our designs, the majority of our customers prefer to make some modifications or changes.
Most log homes cost approx. 500 euros per sq.metre to completely finish, including the price of the log package, depending upon the size of home.
Q . Are log homes energy efficient?
We have provided information on the energy efficiency of log homes in a separate leaflet. Please request this from us.
Q . What is your payment schedule?
Our payment schedule is as follows:
40% down payment
35% when log package is half completed in our construction yard
25% remaining when log package is completely built in our yard.
Q . When should the down payment be made?
It is important to reserve space as soon as possible. In the event of a backlog we work on a first-come-first-served basis, with the deposit being the lock in for the price and time slot. You get your home when you want it.
Q . Are there custom duties or export fees?
There are brokerage fees that accrue with Eagle Rock log homes. This expense is accounted for in the price quoted.
Q . What size of homes do you build?
From small cabins to large homes and commercial buildings.
Q . How long have you been in business?
We have been in the construction business for over 25 years.
