account when fastening frame-structured separating walls, stairs, fittings and posts to log
structures. A settling space must be left between unsettled structures and threaded legs must
be used with load-bearing structures. The nominal effective height of the logs is 135 mm.
Some timber is delivered in sawfallen length and must be cut to size at site. Such timber may
be, for example, the roof boards, fascia boards and trims. Pay attention to their correct
jointing points. Parts delivered in such a way are marked in the parts list.
Floor boards are so-called shipping-dry timber and a gap will form in their joints in dry
conditions.
Logs and timber should not get wet during the assembly. If the erection of the building is
interrupted, ensure that the building and its parts are protected.
Pay attention to temporary supports during the assembly.
Lengthening logs
On the long walls, it is necessary to butt logs together by creating a joint between the logs.
The joint should be located in the corner intersection, if possible. The joint is made on the cut-
out using a small nailing plate and screws. If the joint is made carefully, it will not weaken the
wall structure.
Doors and windows
In principle, doors and windows can be added to the building or their places changed.

Use an insulator allowing settling when filling the gaps. It is not allowed to use
polyurethane foam!
One
spare log
is included in the delivery. This spare log is intended to be used if a log has a
machining defect or is otherwise damaged or of the wrong size. The spare log must be cut to
size at site. If needed, a cut-out will be made to the spare log at site. The log can be cut to
several spare parts.
Note!
The cut-out is worked with a handsaw and, for example, a chisel.
Take the measurements and example from a completed cut-out.
Sauna
When building a sauna, the builder must consider the regulations concerning sauna stoves and
chimneys. The requirements set by the sauna stove and chimney have not been considered in
the structures. Sufficient ventilation of the sauna must be ensured. Holes for the air valves
must be made to the outer walls.
Special attention must be paid on the surface treatment of floor boards inside the sauna.
Additional insulation
The delivery does not include thermal insulation. When using thermal insulation, follow the
related instructions and regulations. It is particularly important to pay attention to the vapour
barrier and ventilation, if they are required.
