Base frame 

(Foundation joists) 

The base frame of the house must be completely flat and level to ensure that the installation proceeds 
without problems. 

ATTENTION: different house can have different foundation placements –  see the appended 
base frame drawing (in Technical specifications)! 

Place the impregnated foundation joists on the prepared foundation in accordance with the drawing at 
equal intervals. Make sure that the joists are level and rectangular prior to screwing them together.  

ADVICE

: It is recommended to place between the foundation joists  and foundation a damp-proof 

course that will protect the house from moisture and decay.  

ADVICE

: To ensure protection from wind and storm, it is recommended to attach the foundation joists 

to the foundation (for this, you can use for instance metal angles, anchors, etc.). The corresponding 
materials are not included in the supplied kit! 

Installation of foundation joists: 

 

 

Walls 

When installing the walls, it is important to remember that: 

  The logs are always assembled with their tongue upwards! 

  If necessary, use the hitting block and hammer! Never directly hit the tongue with the hammer! 

Install the walls in accordance with the appended wall plans (see Technical specifications). 

First of all place half  logs of front and back wall at the 
correct location and attach them with screws to the 
foundation  joists. Then install the side wall logs. Make sure 
that  the first layer of logs  extends a bit over the foundation 
joists: the logs must extend over the joists by some 3-5 mm. 
You will thus protect the house from moisture, allowing the 
free flow of rainwater into the ground.  

 

ATTENTION

After the first layer of logs, measure the 

diagonal lengths and, if necessary, re-install the logs. Only if 
the diagonal lengths are completely equal is the base frame 
rectangular and you can mutually attach the logs.  

         

 

            The first layer of logs: 

 

 

Continue  the installation of the walls by strongly forcing the wall logs into one another. If necessary, 
use the hitting block and hammer. At the same time, do not forget to begin the installation of the door 
and windows. You should definitely begin the door installation after the 5
