CA 2541653
The present invention relates to panelized log home construction. In a first embodiment, a wall panel comprises a plurality of logs of predetermined length stacked on top of each other. A tongue is machined into each log end such that when stacked a wall tongue is formed from the aligned log tongues. A rod channel runs through the stacked logs for receiving a tension/lifting rod. A first end of the tension/lifting rod comprises a rod lifting attachment for lifting and adjustment of the tensioning force. Optional protective coverings fixedly cover each wall tongue and optional wall utility channels receive wires and pipes, as required. A pair of posts fixedly attached to a foundation slidably receive the wall panels. Machined into each post is at least one wall receiving groove sized to slidably receive and cooperate with the wall tongue. An optional protective groove insert fixedly covers each wall receiving groove to lessen the possibility of post breakage upon wall panel insertion.
