Advantages
of an Eco Friendly Timber Log Home
Eco-friendly Timber Homes
Timber Frame is the most widely used structural building method in the world offering a fast, eco friendly highly insulated building solution.
Advantages
- A guaranteed construction programme
- Construction time is reduced by up to 30% to that of alternative building methods
- Reduced foundation costs due to a lighter structure
- Low impact foundations are environmentally friendly and can be dug into steep slopes , clay soil or even dune sand
- Thermal efficiency is as much as 6 to 8 times that of alternative building methods
- Warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer reduces energy costs
- Timber Frame is a dry form of construction you will not get drying out cracks common in wet construction
- Wood is effectively a carbon neutral material (even allowing for transport)
- For every cubic metre of wood used instead of other building materials 0.8 tonne of CO2 is saved from the atmosphere. Strength for strength, concrete uses 5 times and steel uses 6 times more energy to produce than timber.
