 SCRIBED TRUSSES
Description: hand scribed white spruce log truss system
Finished Size: Structural trusses will be sized per individual engineered specs. Decorative trusses are by design.

Our structural log trusses are engineered and graded to meet local building codes. Current BOCA building codes require that all structural trusses are made from graded logs.

Our log trusses will be the focal point of your log cabin. They are hand-scribed by our staff of professionals that have decades of experience, and engineered by our in-house engineer to insure their structural integrity. Your log trusses are too important to leave in the hands of inexperienced or small producers.

Give us your room size and snow load requirements, and we will provide the engineered, scribed log trusses and purlins to make your log cabin home or commercial structure a work of art. Each component is marked to show your builder how to reassemble the trusses to get the fit and finish you want.

 CREATING YOUR CUSTOM TRUSS

 

To provide the quality and sizes needed to fulfill our customers' log or timber home expectations, and to age our timbers, we have to maintain a large supply of spruce logs. Each log is inspected in the woods to make sure it meets our strict quality and engineering requirements. They are brought into our yard to rough peel and dry for 6 to 12 months. This is an expensive process, but a necessary one that provides our customers with quality structural log materials. You should expect nothing less from your wholesale log cabin home component supplier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the logs have aged and naturally checked in the drying process, each is again inspected to make sure it will meet BOCA building codes. Then they are brought into the production building for scribing and assembly by our experienced craftsmen. It will take approximately 40 to 50 hours to produce one white cedar or spruce log truss. It takes time to get the perfect fit we demand of ourselves.

 

 

To achieve the natural log home look without jeopardizing our truss' engineering load requirements, we bury as much of the connecting steel as possible. Most of our customers do not want steel exposed on the face of their log / timber trusses, so we keep the bolts and steel hidden from view.





Then comes the finishing touch up peeling process. When our log or timber trusses leave the yard, they are wrapped and ready for installation and staining.

 

 







IMAGINE THIS CRAFTSMANSHIP IN YOUR LOG CABIN HOME OR COMMERCIAL BUILDING. IT TAKES TIME BUT IT'S WORTH IT. WE CONSISTENTLY HEAR BACK FROM OUR CUSTOMERS THAT THEIR TRUSSES ARE MORE THAN THEY HAD EVER DREAMED POSSIBLE. YOU DESERVE THE BEST PRODUCTS FROM A RELIABLE SOURCE.
