The week before Christmas, our builder came in to build the first floor structure and put down the plywood sub-flooring on the deck.

The first step is to install the perimeter box, which is a large beam that will support the log walls and a great deal of the house's structure.


Then the center beam is put in place. This large beam will support the floor joists for the main part of the house.




The joists are put in place and the sub-floor is nailed down to the deck..


A view of the basement now that the floor is in place.


The deck is finished, and the house is ready for the log walls to be built.


Next: We start the log wall construction.
