NEBRASKA 1 is a 2 bedroom home or cabin with 70mm (2-3/4″) thick wall logs and is one of our most popular models and was redesigned in May of 2023. Both the Nebraska 1 and 2 models now have larger roof beams, larger floor beams, higher interior doors, and the wall height under the loft has been increased to 95″. The total footprint is 24′ x 40′, 960 sq’ which includes the 6′ covered deck area. The main floor interior is 24′ x 34′, with 816 sq’ plus a 280 sq’ loft over the 2 bedrooms. The main living area has 14′ high vaulted/cathedral ceiling creating a very open living space. The side walls are 95″ to the underside of the loft floor beams, floor joists/beams are 4″x 8″ with 1-1/8″ T&G flooring and the loft floor and the floor to peak is 92″ providing plenty of headroom.
Wall insulating kit: Add 10% to sale price, includes metal stud brackets with 3/4″ tongue & groove wall cover boards
Energy efficiency: 2×4 or 2×6 studs are be used to install insulation of your choice. Our solid wood walls add an additional R 4.4 and have virtually no heat or cold transfer, increasing the overall thermal and comfort benefits.
Tip: Mineral wool insulation is recommended for log construction. It’s impervious to moisture with a higher R-value per inch than fiberglass, reduces noise levels & is environmentally friendly
Insulating the roof: Apply locally supplied materials to add rafters over the tongue & groove roof boards. The build up depth is determined by the required R-value in the ceiling to meet local building codes. High density spray foam provides maximum benefits, highest R-value for thickness & is water proof. These added rafters also increase the roof load capacity
Assembly: The model can be assembled in approximately 10 days or less with 3 people
Tip: House wraps & vapor barriers are required in most regions when insulating. Vapor barriers are installed on the warm side of walls, interior of the studs for cold climates and exterior of studs for hot climates
Building Codes: Premium series homes & cabins are manufactured to meet all structural requirements for building codes including, California Title 24, earthquake, heavy snow load regions and hurricane zones
