Ward Cedar Log Home Three car garage

Mike Hompertz of Patriot Log Home builders received a call from a Ward Cedar log home Dealer Don  to bid on this project which he completed a few weeks ago. The family , who works on a farm already had a log home. They loved it so much that they wished to add a 3 car garage to their property and add above it a living  area  above. They choose beam rafters and tongue and groove for the ceiling (see the second picture) which looks magnificent .
Three car garage aprox 1500 sq ft

~10 day project~
This project took 10 days with three men. The  homeowner and two sons wished to be a part of it and as they worked a farm were able to  chip in. They   helped with  sorting logs, setting windows , purlins and lent a hand when called to do so.  .

purlins were set with a smaller  truck crane for about an hour  supplied by the homeowner. typical crane is 4300 an hour plus operator.    see veidos

3 car garage with Studio apartment WARD Cedar log home built by Patriot log HOme builder

being set with the aid of a truck crane.
The large full log purlins that extend out past the roof give this garage a look of awe and magnificence! They are very heavy and require skill to set however. Mike HOmpertz of Patriot log home builders is experienced in this field. A crane of some type is required. A small truck crane was rented for about one hour by the homeowner (usually about $300 an hour) which does not include the wage of the driver, while the men gently guided and secured the purlins into place. The driver of this crane was very skilled and made the job go smoothly. You can see where they hand notched the placement prior to setting the mammoth beams.





This is how they turned out , what a lovely living quarters  this shall make for some lucky resident
