Known also as " Stackwall" and "Cordwood Masonry" Building Alternatives has been involved in stackwall for many years.

A technique of wall construction that uses log-ends, round wood buildings have been providing low-cost, low-maintenance structures for many years. Imagine a pile of firewood with mortar in between the logs....
that's round-wood construction.

Structures can be built using locally- available
wood resources - aspen, cedar pine and tamarack
have all been used successfully.

Typically, round-wood structures are owner-built
which keeps labour costs low and
promotes for self-reliant living.
The large thermal mass in the walls keep
round-wood structures warm in the winter
and cool in summer.....
