Thru-bolt construction diagram. Thru-Bolt Construction

A thru-bolt is a half inch threaded rod which runs through drilled holes from the top of the log wall down into the sub-floor. Thru-bolts give the logs freedom to settle while also providing maximum hold down force. Thru-bolts can be tightened after the logs are up which eliminates separation between the logs.

While spikes and screws can promote gaps forming between the logs, thru-bolt construction keeps the logs tight for the life of the home.
