Durability from Kontio Arctic Pine The amount of durable heartwood with antibacterial substances is higher in Kontio Arctic Pine than in normal wood The oldest log house Nothnagle Cabin in the USA was built in 1638 by Finns to New Sweden colony in New Jersey Light-colour sapwood Heartwood old & durable

Kontio WoodHow High-tech laminated log Durable heartwood is turned and laminated to the exterior sides of the logs High-tech log profile with revolutionary sealing technologies

Warm & energy efficient Innovations & high-tech solutions Moisture safe structures Long-life & durable Made to last from father to son Kontio Healthy Living Kontio - safe & reliable investment

Log structures endure earthquakes exceptionally well Loads Seismic loads are cyclic forces, rapidly changing vertical and horizontal directions. Elastic log joints Log joint will return to its place after temporary displacement during earthquake. Transitions Log house endures vertical and horizontal transitions without losing its strength. Bolting Logs are bind to each other with different kinds of bolts and dowels to brace the wall. Anchoring To conduct horizontal loads to the ground, a log layer must be anchored to the underlaying layer and again to the foundations. Foundations Horizontal loads are conducted from walls and roof to the foundations and from there to the ground.

Environmentally friendly, energy efficient, safe and sustainable building

Environmental impacts of wood construction Material production Renewable material Wood binds carbon All parts of wood are used in the process Construction Manufacture of wooden house produces less CO2 emissions than other forms of construction Use Requires less energy for heating Maintenance Well maintained wood house lasts for long Demolition Wood can be reused or recycled No wood waste is produced

Wood stores carbon Every ton of wood binds almost 2 tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere Medium-sized log house has about 30 tons of wood. It commits the same amount of carbon dioxide as generated approximately 400 000 km driving a car.

Good reasons to use more wood in buildings: CO2 emissions caused by the manufacture of exterior walls 1. The manufacture of wood products uses less non-renewable resources 2. Wood remains in buildings for a long time and stores up a lot of carbon 3. At the end of its lifetime wood can be recycled or used to produce bioenergy 4. Wood can substitute nonrenewable materials, which decreases the use of fossil fuels LOGHOUSE HAS A GOOD CARBON FOOTPRINT!

The use of unprocessed log in the factory 0.79 m³ for other timber 1.0 m³ for logs 1.14 m³ delivered to the paper mill 1.02 m³ for energy usage Use of unprocessed log: - logs 25 % - other timber 20 % - paper mill 29 % - energy wood 26 % Manufacturing 1 m³ of laminated logs produces more than 1 m³ of energy wood. This wood includes about 7000 MJ clean energy. 3.94 m³ Unprocessed log Source: Matti Alasaarela 2008, Hirsiseinän ympäristövaikutusten laskenta elinkaaritarkastelun avulla

Usage of energy wood 4% (280 MJ/m³) are produced to the wood pellets for home heating 68% (4760 MJ/m³) are burned in the district heating plant. 28% (1960 MJ/m³) are used for wood dryer in the factory via district heating plant Source: Matti Alasaarela 2008, Hirsiseinän ympäristövaikutusten laskenta elinkaaritarkastelun avulla

Energy consumption of a log wall during its life cycle Harvesting Production Transportation Construction Service 50 years Total 3534 MJ/ logm³ Energy consumption is calculated beginning from the forest until the house is 50 years old. Clean energy from production waste wood Total consumption during a log wall life time Extra clean energy from the process 7000 MJ/log-m³ -3534 MJ/log-m³ = 3466 MJ/log-m³ Log production produces more energy than it uses.

Kun puuta käytetään rakentamiseen se vaikuttaa välittömästi kasvihuonekaasupäästöjen määrään. Rakennuksen energiatehokkuutta parantamalla vaikutus tulee vasta myöhemmin, rakennuksen käytön aikana Kaavio esittää hirsitalon ja kivitalon (betoni tai tiili) kasvihuonekaasupäästöjä talon elinkaaren aikana. Kivitalossa suuri osa päästöistä syntyy jo rakentamisen aikana, kun taas hirsitalo toimii hiilinieluna. Jos lämmitykseen käytettävä energia muuttuu puhtaammaksi, eivät hirsitalon päästöt saavuta koskaan kivitalon päästöjen tasoa (punaiset katkoviivat).

Log house good for heart In Austria research about students in 4 school classes, two made of massive wood and two traditional masonry The students heart beat rate was measured for a year On average the heartbeat was 8600/day lower in a massive wood class, meaning 6 beats/minute throughout the day Log has positive calming effect to heart http://www.holzfachberater.at/seiten/news.php?m=12&id=2

INSPIRATION OF KONTIO GLASS HOUSE www.theglasshouse.org Inspiraatiota Kontio Glass Houseen saimme USA:n Connecticutissa sijaitsevasta alkuperäisestä The Glass House -talosta. Arkkitehti Philip Johnson suunnitteli sen kodikseen luonnon keskelle 50-luvulla.
