NEW CONSTRUCTION – FRAMING

LOG HYBRID CUSTOM HOME

Framing this log-hybrid home off Los Trancos Rd in Portola Valley was a very interesting project and for some, a once in a lifetime experience. At J. Nord Wolfe it was simply a matter of course. We used a total of 73 piers anchor this pier and grade-beam foundation. Once complete, the retaining wall and perimeter walls were built. Composite I-beam cedar logs were used for exterior walls and conventional framing is seen throughout the interior of the home. Large beams were craned-in for the roof ridge and in short order, both foundation and framing were done.

AND TO THINK IT ALL BEGAN HERE

When building a custom home like this, on a California hillside, above an underground river and proximate to the San Andreas fault, significant considerations are made when planning the foundation. In this case, J. Nord Wolfe used, a pier and grade-beam foundation in order to accommodate the movement of the land and expansion/contraction of the soil.

If you have questions about a custom home and the best foundation to use on your property, J. Nord Wolfe here to help. Feel free to call or email via our contact page and we can set up a time to talk at your convenience.
