But i habe a question: What is a Summer Beam?
Lutz
Thanks Lutz, I'm not sure how well I'm doing, but a log cabin like this is rough to start with so we'll see where that goes.
A Summer beam is a heavy beam that would run lengthwise under the floor beams and would carry the weight of the second floor. The word has nothing to do with Summer, but is derived from a French word basically used for load bearing.
