Jan. 9, 1934. G. MIDBY BUILDING MATERIAL Filed July 29. 1932 .20 CPI/w m Patented Jan. 9,-1934 g UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE BI'ILDING MATERIAL Gilbert Midby, Whitefish, Mont. Application July'29, 1932. Serial No. 626,108 2 Claims. (c1. 20-4) The invention has relation to building material 9, intermediately of the widths of said faces and for log houses, having for an object to provide a of dimensions one half inch by one half inch use for lodge pole timber which is of little value approximately in cross section, the grooves of for square timber owing to its small size. Another adjacent half logs registering.
6 object is to provide such a building material Due to the fact that a log which is not split open wherein the logs will not split or chock open to centrally through the heart thereof lengthwise admit water. which causes rotting. Another obis not adapted for use as building material as it ject is to provide an insulation means against will split or chock open to admit moisture, the the entrance of water between the logs and also lodge pole timber used herein is split or sawed 10 against the entrance of air between the logs. lengthwise centrally thereof and the half logs Another object is to provide logs for use with such squared on top and bottom as stated, the finished insulation means, said logs reversible end for end dimensions of each half log being about four by to match up for thickness of the logs. Another six inches in cross section. object is to provide building material of the nat- The dados or grooves 5 and the grooves 9 are 15 ural logs which shall be lasting and also econommade in both upper and lower faces of each half ical in first cost and labor cost in the construclog, so that should the half logs vary in thicktion of the side walls of a house. Another objectness, they may be reversed end for end, with the is to provide such a building material which after natural side still outward, to match better for being set up in a house, is adapted to be taken thickness, after which the longitudinal strips 6 20 down and transported and reassembled in anmay be inserted in the related grooves to the other location or stored without substantial damsame advantage. age thereto. The side walls of a log house so constructed The invention consists in thenovel construction may be readily taken down or dismantled, and and combinations of parts, as set forth in the reassembled in another location, or stored, with 26 appended claims. little or no damage to the material used.
In the accompanying drawing illustrating the The building material shows the natural log invention, Figure 1 is a cross section of a portion and appeals to the public, and should the natural of the side wall of a house constructed in accord log effect be desired also for the interior walls of with my invention. Figure 2 is a detail perspecthe house, this can be readily accomp i by 30 tive view of a portion of one of the half logs used. merely duplicating the structure for the inside In the drawing, the numeral 1 designates the walls of the house. half logs, each formed from the entire 10g cen- In finishing the inside Walls of the house with trally and longitudinally divided through the plaster board, celotex or the like, rather than with heart thereof, and provided with vertical inner the natural log effect, the strips of plaster board 85 faces 2, and upper and lower horizontal faces 3, or celotex may obviously be nailed to uprights or intersecting the vertical faces at right angles, furring strips (not shown) suitably secured to the whereby the half logs are adapted to be piled upon inner vertical face of t e Wall. one another to provide acontinuous vertical inner Standard size logs may be used instead of wall face. lodge pole timber, and the dimensions of the 40 Located at the intersection of the convex outer grooves and strips may be varied without deface 4, of each half log with the upper and lower parting from the spirit of the invention. horizontal faces thereof are provided vertical I claim: grooves or dados 5, of the width of the saw 1. Building material, comprising half logs used in making the same, the grooves of adjaformed of the entire logs centrally and longi- 45 cent half logs registering, and in the groove of tudinally divided through the heart thereof and the upper half log of each pair of half logs is having vertical inner faces, upper and lower horilocated a longitudinal vertical insulation strip zontal faces intersecting said inner faces at right 6 of metal, having a lower outwardly bent apron angles whereby the half logs are adapted to be portion 7, resting upon the upper part of the piled upon one another to form a continuous ver- 50 Outer d o the lower half s of the pair, to tical inner wall face, said half logs at the interwhich t s nailed at thereby p v nting all sections of the horizontal faces with the convex moisture from getting in between the half logs, outer faces of the half logs being provided with Which would tend t Cause rottingv 0f the W Odvertical grooves of the width of the saw used in The upper and lower horizontal faces of the making said grooves, and a longitudinal vertical 55 half logs are a P v d d wit V t ca grooves insulation strip of metal fitting in the groove of 10 the upper half log or each pair of half logs and having a lower outwardly bent apron portion resting upon and secured to the upper portion of the outer side of the lower half log of the pair.
2. Building material, comprising half logs formed of the entire logs centrally and longitudinally divided through the heart thereof and having vertical inner faces, upper and lower horizontal faces intersecting said inner faces at right angles whereby the half logs are adapted to be piled upon one another to form a continuous vertical inner wall face, said half logs at the intersection oi. the horizontal races with the convex H outer faces thereot being provided with verticai registering grooves of the width of the saw used in making the same. a longitudinal vertical metal insulation strip fitting in the groove of the upper half log of each pair of half logs and having a lower outwardly bent apron portion resting upon and secured to the upper portion of the outer side or the lower half log of the pair, said halt logs having also intermediately of the widths thereof vertical registering grooves, the half logs being reversible end to end to match for thickness.
