A DURABLE AND EASY-TO-BUILD STACKWOOD HOUSE! Back in 1977, Jack Henstridge built on expensive ($75,000. appraised value! home out of stackwood (also called firewood, co/dwood. pilewood, stovewood, stackwall. etc.) for only $10;000. and he detailed the experiment for THE MOTHER EARTH NEWS (in issue 45). By merely stacking 9"-long sections of logs on their sides in a mortar matrix (and 6--long chunks for the interior walls). Jack and his wife constructed a unique and expansive house that's still braving the extra-cold winters common to their New Brunswick, Canada homestead. * Stackwood. in case you've never heard of it. is one of the oldest types of construction we know of. And it's a wonder more people haven't rediscovered this unusual type of log-home building, since it offers a number of significant advantages over the more common log construction methods . . . such as: |1| Simplicity. Anyone who can cut wood with a chain saw. and slack a neat cord, can build a "stackwood wall" house. |2| Low cost. Windfalls, trees that are too badly bowed or twisted to lie used in a conventional log cabin, "waste" lumber ... in short, darn near any kind of wood can be used to build a stackwood wall, as long as the wood is dry. |3| Soundproof design. Because the finished walls are so thick—and because the log ends tend to "reflect away" outside noises—the insides of cordwood structures are unusually quiet. |4| Fire resistance. The mortar in the wall tends to absorb the heat of combustion, making it all but impossible for a fire to spread. |5| No chinking. The mortar is largely self-healing. If a crack should develop, lime will leach into the break and calcify. [6| Building efficiency. Once the wall is up. it's finishe<^inside and out. |7| Environmental harmony. The edifices are aesthetically pleasing and they blend harmoniously into a natural background. The main drawback to stackwood construction is that the finished walls have poor insulating properties, primarily because lime mortar passes BTU like the proverbial sieve. The Henstridgcs have solved that problem, however, by making the walls fairly thick^nine inches) and by "sandwiching" hunks of Styrofoam in the mortar. After hearing about the "house that Jack built ". MOTHER'S research staff decided to give cordwood architecture a try by building a stackwood dome greenhouse at our Eco-Village. With the help of visitors to our summer seminars, the crew raised what is (to the best of our knowledge) the world s first such structure. We found this construction method to be labor-intensive but relatively low-cost, especially for folks who have access to free wood. In lad. our Eco-Village researchers were so impressed that they also used the fast and easy technique when building part of the barn that houses our livestock.
