Abstract: The log-type building construction includes a pair of walls which are angularly disposed relative to one another, each wall including a plurality of logs positioned one on top of the other with the walls being in interlocking relation with one another in a vertically disposed interlocked region. The logs of one wall are in interleaved or interlaced relationship with the logs of the other wall along the interlock region. In accordance with the invention the logs of each wall have an obliquely disposed mortise therein adjacent the interlock region and locking means disposed in the mortises to secure the logs of said one wall to the logs of the other wall.
