RCM CAD DESIGN DRAFTING LTD is a building design firm primarily specializing in log and timber construction projects since 1993.  Now with over one thousand designs completed in North America, Europe, Asia, including projects in Central / South America and Australia /Oceania, our experience encompasses very diverse weather conditions and local building practices.  Our expertise also includes cordwood, straw and clay, straw bale, insulated concrete form (ICF), conventional frame and steel construction styles.*

Our latest software and powerful computer hardware allow us to virtually build a 3D model of your future home. We are then able to produce high quality 3D movies and animations of your future home using a program called BIMx .  This powerful visual tool allows you to “visit” your home inside and out. which gives you the ability to make all of the right decisions concerning your home. Therefore, YOU are in control instead of being in the dark during the design process.

This Alaska log home is a rancher of 1501 sq.ft.  It boasts two master suites, a large common area for kitchen and sitting plus a bump out dining as per customer’s request.  The roof is a simple metal cladding mono-slab roof.  The house sits on a concrete slab with in floor heating.

The logwork in this project is quite extensive with two interior log walls to separate bedroom suites from main area and timber rafters for structural to support a roof decking and ISO rigid foam panels for insulation.
