Description

Building a retreat in the woods or a homestead off the grid can be a rewarding project, but it requires careful planning and execution. This revised and expanded edition of Cabins and Cottages provides a logical and sensible approach to building permanent shelter in remote locations. The book covers a range of topics, from site selection and electrical power generation to building techniques for A-frame cabins and rustic log cabins with framed roofs. It also includes guidance on designing small buildings to withstand natural hazards such as earthquakes, heavy snow, high wind, and flooding. With this comprehensive guide, you'll be equipped to tackle the challenges of building a getaway retreat that meets your needs and withstands the elements.
