Martzloff Cabin

Location: Tom Miner Basin, MT
Client: Intrinsik Architecture, Inc.
Date Complete: October 2006

The largest construction challenge for this cabin was the remote site location. There were access limitations that would not allow for larger vehicles, such as concrete and delivery trucks, the ability to access the construction site. Therefore, the structure is supported by steel columns on isolated concrete pads with cable cross ties for lateral resistance to eliminate the need for conventional concrete foundation walls and spread footings. The construction of the concrete pad footings and wood stud walls were prefabricated offsite and delivered to the site.
