Keywords Connected with the Dimensions of a Log

The LOGHOUSE setup file may contain the following keywords connected with the dimensions of a log.

max_log_length

The maximum length of a log. For example:

max_log_length= 6000.

When you close the log work drawing, the program warns you about the logs exceeding the maximum length, but the logs are not cut.

First, remove the keyword defining the length distribution of logs, see Keywords Connected with the Automatic Cutting of Logs.

min_clip_hgt_for_notch

If a below notch is to be automatically added to a log, the crossing wall must cut the log with this minimum dimension. For example:

min_clip_hgt_for_notch= NET_HEIGHT/3

where NET_HEIGHT is the log riser defined in the profile library.

min_log_length

The directive minimum length of a log. The minimum length is used to prevent short logs from being generated, for example between two openings that are close to each other.

min_log_thickness_cut

The minimum thickness of a notched log at an opening. If the thickness is under the minimum, the log is cut entirely at the opening.
