ABSTRACT:
A window is secured within a window opening in a log wall for vertical movement within the opening and relative to the wall to compensate for wall settlement. Connecting members are at least partially disposed within the opening and between the jamb members which comprise the window frame and the logs which define vertically disposed sides of the opening. The connecting members are secured in fixed position to the window frame and have vertical slots which receive fasteners which secure the connecting members to the logs which define the sides of the opening to facilitate vertical movement of the window within the opening and relative to the wall. Another embodiment is disclosed wherein connecting members secured in fixed position to the window frame are received within vertical slots formed within the logs which define the sides of the window opening.
