Log beam 45° is the steep rafter of the Log Structures range in the Supports tab, a single split log cut on the sharper of Valheim's two roof pitches. Builders run them up under a matching roof or drive them in as braces, because Corewood holds a load better than any other timber the hammer offers.

How to Build It


Each beam costs one Corewood, and you place it and later repair it inside a Workbench's range, which makes angled log framing about the cheapest structure in the game. The pitch is what catches people out: a forty five degree beam only meets forty five degree walls and roofing, so pick an angle before the first rafter goes down and hold the whole roof to it.
