Russian term

сруб стоит на бересте

Russian to English Other Tourism & Travel banya specific terminology
It's about the Russian banya. I am not quite sure on the terminology. Does сруб refer to the banya hut itself or some part of the frame? Also, I think бересте here could be either from берёста (birch bark) or берёст (elm).

The logs are isolated from the stone foundation by birch bark

Log houses rest on a stone foundation, the logs being (in this case) isolated from the foundation by birchbark
Note from asker:
Thanks for your answer, but please note that it is not about a log house with stones, it's about a Russian banya. There are no stones.

agree Boris Shapiro : The stones belong to the foundation. Even a banya needs one, and a stone foundation does not make it a half timber or something.

log house stands on birch bark

Если захотите использовать технологии наших предков, то вместо рулонной гидроизоляции можно использовать бересту (березовую кору) http://srubnbrus.com/84.html

I think it is not about house, it is about the log structure which is waterproofed by birch bark.
