Summer houses from a beam: projects and construction

In recent years, dacha houses of timber are in unprecedented demand. They are built willingly and often, because it is simple and profitable, and suburban housing is warm and comfortable. The choice of cost and configuration is very diverse, so it's easy to stay on the project that most satisfies the customer: it can be a small cottage or a large building, but in any case they can be operated year-round.

Original designs of cottage houses from the timber will be of interest to customers who prefer environmentally friendly housing, and contractors enthusiastic about new technologies for rapid construction.

Wooden beam - a natural material for a fairy-tale house

Once to maintain the evenness of the wooden walls, builders used trimming of the roundwood, and now the log is subjected to a more radical treatment with the help of modern finishing tools.

From the point of view of economy, the construction of cottages from the timber can be considered as profitable. This technology is used not only to build low-rise residential buildings and country houses, but also wooden baths and other light structures. Universal lumber allows, at the last stage of the work to be done, to carefully trim the walls with siding, lining, block house. Choose the country houses you like from the beam, photos of which are also in our article, and highly qualified specialists will come to your aid and help make the dream come true!

Construction technology

For the production of planed profiled, glued beams and rounded logs, dried floor and skin boards, wood species such as spruce and pine are used.

These types of timber are manufactured in industrial conditions. The given building material passes a full cycle of processing on high-precision machine tools, leaving the workshops with marked structural elements, ready for installation work on erecting the structure. The wall beam is produced with a different cross-section and diameter. In other words, it is brought to the construction site and is going to. Result - country houses from a bar are mounted quickly enough and easily, as a children's toy designer.

With a standard material length of 6 meters, a non-planed beam of 100x150 mm to 200x200 mm is produced, the diameter of the profiled beam varies from 90x140 to 140x140 mm.

Standard equipment for a cottage

The construction of cottage houses from the timber in standard configuration assumes:

• Columnar foundation;
• Transportation and installation of finished timber logs;
• Installation and finishing of roofing elements with high-quality materials;
• Flooring rough and clean flooring;
• Project laying of thermal insulation;
• Installation of doors, windows, stairs (with several floors) and interior partitions.

Phased construction

Before the beginning of the construction of wooden housing, the most suitable projects of country houses from the timber are selected. Customers can do this themselves, using Internet resources or relying on their own taste and imagination. And you can resort to the help of professional designers and builders who, having become acquainted with the terms of the construction site and other nuances, will offer the best options for the buildings.

When designing houses from the timber, the customer should be aware that after the first stage (erection of the frame) must pass at least six months before you can proceed to the second stage - finishing works; This is required in order to give the tree time for natural shrinkage.

When the frame is erected, work is done on the zero cycle, external and internal walls are installed, and the roof is mounted. This includes the following activities:

• Laying the foundation, the first crown, the beams of the floors, the rough floor;
• Installation of a box of the house and подстропильных beams ;
• Roof assembly;
• On the zero cycle, the foundation is laid and the lower strapping is carried out.

The foundation is usually shallow: ribbon or columnar. At this stage, the cost of the foundation is low, it will depend not on the type of the building, but on the characteristics of the soil under the base.

Next, the lower strapping, lagging, installation of the rough floor is carried out . Then there is carrying out of heat-insulation works, the device of moisture protection, sheet pile flooring.

Construction of lumber boxes

The construction of the lumber box begins with the assembly of the walls of the first floor. Then the device of internal interior partitions and intervent insulation is continued. Summer houses from profiled beams have tight joints due to the use of a joint of wooden elements by the "swallowtail" method, in which the beam does not deform as it dries.

The next stage is laid by the ceiling beams and rafters, the roof is hemmed with a lining and insulated. If there is a second floor, internal partitions can be installed at the beginning of the finishing works of the first floor.

To speed up the shrinkage of the tree, the box is made ventilated in places where the project provides doors and windows.

Completion of the first phase of construction

The last work of the first stage is the erection of the roof. To do this, put the crate, lay moisture insulation, hem the cornices and lay the roofing material. As a starting roof, we offer a galvanized corrugated sheet, but at the request of the developer we cover the coating with other materials. The choice of insulation and insulation is negotiated at the time of the conclusion of the contract.

The second stage - finishing works

After 6 months, when the shrinkage of the timber is finished, it is necessary to make the laying of engineering communications, after which it is possible to lay floors, install window glass blocks and doors. The methods of decoration and the external design of the house are chosen by the customer.

Houses made of beams profiled - prefabricated construction

One-storey dacha houses from a profiled beam are becoming increasingly popular due to the comfort of wooden housing and the economical construction. It's not for nothing that experts call a wooden beam a building material of a new generation. In fact, unlike the planed sawn timber, he uses the system "spike-groove", which allows to build the house in the shortest possible time.

Technology advantages

Of course, the construction processes are labor-intensive and require compliance with technological rules and building codes. However, the obvious advantages of inexpensive projects of wooden buildings, which include and dacha houses from the timber, are very attractive for customers:

• Saving heat. The timber house perfectly preserves the heat due to the low thermal conductivity of the wood material.
• Ecological compatibility. Natural material in the construction of housing is the key to the health and safety of the owners.
• Economical. Wooden buildings, including cottages from glued beams, during construction will save money on consumables and various types of work.

Obviously, whichever project you prefer, everything will be done in a short time, better and cheaper than if a brick, cinder block or any other non-natural material is used for construction. And in the end you will get your own environmentally friendly house from "breathing" material, which will be much cheaper than buying an apartment even in the secondary market.

A wooden house made of neatly laid timber looks natural, cozy and attractive. You can also leave the lumber with its natural beauty, just by applying on its entire surface several layers of special protective compounds. And then in fact your country house will look like a dream! It will be nice to go to the guests, and certainly live in such a house, no doubt, like all the household.
