How to build the brick house

The brick house is construction, strong and highly protected from the fire, but its walls have high heat conductivity, it attracts need to do them thick and to equip the base of deep underlay. The listed factors increase costs of construction, despite this, the brick remains the most popular construction material.

If you wish to make compromise of the price and quality, walls of the house can be laid in half of keramzitny brick, thus, thickness of walls will be equal to 20 cm. And here in order that construction was warm, it should be sheathed heater as which it is possible to use polyfoam. It will allow to lower expenses on construction that is caused by smaller costs of concrete of the base and reduction of quantity of brick twice. Labor costs will be not so big too, as well as the spent time.

Construction of the base

Most often, for brick the house applies continuous footing. For its construction it is necessary to clear away the site, to take layer of the turf and to mark the territory for the basis. The sizes of trench have to be 1.5-2 m more than final dimensions of the base that will be necessary for arrangement of timbering. The bottom of trench has to be leveled, spilled by water and is powdered with mix from gravel and sand, thickness of such pillow has to be equal to 200 mm. Then the surface should be stamped the vibrating plate, to cover with waterproofing and to fill in with "lean" concrete. For ensuring isolation of sole of the basis it is necessary to lay roofing material on bottom, having removed its edges upward.

Further it is possible to create prefabricated reinforcement cage for what it is necessary to use rods with thickness in 6-10 mm. After cutting armature should be welded among themselves and to lower in trench on props from stone. For installation of timbering it is necessary to use wooden boards 50 mm thick, they have to be recorded by struts, later it is necessary to check vertical position of walls. Base height above the ground has to be 40 cm. Now it is possible to start underpouring that it is necessary to carry out layer-by-layer 20 cm. After concrete gains durability, it is possible to get rid of timbering and to make base waterproofing where it is recommended to use coating or rolled materials, then it is possible to make basis charge.

House wall construction

It is necessary to cover with bed from solution the basis, further mix needs to be leveled trowel. After laying the brick needs to be taped the trowel handle. It is necessary to get rid of surplus of solution after mounting of each product. The horizontal position of row should be checked level, and the laying can be carried out on plumb. For arrangement of door and window openings in certain place of wall it is necessary to lay crossing points which can be wooden or reinforced concrete. It is possible to fix frames anchor bolts and foam.

Assembly of roof

As soon as walls are ready, it is possible to lay on them on perimeter board which section is equal to 50×150 mm. Fixture should be made anchor bolts in 220 mm, through 2 bricks, driving them into seams between products. The tightness between wall and board will be provided by polyurethane foam. Further with step to 1 m it is possible to lay ceiling beams which section is equal to 50×150 mm. On the central wall it is necessary to establish columns (100×100 mm) on which the ridge board has to fasten, later it is possible to fix roof logs. On the last it is necessary to beat bars (50×50 mm) for slate fixing.
