Today many dream to live in own house. Construction of the house usually demands big financial expenses, takes away a lot of time and forces. Therefore more and more people choose frame housing construction which allows for short term and rather cheap build the house, completely ready for life.
Preparation for construction
It is worth beginning construction of the house with the project. You can address to specialized firm or download the ready drawing on the Internet, but without it it is better not to get to work — it will help you to avoid mistakes. Make the estimate on materials and works — it will allow you to plan expenses and to keep within the available budget.
The frame house, as well as most of others, needs the base. Houses of this kind have undoubted advantage — rather small weight. It reduces requirements to the base, simplifies works on its creation and expands the choice of possible options. It can be screw piles, ready concrete blocks or plates, continuous footing. The choice of specific type of the basis depends on soil on the site and your preferences.
Construction of framework
Creation of space framework needs to be begun with production of the lower binding which forms the basis for walls. The bar having the section of 150х150 mm or 150х200 mm is applied to its production. It is impossible to stack it directly on concrete — it is necessary to use linings from roofing material, otherwise the tree can decay. There will be no wood processing superfluous and the special impregnation preventing its destruction. The bar needs to be fixed on the base by means of anchors. The following step — construction of vertical racks of framework. It is necessary to begin this work with corners of future house, using bar of the same section, as for the lower binding. Intermediate racks are established by trace. They have to be in one plane with angular bars. Do not forget to control vertical position of installation of elements by means of plumb or laser level. The spacing of joists has to make from half a meter to meter, depending on the sizes of heater and sheets of covering. It is possible to connect wood beams as by means of cuttings, and metal plates and squares. The second way is more preferable — it considerably simplifies work, saves time and increases structural strength. Creation of the main framework comes to the end with assembly of the top binding and power roof units then window and door openings are constructed.
Warming and covering of the house
If you want to accelerate construction of the frame house, it is possible to use ready elements — sandwich panels, or HOARSED. They consist of the sheets OSB fastened among themselves between which the expanded polystyrene playing heater role is laid. Assembly of the house from such panels is expedited and simply — to attach them to framework enough then only finishing work is required. The main shortcomings — the high price and only one kind of heater. If you want to save, better to collect walls independently. You need material for covering, heater and paroizolyatsionny membrane. Most often the framework is sheathed OSB plates, plywood or CSP, and warmed mineral wool. The operations procedure can be the following. The house is sheathed by OSB plates from within then on them from the street the paroizoliruyushchy membrane is fixed. Over it plates of mineral wool keep within. The space between vertical racks has to be slightly less than width of mineral-cotton mats — they have to enter with effort, without slots there. Having filled thickness of wall with heater, it is closed wind-shelter material and sheathe framework outside plates of OSB.Posle of it it is possible to start creation of overlappings, the device of roof and decorative finishing inside and outside. Laying of communications can be executed at various stages of construction. Quite often the electrics, water supply system and heating are hidden in walls at stage of their assembly.
