How to construct wooden felling

Construction of building constructions from wood, as a rule, costs significantly cheaper, than construction of the brick house. The basis of such construction is formed by the wooden felling made of the barked logs. Despite simplicity of design, construction of felling demands certain skill and skills of work with the carpenter's tool.

It is required to you

  • - logs;
  • - chainsaw;
  • - axe;
  • - chisel;
  • - hammer;
  • - construction level;
  • - metal brackets;
  • - tow;
  • - welder's gloves;
  • - workmate.

Instruction

1. Prepare material for construction of felling. Logs have to be qualitative and free of defects. Most the pine and fir-tree which do not crack from time are suitable for felling and are afraid of water less. At all the birch inclined to fast rotting is not suitable for felling. It is the best of all to carry out preparation of logs to autumn time.

2. Understand for yourself as the ready felling will look. It consists of number of wreaths (levels) which quantity depends on height of the house or other construction for which the felling is intended. The wreath includes four logs laid horizontally in the form of rectangle. The lower wreath is called sole, it strengthens the lower binding and protects it from rotting. The second timber work is called the lower binding and serves for incision of plank beds which will bear floor.

3. Start drawing up felling. Lay two logs on horizontal surface in parallel each other. Across them at right angle arrange two other logs. Any log has uneven thickness longwise, root part (butt) is slightly thicker than topmost. When laying alternate among themselves koml and tops of logs.

4. Laid in one number of log (wreath) consistently connect on corners by means of lock connections. For this purpose in edge part of each log make dredging on half of depth that the ends of logs entered each other. Wood dredging is traditionally made the carpenter's axe. After construction of the first wreath fasten it with metal brackets from within and you pass to construction of the next wreath.

5. Use for construction of upper parts of design of felling cabin method with the subsequent turn. Sort separate parts of felling after production on the earth and shift to the main design. Such turn will allow you to avoid dangerous and inconvenient work as the axe at considerable height. The extra time demanded at such method with interest pays off safety of work.

6. If you do felling of the rounded logs, then trim intervals between separate wreaths after creation of all design with rolled tow. Over places where door and window openings will be located further, leave gaps not less than 100 mm counting upon the fact that after a while the felling will shrink. Apertures in ready felling do by means of the chainsaw.

7. Having aggregated felling, leave it approximately for year. During this time logs completely will dry and will shrink. Now felling it is possible to caulk, grind more carefully logs, to mount roof, windows and doors. If you want to transport felling to other place, number each log at face, having specified number of wreath. After that sort felling and move on the ready base.
