Construction of any house can cause many difficulties and questions. One of such is arrangement of pediments and their covering. The pediment is part of roof which is not busy with roofing covering and is located between two slopes of roof on each side and eaves at the basis.
To sheathe pediments of wooden house, material on racks and covering is required. Bars of 100*100 mm or board of 150*50 mm will be suitable for racks in case the roof demands warming and creation of premises there. Racks establish vertically at distance no more than 1 m from each other. In the middle of pediment the place for window which will not be closed up further by material is allocated. The small window of 60*60 cm in size will be suitable for roof without warming. For premises in pediment do windows proceeding from floorage (from 1/6 to 1/8 parts of floorage).
Racks for covering attach the lower part to house foot, and top - to the extreme stropilena of roof, by means of normal nails of 120 mm or self-tapping screws 90 mm long. If the top log in house foot round, then in it small platforms for installation of racks of pediment become. That its all basis was equal, from one slope of roof to another on the lower part of extreme stropilina pull to lace. After installation of all racks the vertical site which needs to be sheathed material turns out. If the attic-floor room is warmed, then at first on them attach paroizolyatsionny membrane for protection of heater against external moisture.
Material for covering of pediment of wooden house can be chosen any: eaves board and a quarter, imitation of bar, block house, lining, siding of different type. In simple country houses use also normal eaves boards with use of splats. Each owner himself chooses to himself optimal variant, proceeding from means and opportunities.
Boards or siding sew to vertical racks of pediment of wooden house horizontally by means of self-tapping screws or nails (it depends on type of material). If the siding is used, then it is necessary to establish at the edges and in the middle (if big pediment) slide guides. In certain cases under siding the pediment is sheathed at first eaves roofing boards.
In places of contact of sewing material and the roof the corner is formed. Therefore edges of boards notch at an angle which corresponds to pitch of roof. For trimming of boards use hacksaw, the chainsaw or trimming saw. Pediments on wooden house sheathe first of all, and then pass to inclined eaves of slopes of roof. Insert wooden or plastic window of the necessary size into window opening.
All wooden surfaces of pediment have to undergo antiseptization and processing by protective and colourful materials. Spraying by anti-septic tank is carried out when boards have not been used in work yet. And here it is better to do painting of pediment at the last minute. Now there is set of paints and varnishes which not only will give to your house necessary color, but also will reliably protect wood from influence of the external environment and various wreckers.
