Frame houses become popular, as they are an excellent alternative to brick and concrete buildings. Houses with the frame base have excellent thermal insulation qualities, and their construction is much cheaper.
We also recommend reading an article on the topic – how to build a house cheaply, and now we continue:
When having some knowledge in construction technology, you can even independently carry out phased construction of a frame house with your own hands.
Choice and foundation device
Lightened foundation options are suitable for frame houses. The most optimal belt reinforced concrete foundation is considered. In general, concrete is gaining strength within 28 days, but after 7 you can start work on assembling the frame, this is quite safe. Often when pouring a grillage, an anchor is laid, on which the beam of the lower binding will then be attached.
Installation of the lower strapping
Before laying the lower binding, roofing material is laid on the grillage. The bars are joined by sampling at the corners, and are connected by nails or nagas. The most popular samples are half a tree and in a paw. The beam is fastened both with each other and with the foundation. This is done in several ways.
• If an anchor was provided when filling the foundation, then a hole is drilled in the bar in the places where the studs will be located.
• The beam can also be attached to the foundation with anchor bolts.
The beam is fixed using bolts with wide washers. Wasis are needed, no matter what the bolt crashes into the wood and eventually does not drown in it, thereby weakening the mount. After attaching the lower binding, proceed to the installation of frame vertical racks, having previously cut the grooves for them in a strapping.
First, corner stands are exhibited, then the rest. All racks are fixed with temporary ugsins. The strapping at the top is mounted symmetrically with the lower. All racks to the strapping are attached with nails or self -tapping screws. Когда каркас готов, его выставляют по уровню, и все стойки фиксируются постоянными укосинами.
Ceiling and roofing device
The construction of the ceiling begins with the installation of ceiling beams that rest on the upper strapping. For this, a groove is cut in the beam. Ceiling beams are attached with nails or self -tapping screws.
Roofing work begins with the device of the rafter system. The main thing is to properly set the skate beam, then the rest of the system will be easy to mount. The rafters are attached to the ridge with metal corners using self -tapping screws. The crate is attached to the rafters. Next, the roofing material is attached.
Insulation, decoration, communications
The house is insulated by means of mineral wool, which is laid between the frame boards. Inside, a vapor barrier is attached to the frame, and the walls are sewn up with OSB slabs. For walls on the outside, you can use various material (siding, OSB, profiled sheets, lining, etc.).
All communications should be located in the wall cavities and ceilings.
It takes only a few months to arrange a frame house and its cost is one of the lowest to date.
