How to build a house from a pinned log

A wooden house from a rounded log is several times warmer than brick. Even with closed windows, fresh air comes into it. The undoubted advantage is the appearance of the walls, which does not require trim. Installation work will not cause you difficulties.

So that the wooden house served you for many years without any problems, it is very important to carefully select the material. It is worth preferring the coniferous rocks of trees. The logs must be smooth, without cracks and have a yellowish tint. The core of the rounded log must be in the middle of the cut. Purchase logs only from the supplier, which produces wood cutting and specialized drying.

Choose a smooth and dry area for building a house. In close proximity to position all the necessary materials. The process of construction of the house is better to spend in winter when the humidity level is the lowest. The foundation is laid before frosts.

The wooden house is relatively easy, so it is enough to lay a ribbon foundation. Peers are installed in the alleged corners of the house. On the perimeter there is a pometer of a depth of 1 m for the foundation. A wooden formwork with struts for strength is placed in the pit. Inside the formwork is mounted frame made of reinforced grid. For ventilation in the foundation, holes are made - produced using a piece of log wrapped with rubberoid. After filling cement, the logs carefully pull out.

The foundation is frozen and dials the strength of one month. On top of the foundation, the rolled waterproofing layer is placed - rubberoid or glazing. At the beginning, supporting beams are stacked, which are recorded by reinforcement pins and are lubricated by bitumen. Thermal plums are installed on top. For the walls during operation on the battery, you need to make a groove in each log. For greater strength, the logs are fixed with metal brackets.

Observe the assembly sequence - each new layer begins with laying parallel logs. Over time, the logs will give a shrinkage and the gap will inevitably appear, so laying the logs, do not forget to fix the insulation between them. The process proceeds pretty quickly and reminds the assembly of the children's designer.

At the installation stage of the supporting beams, it is worth taking care of the floor arrangement. To do this, with the help of chainsaws, the groove is made, processed by an antiseptic and the floor beam is stacked. Under the beams create supports of brick or stone. In this case, the floor will withstand heavy loads. On top of the supports are attached wooden boards.

Completes the process of building a wooden house - the construction of the roof. To begin with, the rafter design is attached to the last wint of the logs. Then the heat-insulating layer is paired and the lattice frame is installed. The roofing material is laid on top.

Build a house can be pretty quickly, but you can start finishing work one year later. This may be unacceptable for many. And those who decide on this simple, but a long process will be able to enjoy an environmentally friendly home for many years.
