Cost of a bar 50ั 50 - we analyze in detail
Wooden timber 50x50 mm, is considered the most common. It is for this reason that the question is so topical, what is the cost of a 50x50 bar, what does it depend on, and what factors influence it.
To begin with, we note that this product, in most cases, is made from softwood. This article, to some extent, can serve as an instruction for the convenience of determining the cost of a timber of a given section.

How to properly classify
The fact is that it will not be entirely correct to call the section 50 50 bar. Understand how to call this product is crucial, since when ordering material you may have lining (read also the article The cost of a bar 200 by 200 - features costing).
In order to solve this problem, we turn to GOST 8486-86, in which it is clearly stated that a cross section of 100 mm and more can be considered a bar. All other small sections refer either to the bars or to the boards. In other words, a cross section of 50 50 can be called bar.

Production and types of timber
In production, planed timber and edged are most shared.
- The planed product, for the most part, has a clean application. It is used in the manufacture of furniture, it is good to build gazebos, arches, and beautiful staircases are also obtained. In general, wherever you need a beautiful appearance and accurate dimensions are important. But the cost per meter of timber 50x50 planed will be much higher.
- A cut tree, often used as a log, they trim the walls of the house, it is well suited as a batten, etc. Where appearance does not play a greater role.

But here there are small subtleties the cost of a bar 50x50, may vary depending on the processing. Bars can be processed on 4, 3 and 2 sides. You, as the customer should, decide for what, you need this product.
So, let's say if you build a house, you can take a timber, processed from 3 or 2 sides. As a result, you get the outer or outer and inner side of the house of a natural, natural log view. And the cost of work on the timber will cost you less.

Pros and cons of timber
There is no completely perfect material in nature. Similarly, the 50x50 section has its own, relatively, positive and negative sides.
Positive sides
- As mentioned earlier, the product is mostly made from softwood. And the smell of pine needles is very useful for humans. It is not for nothing that doctors advise more walking through the coniferous forest. You get not only durable, but also a useful home.
- Dry wood, after shrinking at home, can compete in strength with a brick.
- It is pleasant to build from a high-quality processed timber, since it is light, holds geometry well and practically does not lead.
- If at the end of the construction process the wood with a special solution, fire resistance will increase significantly.
- The processed tree, well keeps the size, as a result, upon completion of construction there is no need for additional facing works.
- Coniferous resin is a natural preservative and therefore the house is protected from rotting.
Let's talk about cons
- Since the material at the preparation stage does not undergo special treatment with chemical solutions, after laying it is necessary to take into account the natural shrinkage.
- Shrinkage of a wooden house can reach up to 2 years, so the final, finishing should be started only after shrinkage.
- Any natural wood has the possibility of cracking during the drying process.
- Drying should be professional, in violation of technology, the geometry will be irretrievably lost.
- The cost of a wooden bar 50x50 after drying and additional processing significantly increases.

Cost and price factors
The price of any product may vary depending on various factors. Regarding the bar, if you take the budget option, it is more suitable pruned tree. Especially, if you freely communicate with carpentry tools, you will be able to bring it to the ideal with your own hands.
Important: when you buy the material, try to take wood harvested in the winter, it is simply determined, the side cut will be light and if you drop iodine, the tree will begin to turn blue.
Production processing of wood also affects its price. The table shows the average prices.

Pine, spruce | Not processed | Dried | 8000-9000 RUB |
Natural moisture | 7000-8000 Rt. | ||
Processed | Dried | 14000-15000 Rt. | |

Natural moisture | 14000-15000 Rt. |
The cost of a wooden bar 50x50, if we compare it with a large section, will be much higher. This is due to the fact that in the production of timber, much more material goes to waste.
Suppose if you compare with a section of 100x100, then the area of โโthe treated surface will be almost 4 times larger. Naturally from here and% of withdrawal is higher.
Now in the construction of houses is increasingly used imitation timber. At construction it is very convenient. The cost of imitation timber, compared with the array is much lower, and the appearance is not inferior.
Suppose if you need to warm the house outside, imitation is very well suited or for internal partitions, it will also be cheaper and more convenient.

Important: imitation of bars, in difference from an array, is well processed by special chemical compositions and therefore is more durable.
If you do not need large volumes, for convenience, we present you a table in which the cost of a meter of running bar 50x50 is indicated.
Bar price 50 50 | |||
Processing level | Price for punch | Price per meter | |
Trimming material | 2 mp | 34 rub. | 15-20 rubles |
3 mp | 52 rub. | ||
6 mp | 99 rub. | ||
Planed material | 2 mp | 72 rub. | 35-40 rub. |
3 mp | 115 rub. | ||
6 mp | 225 rub. |
Conclusion

The product of this section is quite convenient and relatively inexpensive material. Due to its versatility, when used in the construction of timber almost has no waste.
