Designing a house from a bar, how to implement it on your

Many site owners are concerned about the question of how to design a house from a bar so as not to miss anything. If you plan to build a large building, then this work is best entrusted to professionals. When it is necessary to build a small country house or a cottage with an area of ​​up to 100 m ?, the project can be made independently.

What to take into account before designing

First, decide what type of timber you will build a house.

Important points of planning

• At a relatively low price, the houses of the bar are quite beautiful. Modern varieties of this lumber - profiled and glued laminated timber. They are not deformed under heavy loads. The buildings of them are built quickly, have environmental cleanliness, durability, durability and warmth. Therefore, the optimal solution is to choose such a bar.
• Next, determine the location for the house. In all suburban settlements, garden and cottage partnerships are allocated space for construction, called the "red line". Usually, it passes 5 meters from the front boundary line of the site to the building facades and 3 meters from the side parts of your territory to the walls of the building.

Note! It is important to correctly position the windows of the future construction. Most of them should not be directed north and northwest. Otherwise, cold winds will blow through the windows.

• Think about the layout of the rooms. Premises intended for elderly family members are best placed on the ground floor. So they will have to use the stairs to a minimum. Children's rooms need to be equipped near the parent’s bedroom.
• Draw your own hands on the plan such an arrangement of bedrooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom and other rooms, so that you and your family feel as comfortable as possible.
• Calculate exactly the number of rooms you need. It is advisable to plan for one room more, so that in the future there is no shortage of space. The attic is better to do more, so if necessary it can be converted into a living room.

Factors undesirable when planning a house

1. It is recommended that the water intake points and the sewer risers be located in the same place. So the price of installation and operation of engineering communications will be significantly reduced. Long sewer lines quickly become clogged. In the long hot water supply water cools rapidly. The best option when the water heater is located next to the kitchen and bathroom.
2. You should not purchase windows of various sizes and place them with access to the roadway. Otherwise the rooms will be noisy.
3. The most reliable heating - water type. You can add it to the stove or fireplace.

Drafting

Before you design the house from a timber yourself, you need to solve the following tasks.

1. Plan the first and second floor (attic).
2. Think about the cross section of the building: the height of the basement, windows, ceilings, attic, etc.
3. To decide on a cottage construction from a bar. It must be durable, all its elements must be securely fixed and connected to each other.
4. Think over the design of the building. It should be harmonious and beautiful.
5. Calculate the bearing capacity of the foundation, beams and walls. Take care to evenly distribute the loads.
6. Cutting timber should be economical. The length of the walls, as a rule, is different from the standard length of beams of 6/7 m. Think about where their trimming will go. For example, they can be used in cuts, between window openings, etc.
7. Calculate the effect of shrinkage of the walls on the roof, mounting rafters, etc.

Stages of project creation

1. Make a list of the necessary premises. For example, it might look like this.

Ground floor:

• senny or tambourine;
• hall or hallway;
• bathroom;
• living room;
• kitchen;
• boiler room;
• bedroom.

Second or attic floor log houses:

• hall;
• bathroom;
• bedroom.

1. Arrange the rooms in the building in the best possible way. For example, the windows of the kitchen and living room should face south. Boiler room, place near the vestibule and bathroom. The bathroom is best located next to the bedroom.
2. Calculate the stairs and determine how much space will be needed for it.
3. Draw or print ground floor and attic drawings.

1. Make a layout of the beams for the ceilings of the building and a log for the floors. The pitch between the axes of the beams and the lag should be 85 cm. At such intervals, the ceilings will have an aesthetic appearance, and the logs will have a good bearing capacity. On such a frame, you can lay boards having a thickness of 3.5 / 4.5 cm, without fear that they will sag.
2. Determine the height to the ceiling beams. The optimal parameter, in this case, is 2.7 / 2.8 m.
3. Then, when designing houses from a bar, drawings of wall development are made.
4. Further, the instruction requires considering the arising loads on the log house. It should be noted that when the beams or walls are overloaded, they can be deformed.
5. When planning the height of the openings of doors and windows, trusses, remember sitting walls. It, depending on the type of timber, can be from 1% to 5 of the original height of the log house.
6. Then the roof of the house is designed.
7. The last to be drawn up are drawings and schemes of engineering communications of the building.

Conclusion

Take it extremely seriously to the design and layout of your log house. Errors in it should not be allowed. Otherwise, you can spend a lot more money on your house than planned. The worst option would be the destruction of the building. In the presented video in this article you will find additional information on this topic.
