House of timber 7x9 - transitional version
Why transitional, because it is no longer a country house, but not yet a stationary residential house, although for an average family without large requests this house is quite suitable. The use of timber and logs will speed up the assembly of the house as much as possible, the use of low-cost, but strong enough materials for other construction purposes will allow all this to gather quickly and efficiently.
And it is about this conversation in our article.

Construction stages and material selection

When deciding to build exactly 7x9 house, which can be attributed to the economy class, it is still necessary to go through all the stages of construction and select materials that will allow this dream to come true.
We will deal with this in stages and materials:
- The first stage is planning and design. Important, do not argue. Projects of houses from 7x9 m timber immediately give us a graphic representation of future buildings. Although the houses are small, using the attic or the second floor gives you the opportunity to get enough space to accommodate a full-fledged two-bedroom apartment in a two-story log house. Moreover, if in this project everything is ergonomic, then rational use of the floor space is guaranteed to you;
- Stage two - the foundation. Although the delivery of the material, its purchase and storage are important, but this, as they say, is attached in the kit, as an instruction. The role of the foundation is the support of the entire building, and we will consider this issue separately and in more detail;
- Stage three - work on the construction of the box and the tent roof. It can be said that this is the very lion's part of the work, the implementation of which will depend not only on the appearance of the structure, but also on its strength, comfortable conditions for further living. In principle, this includes work on the roof of the roof;

- The final stage - finishing work. Of course, at first, such work can not be carried out at all, but still, over time, there may be a desire for change. The final works, by the way, include the installation of windows and doors, as well as work on the weatherization of the building.
And now about them, but in more detail.
Projects are useful if

Projects are important for many reasons, if only because you initially see what you are building (on paper or in a computer version), and this can be corrected. After all, it is much more difficult to make changes in the process of work, when the foundation is set and the works are in full swing.
The project of houses from a bar of 7x9 m, in addition to the usual location and area of a room, should include:
- The choice of material and the calculation of its purchase and placement. The fact is that, for example, at home from laminated timber of 7x9 m, materials are considered to be the most expensive, but in terms of installation they are among the cheapest. Moreover, the very structure of the beam allows you to lay the timber with your own hands with the involvement of the minimum number of assistants and, by the way, do not forget about the construction details: anchor fasteners, dowels, brackets, mezhventsovym insulation - all this costs;
- Also, a project of a 7x9 m timber house should contain a calculation and specific schemes for the supply of electricity, water supply, gas (if you are building a house in a gasified area) and the drainage system;
- Warming options. Although the insulation is actually carried out when windows and doors are exposed, a stove or another type of heater for housing is assembled, namely one year after construction, but some types of materials can be made immediately for the insulation of floors, ceilings and roofs.
Interesting to know! Disputes about how fast it is possible to carry out warming do not subside, install windows and doors in houses, for the construction of which it was precisely glued timber. The reason for the dispute is banal. Houses from timber 7 by 9 m, in the construction of which glued laminated timber was used give minimal construction shrinkage, therefore some I advise you to do all these measures at once. However, we recommend not to hurry, since at least the stated 2% and not too much shrinkage, but 4%, which can also take place, can simply deform the installed windows, doors and finishing materials: paneling or drywall. This is not the case for which rush is needed.
Works with the foundation

The house from a bar 9 by 7 m does not belong to heavy structures, therefore it does not require a strong foundation.
In this case, you can go two ways:
- The first way is to buy and install metal piles with the calculation of one for each corner of the building and the docking connection and then every 2 m. Then the piles are cut and the metal channel is welded to them, which aligns the entire horizontal plane and on which all the beams will be erected ;
- The second option is homemade piles, with shallow-docking, reinforced tape.
Since the second option is the simplest, and its price is very reasonable, we will consider it:
- On the ground we carry out the layout of the future foundation for a log house with a mandatory check of the corners;
- By the principle described above, we prepare the wells to the depth of soil freezing. To do this, it is better to use the earth auger, which we excavate to a depth equal to the freezing depth plus 10-15 cm;
- Lay 10 grams of rubble and sand into the wells, which form a leveling pad;
- In the same hole we drop an iron case made of 4 parts of 50x50 mm. welded to each other so that they are several centimeters from the edge of the well;
- The docking of holes is carried out with the help of a connecting ditch with a depth on the spade bayonet and a width equal to the width of the beam plus 10-15 cm;
- We lower the reinforcement into the ditch, which fits in the same way as in the production of strip foundations by welding or wire, as well as to the piles. We form the formwork up to 25-30 cm;
- The resulting form is poured concrete mix.
From I to Yat

When laying walls, it is important to know the principles of laying, since the wall itself is typed quickly enough.
The assembly algorithm is as follows:
- Bitumen is heated to a separated basement, heated to a liquid state, and then roofing felt with a width of greater width of the foundation is 30 cm. This is done twice;
- On the puff fastened lining board impregnated with antiseptic and ebb. Themselves mounts are made anchors in a concrete base;
- Further, beams are exposed, with the obligatory laying of insulation in all joints, which are fastened together in pairs in pairs, in a checkerboard pattern;
- The skeleton device for floors and ceilings is carried out in the process of construction by beams of a smaller diameter according to the type of spike in the groove, window openings and door jambs are formed in draft form and are adjusted after the building shrinks before installing windows and doors;
- During the construction of the walls and exposed frame tent. There is nothing new here. An ordinary double-slope tent with rafters, mowells and a crate, you want more complex geometry, you can use it, but then you will reduce your living space in the attic;
- On the crate, you can use a hydro-barrier and then slate or any other roof covering. If you plan to carry out the insulation of foam sheets, it is better to do it a little later, when the windows and doors are exposed and the house is occupied. The fact is that although the rodents do not eat foam, they love to settle there, which will inevitably lead to its damage.
Finally

The house of 9x7 lumber is built and waiting for finishing, but this is a separate conversation with the exposure a year, now, the video in this article is ready to present you the whole process in dynamics.
