House project from a bar with a garage: tips and tricks

Building

The bar is considered to be one of the most popular building materials. It is used to create floors and ceilings, roofs and small buildings, as well as for the construction of individual products or independent structural forms.

In this case, special attention should be paid to the projects of the house from a bar with a garage, since this is where this material is used most.

Manufacturing sequence

First of all, it should be noted that the project implies a detailed plan for the construction of the entire building, starting from its foundation and ending with the roof. In this case, it takes into account the strength of all materials, their technical characteristics, interaction with each other and methods of installation. That is why making a project for a house with a bar with a garage is necessary in stages, considering each type of work as a separate item.

Foundation

Determining the specific type of foundation for such structures is a rather complicated issue. The fact is that many masters believe that buildings from a timber do not have a large load; they do not need to have a solid foundation with a large depth. However, there are such projects of two-storey houses from a bar with a garage, which by their weight can surpass even concrete structures.

That is why experts believe that to create a large residential building with several floors, it is best to use a foundation that will be buried below the freezing point. For small buildings, you can use shallow base, and for baths and outbuildings, even ordinary slabs or piles are enough.

Tip! If a column foundation is chosen for small buildings, then it is mandatory to protect it from moisture with a layer of plaster and bitumen. This will increase its service life.

Creating a house project of glued timber with a garage, quite often you have to deal with such a concept as a crown. Them builders designate one row of laying logs.

It should be noted that in the project it is necessary to note some features of this type of installation.

First of all, the rows located closer to the foundation should be treated with special impregnation. It will protect the tree from moisture and prolong its life. (See also the article Processing of timber from rotting - the key to long-term operation of the building)
Particular attention should be paid to the end and corner joints. The fact is that a typical project involves the use of a joint with a comb, but since there are several varieties of bars, then there are quite a few options for such execution.

It is also necessary to take into account the fact that between the crowns it is necessary to place a layer of tow. Some craftsmen, making one-story houses from a bar with a garage, use a special roll material that is folded four times. However, to save material, two layers are enough.
The tow is also used in the installation of joints, since it protects the finished product from the wind and makes the connection more dense.
To connect the timber in the rows and at the corners, metal brackets are used, which are driven into the upper part of the material. Such a node must also be displayed on the project.

The arrangement of the bandaging of the crowns between them is done by making vertical holes in the bars, and then installing wooden splints in them. It should be noted that a typical project of a house from a timber 8x8 with a garage involves placing these types of connections in a staggered manner so as not to weaken the structure and at the same time ensure reliable ligation.

Tip! Modern impregnations and protective materials usually do not have a characteristic color, which makes it difficult to determine the processed material from ordinary bars. Therefore, experts add to them a little stain, which stains the composition and simplifies the work.

Roof

A typical project of a two-story house with a garage out of a timber suggests that the roof will be made of the same material. However, its coverage is a matter of personal preference and taste.

However, for general savings, it is best to use a profiled sheet of metal, which, thanks to modern technologies, not only has excellent technical characteristics and low price, but also a good appearance.

First you need to note on the project the location of the rafters and their method of installation. The same brackets can be used as fasteners as for the construction of walls, but nails can be used in addition to them.
Также нужно заранее продумать размещение балок перекрытия из бруса для организации потолка. При этом брусовые одноэтажные дома с гаражом не сильно отличаются от двухэтажных проектов в данном процессе, поскольку предполагают такой же тип установки с использованием соединения «ласточкин хвост».
Дальнейшая конструкция крыши зависит от ее особенностей и вида, но она обязательно должна зашиваться доской. Это не только поможет при дальнейшем монтаже покрытия, но и позволит конструкции «дышать», что очень важно при теплообмене.

Tip! When installing the roof must comply with safety when working at height. This will prevent injury.

Waterproofing

A typical project of a one-story house of timber with a garage must be compiled with all the elements of waterproofing.

First of all, the structure must be protected from moisture from below. To do this, lay a layer of roofing material on the foundation, which is additionally covered with bitumen.
Impregnation of the crowns of the timber is made from all its sides and is up to 5 rows. However, to improve reliability, it is fashionable to process all the material.

Roofing material can be an excellent insulator.

Special attention is paid to the roof. Before its coating it is necessary to install a layer of roofing material or a special insulator to protect against moisture. Also on the roof after insulation put a vapor barrier that prevents the appearance of condensation.

Tip! Currently, it is fashionable to purchase modern compounds in the building materials markets, which are much more efficient than old insulators. Their use will significantly improve the quality of construction and facilitate the installation process.

Heater

Creating a house project with your own hands, you need to think in advance about the system of its protection from the cold. For this there are a huge number of different materials that have certain properties and method of installation.

It is believed that, ideally, the insulation should be external. Since this method of installation reduces the risk of condensation, and hence the appearance of mold and mildew.

However, creating a house from a bar, some designers suggest the use of material that is processed from both sides. This is due to the fact that its price is a bit lower and it has a rather good appearance, and the finished product resembles a log cabin. Therefore, for such structures of log houses, insulation is produced internally.

At the same time it is necessary to observe some installation features and be sure to install a vapor barrier. Otherwise, the condensate will reduce the life of the house, and the fungus and mold that has appeared inside the walls can lead to various diseases.

Tip! Professional masters recommend using modern types of heaters that have a liquid appearance. They have excellent characteristics and at the same time do not take space.

Communications

When creating projects, the fabrication manual recommends that individual attention be paid to communication systems. On paper, be sure to display the input to the house and the location of the main highways. You should also think in advance about the type of interior in the room and in accordance with it arrange the necessary instruments.

Tip! The power scheme of a wooden house with electricity is very important and requires special attention and compliance with safety regulations. Even the slightest violation of these requirements can lead to fire.

Conclusion

In the presented video in this article you will find additional information on this topic. Also on the basis of the text outlined above, it can be concluded that the creation of a project can be quite complex and responsible process, which may require some knowledge. However, the construction itself of such a structure is usually performed by only two workers in one season.
