The cost of profiled timber: the pricing and cost of the
How much does the cost of profiled timber affect the final choice of material, the total estimate for the construction of a log house? Indeed, besides the wood itself, there is still a lot of work to be taken into account.
This question can be considered from the point of view of integrated counting, which will take into account all the nuances of construction.

Cost estimate

Timber house, in terms of drawing up a general estimate is no different from any other construction options. Here is also the calculation of major and minor costs.
The main ones include:
- Project cost.
- Estimated on the foundation.
- Consumption for material, timber.
- Roof consumption.
By secondary include:
- Finish Materials, work, if there are hired builders.
- Communications, plumbing, sewage, electricity, gas, heating system.
If we talk about the percentage, it looks like this:
- The foundation is 20%.
- Box - 50.
- Roof – 40%.
Note! Any estimate can be minimized by a rational approach and independent construction, the work of builders can go up to 50% of the total expenditure.
Walls
To calculate the cost of a house from a profiled bar, you can begin calculations with the cost of the box, and here you will need the price of the bar.
Note! Starting from the box, it is possible to determine the basic costs, on the basis of which it will be possible to make a decision about the foundation and the roof for the house from a bar. Here everything is interconnected.
The price of profiled timber on average fluctuates at the level of 7800-8000 rubles per cubic meter. Now it remains to calculate the cubic capacity, which will go to the house, and we can talk about the number of the "box".
To do this, you can make calculations on a simple example of a single-storey house 8x8:

- Selected timber section 150x150 mm.
- The height of the walls is 3 meters.
- Perimeter - 32 meters.
- It turns out, 14.4 cubes.
Given that the average price is 8,000 rubles per cubic meter, it turns out that the box of the first floor of a log house can cost 115,000 rubles.
Note! This is the cost of the material itself, without regard to fasteners, dowels, work, if any, be carried out by a professional brigade.
Using this calculation as an example, you can calculate the cost for any building, the cubic capacity is calculated in the same way.
Of course, there may be a question about openings, window and door, because they occupy part of the walls. For the exact output of the cubic capacity of the box, window and door openings are subtracted from the total figure, but any building material is always purchased 15% more than necessary, in case of unforeseen expenses. Therefore, the total cubic capacity may remain unchanged, because the openings are these 15-20%.

Reason
Any instruction for construction, any project contains a foundation, without which it is simply impossible to build anything. However, it is also a serious financial expenditure.
Moreover, you can note what they depend on:
- Soil condition. Some soils can "dictate" their conditions for the base, and if this is, for example, swampy soil, you will have to drive piles to a certain depth.
- The volume of concrete.
- Sections and quantities of reinforcement.
Returning to the 8x8 example shown at home, you can calculate by two types of simple bases: tape and screw.
The strip foundation is calculated as follows:
- Excavation, excavation, excavator rental.
- Fittings.
- Concrete, you can count the cost of each component, or order a mixer right away.
- Formwork

On average, the cost of concrete in a mixer is 2000 rubles per cube, and if you knead it yourself with your own hands, you can reach a figure of 1000-1200 rubles. Savings of almost 50%.
So, for an 8x8 house, which is taken as an example, you will need:
- Trenches 32 meters long, 1.2 meters deep and 0.4 meters wide. 15.26 cubes of concrete = 30,000 rubles in a mixer, or 15,000 independent kneading.
- The reinforcement, on the basis of 70 kg per 1 cubic meter of concrete, is approximately a ton = 25,000 rubles
The result - 40-55 thousand rubles the price of the foundation.
Now it is possible to sum up certain intermediate results. It turns out that together with the box and the foundation, the construction of a log house will cost about 150,000 thousand rubles.
Screw option. Here the calculation is based on the value of the pile. As a rule, it is at the level from 1000 to 2000 rubles for one piece. It is possible for the average to take the price of 1500 p.
The house 8x8 will require:
- 4 pieces in the corners.
- One piece every 2 meters, that is, on one side 4 pieces and of that 16 for the entire perimeter.
- At least 10 pieces on the inside.

The result, about 26 piles = 39 000 rubles.
In principle, we can talk about savings, in comparison with the tape variant of the foundation. Naturally, the cost of assembling a house from a profiled beam should suggest a rational approach, and in this case it is necessary to clearly approach the question of choosing a base. On the foundation, saving is definitely not necessary.
So far, for an approximate one-storey house of 8x8, the price remains at 150 thousand rubles, this is without a roof.
Roof
Roof рассчитывается, исходя из скатности и квадратуры. Здесь стоит пояснить, чем больше скатов у кровли, тем сложнее ее монтировать. В результате придется обращаться в строительные фирмы и смета строительства моментально увеличится.

Roof состоит из нескольких необходимых материалов, которые можно отобразить и посчитать:
- Rafters. As a rule, it is a timber of 100x50 mm.
- Bar for lathing, 50x50 mm.
- Insulation, mineral wool.
- Waterproofing film.
- Roofing material.
Without a doubt, you can build a roof on your own, and the price of such construction will be financially very attractive.
However, the roof can be faced with several difficulties:
- Ability to work with certain tools and computing devices.
- Accurate determination of the angle of inclination of the roof.
- Proper and thorough waterproofing.
- Mandatory aeration of the roof.
At first glance, it seems that all these moments can be performed by yourself, however, any mistake in working with the roof will lead to serious consequences.
- Firstly, it is almost impossible to determine where there is a leak. That is, in case of a problem, you will have to remove part of the roof.
- Secondly, any leakage is a potential process of decay in the roof and walls.
It turns out that the most rational decision on the roof will be the purchase of material and the work of the construction company, roofers.
Next you need to choose a roofing material. That he will be the most expensive part of the roof. On average, metal, or bituminous roofs are at the level of 300 rubles per square meter.
In order not to go into the calculations, this price will be taken as the average. It remains to calculate the square roof, the amount of material that is required for the roof system.
Considering that at the beginning of the article approximate figures were given on the basis of estimates, we can say that the roof for an 8x8 house will be approximately 60-70 thousand rubles.

Conclusion
Only the foundation, the box and the roof showed a figure of 210,000 rubles, and in fact the calculation of the cost of a house from a profiled bar, it is also indirect indicators.
Accordingly, it can be summed up that all construction is quietly divided into what it makes sense to do independently:
- Foundation.
- The box.
- The first finish, polishing, painting.
And for what it will be necessary to hire specialists:
- Fine finish.
- Roof.
- The supply of communications.
- Installation of heating systems.

However, for a log house, the main point in any case remains the price of a profiled bar, which forms the basis of all construction. And the video in this article clearly explains the topic of the article, see!
