Building a cabins of sandwich panels with their own hands

Module buildings from sandwich panels are used for different purposes.

They are suitable and as a temporary shelter, for example, for workers, and as a small pantry in the country.

There are often cases when buying a suburban area, it still does not have any buildings, and live somewhere you need.

Such cabins can be an excellent way out for such a case, because even without the special construction experience they can be assembled by themselves.

Some people use such buildings for years as a budget option for a holiday house. Such dismountable cabins can serve as a storage room, a workshop or even a bath.

Due to its cheapness and availability today there are folding structures. The cheapest and easiest to install with their own hands are prefabricated panel structures.

However, such a hut, whether it will be sheathed with plastic panels, metal or wooden, should always have a skeleton. For example, it can be made from a bar.

Often, the production of such structures implies the laying of a heat-insulating material( glass wool, foam, and so on).

There are also purely frame structures, when boards are simply stuffed with boards, but it is difficult to call this option profitable in terms of price.

They are also quite difficult to assemble, so it's better to give preference to prefabricated sandwich panel housings, because they can be easily assembled by yourself, and the cost of all elements, even with insulation, is very affordable.

Features and benefits of

If you buy ready-made parts that simply need to be assembled into one design, then a drawing is always attached to the kit.

The manufacturer always provides it when buying, so the assembly runs as quickly as possible. The main advantage of buildings from sandwich panels is mobility, compactness, versatility.

When the summer residence is no longer needed - it can be easily disassembled and stored anywhere.
It is not necessary to involve specialists in order to make a cabins from prefabricated elements.

Summer cottage is going to literally in a couple of hours. Grunt, terrain and weather here also do not play a special role - quite a horizontal, relatively flat surface.

For greater stability use different foundations. Since the load that demountable cabins have is small, then the simplest concrete pouring or ribbon foundation will do.

Of course, among other things, sandwich panels give the construction of strength and allow you to serve for a long time.

Panel production today has already reached a large scale - this material is used everywhere.

If before the cabins could not boast of comfort, now many sandwich panels have excellent sound insulation.

Some say that prefabricated structures are too expensive, but this is justified by their durability and the ability to use for different purposes.

The best option is the cabins from sandwich panels, which are covered with galvanized steel from the top, so they become more resistant to sunlight, moisture and other factors.

How to build a cabins of sandwich panels?

Though it is believed that even with their own hands it is possible to make cabins almost on any surface, in fact, if they are used constantly as a summer cottage or household building, then you can not do without a foundation.

For such a structure it is enough to manage the simplest foundation. If there is already a drawing, then simply on the selected place, according to the measurements, we make the markup.

The selected area is cleaned from the top layer of grass, dirt and make a small uniform pit. It is also laid layer of formwork, which is placed insulation, as well as reinforcement.

Next, fill the future foundation with cement mortar. The main thing here is the homogeneity of the mass, the absence of clots and clots.

It is necessary to make a uniform fill on the perimeter, and after that just wait until the cement has solidified. This is the simplest version of the foundation, which you can pour yourself.

After drying, it is necessary to take care of the area on which there will be a shed of sandwich panels. It is best to fill the perimeter with sand, and install a reinforcing mesh in it.

For strength, you can pour such a pad with another layer of cement. It will also be simpler to simply pour a layer of rubble on which to install the cabins.

Assembly and frame work

After drying the foundation, you can make a frame. This is the main stage of erection of the cabins. You can choose any collapsible materials, but the frame determines the size, evenness of the structure and reliability.

A drawing can help here, as well as a responsible approach to each element. Prefabricated sandwich panels are easy to assemble, for this work there is no need for preparation.

We start from the side and end walls. Here it is necessary to remember the stiffeners, which will further strengthen the hood.

Ensure that each corner in the new room is level and level, which is checked with a level. At the same stage, the windows and the entrance are designed.

Each profile is collected according to the drawing, so there should not be any complications. The profile has the form of metal or aluminum strips, sometimes in the set there is an angle for joining two walls.

The entire structure is connected with bolts. Prefabricated large-sized cabins are mounted on sections. The result of the work should resemble a contour or frame.

The last make a roof, which should form a rectangular angle with the walls.

How is the internal work performed?

First of all we are engaged in sex. In spite of the fact that demountable panels can have different heat conductivity, it is better to make a floor covering. Here can fit and tying.

After that, check the flatness of all walls, horizontal surfaces.

Next, go to the wall paneling with sandwich panels. Please note that the lining starts from the walls, and not from the roof.

The panels are fixed to each other on the basis of the groove-groove principle, and to the surface they are fixed with screws that tighten only after checking for evenness.

The mounting itself is not very dense, the design allows drafts. Prefabricated cabins must be covered with a sealant, or rather, fill it with all joints and cracks.

By itself, a bare frame and panels without insulation materials and hermetic foam are suitable for storing tools.

If the slots are large, then they are laid with the same thermal insulation material that is used inside the hood.

Special roofing sandwich panels are used for the roof( their production is also quite common).

At the last stage inside walls are insulated, make outlets for gutters, insert double-glazed windows in windows, supply electricity.
