The method of lining the house with imitation of a bar

Experience of recent years indicates that the cladding of the house by imitation of the beam has become widespread.

The intensive development of individual housing construction required new methods, techniques and technologies.

It is possible to erect a full-fledged house from pre-prepared structures within three to four months.

After the completion of the construction of the frame and installation of the roofing system, the stage of finishing the building comes from inside and outside.

The paneling of the facade is carried out in accordance with the design decision. In many cases, there is no need to use expensive methods for this purpose.

The material simulating the bar is considered to be the most suitable for an individual house.

Types of finishing materials

First of all, it should be noted that individual houses are built from various building materials.

Today the market is freely available:

• brick;
• foam blocks;
• slag blocks;
• cant.

The walls of the house, erected from these materials, require additional finishing. Houses of frame type, other than plating, need thermal insulation.

For finishing works, you can select the methods and materials suitable for each specific project.

Plates made of polymer materials and based on fiberboard have good performance characteristics.

In the case when the work on the skin is carried out by hand, it is very convenient to use products that simulate the timber.

Products for facing in the form of boards of wood, which look like a lining, only greater width and thickness - is called imitation of the beam.

For bonding the imitation with each other, when walling the walls, the principle of the spike groove is used. The photo shows such a panel in the section. Its width varies from 10 to 20 cm, length from 2 to 6 meters.

In contrast to the usual lining, it is available in a thickness of 1.6 to 3.6 cm.

Any hut, composed of slag blocks or foam blocks lined with imitation of a bar, is a solid wooden structure.

Simulation of the beam is used not only for wall cladding from the outside, but also for interior decoration.

Before proceeding to the plating of any surface, it is necessary to prepare accordingly.

The first step is to calculate the required amount of products for finishing work. To do this, calculate the area of ​​all surfaces of the house to be sheathed.

As a rule, there are no difficulties at this stage for the performer. The next step is to choose the thickness of the skin, imitating the bar.

The interior walls are decorated with panels with a thickness of no more than 20 mm. The finishing of the facade of the house requires a panel thickness of at least 30 mm.

This is due to the fact that the skin is simultaneously used as an element of insulation.

Like any lumber, panels simulating the bar, have a different quality. The grade of the finishing material is determined by different parameters.

For the production of panels, coniferous wood is used. Spruce, larch and pine are found most often. A wooden panel of the first grade must not have knots on its surface.

The video shows samples of products simulating a bar of different quality. The more quality the finishing material, the higher its cost.

When finishing the interior with your own hands, you can use low-grade materials. When covering the facade, these options, simulating the bar, is not recommended.

The positive properties of panels imitating a wooden beam include the following:

• availability;
• environmental friendliness;
• aesthetics;
• functionality;
• user-friendliness.

It should be noted that in the market there are similar in shape and texture products for decoration - the lining and block house.

Products simulating the bar, more thickness and width than the above analogues. They are used with the same effect for finishing works at home and outside, and inside.

The photo shows panels of different profiles that are used for exterior and interior plating.

Rules for plating

With the minimum skills of construction work, the lining of the house by imitating a bar can be done by hand.

In accordance with new technologies for the erection of individual houses, the external cladding of a frame or wooden structure is carried out simultaneously with the insulation.

Getting started, you need to perform several required actions.

First, bring the paneling back into place and dry it.

They are usually stacked under a canopy.

The storage location must be well ventilated and protected from direct sunlight.

This is done so that the humidity of the board simulating the bar, corresponds to the humidity of the environment.

Exterior cladding

The work on the external cladding of the house with panels imitating the bar starts with the fixation of the vapor barrier film.

As a vapor barrier is used polyethylene film, glassine or other similar materials. Typically, the film is fixed on top and proceed to the installation of the crate.

The lining is assembled from a log or log with a thickness of at least 3 cm. The fastening technology is simple. The beam is fixed either with nails or self-tapping screws. The next step is fixing the insulation.

Glass wool or polystyrene is used as insulation. To protect the heater from the effects of atmospheric precipitation, it is covered with a moisture-proof membrane.

The photo shows the structure of the insulation and wall sheathing.

The membrane is mounted on this membrane. And already it is attached to the panel, imitating the bar. Beginning of the skin is recommended from the bottom.

It is very important to fix the first board in a strictly horizontal position with a spike upwards. For fastening a special element is used, which is called a clay gauge.

It is possible to mount with screws with anodized coating. You need to pay attention to this nuance. If you use simple screws, then eventually they will start to rust and lose their properties.

To hide the hats of self-tapping screws, they are screwed in and closed with a wooden stopper, fixing on the PVA glue. At the end of the work this place is sanded with sandpaper.

One more method of fastening is used - a screwdriver in the spike. The fastening element must be screwed at an angle of 45.

The use of nails is allowed, but in this case it is necessary to pre-drill a hole in the fixing point. Otherwise, a crack may appear in the board simulating the bar.

When installing the next panel, it must be replaced with a rubber kyanki. Tapping from above, you need to ensure that you do not damage the comb.

The video shows the process of skinning the facade with products simulating the bar. Particular attention should be paid to the joints on the corners of the house.

For the decoration of the interface, you can use a corner bar, which is sold together with the plating.

Interior trim

The wooden house is trimmed inside with boards that simulate the beams, not so often as compared to the outer skin.

The technology of fastening the products to the wall is exactly the same as for the paneling of the facade surface of the house.

It is important to note the following - before starting work on the final finishing of the room you need to put in order the wiring.

All switches and sockets must be in working order.

Precedents are known when the imitation of the beam was used for ceiling lining. After completion of the work, boards that simulate the bar, it is recommended to cover with wax paint.

Make it desirable after a week's pause.

Nuances and subtleties of

The practice of recent years shows that the paneling of the house with panels imitating a natural bar allows to protect and decorate the facade.

The video shows a frame house that is finished with this material. The first thing that you should pay attention to when choosing a material is the appearance.

If there is a large number of knots on the board, then you should not buy and apply it. After the purchase of boards, they must be dried properly.

In the drying process, care must be taken to ensure that the skin does not lose shape and does not crack. It is recommended to carry out works on the skin of the house in dry, sunny weather.
