Self-assembly by yourself

How can it be built on the dacha by yourself? The answer to this question should be known to every summer resident. Tired of the bustle of the city, people are increasingly getting summer cottages. Not everyone can afford to buy a finished dacha with all buildings. Sometimes it's just a piece of land on which there is nothing but vegetation. Before the owner a lot of questions arise: where to store inventory, where to rest and have dinner, how not to get wet in the rain. After all, the construction of a full-fledged house or cottage will last for a long time, and all these household issues require an immediate solution. The best way out of the situation is to build a cabins with own hands from inexpensive materials. The main thing is that it does not spend a lot of money and time on its erection.

The purpose of the cabins at the dacha

Any cottage is a small room or a house that is necessary to meet basic household needs and solve business issues in the country. If the cabins are made sufficiently qualitatively and with proper comfort, then it can very well be used as a temporary home. When the main house is built, it will become a warehouse for storage of garden tools, old things that are a pity to throw. Also there you can store fishing rods, a boat, a bicycle and much more. With a certain imagination - this room can be turned into a shower or even a bath, if you put the stove there and hold water.

Some land owners use this building as a garage, a winter shed for rabbits, birds or bee hives. In general, the purpose of the shed after the construction of the main house depends entirely on the preferences and the type of activity of the owners. In any case, it will be in demand, since it is a fully multifunctional room.

Accommodation at the cottage is a completely multifunctional premise

The dwelling is an integral part of the design of the site

. Since this building is designed to perform a wide variety of functions, it is necessary before it to build a clear idea of ​​how it will be used in the future and where it is best and conveniently locatedso that you do not have to dismantle it or move it to another place.

In addition, it is advisable to think over some important points. Determine the period of use of the object and the possibility of its transportation to another place. If you intend to use the house for a year or two, then transfer it or sell it without analyzing it, then you should initially install this object closer to the exit from the site and do it in such a way that you do not have to puzzle over the issue of moving indiscriminately.

The location of the premises is dependent on its destination. When you plan to use the cabins only for household needs and as a shed for storing inventory and different things, it is best to build it on the middle of one of the long sides of the site. This solution will provide the most optimal access to the cabins from anywhere in your site. And on the contrary, if you decided later to use the cabins as a bathroom, shower or bath, then it's worth keeping all the sanitary and fire regulations, placing the building in the furthest corner.

. It is possible to offer several different ways of erection and materials of household structures in the suburban area. The choice depends on the specific options for its use and the period of operation.

Shield technology for the construction of the cabins

The simplest and cheapest way to build a cabins on your dacha site is to make it a panel house. Such a structure consists of a frame, which is constructed from uneven bars and is lined outside with a lining, and inside with sheets of particleboard or MDF.That even in the winter it was possible to get warm in such room, it is warmed with foam plastic or glass wool. The floor is made of a not edged board not less than 3.5 cm thick, which is covered with plywood or other sheet material on top. If desired, you can use any suitable topcoat on top. The roof of such a cabins can be made gable and one-run. As a roofing material is suitable for ordinary corrugated board: it is light and relatively inexpensive.

The main and perhaps the only advantage of this type of cabins is undoubtedly their cheapness and speed of mounting. With a certain imagination, even such prefabricated structures can have quite an attractive appearance.

The negative side can be called too short a period of operation. Because of the design features, in which the stiffeners are not provided, the frame will deform with time under the influence of wind, and the insulation will settle, rendering the room unsuitable for use in the winter. Therefore, it is best to build such cabins only as a temporary solution.

Frame house construction

This more expensive variant of the structure is more durable and reliable, which has led to its longer service life. The basis for the structure is a skeleton made of timber with a cross section of at least 100x100 mm. This ensures excellent stability and prevents deformation. The inner walls of this room should be lined with lining. Plywood and fiberboard for this do not work, because they absorb moisture too much. For thermal insulation, mineral wool is used, but a vapor barrier film or parchment is used as a gasket.

In this structure, the floor and ceiling must be made two-layer, placing between layers the same insulation with vapor barrier. This approach ensures the lowest heat loss during operation in the cold season. In addition, the vapor barrier maintains a sufficiently dry air in the room, which does not allow the development of fungus and mold. Frame houses can be successfully used for several seasons. This fact provides their undoubted advantage over the panel cabins. The only drawback is that they are tight inside, but this does not impose any restrictions on the full operation of the cabins as a summer kitchen, storage of tools and work clothes.

Cabs and logs

This kind of structure can not be called budgetary, since for its erection it is necessary to purchase logs or logs with a cross section of more than 100х150 cm. As a rule, such cabins are built only when they are later planned to be converted into a bathhouse. In fact, this is a full-fledged and durable house, which is capital. In connection with these, it must be installed on a full-fledged foundation. Indisputable and its advantages: long-term operation, presentable appearance, warmth. Of the shortcomings we note only the high cost.

. It is an ideal option for those who do not want to bother with long construction - put the container, used it, and after the construction was sold, so as not to spoil the view of the site. However, the container can be made on its own and even give it a completely modern and attractive appearance, which will be quite appropriate on your site. To do this, you need a metal channel, from which you need to weld the frame of the required dimensions. The frame is covered with sandwich panels. If you provide in the skeleton openings for glazing with modern window constructions, and decorate the surface of walls with finishing material, then it can turn out to be quite an interesting object.

The self-assembly of the frame hob: Step-by-step instruction

After all the details are thought out and you know how to use the hood and how long, you need to draw its drawing. It can be very simple or rather complicated. It all depends on the purpose of the structure. Only at the end of this can begin to produce basic work.

Preparing the necessary territory

As in any construction, first excavation is performed. To do this, mark the boundaries of the future site for construction and remove from it a fertile layer of soil. The earth is then densely packed and covered with waterproofing. If the soil in the area is marshy, then it is worth taking care of the drainage. On the compacted soil it is necessary to pour a layer of crushed stone or expanded clay, on which to place a sand pillow. All this is required to be well punished.

Foundation and assembly of the frame

At the corners of the contour of the future cabins install cinder blocks or other similar materials. Then several more blocks are laid symmetrically between them, so that the distance between any two adjacent blocks does not exceed 1.5 m. This structure will serve as a foundation. To prevent the destruction of cinder blocks they are wrapped with pieces of roofing material.

After installing such a foundation, you can begin to assemble the frame. In the beginning, the strapping is made of 100x100 mm timber along the entire perimeter of the future structure. The bars are stacked on all blocks. They will serve as a lag for the floor. To slagblocks they must be fastened with anchors of the appropriate length. Between the bar can be fastened in various ways, but it is most convenient to do this in the groove, choosing a half a bar at each corner and attaching a corner.

After the assembly of the binding is required, it is required to install racks from the same beam at its corners. They are attached to the harness with the help of metal corners on the screws. If you plan to build a saddle roof, then you need to make the rear pillars slightly shorter than the front. With a width of 3 m, this difference can be 50 cm, which will ensure sufficient slope of the roof. After installing the four corner support racks, you need to connect them with the upper strapping and add the frame to the additional posts that will be needed. At this stage, it is necessary to provide openings for doors and windows.

Assembling the roof

In order to mount the roof, the rafters are stacked on the upper rail bar 1 m or less from each other. As rafters can serve bruski section 100x50 mm, put on the edge. To them from the bottom are bound boards or sheet materials, on which lay the film and insulation. On the rafters make a crate of wood and close it with a vapor barrier. Only after that, the roof is closed with the roofing material. To form a complete view, you need to use the windboards, which should be fixed on the ends of the roof.

Finishing of a cabins

Floors and walls must be made two-layered. Mineral cotton wool is laid between the layers and a vapor barrier is made. Inside the walls are lined with lining or plasterboard, and on the outside with siding, block house, the same lining or even profiled sheeting. If you approach the matter creatively, build a porch, decorate everything with finishing materials, you will get a very nice cabins that can easily pass for a temporary holiday home. If necessary, you can build an autonomous heating system inside yourself and ensure the possibility of a year-round stay in it. It can be an electric heater with a circuit filled with antifreeze or oil. If there is still no electricity on the site, then you can simply install iron ore working on wood, because you will hardly experience shortages in chips and other construction waste.

The dwelling is a multifunctional utility room, without which it is quite difficult and not comfortable to manage at the dacha. Depending on how it is planned to use the dacha site itself, the cabins can serve as a storage for inventory, a barn or even a small holiday house. Upon the completion of the construction of a dacha or a house, the cabins can be converted into any desired room from a chicken coop to a bathhouse, or dismantled as unnecessary. To build such a useful structure in your summer cottage under the power of every summerman, because this requires only to be able to hold the instrument in their hands.
