Self-assembly by yourself

Having bought a plot of land, the owners begin to take there tools, tools for cultivating the land, or unnecessary, so far, things. Places to all place, as a rule, not enough. To build a capital structure, expensive building materials are needed. Hiring builders, too, is expensive. A cabins made by own hands will be an excellent way out of the eternal problem of shortage of square meters.

Materials

The following construction materials will be required:

timber;
lining;
cement;
sand;
rubble;
fittings;
OSB plates;
roofing material.

Basement

For starters, you need to make a markup and clear the territory. Make a small depression( 10-15 cm).In it to fall asleep sand, tamper. Then put the geotextile, on it already a layer of rubble 5 cm. Then, install the formwork, starting from a floor height of 10 cm. The next step is to tie the reinforcement around the entire area of the future basement. Now proceed to pour concrete. Until the concrete has grasped, we install foundation bolts along the perimeter of the base in freshly-cast concrete. They will be needed for fixing the wooden frame base. After pouring concrete, you need to wait a few days until it freezes and takes the necessary strength.

Walls Medium sized beams are used to build the walls of the cabins. The four bars that you need to attach to the foundation bolts will be the foundation for the walls.

You need to raise the frame by setting the extreme supports.

Then, they are fixed by the upper beam and the side, temporary board.

The top bar will serve as a benchmark for the following towers. By this principle, all four walls are exposed.

The distance between the supports should be about 50 cm. Unclear walls, in the future, will affect the erection of the roof. Therefore, during installation, it is necessary to measure the diagonal with a tape measure. They should be the same length. Level control of height differences. For the door and windows are special openings.

Here you can see photos and videos about how to build a self-service huts.

Roof

A gable roof is suitable for a frame cabins.

First, beacons are exhibited, for rafters. Install them in the center of the wall at the top, as shown in the photo.

Further, they are connected by a cross beam, which will serve as a support for the rafters and will be the peak of the roof.

You can fasten rafters with nails or special fasteners. Depending on the size of the cabins, you may need additional reinforcement of the roof. For this, it is necessary to fasten the racks to the outer rafters. They will support the transverse beam between the extreme beacons, thereby preventing the roof from bending under its weight or additional load. After that, the crate is clogged.

The frame of the cabins is ready and you can proceed to its plating.

Skinning

For wall covering, an OSB plate is suitable, it can be sewn and a roof.

Doors, also, can be built from a small size beam and OSB slabs. For this you need to measure the dimensions of the door opening. Then, from the beam, knock down the frame and trim it. Such a door will be easy, so it will not sag and get deformed.

The construction of the cabins with its own hands is coming to the end. The final stage is the cladding and roofing of the roof.

The fastest and easiest way to wall out the cabins is painting. However, there are no strict rules or conditions.

Everyone chooses the material for the roof and walls at their own discretion. For example, the roof can be covered with an ondulin, and the walls can be sewn from the outside with metal siding or lining( previously, treated with an antiseptic).
