The gazebo in the summer cottage is usually done as a place to relax. This building should not only look good, but also be functional enough. A variant of such a building that combines all the above functions is a gazebo with barbecue. The construction of such a design personally, without the help of specialists, has several advantages. So, for example, this will allow you to optimally choose the size and style of construction, as well as reduce construction costs. We will tell you more about how to do this in this article.

Characteristics and types of buildings
There are a lot of structures of the gazebo. The choice of one or the other is largely determined by finances and imagination. The gazebo can be completely closed. At the same time, it will be convenient to highlight the recreation areas and for cooking. Or you can make a gazebo with barbecue and barbecue more open in the form of a small canopy. The main material for such a building is usually brick or wood.
As for the barbecue, you can buy it or also do it with your own hands. In the second case, it consists of brick or assembled from sheet metal. In the use of this or that material there are both pros and cons. For example, a brick better protects against wind and precipitation and at the same time, frequent care and repair do not need this material. After all, such designs are quite strong and durable. An even more important plus is its refractory, which is important for a gazebo with barbecue. Therefore, one can not beware that the sparks that accidentally fell to the surface will cause a fire. A brick like a stone also allows you to build a gazebo that can protect not only from precipitation and wind, but also from low temperatures and snow. Therefore, in such a building you can even celebrate winter holidays (New Year, Christmas, etc.). As for the disadvantages, the main thing is the fact that for a brick arbor with a barbecue you need a heavy and strong foundation.
A wooden gazebo will cost much cheaper. This material is suitable for both temporary and capital construction. In order for the wood to serve for a long time, most importantly, to process it correctly with special impregnations. In addition, wooden details in this case will require a minimum of care. The gazebo can be built using a galbed timber, lining and various decorative strips. Due to the fact that the wood is relatively inexpensive material, less costs for the construction of the foundation are obtained. After all, for her does not need such a heavy basis as for a brick gazebo. As for the barbecue, it is usually not built into a wooden gazebo, but is bought ready -made. A wooden building can easily fit into almost any country landscape.
Country buildings made of wood have a lot of advantages. One of them is the availability of material and the necessary tool. A wooden building after processing with special means can last a long time. In addition, such a gazebo is simple in construction, and the process itself will take a little time. In addition, wooden arbors, as mentioned above, do not need a heavy foundation.
A pretty good option is to combine brick and wood. These materials allow you to create a beautiful and original barbecue barbecue. In this case, the gazebo is visually divided into two areas: for work and for relaxation. You can also make a part of the construction of the open, and the other is closed, capable of withstand strong wind loads.

Design and planning stage
The construction of the gazebo consists of several stages:
- First of all, a project and a design plan are selected.
- Then the site and the necessary building materials are prepared.
- Next, choose a barbecue and fill the foundation.
- After that, they are engaged in the installation of barbecue and the masonry of the basement.
- Next, the walls are erected and when they are ready, they are engaged in the roof.
- Then you can equip the floor.
So, initially you need to decide on the design of the gazebo, what will be its design, and to panning the structure. For this, a project of arbors with barbecue is drawn up.
When a decision is made to plan the gazebo, you need to take into account many factors. At this stage, you should choose the material from which the structure will be built, the location of the barbecue.
The following arbors are distinguished depending on the design:
- Open or closed.
- Capital or temporary.
- Combined.
There are many design options. After all, each project is developed depending on the personal preferences of the owners. When creating a sketch, as mentioned above, you need to decide on the place to place the barbecue and cutting table. Even at the stage of drawing up the project, you need to choose the optimal size and height of the building. On average, the height of the gazebo is no more than 2.7 meters. In addition, when designing, you need to decide on the type of foundation. In this case, the dimensions of the future building and the features of the soil are taken into account. So, if the gazebo is built on sandy soil, then the basis can be made by low -blue. In any case, the base of the building will be mounted on it. Therefore, the foundation should protrude about 100 mm above the ground. As for the basement, it is laid out so that its dimensions do not exceed the width of two bricks. Moreover, the first row provides for the flow of water and ventilation. Before laying the second row, it is necessary to make waterproofing.
Preparation of the site
Even before the preparation of the project, you need to choose a suitable place for the gazebo. It is desirable that she is in the shade near the house. Moreover, the surface of the earth in the selected place should be flat. Otherwise, you will have to remove the soil layer to level the site.
When everything is prepared, you can start filling the foundation. The most important thing is that he can withstand the weight of the structure. When working with the basis, it is important to adhere to construction technologies so that the building does not skew after time and does not sag. Then you need to calculate the amount of material necessary, purchase it and deliver it to its place without forgetting about the tools. When buying the material, a solution for masonry and waterproofing is still purchased.
Installation of the barbecue
For a gazebo for a summer residence with barbecue, this is one of the most important stages. Therefore, do not rush with the choice of the unit. It is worth considering all types of mangals and among them to choose the most suitable both in functionality and in appearance. As an option, you can make it yourself.
Ready -made barbecues can be made of different material:
- For example, from cast iron. This option, perhaps, is most suitable for capital arbors. Such barbecue can last several decades and at the same time they do not need a lot of fuel. After all, they have high heat transfer.
- Mangals can still be electric. They are good for their safety and the fact that there is no smoke when using them.
- Quite often use metal barbecue. They deserve their popularity due to their lightness and strength. In addition, they are inexpensive and serve for quite some time.
- Steel barbecue are not subject to corrosion, they do not need additional care. Fuel is kindled inside a metal box.
Sometimes the most convenient barrows are collapsible. It is good, first of all, by the fact that they are easy to transfer to the right place. If necessary, they easily fold in a small box. But it is worth considering what they are usually made of cheap metal, which does not tolerate high temperatures well. To this, such a metal is easily deformed. Because of this, you can cook food in such barbecue only on coals.
As for homemade barbecue, they can also have a different structure. So, for example, they are most often laid out of brick. Such barbecue looks more like a stove. This is a fairly heavy design, for which a strong foundation must be needed. If you decide to install the finished barbecue, then you do not need to do anything additionally.
The installation of a brick barbecue is carried out as follows:
- First, the first rows of brick are laid out. They need to be laid out.
- Then they make a niche where firewood will be stored. It is usually erected around the perimeter of the barbecue.
- Then the opening is laid on this base where the food will be prepared. Usually it is enough to make the height of this opening in seven bricks.
- When the barbecue is ready, you will need to engage in chimney and pipe. First, a metal pipe with a special lid is placed, and then around it is covered with brick.
- The cutting table is usually made next to the barbecue. Sometimes for convenience, they still put a washbasin.
The construction of the gazebo
If we are talking about a stone gazebo, then it needs a strong foundation. This is an important part that cannot be neglected. For this case, one of the following options for the basis is usually used - strip or slab. The latter is easiest to build, but still it will require a mechanism for lifting and installing piles and beams of ceiling.
As for the wooden gazebo, its construction is generally easier than working with a stone or brick structure. To build such a building, pits of suitable depth and size are dug up in the ground before installing the pillars in the ground. They are already installing pillars, which usually use high -quality beam. To lay the floor boards, the pillars at the bottom need to be tied with a beam - the boards will be laid on them. Having retreated from the floor 1-1.5 meters, a strapping is done. And after that, the bottom of the gazebo with the barbecue barbecue and the stove is covered with boards or lining.
Total for a wooden gazebo will require a square or round beam, lining or boards. To protect the pillars, oil paint will be needed. Without them, the lower part of the pillars, which is located in the ground, can begin to rot. For the rafters of the roof, you will need boards, and for the roof itself you need suitable roofing material.
As for the gazebo itself, after building it will need to be covered with olifa. When the Olifa dries, the wooden details are also painted or covered with varnish. During the construction of a structure from a beam or log, there may be shrinkage. If this is not taken into account, then the door or window openings will be dug up, cracks will appear in the walls. If you take the necessary measures, then such "troubles" can be prevented.
Rules for the care and operation
- The gazebo with the stove and barbecue needs timely care. This will allow her to last longer. So, an open gazebo before the onset of winter should be covered with a film to protect it from snow and low temperatures. At the same time, the ventilation holes must be made in the film.
- On the wooden parts of the building, there should not be leaves that are fallen in the fall. After all, they can provoke wood rot. Cracks may appear on wooden details, then they will have to be closed with putty.
- Both wooden and metal surfaces should be periodically treated with means against the negative influence of the environment. It is better to put objects from the gazebo for the winter to another place.
