Building a bath from a cut of conifer or hardwood of a tree. How to make the right choice

The decision to build in the country or in its yard the bath does not mean self-construction and the workpiece of the material, knowledge of carpentry and carpentry bases. You can simply scroll through the catalogs of companies offering logs, choose the material, choose an economical or expensive option, assemble the good-quality construction for bathing. The main thing is to choose the right-quality log house and determine the material.

Burning Material Review

For the buildings of the sauna, modern frame-shield, brick, slag cloth materials are used. The connoisseurs of the traditional bath will prefer the construction of a wooden log, relying on well-known all the advantages of walls from natural material:

1. Do not require additional thermal insulation.
2. The unique properties of wood maintain a stable microclimate in the room.
3. Comfort and comfort of living heat.
4. Ecology material.

Frams baths from the logs are erected from wood coniferous more often than from hardwood trees. Coniferous trees have an indicator of moisture resistance and water repellence above, over time they do not lose these properties, but on the contrary, they become stronger. Coniferous logs do not require protection against moisture, rotting, which fully complies with the warehouse requirement: contain substances with healing properties in the air. Treatment of materials for the construction of a bath eliminates the use of varnish, antiseptic. After evaporating, inorganic harmful substances are reduced to zero, the entire effect of the procedure is slowed down and prevent the release of the useful substances from the wood.

Credo coniferous. Advantages and disadvantages of wood

1. Lichnitsa loghouse. Larch is used for the construction of "for centuries." It has the unique properties of moisture resistance, durability and hardness. The disadvantage of the wooden material from larch is only a high price. The cubic meter of rounded logs will cost an average of $ 300. For reliability, the construction is worth posting the foundation of the building from the larch.

The advantages of a larch cut:

• self-frozen resin composition;
• high water repellent and moisture-resistant characteristics;
• high coefficient of elasticity and compression;
• natural protection against columns of tree bugs;
• hardness material, comparable with granite;
• the service life is not limited.

Disadvantages:

• high price;
• difficulty processing. Special toolkit requires solid materials.

2. Conduct of pine. Pine cylindered logs are easier to process, more affordable at cost. One cubic meter arrives at an average of $ 35. For a bath from a pine log cabin, it is necessary to seize the room from the inside with the clapboard. This will give the decorativeness of the sauna and prevent the resin hitting the body when bathing.

The advantages of a pine material:

• easy in processing building materials;
• has a high mechanical strength indicator;
• it has good indicators of moisture resistance and breathability.

Disadvantages:

• additional treatment of inner walls for thermal insulation is required;
• the durability of the material is within 30-40 years.

3. Locardo from ate. By properties, a little inferior to pine material.

Advantages:

• easy in processing building materials;
• the average rate of resinness. An additional covering is not required from the inside of the bath;
• it does not crack during the shrinkage;
• resistance to deformation;
• low cost. The price of a cubic meter logs from $ 30-35.

Disadvantages:

• low resistance to bending. A large number of spots from the bitch;
• it is possible to deformation of the wall with the wrong bookmark of the foundation.

Decoration deciduous. Dignity and disadvantages of material

1. Aspen log house.

Advantages:

• increased moisture resistance;
• increased heat saving;
• operation does not lead to the loss of basic qualities over time;
• material processing is easy and fast;
• no additional cutting cut from the inside.

Disadvantages:

• high price in comparison with better coniferous material. The cubic meter of rounded aspen logs costs $ 38-42;
• cuba weight is more than 700 kg, which places increased requirements for strengthening the foundation.

2. Located from oak logs.

Advantages:

• the highest durability of wood from similar hardware materials;
• high density, strength and elasticity of material.

Disadvantages:

• difficult material for self-erection of the bath due to the size of the logs and the grazing weight;
• high price. Cubometer oak logs costs $ 60.

Rules for choosing a high-quality log

The advantages and dignity of woody breeds for the cut were disassembled above. The selected timber can be analyzed again:

1. Before the trip of the selected finished log, spread priorities. You wanted to build a deciduous or cedar bath. Find out the cost of a cubic meter with transportation, and not for pure material.
2. Re-revising the value of the material, pick up a budget option or leave the original one.
3. Inspection logs for purchase:

• visually define the absence on the bog of the sinushes, small holes. Syneva is not simple. In the market there are special blesses of the tree, which treated the trees lying several years and then put up for sale. Fully lime or disguise gray-blue is impossible. Close carefully to the log and notice it. What is the danger of acquiring and using a log with blue? When lying logs from the inside, especially aspen, coniferous less sensitive to improper storage. Small holes indicate the presence of vertoon bugs;
• determine the diameter of the logs and inspect them with laying. According to the rules, the lower crown of the church is performed from the most thick log. Top is stacked thin, and then the diameter of the logs increases to the top of the church. The discrepancy between the diameters between the lower and the upper logs of 2-3 cm is allowed. This tab is explained by subsequent operation. The lower log is subjected to increased influence of dampness from the ground, rain, water used in the bath. The upper log is experiencing an enhanced impact of a wet pair, if you put a thin log, it quickly rotates. The difference in the parameters of thin and thick logs is small, it is not allowed to break the size of the diameter of 1.5-2 times. A good log house is assembled from logs with an almost identical diameter.

How to fold the bathhouse on your own

Tools for work:

1. Babel or shovel.
2. Axes: carpenter, carpentry.
3. Saw.
4. Hammer, cizyanka.
5. Damn.
6. Hacksaw.
7. Chainsaw.
8. Bit.
9. Drill or drill.
10. Reference or level.
11. Staples are construction.
12. Carpentry pencil.
13. Set of cacopants.
14. Cantovator for logs.

Start of work for non-worn or not rounded logs

• A smooth log house is selected, cleaned with a bag, a plane, an electric border. Recommended cut diameter from 23 cm to 32 cm. Use a smaller log diameter is not worth it. More time is spent on their processing, and the operational qualities of such a material is worse. Removing the cortex and the necessary toolkit is well described in the proposed video of the plot:

• Screw the mortgage logs of a log cabin for the first crown. The choice of a mortgage log is made from the largest material in the diameter: sex lags will be cut into the salary.

Advice. Credit must be chopped with an ax. The tree consists of elongated fibers with sliced \u200b\u200bends. The main function of the fibers is to spend water from the roots in the barrel. Figurative is a capillary with moisture. Promed with a log on an ax, chisels, plans, fugades occur around the capillary ends. The chopped wall of the church will not swing, retains heat well, is not subjected to rotting or fungal damage. Applying chainsaws, they leave 1.5 - 2 cm in front of the markup, the finishes are performed by an ax.

• The foundation lay a layer of waterproofing regularoid, the lower crown is laid on top.
• The logs for the rest of the crowns are chosen taking into account the compliance with the geometry of the cut and the lack of skew. To compensate for discrepancies, the logs are selected according to the Rule "Coml to the top". You can also choose by the location of the annual ring. Wide or southern places inside the baths, northern, narrow - outdoor side.
• Special tool "Damage" produce wristwood. It helps comply with the density of log fitting. Delineate the castle in the corner of the cut and the groove of the log.
• Make Lap Castle or "Bowl":

• The compound "Bowl" is used to mount a thick, powerful angle and protection against frozen. When assembling a log "Bowl" draw up to the bottom for the outflow of moisture. The sample of the compound is performed by a semicircular shape, not triangular. For assembly, wooden spikes or brazen are used.
• The connection "in the paw" is used for the boiler or the floor of the faucet. This method of compound allows you to drive the logs close, eliminates the execution of the outer sheaving. Failure of the method: a seizure is formed between the logs, so the insulation of the joints is performed. During operation, constant monitoring of the condition of the corners is necessary, especially in winter.
• Checked the level of the vertical. Selected logs are numbered or marked markings at the ends to facilitate the assembly.

Siruba assembly

Properly and carefully conducted preparatory phase will reduce the time of assembling the finished bath from the log cabins. At the assembly stage, they are laid horizontally on each other in order of the crown, forming a cut wall.

1. Place the salary, and the remaining crowns are superimposed on top according to the scheme. Pages are filled with insulation. The best pantry is the red swamp moss, linen bat, packle. After the assembly, you must view the seams of the cut. They must have such a kind: thin, palable does not stick out out. The process of cauldock is carried out immediately after assembly, no shrinkage of the building is not waiting.
2. Applying ecological material of the MCH type, you immediately cover long-term protection against moisture and antiseptic processing. End the assembly with fastening logs by the wanks.
3. Bath, like any building, is equipped with the door and window. The wall with the door is collected from the 2nd lower and 5 top crowns. The wall with window openings is collected from 5 lower crowns and 2-3 top. In the middle of the height of the log cabin, the solid crown is laid - it gives all the construction of stability.

The last stage of the assembly of the bath

1. After the construction of the walls of the cut, it is processed to install the rafter system, make the veranda sweeping, doomed and organize the cornices, roofs and rough floors.
2. Building leave for 1-1.5 years for shrinkage of walls. Work on the interior is beginning only after a period of drying and sedimentation of wood. The finishing work done immediately is not appropriate, cracks will appear, windscale and doorways.
3. All the time of shrinkage of the bath must be carried out a control examination of the gap of the crowns. The appearing gaps fill in the insulation, cautious moss or hemp.
