Wooden house of the future or technology NATURI

What to choose - wood, aerated concrete or warm ceramics? These questions arise before any developer decided to build a house. And if the stone buildings are traditionally associated with reliable and durable buildings, almost no shrink, the house that was built from tree, despite the excellent microclimate, "live your life", for a long time, continuing to shrink and forcing their owners to postpone finish.

Is required to combine the strength of the concrete monolithic structure with the advantages of a wooden frame - until recently, the majority of users FORUMHOUSE would say that this is impossible. But technology does not stand still - from across Europe every year growing popularity of a new method of construction of a wooden house - NATURIOr as it is called, the construction technology at home from a vertically mounted timber.

Country - Austria ancestor of this technology, but it is known that in Moscow house of vertical logs were to be found even 150 years ago. And if in our country, this technology is still little known, in countries such as - Germany, France and Austria, this method of construction of wooden houses has gained a lot of fans. We can not say that the vertical beams - so-new technology of wooden construction.

NATURI technology - Western approach

technology creator - Georg Ganaus. Austrian puzzled by the question - how to build energy-efficient and high-tech house of the forest and at the same time get rid of this problem as a significant shrinkage. And, as the urban legend, the solution he suggested very nature.

After all, a tree trunk, put up, can withstand a load of 5 times greater than the stacked horizontally.

It remains only to find a way to mount and solve another problem, namely - to save a wooden structure from an operation such as caulking. Taking the laminated veneer lumber production technology, Georg Ganaus perfected it, having achieved that, after the installation of the vertical beam wall turns into wooden monolith and has the form a final coating.

In 2000 it was built the first house on the new technology NATURI.

How is the vertical stacking timber

The essence of the new items in the house-building technology what it is. The wall is going according to the principle of the puzzle of the small bars. As seen in the photograph, the beam pattern has a complicated cross-section, which allows using a connection system groove / ridge and using additional fastening nagelja collect virtually any wall thickness and shape.

When the vertical stacking of any possible creation of curved surfaces, and by the fact that between the bars remains a small gap in which air is contained, the wall does not require additional insulation.

Vertical frame of a wooden house has a huge strength. This is achieved due to the fact that wood is initially dry and contains a small percentage of moisture is supplied to the building site in special thermal insulating film, and a little after assembly gaining moisture from the air and swelled, bars literally tightly engaged with each with friend.

To build on this technology is easy, but thanks to the aforementioned characteristics, it is impossible to make out the house.

To fix the vertically mounted timber in the basement, used two technological solutions:

• The foundation of technological advance made holes - slots into which you can install vertical bar, but it can lead to rotting of the lower ends, so it is often used next the way;
• At the foundation is laid horizontally impregnated fire and biosecurity lumber - this is done to ensure that the ends of the vertically mounted timber does not rot. Then, on this board, the accountant called crown is secured special board with holes for pins, through which the elements are bonded with each other

The whole truth about weakly deepened foundation slab It is told in a special section of our forum.

One of the advantages NATURI technology lies in the fact that, for exterior and interior finishing, you can use different varieties wood outside to decorate the building is moisture and rotting larch, and the inside - good for health and climate cedar.

Moreover, thanks to the low consumption of expensive material reduces the overall cost of the vertical home timber and as stated by the manufacturer, the price of 1m2 of the house is lower than the same area of ​​the timber house glued.

Another, but not the last advantage of this housing technology is the fact that a house through minute gaps between decorative panels and beams that is called "breathing", but the wind, because of the complex structure of the inner wall can not priniknut through walls vertical framework.

This technology, with a lot of indisputable advantages, such as:

• The house is actually going on the principle designer. All elements of the pre-fabricated in the factory and for the installation of the boards due to their light weight does not require recourse to the sophisticated technology, which reduces the time for the construction of houses;
• Walls have great strength and a flat geometry, and thanks to the flexibility of design and installation at the customers the opportunity to attach any exclusive form walls;
• For walls do not require additional insulation or windscreen, and the house can withstand greater snow loads;
• Virtually no shrinkage at home, the walls due to the connection groove / ridge and additional fastening Nagel leads even during seasonal temperature fluctuations;
• The house is at the end of the construction is ready for occupancy, and the surface of the walls has a view of the topcoat, saving their owners from having to produce the finishing.

But every coin has a flip side:

• Because of the complex compound system boards for their manufacture need to apply high-precision turning and milling equipment;
• The construction of the house can be trusted only a well-trained and highly skilled team of collectors;
• All the details of the future home run through the computer simulation system, as the slightest deviation from the the project may lead to the accumulation of errors and one or unevenly laid brick curve is able to spoil all wall.

Thus, summing up we can say that, despite all the advantages, to build houses on technologies NATURI responsible need and the above features lead to a marked increase in the estimate for building.
