Cellar of reinforced concrete slabs - a personal experience

When the construction of the cellar is not burdened with shallow ground water with all its attendant delights such as extrusion designs frost heave or filling in the spring under the string, there is an option to save on building materials and waterproofing. So did one of the members of our portal, Ivan240980By selecting for its capital structure is already second-hand stove. A construction process and the results of "field tests" posted in his subject. Perhaps someone his experience will come in handy.

Cellar of b / a w / w plates

When the handyman before it became necessary to build a basement, it is correlated with the possibilities and desires began with the selection of materials.

Ivan240980 (User FORUMHOUSE):

We have the desire to have a convenient cellar with the calculation in the future to him not to return - begin to study the cost, availability of materials. In my case, the most convenient steel material b / stove with silos.

Immediately purchased four plates - with the three dimensions of 3x3 meters and a thickness of 12-14 cm, and one of the same thickness, but 3x3,5 meter. Last autumn, these plates were treated by 3.5 thousand. In the course of discussion of the topic it suggested that it was easier to buy a new, but according to

IvanPrices are different everywhere, and for him to get a solid pocket the difference.

By itself basement excavator dug a hole 3,5x3,5 meter, choose the ground under a small vestibule with a staircase in the pit under excavation made pieces of plates, which will be the foundation for the wall. From plates through grinders and diamond disc, taking "a great success" not only concrete, but also fittings, cut 50 cm and put into a pit.

Mounting plates began with the end, her side alternately installed, fixing - angle irons on the anchors. In the fourth, a large plate, first cut ventilation holes cut through the front door, but not completely, and then established a foothold dorezal door and pulled out a piece of hoist.

The next stage deepened, cleaned, sleep Booth and cemented area vestibule, using grouting sewers, which greatly simplified the process of.

Walls tambour overlaid bricks laid on the site three rotary stage, cemented, metal reinforced edge area welded to the reinforcing rods (6 mm). Frame for stairway welded from profile pipe 40x40 mm board unmade stage (40 mm). Since the plans have changed, and out of the cellar in the future will acquire a summer kitchen, after a staircase of tried and tested algorithm also made three rotary stage. Cellar blocked foraminous w / w slabs (1x3,3 m + 1, 2x3 m), covered with soil. Plate on the ceiling lift got for the price ex works, but it had not enough - the gap tied to concrete and reinforcement.

In addition to lifting, it had to be folded at the outlet brick vestibule, as due to the summer kitchen door opens inwards. All protruding above the ground and the lifting of the vestibule insulate Epps 5 cm thick. Rather special "fungus" using long screws with dowels and iron plates (homemade from waste), additional sutures propenival.

Held lighting, installed plastic doors - window profile with the filling of the sandwich panels, mounted on the cellar shelves perimeter, four of them with a depth of 60 cm. To store vegetables at the bottom of the box will be retractable.

Internal dimensions of the resulting cellar - 3x3x2,5 meter floor at 3.8 meters from the ground, a layer of clay over floor slabs 1 meter thick. In the winter cellar gone with forced ventilation (tube 20 cm from the floor), further equipment - the results of the winter.

cellar waterproofing and insulation of the ceiling Ivan240980 did not specifically - ground water far above the exit will be a summer kitchen, cellar, above the ceiling, he will build a summerhouse on strip foundations with expanded clay backfill. From monolithic sealing of joints with reinforcement at this point, too, I refused, as the design will still "walk", not yet established.

In winter, when temperatures below overboard -30⁰S (vault Novosibirsk region) in the cellar temperature has fallen below + 3⁰S freezing drizzle was observed at the output gradually tightened tambour frost. The basement remains dry, in the end there was frost on the entrance - a little on the ceiling and above the door. In general, satisfactory results, all work preserved. When appears on the cellar gazebo, even a slight freezing of overlap will be eliminated. A vestibule will be warmer when "will acquire" a summer kitchen. If no buildings are planned from above, solves the problem of overlap insulation sheets Epps before backfilling with soil and warming vestibule in the same layer. So did one of the participants.

I put 100 mm Epps, the ceiling does not freeze, always dry, non-condensing. Stair vestibule I also warmed to 100 mm, so there is no kurzhaka.

Cellar of b / stove with a brick vestibule (there were no plates to the required dimensions) has proven to be viability and the costs are much lower than at full brick construction - its topikstarter Task completed. All details can be found in his theme Offline Portal.

There is an article about the round brick basement also on the portal, consisting of first and second part, perhaps someone wants to repeat this option. In the video, we'll the construction of the cellar in a high groundwater level.
