As the two heroic "novokubantsa" build his "dream house" (preparation for the installation of roof system)

A house without a roof - construction, house with a roof - already home, albeit unheated yet. Our building has come, perhaps, to his most important stage - the roof of his home. No wonder many Russian proverbs connected with the roof, because it is not just a banal performs the function of protection from precipitation. The roof - a symbol of reliability and security of the house for all the ills and tribulations, which are generously "bestows" us mother nature.

Our roof - construction of simple, thanks to the fact that was covered with a concrete slab between the floors and gables are made of concrete blocks. The construction of the roof was completed by two strong guys - my husband and neighbor. Fortunately for us, our neighbor - a professional roofer, who made more than one roof in Krasnodar. The guys had to turn to the help of friends only twice. The first time you install the rafters, the second time - to raise the roofing sheets on the roof, so they do not fracture.

The very first step in the construction of the roof was the shipping timber, and processing it ognebiozaschitnym composition of all evils. Boards we were treated together with her daughter. Her husband helped to move heavy objects. I "painted" timber with a brush, and a daughter - a roller. We used the "Cedar" in containers of 10 liters. Gone somewhere 5 containers.

After the boards have dried, work started on the construction of "skeleton" of the future roof. First on the plate were fixed on the two boards "fifties" from each edge of the plate. These boards have played a role mauerlatov. The surface under the boards was processed bitumen waterproofing.

Next came the turn of the installation of the ridge run. Along the edges of it was fastened to the gables.

Central ridge run kept two stops made of boards, 50 mm thick. These rack - time. They were removed after the "skeleton" of the roof was completely finished. Run we turned quite long - almost 10 meters. Since we bought a six-meter timber, then had to make a run, attach our navel in the center of the two boards, and subsequently by the board this place sewn to the rafters (called overlay).

By mauerlat guys fastened boards set on edge. These boards are called bongs. Shoring them at a distance of 58 cm from each other.

Removal of puffs beyond the walls of 50 cm, exactly such we had planned roof overhangs.

Tightening fastened to mauerlat with metal reinforced corners. Reinforced corners of the rib, which runs through the center.

Corners fastened to mauerlat and tightening bolts. screw length - 80 mm.

After installation of puffs on both sides of the floor plate, it was the turn of rafters.
