That can be built on 4 acres

Member FORUMHOUSE Andrew c nickname GOOSE had land four hundred square meters of space in gardening and dacha spill in Siniavino. And then the family council it was decided to build a cottage in the spill. Confident in their abilities and he decided to learn the wisdom of building your own. Finding information on the Internet led him to Forumhouse, where he stayed, in preparation for the future construction site.

The house is on 4 acres of land: plan

Plot Andrew - 4 weave, home to 12 meters in width and 34 in length, small and very uncomfortable. He knew that he would build a frame-panel house, and his plan on this plot of land is not expected. He was not used to deviate from the intended target, and as a result of reflection and debate with home finally born the final draft. It was decided to build a house with an attic floor, the size of 5.5 - 10 meters.

By occupation Andrew I never engaged in the design, but all his life he wore shoulder straps, so the decision is clearly subdivided into stages:

• I was given the task;
• to fully understand it;
• assessed the situation, its strength, opportunities;
• It makes their own decisions.

The whole family decided - building a frame house! construction width of 5.5 meters, so he decided to make the side of the canopy. It is also a violation, but carry the canopy is much easier than to demolish the house.

Andrew's most concerned about the construction technology of frame-panel house. Theory - the theory, but it was terrible. And so from St. Petersburg asked the member of our portal Dima - kubarik from Moscow "obchertit" home project for 4 hundredth, who was born in his mind. Planning was conceived simple yet optimal.

Ground floor:

The second (attic) floor:

Upon receipt of the project could be built, to start the construction of the foundation, which was a plate.

For its construction Andrew invited three free builders who worked with his friend. On the site at that time there was a change house. The guys offered completely break it, but Andrew did not let do it, but decided to postpone it by using logs and a hydraulic jack. Structure was collected from hairy dyuymovka, and covered with roofing material in one layer. Bungalow suffered moving with dignity, without great losses, even the roof remained intact and does not flow in the rain.

May 30 work began to complete the excavation under the slab. The soil in the area is the land layer 40 * 60cm. and Cambrian clay. For the export of land was purchased and construction wheelbarrow, which he collected with grief in half, but the thing is that all the parts were of different models. Trough from one wheel on the other hand, the frame tube - from the third, but in the end something where drilled, something where unbent... Muzzy and ohromevshaya, wheelbarrow began to carry out their duties.

On the clay base of the pit, Alexander poured gravel and rammed his vibratory plates. 100mm laid on top of the extruded PPS in two layers, and everything is completely covered film. On top of it made reinforcement. On each side of the body plate is a single layer (50 mm) Epps.

Andrew embarrassed formwork of the foundation, but the workers in one voice assured that as you can - it will withstand a tank!

First lesson:

formwork must be flat, firm, exposed as accurately as possible! For then the same will be your foundation ...

Work is progressing according to plan. June 19 came the first mixer, followed by the second. On casting took a little less than 14 cubic meters.

Andrew liked a technical solution with Epps in the thickness of the concrete, but to fill it without sleeves are very troublesome. Epps always tries something to emerge, then move to the outer wall that Andrew did not suit. He had to work hard personally, because this operation does not work, he trusted, he did what has never regretted

Poured concrete workers smoothed long boards set on edge by the upper edges of the formwork. But even though the board and on edge, yet she sagged, I found out only later, when Andrew saw a puddle after rain on the foundation. More from the board remained grooves that allegedly working "then leveled saiy" .But they remained.

Second lesson:

after filling plates have to try to smooth the surface as much as possible, then it will save you time, money, arms, and nerves ...

Workers covered concrete with polyethylene, and Andrew said goodbye to them, and the plate watered daily.

Removing formwork

July 9, exactly three weeks later, he took the formwork. Then missed the concrete on the sides and under the harness hydroprotective impregnation, insulate the sides remains Epps, he puts his own at an angle from the base and top of sand slipped, so you can walk.

The project was embedded anchor studs. But due to lack of knowledge on their installation in fresh concrete Andrew retreated from the plan and spudded the anchor in the finished basement.
