Features of the construction of half-timbered frame
For the construction of the carcass half-timbered used bar section of 200x200 mm 200h250 mm etc. Solid wood frame gives a monumentality that directly affects the beauty and estetku fachwerk. A user with the nickname of the portal asx_75 I used (to be able to work alone) for your house bar smaller section - 150x150 mm. But, due to the small dimensions of the structure (5x4 m), the framework will receive a powerful and credible.
Before we talk about the main features of this assembly fachwerk, a new piece of theory.
asx_75 (FORUMHOUSE User):
Half-timbered houses - a post-and-beam frame, which consists of columns (vertically placed bar), crossbars (horizontal beams) and struts or braces. The frame is going to connect "tongue and groove". Connection fixed pegs. Often there is a dispute, which should rest against boom - in a rack or in the upper stud. View photos of this half-timbered houses and specialized sites, I can tell that you are using and the one and another way. In any case, the frame gets hard. I say more - in the embodiment brick filling frame generally often dispense with struts, as it is believed that the brick will not allow the frame folded. But it can be a beautiful half-timbered without struts?
So jib largely affect the aesthetics of fachwerk. Two jib can abut the lower and upper harness, and form the so-called "St. Andrew's cross."
Or go on the sill with the intersection of the upper and the lower stop.
Racks Half-timbered houses in the take up vertical load and jib stiffen the frame.
The greatest difficulty in the Framework are interfacing components with window openings. Therefore, half-timbered (like any house) begins with a detailed account of the developed project and loads, which should carry the frame. For clarity, we present the carcass drawings fachwerk made asx_75 in Excel.
When designing a house, the user argued thus: the facade along the length longer than the side walls. Therefore, it requires more gain multidirectional diagonal struts which rest on the bottom plate and the corner posts with the facade and the rear.
To "marginalia" used Saltire.
Jib in the form of a cross are classics fachwerk very nice look.
If desired, and the availability of time, this element can be given an intricate shape, as did the masters of the past.
The compounds and elements used in Framework
We turn to practice. Half-timbered houses from the asx_75 going without a single nail on the tongue and groove. When the section of the rod 15x15 cm sizes of tongue and groove - 6h10h6 see. Nagel diameter - 2 cm.
The "tree" is the connection looks like.
Holes drilled nageli twist drill on a tree (the twenty) designated through the chuck in a powerful perforator operating in the "drill".
By said user as a chore to cut all the details as much fun to collect half-timbered frame.
At this stage not without embarrassing blunders. After collecting and reviewing stand frame asx_75 I note that the upper part of the timber has no stud for fixing binding. While this provides for a standard solution.
I had the following day to disassemble the unit and cut out the desired item.
Also, for clarity, we present a number of examples of compounds of nodes.
Because user collects fachwerk "in a hard hat," that took a number of tricks that deal with a heavy beam alone. For example, for a compound useful carcass familiar to all motorists tensioning belts.
asx_75:
Belts are simply irreplaceable! Replace with a sledgehammer blow, pulling great detail and will drive a spike into the groove. belts as retaining structures, while I will not fix all the details of pegs. I can say that I have the greatest difficulty has caused the production of stays. In theory, this is one solid geometry, but in practice - it is necessary to cut and customize everything in place.
When assembling fachwerk need to try to achieve the maximum push-fit into the groove of the spike.
For grade compounds with jib articulation bolt is hammered in nog. Also, to simplify the work can first make a template out of the board by nailing it to the rack and piping, and to outline the assembly loop. St. Andrew's cross, you can first collect and then transfer span contours on a sheet of plywood, and already on it to align the cut plane and identify spikes.
An important caveat: Classically Framework wall, with all the elements, are collected on a horizontal surface and then raised (as in a conventional frame construction) is completely finished design. Because user working alone, had to invent different ways to frame assembly of timber.
asx_75:
After I put the wall, it is necessary to link the rack with each other bolts, 5 meters in length. Placing the rack, I fixed them temporary struts and tried to get into lumber, which weighs about 40 kg, or rather a thorn in the groove size 60h100 mm. This I did not succeed. Thinking, I still found a way out of this situation.
The user has used a method joining two horizontal beams for increasing length. Having planned cutting line, asx_75 I drilled (in yet uncut tool bar) 2 nageli holes.
Sawed lumber reciprocating saw. Then, the round hole shaped square (Studable the top of the racks).
The result was 2 pins: long and short, which can be alone and to put in place without the use of lifting gear.
On the opposite wall sawing beam spot is selected to be offset from the first node so as to reduce weakening point in the structure.
With experience in the manufacture and assembly of the frame it took less and less time.
At the finish of the user assembly mounted bar top trim. To simplify the work used bar section 10x15 cm.
Not without "frills." For example, the visible part of lumber (cross beams), the user has given a smooth rounding. For this "extra" sawed off the saw, and the "gloss" put things in a file.
Fully assembled frame.
The next step - filling the space frame with foamed concrete.
Filling the half-timbered frame
Authentic timbered filled adobe, which is then plastered or, alternatively, brick, or, less commonly, a stone.
asx_75 I decided to simplify and reduce the cost of operation to use partition of aerated concrete blocks of 10h30h60 see.
It remains only to come up with a reliable way to fix the foam block, but first tell you how in this half-timbered brick attached.
asx_75:
For this beam along the groove is triangular in advance. After assembling the frame is inserted in the slot bar square tube, angle, so that the opposite edge of the opening acts in the lumen. Then, every brick in one of the ends sawed same groove. Thus, after the laying of bricks, he wedged bar and did not fall out or be displaced in the frame.
Paha999 (FORUMHOUSE User):
I heard that in the Framework for the connection of wall filler and the frame groove is made in the rod and in the aggregate crest or vice versa - the crest in the rod and the groove in the aggregate.
At first asx_75 wanted to sew up gaps between the timbers CAP. For this fill the internal contour of the carcass rail and then attach it to cut to form sheets of opening, according to the technology, as pictured below.
Thinking, the user rejected this option in favor of the foam, which is attached to the frame by means of mortgages for GCR enshrined nail in the tool bar.
An important caveat: further improved and strengthened by the attachment element, driving in of the nail foam block 2 "vosmidesyatki". Foam after drying gives shrinkage. As a result, between the beam and the foam concrete cracks appear, and the clutch starts to swing. To eliminate it (as did the user), you can drive a wooden wedges.
asx_75:
The hardest part of the work to fill openings - to adjust the geometry of the blocks under the frame geometry. I sawed the block with a hand saw on wood. Fresh foam, due to humidity, sawn hard, dried-up significantly easier. Gap between the unit and the frame can be caulked with a mixture of cement mortar and tow, or that much faster and more technologically - zapenit. All the same, then plaster blocks have.
For waterproofing unit and between the foam concrete beam was attached strip of roofing material, but, in the words of the user, he now regrets that he did it. Because or foam comes between him and the block or between the roofing material and the beam, which increases the operating time.
At the moment, on the house roof is installed, laid finish roofing - shingles, and goes plastering walls.
The next stage of work - installation of the finished floor, elektropovodki installation and interior decoration.
