Construction bath seems extremely difficult task. And so it is, if you do not prepare for all the possible difficulties in advance. On personal experience I would say that to build a pair of shaped timber 3x6 is quite real, even without too much difficulty. The main thing - is to select suitable materials in advance to determine the construction plan and a lot of patience.
Foundation
Any construction begins with the construction of the foundation. After reading some of the subtleties of the foundation of the bath, I found out that you need to lay it on the depth of soil freezing. Since I live in the middle lane, it was decided to keep the depth of 160 cm.
As my steam room planned as a light (of the timber), then as a base can be selected pier foundation (belt monolith here was absolutely not necessary, because the room is not made of bricks or logs). However, I decided to play it safe, and still opted belt monolith.
Step 1. I cleared the necessary territory, removed all the rubbish, bushes, branches, took off the top layer of grass.
Step 2. It was then made the necessary measurements territory, taking into account all fire safety measures. Thereafter, a trench was dug. At the bottom of the trench was filled with sand and gravel.
Step 3. After that was built formwork and reinforcement. Finished construction at the end of poured concrete solution.
While the foundation froze, I started purchasing the necessary materials:
- beam (30 m³);
- board in various formats;
- lnodzhutovaya belt 3 mm;
- antiseptic;
- insulation;
- wall paneling;
- furnace (acquired conventional heater, will set shrinkage after bath);
- waterproofing for the roof.
Main building
Before moving on to the main construction phase, I decided it would be nice to treat each bar antiseptic composition to be safe from rotting.
When the material is dried out, I went to an important stage - laying the first wreath. I know there is nothing you can not screw up, because all future construction depends on it. By the way, the first crown more susceptible to decay, so I decided that first put him under the mortgage board from larch (30 cm), And already she began to stack timber half lengthwise cut (made to order). After all these steps, it began laying the next bars.
Paul began to build for roughing. he made of edged boards 25 mm all logs processed antiseptic composition, put waterproofing and insulation. For interior partitions used the same timber, but thinner (10x15 cm).
The final stage was the installation of roof system for pitched roofs. I made from a section of the board 10x4 cm. Waterproofing and lay ondulin necessary.
Construction is scheduled to finish interior trim already, because the bath must be given time to shrink. At the same time an oven, steam room and organize pomyvochnaya.
