Houses made of profiled timber are a modern take on wooden architecture. The technology is appreciated abroad, where it has been used for many years. Now it has gained wide popularity in Russia, which is facilitated by ease of construction and comfortable living. Such structures can be erected by ordering turnkey construction from a specialized company or by doing the installation yourself.
The secret of success lies in the specific properties of this building material. It is being manufactured from natural wood and is dried under industrial conditions. The most common material is pine, spruce, larch, but you can also find timber from hardwood - oak, aspen.
Its main difference from ordinary timber – the presence of a profile on both sides (along the entire length), providing lock connection using the tongue-and-groove system. The installation of structures from it is carried out according to the principle of a children's construction set, joining the elements together.
Basic advantages of the indicated houses:
Flaws houses made of profiled timber are determined by the properties of wood:
Durability of paving walls wooden house completely depends on protective measures – impregnation with anti-rot composition and reliable waterproofing.
Important. We should not forget that wood is a highly flammable material, which requires appropriate treatment with non-flammable agents.
Any capital construction begins with several important events.
Capital construction can only be carried out if the necessary technical documentation:
It is very difficult to calculate the required cross-section of a beam taking into account the loads, and therefore when choosing the size of a beam for walls, use the following standards:
The amount of lumber is calculated based on detailed plan walls with planking. The required volume of timber (V) for wall masonry is determined as the product P*H*b,
where P is the complete perimeter of the house with all protrusions (m), H is the height of the walls (m), b is the width of the beam (m), minus window and door openings.
The number of beams is determined as V/(b*h*l), where b is the width, h is the height, l is the length of the beam (m). The specific length of the beams is determined by the planking of the walls.
The laying and construction of the foundation is carried out in the following order:
The construction of walls begins after concrete curing, i.e. no earlier than 7-10 days after pouring.
The construction of walls begins with the installation of a box, as it is commonly called the first crown of the log house. It uses timber with a size exceeding the size of the main elements. IN standard projects the use of timber is envisaged 15x20 cm. This detail of the house should be especially carefully be treated with an antiseptic. In addition, it is recommended to use larch timber.
Work order:
The subfloor or floor covering is made of wooden logs, which are fixed to the box at home. A groove is cut out on the lower beams to match the size of the lag. Soundproofing is placed on the bottom of the groove, rubber gasket . The log beams are laid parallel in increments of 40-60 cm. If the ceiling is high above the ground, then support frames are installed.
Between the joists it is laid waterproofing from roofing felt or polyethylene film and fits insulation.
Most commonly used expanded clay, ash or sawdust . Can be applied mineral wool or polystyrene foam.
A subfloor made of boards at least 25 mm thick is laid on top of the logs.
The first board is fixed at a distance of 1-1.5 cm from the wall, forming a damper gap.
Walls are built by alternate laying of crowns along the entire perimeter of the house with the formation of openings and the removal of internal, intermediate walls. There are several construction nuances that will be highlighted below.
You can reliably connect the bars end-to-end in the following ways:
To strengthen the connection, joining surfaces covered with glue. Additionally, it can be reinforced with screws or nails.
Forming the corner of the house is considered an important operation responsible for the reliability and appearance of the entire log house. That is why this element is normalized GOST 30974-2002.
The following methods are provided:
The insertion of the wall into the main crowns of the log house can be achieved in the following ways:
The crowns of the log house are fastened during installation using wooden dowels. They are a wooden rod with a diameter of 16 - 22 mm and a length of 1.5 - 2 times the height of the beam.
The diameter of this element should exceed the size of the hole in the bars by 3-5 mm. The installation of dowels is carried out taking into account the following nuances:
The seam between the crowns is the area of probable " bridge of cold", which requires insulation. It is believed that you can do without it only if using a "German comb" as a lock profile. But even in this case, it is better to caulk the seam externally.
In other options, heat-insulating fibrous material is placed in the groove along the entire length of the beams - jute, linen. The thickness of such a gasket should not exceed 5-8 mm.
The roof of a house made of timber is made on the basis of a rafter system and, as a rule, has a gable design.
The following stages are distinguished:
When building a house, it is impossible to do without some specific elements. They create certain nuances in the work process:
Houses built from profiled timber are popular, and this is no coincidence. Among the main advantages of the house, it is worth highlighting the speed of installation, since during the construction process the structure is assembled in short period time. To build a house from profiled timber with your own hands, you must follow the advice of experts.
First of all, a design project is drawn up. In the process of drawing up a plan, it is important to take into account all the nuances that will affect the cost of materials and work. You can make a plan yourself or turn to professionals who know their business and can do the job.
When harvesting wood yourself, it is worth considering the fact that it is better to do this in cold period time. Wood should take a long time to dry. But in cold weather it is better to refuse work, because wet wood becomes fragile.
To build a house, you need to use wood with a moisture content of no more than 20%, otherwise it will warp and cracks will appear in the walls.
When choosing wood, it is important to give preference to a material without cracks. Next, the log is cut and treated with an antiseptic. If desired, you can purchase wood that has already been processed, in which grooves will be cut. As a result, folding the house will not be difficult.
In order to understand how to do quality work, it is important to follow the rules.
Building a house needs to start with defining the right type foundation. For this purpose, it is necessary to study the occurrence of groundwater, become familiar with the structure of the foundation of neighboring houses, as well as the composition of the soil.
For a wooden structure, a pile, columnar or strip shallow foundation is considered an excellent option.
For the walls, a beam with a section of 150×150 mm is required. After laying the first row, it is treated with an antiseptic. Floor joists are also installed, which are laid on edge. The cross-section of the beam should be 100×50 mm. They can be placed on the foundation and attached to the walls of the structure.
Two logs are placed on walls opposite each other. A construction thread is pulled between them, maintaining a distance of one and a half meters. The threads will indicate the level at which other logs can be set and mounted.
The gaps formed between the lags are filled with insulation, which is used as polystyrene foam, mineral wool or polystyrene foam. If the boards intended for laying the floor reach a thickness of 40 mm, the distance between the lags should be about 80 cm. The height of the lags is adjusted using wedges made of thin plywood, which are secured with self-tapping screws or long nails. Logs and wedges are fixed to wooden base using wood screws or long nails. When installing joists on concrete base use dowels or anchors.
Now you can attach the boards. The best option will become boards with a cross section of 25×150 mm. To do this, you need to step back 1 cm from the wall and strengthen a row of boards, focusing on the thread. If the boards will be fastened with self-tapping screws, a hole is drilled for them, after which the board is attached to the joists. The subfloor must be covered with a layer of thermal insulation and waterproofing. For this, polyethylene or penofol is used. A wooden flooring made of tongue and groove boards is laid on the subfloor.
During the work process, the beams are laid out one by one. At the same time, they are fastened together with dowels, which prevent the timber from moving. The material for dowels is wood or metal.
It is better to purchase wooden dowels, as metal ones can rot.
The most suitable option is considered to be ondulin, metal tiles or corrugated sheets.
In order to save money on heating in the future, it is important to pay attention to home insulation. Outdoor thermal insulation occurs due to a decrease in the moisture content of the beams. The most popular finishing option is clapboard finishing. You can also use mineral wool, flax-jute fiber, glass wool slabs. The latter option is laid using a foil vapor barrier layer. Thus, the heat will be directed indoors.
It is not recommended to use polystyrene foam when insulating a house made of timber, as it prevents the evaporation of moisture from the wood, which can lead to rotting of the material. It is better to use a membrane vapor-permeable layer.
To cover the walls inside the house, you can use clapboard or drywall.
Many people mistakenly believe that a house made of profiled timber does not shrink. It is, of course, not so big, but it is important to remember this and not install windows and doors rigidly.
Provided step by step instructions will allow anyone to cope with the work, even those who do not have experience in this kind of construction.
This video demonstrates the assembly eco-friendly home from profiled timber:
Watch a video about which timber profile to choose for a house under construction:
Despite the widespread development of multi-storey residential and administrative buildings using concrete, glass and metal are still popular classic houses made of wood. Timber has proven itself to be one of the most reliable options when building a wooden house. The opportunity to build a house from profiled timber with your own hands exists for everyone who has the corresponding desire and is ready to acquire building materials for upcoming work. If you combine enthusiasm with competent planning and a responsible approach to each stage of construction - success is more than guaranteed!
Profiled timber is a building material produced by processing coniferous trees: spruce, larch, cedar, pine. The inner side of the beam is a smooth, polished surface, while the outer side can be either round (imitate a log) or have a different shape, and also follow the contour inside, being completely flat.
There are grooves and tenons on the side that serve as joining elements for individual beams. The consumer's choice often falls on timber, not only because of its reliability indicators, which have been confirmed for decades, but also due to the fact that the timber is environmentally friendly, since no glue is used in the manufacturing process.
Another advantage of profiled timber is its very good heat capacity and thermal insulation. This allows any resident and guest of cobblestone houses to always feel comfortable in them. What is important is that, for all its advantages, the timber is not very expensive material and in the price range it seems realistic for purchase by the majority of those interested, even with an average income level.
With the help of the elements already prepared on the beams for fastening, it will be relatively easy to assemble a house from them. But do not forget that profiled timber is a wood-based material, and, like any wooden object, it can present unpleasant surprises in the form of fungus or mold contained on it. Of course, this can be avoided by timely treating the timber with special mixtures to protect the surface from the effects of negative environmental factors.
Profiled timber has virtually no problems with cracks, but circumstances vary, so if damage to any timber element is detected - renovation work should be carried out immediately, since the cracks in the timber are gradually expanding. This is especially true for floors and ceilings made using timber.
If the cobblestone house is located in a region with a permanently cold climate, you should also take care of additional insulation all its elements.
The initial stage of building any house is drawing up a project; a house built from profiled timber with your own hands is no exception. If you wish to use the services construction company still hasn't appeared, you can draw the project yourself. In this case, you should immediately understand that best period when can construction begin? winter time year. When harvesting wood in the cold and then drying it for a long time at home, the timber will be of the highest quality and will shrink evenly. However, abuse weather conditions It’s not worth it - excessive frost will make the timber brittle.
Alternatively, you can already purchase ready-made bars in accordance with individual requirements to building material. In this case, the grooves will already be cut, and building a house from profiled timber will become simple, as if you just need to put together a children's construction set.
Before you begin the process of laying the foundation for the future cobblestone house, you need to familiarize yourself with the conditions of the area where it will be located, find out on what basis the foundation of neighboring houses is made, especially if they also use profiled timber as a basis.
The ideal option for a house made of timber would be a strip foundation of the following types:
Construction scheme strip foundation looks with a shallow depression as follows:
The construction of each building begins with the creation of a row for subsequent laying on an already processed and leveled waterproofing foundation. For the floor, timber with a cross-sectional size of 100*50 millimeters is used. After the first row of the floor is ready, it must be treated with an antiseptic substance to increase the resistance of the material negative factors external environment. Next, the floor joists are mounted and laid on the edge.
After the logs are laid, they will need to be left in this condition for 1-2 days to adapt to the ambient temperature. The logs are laid according to a guideline, which can be set as follows: between the logs initially fixed at two opposite walls, a tie made of nylon thread is made every 1.5 meters.
Advice! The gaps that will form between the lags can subsequently be used to fill with insulation. The best way to do this is to use polyurethane foam or mineral wool.
After laying the logs, the installation of the subfloor and installation of floor boards follows. He's packing in various ways: with or without offset. It is necessary to first lay the initial layer, and then carry out the installation wooden flooring at him. Don’t forget about waterproofing: it will be laid on rough foundation future gender. Penofol or dense polyethylene are perfect for this.
Finally, you need to lay the floor, for which any material is suitable, for example, a tongue-and-groove board 3.6 centimeters thick.
The scheme for constructing the walls of a cobblestone house from profiled timber with your own hands is simple: you need to lay out rows of beams sequentially, and each next row is joined to the previous one using pins vertical connection- dowels. The dowels are installed according to the brick laying method: through 2-3 rows, one after another. For dowels, several holes are drilled, up to 3.5 centimeters in diameter, at a distance of 1.5 meters from each other.
It will be necessary to cut out a protrusion in one of the beams, and a groove of the appropriate size in the second. In some layers, grooves and tenons alternate with each other, which makes the structure much more durable and eliminates blowing from the corners.
When the dimensions of the structure being constructed exceed 6*6 meters, at least one partition must be placed on the ground floor - it will provide additional support for the floor of the upper floor.
The last point is that in those places where windows are installed, you will need to cut out technological openings. Air will move through them while the material dries, and when the house finally settles, it will be possible to install windows. The material for window blocks can be metal, plastic or wood.
The environmental friendliness of wood and the microclimate inside the house make wooden houses very popular. Wood retains heat well, looks great and is not expensive. Currently, several types of timber are produced.
Regular timber is produced on a circular saw by cutting 2-4 parts from a log. The timber is then dried in natural conditions or in drying chambers.
Glued laminated timber is produced by gluing together dried boards. Then the resulting material is processed on profiling or rounding machines. As a result, the timber is very durable, does not crack over time, and a house built from laminated timber practically does not shrink. Perhaps its only drawback is the high price.
The most inexpensive and easiest to install is profiled timber. Profiled timber is made from wood coniferous species wood: pine, spruce, larch and cedar. Unlike ordinary timber, it has a groove(s) on one side and a tenon(s) on the opposite side. The grooves are made to simplify the assembly of the house and provide a tighter and better connection. The remaining two sides are planed smooth, either rounded to resemble a log, or have a slight chamfer.
For construction country house made of profiled timber, you should pay attention to its moisture content. It is best to purchase dried timber with a moisture content of no more than 20%. It is easier to build walls from dry material and it will not move after assembly. After purchasing building material, in order to avoid the accumulation of excess moisture, you should not allow long term storing it, and immediately begin assembling the box at home.
If you decide to use timber natural humidity, then it is best to buy material that was harvested in winter, since the movement of sap during this period stops, and there is no excess moisture in the wood.
The house design is chosen based on personal ideas about what country housing should be like, and, of course, financial capabilities. You can buy the project from the relevant companies or draw it yourself. But in any case, it is necessary to coordinate it with the administration of the area where the house is planned to be built and obtain all the necessary permits. After obtaining permission, you must contact the woodworking enterprise where profiled timber is produced and order the amount of building material corresponding to the project.
In the meantime, the material is being prepared in production, it is necessary to prepare the foundation for the future country house. Upon purchase finished project At home, there should be no problems with choosing the type of foundation. And when independent development it is necessary to calculate all the pros and cons of the project different types foundation. The most preferred type of foundation for a house with year-round use is belt type. This foundation is reliable and can withstand loads from two-story house made of timber and when building it with your own hands is not so expensive.
So, the first thing you need to do is determine the location on the site for construction and carry out the markings. Houses look beautiful when the foundation (basement) protrudes slightly beyond the wall, so the pegs need to be driven 5-10 cm further (to make the foundation wider) than the size of the house itself. Of course, this will entail additional costs for concrete, but it will not only provide beautiful view, but also uniform distribution of the load on the foundation from the house. Interior the foundation should also protrude beyond the wall. The floor joists will subsequently rest on the inner ledge. Let's give a simple example: under a house made of timber 150 mm wide, it is necessary to pour a foundation 300 mm wide, outer part which will protrude beyond the wall by 50 mm, and inside by 100 mm.
We mark the perimeter of the house by stretching ropes between the pegs. If the house has interior walls made of timber of the same size as the external ones, then under them it is necessary to pour the same foundation as the main one. A trench is dug with a width equal to the width of the foundation and a depth of 70-80 cm. You should not dig a wide trench; in the future, this can lead to inconvenience in installing the formwork, and even to a simple waste of concrete. It is necessary to make a sand cushion under the foundation. To do this, the bottom of the dug trench is covered with 15-20 cm of sand and compacted well with a tamper or by pouring copious amounts of water.
Formwork consists of wooden panels assembled from edged or unedged boards 25 mm thick and 150 mm wide. The sufficient height of the foundation from ground level is three together assembled boards, that is, 45 cm. It’s not worth saving and making a lower foundation for a wooden house, because otherwise lower crowns the log house will get wet from splashes of falling raindrops and evaporation from the ground, and in the spring-winter period - from melting snow.
After assembling the shields, they are installed in place of the dug trench opposite each other and fastened together. In the upper part, the boards are secured using a block, which is placed on top of the formwork and screwed with one screw to one board, and another to the other. In the middle and at the bottom, the shields are fastened together with thick wire. To do this, each shield is drilled opposite each other in the place of transverse fastening of the boards, a thick knitting wire is inserted into the resulting holes, the ends of which are twisted together from the outside. Inside the formwork, a thick screwdriver or a long nail is inserted between the wires and twisted together, controlling the distance between the panels with a jig. After twisting the wire, the conductor block is taken out, and a firmly fastened formwork is obtained, which does not require side support pegs. After installing all the panels and assembling the formwork, it is necessary to check its horizontalness using a laser or water level.
Expert opinion! It is best to immediately level the formwork and pour concrete, leveling it according to its level. top edge. In this case, we immediately get a perfectly level foundation horizontally and will avoid further problems with its leveling.
Now you need to lay and tie the reinforcement. For the foundation of a house, it is best to use reinforcement with a diameter of at least 12 mm. For a foundation with a width of 300 mm and a total height of 1 meter, three reinforcement belts of two rods each will be sufficient. If the reinforcement turns out to be short and you have to add more, then the overlap between each other should be at least 30 times the diameter of the rod itself. That is, if 12-diameter reinforcement is used, then the overlap should be 12*30=360 mm. The reinforcement is connected to each other with knitting wire.
Before pouring concrete, it is necessary to provide places in the foundation where there will be holes for ventilation of the subfloor. For these purposes they usually use asbestos cement pipes. They are sawed off to the size of the foundation and installed inside the formwork. To prevent the pipes from floating during the concrete pouring process, they are secured with nails or self-tapping screws.
All preparatory work completed, concrete can be poured. During and after pouring, it is necessary to “tap” the formwork with a hammer. This is done to release air from the concrete. After pouring top part the foundation is leveled with a trowel.
IN summer period the formwork can be removed after three days and within two weeks the walls of the house can be erected from profiled timber.
During the construction of the foundation, materials, or rather profiled timber, were already manufactured in production and delivered to the site. Now you need to assemble the box of the house as quickly as possible and cover it with a roof.
Laying on the foundation waterproofing material and already he has the first crown ( bottom trim) Houses. For the first crown of the house, you can use ordinary timber.
Further, the installation process is similar to assembling a children's construction set. The beams are laid on top of each other and are fastened together with wooden or metal dowels to prevent displacement. To do this, the timber must be drilled and a dowel inserted into the resulting hole.
Thus, several rows are fastened at once. Insulation must be laid between the rows.
In the corners, the beam can be connected both with and without remainder. This point can be resolved at the stage of timber production, at the factory, and order the most suitable option corner connection or do it yourself. In any case, in order to avoid heat loss, the corner connection must be warm and made using a tongue-and-groove system.
If the house has two floors, then upon completion of the construction of the first, interfloor beams of preferably large cross-section (150*150 mm) are laid on top of the walls, at a distance of no more than 60 cm from each other. Next, the process continues in the same order as during the construction of the walls of the first floor.
After completing the construction of the walls, the installation of the rafter system begins. Most often on country houses do gable roofs with an inclination angle of at least 30°. 150*50 mm boards are used as rafters. They are assembled in the shape of the letter A and installed on the walls. First, the outer rafters are placed, a guideline (strong thread) is pulled between them, and then all the rest. The rafters are attached to the wall using corners or 300 mm nails. In the case of an insulated roof, a vapor barrier material is stretched along the rafters, and then installed wooden sheathing. A ventilated gap must be left between the sheathing and the vapor barrier.
Why nail the counter batten along the rafters, and then the sheathing itself. It is already possible to lay sheet metal on such a sheathing. roofing material(profiled sheets, metal tiles). And for soft roof you will have to make a solid base from plywood.
The box is under the roof, you can go inside almost finished house. The initial task is to make the floors. To do this, floor joists are laid on the protruding part of the foundation at a distance of 60 cm from each other.
You should not save on them and purchase 150*150 timber for these purposes. We nail 150*50 mm boards to the wall on one side and the other, and arrange the subfloor.
We lay vapor barrier material between the beams, and then insulation. We cover the insulation on top vapor barrier material, provide a ventilated gap and lay floorboard. We obtain the gap by hammering a block onto the joists. Insulation of interfloor ceilings occurs in the same way.
A house made of profiled timber with your own hands will shrink. That's all for this finishing work, in addition to those described, it is necessary to carry out only after complete shrinkage.
Depending on the thickness of the selected timber, further costs for its heating and the degree of its further insulation depend. Profiled timber is produced planed and does not require additional finishing except antiseptic treatment and painting.

Modern house made of profiled timber - this is a very reliable structure with high performance characteristics. The naturalness of the material makes this option much more attractive than most others, and the possibility of realizing any plans will allow you to bring the most original ideas to life. In this review, we will look at what nuances should be taken into account during the assembly process and what criteria should be used when choosing a specific option.
First, let's figure out what advantages profiled timber has:
Environmental friendliness | Wood – renewable natural material, which does not provide negative impact on human health and environment. The property of the material to absorb moisture from the air and release it allows you to always maintain indoors optimal microclimate, therefore living in such a house has a positive effect on the body |
Budgeting | The price of this material is quite attractive, and the quality is much better than conventional unprocessed materials. Experts have calculated that total costs the cost of building a house from profiled timber will be lower than when using brick or other materials |
Ease of operation | Assembling a house from profiled timber with your own hands is quite possible, but it is important to take into account one recommendation - buy ready set for this or that project, then you will have instructions at hand, and with the help of several people you will be able to cope with the work in a fairly short period of time |
Attractiveness | If you purchased high-quality processed material, then the interior decoration of a house made of profiled timber will consist only of applying a decorative and protective coating. You do not need to spend time and very substantial funds on purchasing finishing materials, which further increases the attractiveness of the project |
Important!
Remember one simple recommendation: during the work process, handle the elements carefully, do not walk on them or place them on dirty surfaces, otherwise you will later have to remove all these contaminants using sandpaper.
It is much easier to be careful and not do unnecessary work.
