Timber structures are widely used in Europe, the USA, and Japan. In Russia, prefabricated buildings are often ordered by gardeners for summer living in their dachas. However, technology is developing and now you can live in such a house all year round.
Main advantages
- Prefabricated garden houses have advantages over similar buildings made from other materials:
- Quick assembly on a pre-prepared foundation.
- Turnkey construction from scratch can take just a few days.
- Construction does not require complex equipment, special knowledge or skills. Technology similar to the Lego principle allows you to assemble the structure yourself.
- You can choose a building material based on price and quality: laminated veneer lumber, chamber drying, mini beam.
- Natural, environmentally friendly materials do not emit harmful substances and durable. To increase their service life, they are treated with special compounds.
- Modern design does garden house IR decoration of any area. You can order several buildings to create a single style, for example, for a utility block, country toilet, the main house in which the family will live.
Purpose of buildings
Depending on the size, shape, internal layout, number of floors, garden houses are used for different purposes.
Types of buildings:
- one-story or two-story residential buildings;
- single, double or triple utility units;
- summer kitchens;
- garage sheds;
- gazebos.
The most popular option is buildings of a combined type. Small buildings solve many household problems and do not take up much space on the site. They store gardening tools and equip a toilet, shower or recreation area.

Owning a house outside the city is the longed-for dream of most residents of modern megacities. But the construction of a permanent stone cottage costs a decent amount. Garden houses made of timber cost several times less, they can be erected in one season and, with proper care, they will serve for at least 30 - 40 years.
The whole question is how to choose and install a garden house made of profiled timber. And this is what our article is about.
What are the benefits of wooden cottages?
As mentioned earlier, buildings of this kind are several times cheaper than brick or block structures.
An average garden house made of 6x6 timber can cost up to half a million rubles.
- This structure can be assembled within one season. A. Moreover, many specialized construction organizations They undertake to build a house in 1 – 2 weeks.
- After leaving city apartment, a person wants to be as close to nature as possible, and in this regard, a garden house made of profiled timber is almost ideal. After all, wood is a natural, environmentally friendly material and relaxing in such a home is not only pleasant, but also useful.
- Now you don't need to think about how to build. Typical designs for garden houses made of timber are striking in their diversity. Moreover, most of these projects provide step-by-step instruction for installation, thanks to which you can assemble a garden house made of timber with your own hands like a children's construction set.
Projects garden houses made of timber are divided into several types:
- The simplest and most accessible, of course, is frame project. Such a house can only partially be called a timber house, because the timber here is used exclusively for the arrangement of load-bearing structures. The rest of the space is made from sheet material, most often plywood, with insulation on the inside.
- Profiled monolithic wooden beams are used more often. Supporters of such structures point to their 100% naturalness, but the shrinkage of such walls is higher, plus there is a high probability that they may suffer in the future.
- Glued laminated timber appeared relatively recently and is a multi-layer beam glued together from individual planks. Shrinkage here will be minimal; such houses are much more durable than their competitors, but the price of this material is higher.
- Garden houses made from mini timber have an optimal price/quality ratio. The thickness of the tongue-and-groove beam here fluctuates around 50 mm. Such structures have a two-layer structure. External and internal surfaces are assembled from wooden mini-beams; from the inside, the space is filled with environmentally friendly insulation.
Briefly about the intricacies of construction
Before starting construction, you should think through everything to the smallest detail. First of all, the size of the structure itself, how many people the house is planned for. An important issue is its location on the site.
And naturally, it’s better to decide right away whether you need a dacha only for summer holiday or visits are expected all year round. The type of construction will depend on this.
Selecting a project and installation location
For wooden structures An important factor is their location on the site. If the dacha is located on rough terrain, then it is better to build the building at the highest point of the site. Moisture will always collect in the lowlands and, as a result, additional costs will be required for waterproofing and.
Ideally, the structure is installed at the highest point of the site, and on the north or north-west side. With this arrangement, the lawns and beds at the dacha will not be shaded by the house.
Garden one-story houses made of timber should have a spacious dry attic. It will come in handy for storage gardening tools or drying mushrooms, berries and various herbs, and if necessary, you can arrange a hayloft there.
Important: experienced summer residents advise making sure to provide a covered veranda on the ground floor; whether to glaze it or not is a matter of taste.
In open areas wood flooring It will be damp from snow and rain, plus additional arrangement of some light awnings will be required.
If a garden house made of profiled timber is intended to be used only in summer, and there is Summer shower and a toilet, then there is no point in equipping an additional bathroom, taking up usable space in the house.
Advice: it is better to make a two-story garden house made of profiled timber without a balcony.
It will only bring you additional expenses; it is difficult to see any landscape from a height of 3–4 meters, but you will have to constantly remove it from snow and foliage.
Arranging a permanent basement makes sense if the house is heated. For a summer cottage, a small semi-underground room under the house or on the site will be sufficient for temporary storage of vegetables and canning.
Laying the foundation
Lungs wooden buildings do not require a capital foundation. On dry soils, it is enough to lay a shallow, up to half a meter, strip. On heaving and wet soils ideal option there will be a bookmark columnar foundation with strapping with a metal channel or wooden beam. It makes sense to lay a strip-column foundation only if you are constructing a basement under the house.
The pillars are laid to a depth slightly exceeding the freezing level of the soil. As pillars, you can use metal piles, screws or asbestos-cement pipes filled with reinforced concrete from the inside. As an economical option, you can use a pipe rolled from roofing felt, into which a reinforcement cage is inserted and concrete is poured.
Important: the foundation for a fireplace or brick stove is built separately, at a distance of at least 150 mm from the main one.
The primary piping and floor must be isolated from the foundation; as a rule, roofing felt is used for this. In addition, if you do not want to find a damp house in the spring, the floors should be made of two layers with mandatory heat and waterproofing padding between the layers.
Installation of walls and roof
As mentioned earlier, walls can be assembled from monolithic or laminated veneer lumber. Projects of garden houses made of timber include the use wooden beams section 150x100 mm or 150x150 mm. For summer designs this is quite enough. But winter option requires additional external thermal insulation.
In this case, a mini-timber garden house is simply universal. As a rule, it is made double-circuit. Theoretically, it is possible to assemble a single-layer structure without insulation, but such a house will not last long, it will get damp, it will be hot there in the summer, winter use in this case it is not provided at all.
The distance between the internal and external contour is determined depending on the thickness of the selected insulation, but it cannot be less than 100 mm. The advantage of such buildings is that they do not require additional internal and external cladding. It is enough to process the wood protective compounds. Plus, the low weight of the beams allows you to assemble a garden house from timber with your own hands.
All types of such structures are assembled as a constructor. Projects of garden houses made of timber have a planking, this is a drawing that indicates the exact location of each beam. In turn, all beams have markings, which can be used to determine in which row and in what place it should be installed.
The roof is made of two types: gable or broken for the attic. Garden one-story houses made of timber are being equipped gable roof with a large angle of inclination. IN two-story buildings, the top floor is most often made in the form of an attic.
Conclusion
As you can see, it is not difficult to assemble a garden house from timber with your own hands, but if you don’t have great experience V wooden architecture, then first spend a little time studying construction materials. This way you can avoid unnecessary mistakes.
Preface
You can build a house in the country for quite some time with your own hands from timber or boards, or you can buy a ready-made kit, made individually or standard project, and quickly assemble a beautiful building.
Wooden houses made of profiled or planed timber are unique in terms of their environmental friendliness, indoor microclimate, low cost and speed of construction. In most cases, a house can be completely built within one month. Ready-made structures are lightweight, so a complex foundation is also not required. Specialized companies can offer a variety of projects, using which you can build a one-story garden house or a more serious structure with an attic.
Implement inexpensive project building a country house is not difficult. Let's consider the first option, in which the material undergoes pre-processing and preparation for assembly. Before starting construction, you must ensure that all project documentation, decide on the purpose of the building, the location of construction and the possibility of laying communications.
Any construction of country houses made of wood, even small-sized ones, begins with preparation. Ready-made ones can be purchased at construction company or compose it yourself. For this you need:
- A detailed plan diagram with a precise indication of all dimensions, including the dimensions of individual rooms;
- Visual drawings of the structural connection of profiled timber, in places where wall blocks are tied and mated, as well as in places where floor supports and rafter system;
- A visual cross-sectional drawing of the finished structure, indicating the lower and upper elevations of the foundation of a country house, the vertical location of the floor and the height of the room to the ceiling structure;
- Schemes and designs of communications, their exit points and, if possible, connection points to highways.
Typically, construction from profiled timber or tongue-and-groove boards implies a wall length of no more than 10 meters. Such country houses can have a veranda or attic, one-story or higher. But, in any case, before construction begins, careful planning and preparation of the area for laying the foundation is carried out. Further work consist in the construction frame structure and filling wall blocks.
When using profiled timber, buildings are erected according to the type of constructor. All products are manufactured at the factory according to the design. necessary elements houses with the necessary cuts. They are treated with appropriate compounds, dried and labeled. At the construction site, all that remains is to assemble all the parts according to the design drawings.
The finished foundation, that is, its upper horizontal plane, is covered with a layer of roofing material, thus providing waterproofing. After which the lower trim or the first crown is installed. Having adjusted all the parts and secured them to the foundation, you can begin installing the next rows. Considering that all logs are numbered in the required order, and the project has a specification and layout plan, it is possible to assemble garden houses from prepared profiled timber in a short time.
If you do not resort to using ready-made wall elements, then the construction process from profiled or ordinary timber may drag on for a long time. You will have to make the cuts and joints of the logs yourself and, after laying each crown, fit them tightly to each other. After assembling walls from profiled or planed timber, it is necessary to wait a certain period of time, during which the entire structure will shrink and the timber will adapt to the surrounding conditions.
The roof of a country house built from profiled timber can have the most different shape. The main thing is to make the calculation correctly, taking into account the load exerted by the roof and rafter system on the supporting structures of the house. The same timber and boards are used as the ceiling. Rafter legs are made from edged boards with a thickness of at least 2.5 mm, placed on edge. One end of the rafters rests on the upper crown of the log house. Top ends rafter legs contact ridge beam with adjacent and opposite similar elements.
The ceiling of the building must be insulated. For this purpose they are used modern materials(mineral wool boards, polystyrene foam, polystyrene foam) or traditional bulk materials - expanded clay, sawdust, slag. Boards are also used to line the ceiling from inside the room. After installing the ceiling, you can move on to laying the floor.
Lay him out edged boards thickness of at least 45 mm on logs installed in advance on foundation blocks and embedded in bottom trim walls All elements load-bearing structure wooden floors must be impregnated antiseptic compounds. Laying finishing boards is necessary only after there is a strong and leak-free roof over the house.
After assembly, country houses made of profiled timber are treated with various impregnations, after which, if necessary, you can begin interior decoration. The pre-treated material has an already beautiful internal and appearance. When building a house from ordinary timber, finishing with outside can be made by clapboard made of wood or other finishing materials.
This fastening method allows for a strong connection between tongue-and-groove boards, creating reliable structures. The products are carefully processed, so the front surface of country houses assembled from this material also does not require additional decoration.
A house made of wood using tongue and groove boards is ready-made kit different products, which, in the likeness of a children's construction set, are assembled into a garden summer house. In each product, all the necessary cutouts and protrusions are made in the factory, which make it possible to assemble the building quickly and easily on the construction site. House designs also undergo careful development, which subsequently allows for the most precise connections to be made and to ensure tight fit.
The weight load on the foundation of a garden house made of tongue-and-groove boards is 60 and even 70% less than houses made of timber. Therefore, you can use a lightweight version of the foundation by making columns from concrete blocks or supports from asbestos-cement pipes.
When installing structures made of tongue-and-groove boards, it is necessary to provide for the location of several ventilation holes in the lower part of the structure. As a rule, this is included in projects. The joists for the subframe, pre-impregnated with antiseptic, are attached to the foundation at the same distance. Before starting to connect all the elements of the house, the accuracy of the layout must be checked. To prevent displacement under wind load frame beams are attached with metal corners to the foundation.
Wall blocks made from tongue-and-groove boards are mounted according to the attached diagram, where each board has its own number in the layout plan. First, half-pieces of the rear and front walls are installed, secured with screws to the foundation beam. Then comes the turn of the wall blocks. The first row of laying tongue and groove boards should slightly overlap the foundation beam, protruding a few millimeters above it. This provides protection bearing block from dampness. Having laid out the first crown, you need to tap it around the entire perimeter with a striking block, and only after that begin laying out the next rows. Supervise the installation of all rows by the construction level.
Installation doorways in such designs, according to technology, it starts with 5 or 6 crowns. In this regard, there are strict rules: any doors must open outward, and window systems, tilting and turning, must open inward. Adjustment of opening sashes and doors is carried out 3 weeks after construction.
Wooden garden houses made from tongue-and-groove boards have a simple roof structure. After assembling the walls, pediments from ready-made parts are installed. They have special grooves into which the elements of the rafter system are placed. The only important thing here is to make sure that everything wooden parts structures: pediments, Wall panels– were in the same plane and tightly connected to each other. For reliability, all connecting elements are tapped with a mallet. After final assembly the necessary finishing work is being carried out.
Wooden houses are practical in any design. Both presented options have their own positive sides, and the choice of one method or another is yours. We can add that, having made a quality one, you can stay in it until late autumn.
