Log houses are very environmentally friendly. This very reliable dwelling, which also retains the smells of the forest. Over time, the smells will disappear, but in the first few years the owners of such a house will live in comfort. The most important problem of such houses is low fire resistance. But if you treat such a house with a special solution that protects against fire, then there is nothing to fear. The construction of wooden houses today is very popular.
During the construction of a house from a log, most often they take a pine and larch. It is easier to process the pine, since its wood is soft, smooth and light barrel. But larch is more resistant to decay. But this tree has a very dense wood and therefore it will be much harder to breathe in such a house than in a pine house. Most often, baths are being built from larch. Very often during construction use spruce and cedar.
In the construction of log houses, trimmed or galled logs are used. Here, great attention should be paid to the fitting of logs to each other. For this, a groove is made in one of the logs, and the bulge of another log is placed in this groove. This is called a “seizure” and, if the “seizure” is performed correctly, then thermal losses are reduced and sound insulation improves. In this case, the logs are fastened with special spikes or metal rods. Log house is built in several stages. The first stage – the log house gathers on the ground, without pacley. The logs are marked, then the log house is disassembled, then they are assembled again, but now on the foundation, while laying the joints of Pacley. However, after that, the log house should stand under the roof for a year, and only then can you put partitions and lay the floor. But after time, the logs will be shrunken, and the house will give a sediment. Therefore, after a certain period, you will have to again lay in the joints. And do this every time as soon as they noticed that the house gave a sediment. You can use logic logs, and at the same time rolled intervention heater of linen or burning. Log houses are useful and comfortable, but in our time they are not so popular. This is the imprint and expensive carpentry work. And logs require high -quality processing.
