The realization of a long-standing dream - to escape from a stuffy, dusty city was the construction of a 6 x 8 frame house. independent implementation of your project.

Layout plan of a frame house 6 x 8

As usual, before you start doing what, you should at least have a general idea of ​​what needs to be done, from what and in what volume. All these questions can be answered. If you decide to completely manage on your own, then you will have to complete all the steps yourself:

• layout;
• Constructive decisions;
• choice of heating method;
• do not overlook the wiring of electricians and plumbing;
• the choice of materials for the implementation of all elements of the house.

A separate point should be mentioned the coordination of the project and obtaining a building permit. But here, as they say, everyone decides for himself to go the official way or act at his own peril and risk.

After much deliberation on the topic of how much space is needed for living, it was decided to stop at the variant of a 6 x 8 frame house with an attic. The first floor is full-fledged residential, the second - attic. Small architectural excesses - a balcony and a "cuckoo" in a simple gable roof.

Using the simplest graphic editors, you can draw layouts:

To visualize the idea, it is already necessary to use specialized software. It, as a rule, also contains a library with 6 x 8 frame house projects, from where you can get some ideas.

General view of a small frame house 6x8.

I took as a basis, on which frame houses are built in North America and Scandinavia. By construct:

• wall thickness - 15 cm;
• rafter thickness - 20 cm;
• overlap - 15 cm;
• mineral wool and penoplex are adopted as a heater.

Start of construction of a frame house 6x8. Foundation works

The best time to start building is spring. Then the whole warm season is ahead - you can do a lot before the onset of cold weather. But due to a number of circumstances, work began only in September.

Since the load from a turnkey frame two-story house 6 x 8 with an attic is small and the soil is non-porous (sandy loam), the choice was stopped on a strip monolithic foundation:

• laying depth - 50 cm;
• plinth height - 50 cm;
• tape width - 40 cm.

Reinforcement with a diameter of 12 mm was used to reinforce the concrete. Two armored belts are made in three bars. The rods were connected by tying a binding wire.

The formwork for pouring the tape is made of centimeter plywood and 50 x 50 bars. In total, 18m3 of concrete was required for pouring.

To ensure the possibility of access of construction equipment to the place of pouring the foundation, the entrance to the site was previously backfilled and a drainage pipe was installed in the embankment. I also had to hire a tractor to level the construction site and dig a trench for the foundation.

The top layer of soil inside the foundation is taken out. Geotextiles were laid and a layer of expanded clay was poured. Approximately took about 5 m3. The purpose of this operation was to remove rotting organic matter from the underground and warm the soil.

After complete solidification, the tape is treated with Bitumast waterproofing mastic weighing 21.5 kg. Coating was done by hand with a brush.

An important nuance - in reality, the consumption of mastic is two times more than stated.

According to the instructions, one bucket is enough for 100m / 2. The waterproofing of the basement took almost everything without a trace, although the area there is clearly smaller.

Since the rains were approaching, in order to create more or less tolerable conditions for the continuation of work, it was necessary to buy a second-hand banner and erect some kind of awning over the construction site.

In parallel, a larch board was purchased to make lining under. The foundation had to be slightly topped up with cement to bring it to “0”. When pouring the foundation, small differences of up to 2 centimeters in height were obtained.

Lay 2 layers of Technoelast EPP insulation along the upper edge of the tape. On top of it is a lining board. At the final stage, we fasten all this with anchors to the surface of the foundation.

Everything. The foundation for the construction of a two-story frame house 6 x 8 is ready. Now you can proceed to the implementation of the floor frame and walls directly.

The erection of the walls of a karkan house 6x8

On the lining board, the lower strapping and floor logs are carried out. The cross section of the boards is 150 x 50. The material is the same larch. All connections of parts are laid with polyethylene foam gaskets.

The boards are connected to each other using galvanized self-tapping screws 100 x 5 and, if necessary, fixing perforated corners.

The lower trim is made of two parallel boards installed at a distance of 10 cm. The boards are connected to each other at the corners of the foundation tape and along its entire length every 1 - 1.5 meters. The space between them is densely filled with insulation. In terms of strength, such a design is practically not inferior to a solid beam of similar dimensions or several boards spliced ​​in thickness.

In order to be able to work comfortably and safely, OSB boards 18 mm thick were laid on the logs. With the role of the subfloor, as subsequent events showed, they did an excellent job.

Now it's time to assemble the first wall. The frame is assembled from a pine board 150 x 50. The installation step of the vertical racks is 60 cm. In some places it turned out less - then you will have to cut the insulation along. To ensure the spatial rigidity of the structure, it is imperative to install jibs. Otherwise, the whole structure can develop like a house of cards.

We lay Isoplat between the lower trim and the wall of the first floor. This insert will improve the soundproofing properties of the frame.

The installation of the wall ended already after dark, but very successfully.

Construction is progressing slowly. The awning does its job - protects from rain. Another wall has been erected. There is progress.

At the end of October, all walls and internal partitions of the first floor were installed

Ladder to the next second floor completed.

Purchased, brought and stored materials and components for flexible roofing. The construction of the frame of the pediment begins - a ridge beam is installed.

The role of the roof is still performed by the banner. Even though it's cold, it's dry. As materials are purchased and brought in, they are stored inside the house and under the awning overhangs.

Interfloor overlap is made of the same boards 150 x 50, connected by jumpers. As a result, neat cells were obtained, where mineral wool will then be installed during insulation.

Slowly, the frame of the gables, internal partitions of the second floor and the truss system are being built.

The cross section of the rafters is 150 x 50. The installation step is 60 cm. We install jumpers between them every 80 cm. This will subsequently save time and material when insulating the roof. In the resulting cells, it will simply remain to tightly install the insulation mats.

Roof structure:

• wind protection is laid over the rafters (Corotop film, density 140 g/m2);
• bar 50 x 50;
• inch crate;
• plywood 12 mm thick;
• soft roof (bituminous tiles).

We are finishing the roof. The 6 x 8 frame house is gradually taking on recognizable shapes.

The windows that got in the way under their feet finally waited in the wings. To finish off all the work with the roof, skylights were first installed. Then came the turn of the windows on the ground floor:

• hall - four windows 1500 x 1500, single-chamber, one hinged, two - tilt-and-turn;
• bedroom - one window 1500 x 800, single-chamber, tilt-and-turn;
• bathroom - two windows 1500 x 600 and 500 x 600;
• porch - 1500 x 600.

The last to be brought and installed were the central window and the balcony door for the second floor.

The windows were brought in in several passes. As they arrived, they were installed.

It's already cold outside - winter. To heat the premises, a 5 kW Artox heat gun was purchased. In order not to heat the street, empty door and window openings have to be temporarily blocked with improvised materials.

At the time of construction of the door - makeshift plywood. After the completion of the interior and most of the exterior decoration, there are already decent

The project of a 6 x 8 frame house with an attic provides for insulation with Rockwool LightButts mineral wool. Looking ahead, I would like to say that in total it took about 40 m3 of insulation. This is not so little, and it is necessary to think over the logistics of the delivery, placement and use of the material in advance.

Before installing the insulation inside the frame, care must be taken that it does not fall out. To do this, from the outside, we sheathe the entire structure with Isoplat. This material simultaneously performs the functions of wind protection, sound insulation and additional thermal insulation.

The size of the mats is 600 x 800 x 50. Thanks to the pre-set pitch of the racks in the frame, the whole process looks quite simple:

• print out the package;
• we install a heater between the support bars in the spacer;
• if the sizes do not match (unfortunately, it turned out, and so) we cut it with a construction knife to the desired size.

Thickness is achieved by installing mats close to each other. On the walls - three mats (total thickness 15 cm), roof - four (20 cm).

Separate story. An integrated insulation scheme was used (the joint use of foam and mineral wool).

Floor Pie:

• penoplex 50 mm;
• mineral wool - 100 mm;
• vapor barrier Corotop;
• OSB - 18mm.

Even at the initial stage, inch boards were nailed to the underside of the log, acting as cranial bars. Penoplex will rely on the formed protrusions.

Since the material is not afraid of moisture, no insulation is required from the underground. Penoplex plates are cut to size with a hacksaw and installed between the lags.

Along the perimeter of the sheets and joints, where we had to gain space from scraps of material, we carry out sealing with mounting foam. We cut off the frozen excess with a knife. It turns out a continuous heat-insulating layer.

Lay a layer of mineral wool on top. The principles are the same - dense installation and laying with an offset so that the seams do not intersect.

We cover the surface of the insulation with a vapor barrier. This will help protect it in the future from moisture from the room. At the very end, we spread the Vibrostek strips along the lags and install the OSB back and fix it with self-tapping screws.

The floor of the attic floor is insulated a little differently:

• we hem the ceiling of the attic floor with Tyvek vapor barrier;
• the Isoplat plate is fixed;
• from the side of the attic, 15 cm of Rockwool are laid inside the ceiling;
• from above, we close the entire layer again with thermal insulation;
• we lay strips of Vibrostek 4 mm thick along the lags.

We lay a draft floor from OSB 18 mm (the ceiling above the bathroom and bath in a two-story frame house 6 x 8 is made of two layers of waterproof plywood 12 mm thick).

Heating and ventilation of a frame house

Projects of frame country houses 6 x 8 necessarily provide for a source of heating. And this building is no exception.

The main source of heat is a wood burning stove. Gas is not planned yet, you can cook on electricity, and a burning fireplace is just beautiful.

Under the furnace, even at the stage of foundation work, a small patch was poured, not connected with the main foundation. The dimensions of the base are 1.2 x 1.4 m. The height of the base is comparable to the tape. Half a meter buried in the ground and the same outside.

Start - the base of the furnace

The work of the master is arguing, and the turn of the installation of the combustion chamber and the screen quickly enough came. Fireplace door Pisla 510 got relatively cheap for 15 thousand. I managed to find it on sale.

Gradually, the laying of the fireplace is moving forward. Watching the work of specialists is a pleasure.

The future furnace has almost grown to the ceiling. There are no severe frosts yet, which is very pleasing. And inspires some optimism.

It so fortunately coincided that the last windows and the first fire coincided. Let's do the first run. Since the stoves still need to be settled, we heat them without fanaticism - carefully so as not to spoil all the work.

For three hours of the firebox, the temperature in the room rose by sensations of 10 - 15 ° C. Given that the thermal insulation of the house is not yet fully completed, there is no vestibule and instead of the front door there is plywood on hinges covered with a blanket, the result is quite decent.

Now is the time to talk about, in fact, it is a sealed thermos. If there is no ventilation, then at best the air will be musty and stale. In the worst case, the insulation and wooden elements will begin to dampen.

For the ventilation system, I purchased a Domen Regio heat exchanger with a capacity of 250m3/hour and a set of air ducts. The installation allows, in my opinion, to perform the most important function - to regulate the performance and, if necessary, to heat the supplied air. Heating is carried out using a built-in heating element of 1 kW. The maximum temperature of the supplied air can reach + 30°C.

In practice, it looks like this:

• we leave for a long time - we set the power of the installation to 5 - 10%;
• We return - we translate into a full-fledged working mode.

Installation of the heat exchanger on vibration suspensions, wiring of air ducts and commissioning of the ventilation system was carried out by specialists of the company where the equipment was ordered. It should be noted that the system has started working, there is a slight heating and the impressions so far are the most positive.

Installation of ventilation ducts in a frame house.

Another thing to talk about is electricity. The input to the house was carried out with a 5 x 6 cable. Accordingly, the following were purchased and installed:

• bipolar input machine;
• switchboard ABB;
• distribution boxes and slats;
• automatic machines 16-40A (10 pcs).

Wiring inside the house is carried out in a metal hose inside the walls. The passage through the power elements of the frame is made through pre-drilled holes.

The interior decoration was made of my favorite material - wood. Although sometimes a worm of doubt crept in, who wanted drywall and wallpaper. They say it's simpler and more elegant. But the tree still unconditionally won.

I started the cladding from the second floor. Used larch lining 110 mm, in half grade extra and grade A. The better the material, the easier, easier and faster it is to work with.

In addition, a better lining does not have waste due to the absence of cracks in knots, resin pockets and deformation, which are so rich in grades AB and B.

Interior decoration of the attic walls of a frame house.

It was decided to make the living room a little more pretentious, so that there would be no associations with a beautiful shed:

The bottom of the walls, up to a level of approximately 80 - 100 cm, is still sheathed with larch clapboard. Above, from this level and to the very top, I fastened the lining of the abash. The whole artistic refinement lies in the orientation (vertical) and the alternation of wide and narrow boards. Of course, I had to tinker a bit, but overall it looks very good.

In other rooms, the walls are also sheathed with alternating boards, but in the usual horizontal orientation.

To prevent the insulation from getting wet, it is closed from the side of the room with a Tyvek vapor barrier. The joints were glued with metallic tape.

Slowly, as the finish is completed, you can begin to settle down. Sofa in the attic.

Wardrobe in a niche on the second floor. The closet is very spacious. Somewhere around three cubes. There is where to turn around, or rather meet.

The work is not carried out sequentially one after another, but as the weather permits, the availability of materials, the presence of other urgent matters. The exterior decoration of the frame country house 6 x 8 was carried out exactly according to this principle.

On top of the installed Isoplata, he pulled windproofing produced by TechnoNIKOL onto the walls. Classic technology:

• rolls overlapped by 15 - 20 cm;
• stapler fastening.

Everything else was sewn up already in the spring, when it was warm and pleasant to work outside.

The material for the work is still the same - larch lining, grade A. Advantages - resistant to water, easy to work with (good quality material). Disadvantages - expensive, fragile (it is necessary to drill holes for fasteners).

Roof overhangs and wind boards on the gables were sewn up with plastic. Durable (does not rot), aesthetically pleasing and easy to install. No matter how you look at it, there are positives everywhere.

Landscaping

The house is almost ready. You can already live. Although there are still many shortcomings. It's time to improve the site and ensure a comfortable life.

So let's start with the fence. Poles for the gate. Casting of the base, profile pipe, lining with facing bricks. Everything seems to be clear, there is nothing archaic and cunning.

By the same principle, we make the entire fence of 40 meters. We attach painted corrugated board to the posts. As they say cheap and cheerful.

The most important part of the fence is the automatic sliding gate. Very convenient, although not so cheap anymore.

Well, as for the amenities - a sewer was made. A well-septic tank was dug and sewerage was laid. Now, in a two-story frame house 6 x 8, a bath, a toilet, a shower room and other signs of civilization take place and can function in full.

My mistakes and conclusions after the construction of a frame house 6x8

The experience gained shows that 6 x 8 on a turnkey basis is quite realistic on its own. Hired workers were involved in the foundation, stove, and ventilation. Digging a well does not count, since this is more of an improvement and has an indirect relationship to construction.

Looking back, I want to draw several important conclusions:

Summing up, we can say that it is quite possible to make a dream a reality. And the independent embodiment of a dream reduces the price of a 6 x 8 frame house by one and a half to two times, which means it makes the dream even more attractive and achievable.

For more than five years, being engaged in the creation and implementation of low-cost housing projects for the population of the central and northwestern regions of the Russian Federation, Russian Construction has studied their needs and material possibilities. The company successfully sells dozens of turnkey 8x8 frame houses.

The site presents more than ten options for buildings for suburban construction. These are one- and two-story buildings with a balcony, an attic, a porch. Opposite each option is the complete set of the house, prices, floor plans.

Advantages of cottages

One-story frame houses 8x8 in size have a total area of ​​​​64 sq.m., two-story buildings - up to 128 sq.m. The first options will suit a family of 1-2 people - an elderly couple or newlyweds. The latter are suitable for a family of 3 to 6 people, depending on the model of construction. The first floor is occupied by utility rooms and a living room, on the second floor there are bedrooms. By purchasing a frame house 8 by 8, the owners receive additional benefits:

• operational deadlines for the delivery of the object;
• low cost of the building due to own production of material and low-cost foundation;
• saving money on finishing outside and inside, since the beam is laid professionally and has a presentable appearance;
• good thermal insulation and reduced heating costs.

Construction work included in the price
All partitions, windows, doors are placed in accordance with your individual project

However, in fact, making a choice is not so difficult if you entrust the construction to those who really know how to do it. Our company has many years of experience in this field and in its catalog you can see not only frame houses, but also reviews of those who have already used the services.

What does the price for building a frame house 8x8 include?

For each project, a clear estimate is developed, and for any house it is given in several versions. A building in which finishing work has been brought to a rough stage will cost less. With a white finish or a finished house, it will cost several hundred thousand rubles more.

But in this case, the owners get the opportunity for post-warranty service, and in this the increased price for building an 8x8 frame house is beneficial. It is much more convenient to pay a little more right away, but get the opportunity to move into a finished house and not worry about its condition for the next five years. If problems or complaints arise during operation, they are eliminated by the company. This is a significant advantage of installing a turnkey house, regardless of what it is made of. It is beneficial not only to the customer: any contractor, realizing his long-term responsibility, will strive to carry out the construction as carefully as possible.

On average, for subgroups, the cost estimate, which makes up the price and cost of an 8x8 frame house, can be divided into the following subsections:

• general construction works, including both geodesy of the site and coordination of the necessary documents in the BTI;
• foundation works;
• erection of a power frame;
• home insulation;
• roofing;
• installation of window systems and door blocks;
• internal and external finishing;
• engineering communications and heating.

In general, for the customer, these subgroups are not of fundamental importance, since when agreeing on the estimate of work, he sees in detail what exactly he pays for. In this case, the amount reflected in the catalog is final. It will not increase due to rising prices for building materials. Our customers can be confident in the future, regardless of whether they pay for the construction in cash or make a purchase on credit. Moreover, even the final amount, which is reflected on the website, can be reduced in inverse proportion to the amount of discounts. The latter are regularly held by the company in the form of various promotions. This opens up opportunities for additional savings, thanks to which the same windows or, for example, the design of a door group can be received as a gift.

Our projects of frame houses 8x8 are diverse in style

Each house is individual in its own way, which allows you to choose among standard projects an option for every taste. The complete set of any finished house can be changed by making adjustments in accordance with existing wishes. Although the assortment presented on the site is so diverse that there is no doubt about the individuality of any project. Even the general style can differ significantly, as projects are created in accordance with the specifics of low-rise construction in different countries. And that's not to mention the final appearance or interior layout.

If, for some reason, standard designs of 8x8 frame houses do not suit you, it is also possible to develop an individual design. Fill out the feedback form or make a call and the managers of the Intel Group will give answers to all your questions regarding both existing projects or the organization of the work process, and the specifics of the technologies used.
