Wood has always been popular in construction. But today, during the reign of plastic and polyethylene, it has gained special recognition. It is environmentally friendly, conserves heat, is durable, and is also very attractive with its natural pattern. All these qualities are decisive when choosing a material for construction. own home with your own hands.
Layouts of all floors of a house made of 6×6 timber
Everyone home handyman I'm interested in the layout of timber houses. You can develop it yourself or download a ready-made one from the Internet. Moreover, it is completely free. If you don’t have the skills to correctly draw up a drawing of the future building, then you can make your own sketches indicating the dimensions and specific placement of the rooms of the future home. The World Wide Web is full of information about, as well as about. You can learn a lot from them to create your own projects.
However, before you build with your own hands, you should acquire necessary document- building permit. And for this you can contact a specialized construction company. It has standard house designs various sizes, ready-made drawings of all elements.
Layout of a two-story cottage made of 8×8 timber
Introduce them to you or offer to carry out work on individual order. However, this will cost more.
A home master who decides needs at least basic knowledge about construction timber. It is produced in two types:
The following types of treated wood are used for the construction of buildings:
Profiled timber, unlike ordinary logs, has a certain shape as a result of its high-tech processing.
Layout wooden house with attic size 6x8
Its profile drawing is a rectangular figure with connecting grooves. It is more suitable than others for constructing a building with your own hands. Its advantage: the walls do not require additional insulation or sealing of grooves.
The installation process is significantly accelerated thanks to the tongue-and-groove system, which operates on the principle of assembling a children's game Lego. The construction of a one-story building will take approximately 2-3 months, even if you build it with an attic.
And if outer side profile has the shape of a semi-oval, then a medium-sized 8x8 dwelling will look like fairytale mansion from round logs. Glued laminated timber is also widely used in construction, although it is more expensive than regular timber. It began to be mass produced not so long ago. It is stronger than a solid log. In contrast, it gives a small shrinkage of the building - less than 1%. Thermal insulation of walls is not required. Many companies offer projects modern houses from this new material.

It is relatively light, so its construction for a one-story building does not require a complex foundation. However, due to glue, the environmental friendliness of wood is reduced.
All mentioned can accommodate the premises necessary for a comfortable stay for the average family. If 6x6 area or 6x8 space is not enough, then on these square meters Maybe . You can also increase the usable living space with an insulated attic.
Typically, country houses of such limited size are erected. And they have their own specifics. For example, if you plan to stay here only during the warm season, then having a vestibule is not necessary.
An example of the layout of a house made of timber with a 9×9 attic
However, for each of them you need a minimum:
A 6x6 structure, as a rule, is more suitable for a summer house in which you can spend time during the warm season of the year. This is a budget one. It is being built on small summer cottage plots. His drawing is simple - dividing the entire area into three rooms: one - 16.5 m2, the second - 10.5, and the third - 5.7 m2.
At the dacha, the owners, their children and guests spend most of their time outdoors. If the couple came here alone, then the husband spends the whole day working on the garage. And the wife will be digging in the garden at this time. As a rule, no one sits in the rooms. In this regard, the largest living space is allocated to the bedroom. 
A medium-sized room is usually intended for the kitchen and dining room. Here you can welcome guests and treat them to delicious dishes. The remaining meters, of which at least 1.5 m2 are allocated, are used as a hallway. . Of course, if , then it interior layout will change somewhat. But for a two-story building it will be completely different.
Such space allows you to more fully take into account not only the number of family members, but also the wishes of each of them.
Changing the layout will also cause, which is indispensable in such buildings. When planning rooms, functionality should come first, not fashion and feng shui advice. And to protect against mold and fungi, you cannot do without appropriate treatment. This can also be done with your own hands, using modern preservation and disinfection solutions, which can always be bought at the local market.

We invite you to consider step by step guide- how to build a house from timber with one or another type of foundation and gable roof. It should be said right away that we will not go into the smallest details, since this material is intended for a reader who knows how to hold any instrument in his hands. All this is discussed below in the text, and you will also see a thematic video in this article.
Note. Don’t forget that the longest beam is only 6m long, and if you are planning, for example, a 7x8m house, then you will have to join the rows, which complicates installation.
Construction method:

Construction method:
The beam has not only different cross section and length, but also by the type of profile - it can be profiled (have grooves for longitudinal connection). The percentage of subsidence of an architectural structure will depend on humidity - it can be wet or dried.
This material also differs in the type of production - it is made from solid wood or glued together from lamellas (the price varies greatly). Profiles can be made from different breeds wood, where Siberian larch is considered the most valuable, followed by Ural spruce.
All these nuances must be taken into account when designing a house. The fact is that joining into a smooth fugue requires a sealing gasket (jute or linen tape) and dowels for fixation.
In addition, it is very important to provide channels for communications, such as water supply, sewerage, heating, electrification and communications. It is advisable that all “wet” rooms such as a bathroom, toilet, kitchen are nearby - this will make it easier to insert channels.
It all starts with the installation of the piping, which is installed on any type of foundation, having previously laid a cut-off waterproofing layer. When we build a house from timber with our own hands, it is precisely on lower crown accounts for the greatest humidity load.
That is why a wedding board made of larch 50 mm thick can be additionally placed under it. Either the board or the lower crown must be impregnated with an antiseptic, which increases its service life by an order of magnitude.
But let's figure out what benefits a wedding board brings? Sooner or later, the bottom will rot and no preparations used to treat wood will help with this. But replacing a board is much easier and cheaper than replacing the entire crown!
Environmental friendliness and love for nature are the main reasons that made us fall in love with timber houses. In order for your home to be comfortable, reliable, safe and functionally thought out to the smallest detail, first of all you need to carefully study the available drawings of houses made of timber.
Newsstands provide a lot of useful specialized literature on the topic of building your own home. But you can go further and use the services of a qualified specialist who will help recreate the individual “face” of the house.
Each individual project is the result of the painstaking work of an architect who knows the construction technology and its specifics. The only question is: price? If it is a little confusing, it would be quite advisable to use standard project at home and adapt it to suit yourself depending on your personal preferences.
Typical ready-made projects are good because not only the drawings are ready for them, but also the specifications down to the last latch and screw, and the construction technology has been developed. By using ready-made documentation, you don’t have to worry about having to disassemble finished wall, because The purchased ladder does not fit into the house.
Any drawing of a house made of timber involves performing a step-by-step series of actions that will help you make your dream home with your own hands.
The original instructions include:
Advice!
For the best visual perception future structure, it is recommended to use a special computer program, which will allow you to see the house in three dimensions.
Well-chosen drawings wooden houses made of timber will delight you with its neatness, beneficial microclimate and comfort. Having familiarized yourself with some samples, you can later make some adjustments to the layout you like and change it in accordance with your personal wishes.
The photo shows a project of a compact cottage with an attic made of.
The ground floor space accommodates:
The attic area consists of:
Everything is quite laconic and tasteful:
The original project made from laminated timber represents a cottage of a fairly spacious type. Most of the first floor is occupied by a living room connected to the hall, where the spiral staircase “found itself” ideally.
The house is designed in a special ergonomic style, harmoniously housing a bathhouse, shower and boiler room in its space. Its peculiarity lies in the arrangement of the terrace, which leads to the living room.
On the second floor there are:
The exterior walls are made of wood, the roof is made of metal tiles.
Which of the owners summer cottage does not feel the desire to acquire a bathhouse. What material should I use? According to what “scenario” should it be built? More on this later.
The immediate process of building a bathhouse is preceded by the creation of its design. A drawing of a bathhouse made of timber will allow you to determine required sizes buildings, the required amount of materials and equipment. In other words, a successful plan is the key to a competent construction.
Projects and drawings of timber baths take into account the following details:
Drawings of a bathhouse made of timber are distinguished by their aesthetic design and practicality in operation. In the construction of cottages and steam rooms, semicircular logs are used, which fit tightly to each other.
The classic layout of the steam room is quite in demand due to the already existing necessary calculations of material costs, which will save time and money.
Despite the fact that this bathhouse is distinguished by its modest size (4x3), it is quite convenient, roomy and comfortable. Thanks to careful thought, its interior includes a steam room, shower room and relaxation room.
But the most important thing undeniable advantage of this project is its ergonomics and cost-effectiveness. After all, the main thing for a steam room is heat. A room of this kind will be quite easy to heat up to desired temperature at minimal cost.
Advice!
It is possible to lay a strip foundation to a shallow depth without using a reinforcement frame.
A two-story bathhouse with an attic – increased comfort of your relaxation. From a practical point of view, the building can be located on small area, playing the role of not only a steam room, but also country house. In addition, the “teremok” can be used for both personal and commercial premises, since its interior accommodates the entire necessary spectrum for an ideal holiday.
The attic floor is a multifunctional space where a bedroom, living room, lounge or kitchen can be located. In turn, the construction of an attic allows you to significantly save on building materials and labor, eliminating the need to arrange an additional floor, which subsequently requires significant energy costs for its heating.
Which is easier: independent design or purchase ready-made solution? To answer the question posed, you need to carefully weigh all the pros and cons, and then accept for yourself correct solution. There are some factors to consider.
For example, design two-story bathhouse much more difficult than a one-story one. This is explained by the fact that in its construction it is necessary to correctly calculate the foundation and use piles.
Having at least a little experience in the construction industry, you can do everything yourself. But if there is none, then it will be cheaper to order a ready-made log house rather than turning to professionals for help. It is important to consider the moment of transporting the material and removing waste afterwards. And this is nothing more than an additional expense item.
You can see some options for house designs in the video in this article. However, what could be better than the pleasure and bliss that a steam room gives. With this thought, you don’t feel sorry for either money or time. Happy construction!

When Customers come to us with bright, modern ideas future home, we light up doubly! After all, work on a new stylish project It’s always interesting and a challenge, how to implement all the bold ideas from a constructive point of view, what materials to use? Vladimir bought a plot of land with picturesque views of the Oka bank! This view could not be ignored, so an indispensable attribute of the future house was a dizzying terrace (51.1 m2) and large balcony oriented to beauty! Vladimir wanted to relax in nature in wooden house, and it was necessary to build a house in a short time and ideal solution became for such tasks frame technology construction!

The house was made even more spectacular by the vertical finishing of imitation timber made of durable larch, painted in natural shades with emphasized wood texture. Laminated windows complement the modern look of the house! It turned out to be an excellent country house, with highlights and at the same time incredibly functional.
It all started with individual project, found by the Customer’s family on a European website. It was with him that she came to our office for the first time. We made preliminary calculations for the project, took a tour of the existing construction site, shook hands and work began to boil! The architect improved and adapted the project to the site and the Client’s family; the foreman “planted” the house on the site. Based on geological surveys, it was decided to place the house on bored piles. The frame grew in a few weeks, then the roofing, insulation, exterior finishing! Behind winter period a house grew on the site. The customer invited a third-party technical supervisor who monitored the process independently of our multi-stage control. The color for painting the imitation timber was selected by our manager and here in front of us is the bright and cozy country house of the Pushkov family’s dreams!
Convenience of living and comfort in your own home is determined long before the construction of the facility itself. For this purpose, projects and plans for the future structure are developed in detail. Optimal schemes houses made of timber contain a lot of useful spaces, without incurring unnecessary expenses in financially. How to achieve this - instructions below.
It is impossible to do without a documented base before construction. The following documents must be submitted to the permitting authorities: house design, layout and communications.
To make your own expenses optimal in this regard, it is worth ordering papers from a design office - they will evaluate the client’s wishes and correlate them with the capabilities of the area and region. Further, about the comfort of the future home in the internal and external layout:
It’s another matter if the family is large or plans to grow. Then making sure there are children's rooms, bedrooms and rest areas for everyone is a must. Then the solution to the problem will be a two-story house.
The cost savings are obvious - without increasing the foundation, you can add useful spaces. And in order to reduce the budget spent on materials, it is recommended mansard roof– the areas under it will be used as full-fledged rooms.
To make spaces habitable and thereby make the most of them, you should think about the immediate needs of the family. Balcony canopies should be used as open garages; the structures themselves should be equipped with everything necessary for work or leisure; the under-roof space should not be empty or serve as a storage area for rubbish. Having estimated what might be needed from this, you should make changes to the project.
In this case, the plans for wooden houses made of timber should be such that subsequently the wooden ensemble does not discord with each other. The location for housing should be determined taking into account future preferences, without infringing on the garden or other vegetation.
The above is the key to the optimal position of housing and comfortable living in it. The list is incomplete. By turning to design specialists, you can achieve targeted spending even in small things. Next about construction.
Independent device or ready-made house kit. Optimal choice components
There is no clear answer. Budget savings can be mythical if you do not have carpentry skills when working with your own hands. More details:
Advantages and disadvantages of a house kit:
Based on cost, the least expensive platform will be wooden supports. But they can only be used to install a garage or a bathhouse. They are not suitable for more impressive objects. So, monolith, strip, or piles?
You don’t have to worry about the strength of a building of any complexity and architecture. However, economically it is expensive. The installation of this type of foundation will take up to 50% of the budget allocated for construction.
The downside will be the desire to make an extension in the future - you need to take care of this in advance, since any foundation tends to shrink. The continuation of the tape is made immediately.
Thus, it is clear that the optimal solution would be to build a house from timber on a strip base with a ready-made house kit. Developer companies can offer a lot of such options.
The principle of laying finished elements is identical to simple ones. First, the walls are removed, not forgetting to alternate each crown with a sealant. Next, the rafter system is installed.
Then they leave the house alone for a year. During this time, all construction flaws will be visible. After the time has passed, the door and window openings and preparing the finishing.
What is optimal here? In the consumption of time. During the period while the object remains untouched, a number of works can be carried out:
