The construction of the garage of the foam blocks with their hands

Hello dear readers Stroy-shkola.ru.In this lesson, we will examine how to build a garage of foam blocks with their hands without the aid of hired workers.In previous lessons, we have already discussed such topics as:

1. Metal garage with his hands;
2. Garage of metal sheets with his own hands;
3. garage of corrugated board with your hands;

Now let's look at the advantages of the construction of buildings of the foam blocks.Foam blocks - a modern material that has high standards of quality - it is durable, can not be exposed to excessive sunlight, and does not freeze in winter.The main advantage - the ability to retain heat.Thus, if you park the car in the metal garage - there is a risk that on the morning of your car simply will not start, because the temperature in the garage will be slightly higher than ulitse.V garage constructed from foam blocks such problems should not be !.

Construction of the foundation for the garage to garage

to choose a foundation according to your type of soil, about this you can read in the category - "building the foundation."Let's look at a complicated option - the construction of a raft foundation.To begin with it will be necessary to drill a hole for the foundation, according to preliminary calculations, we need them to be - about 16 pieces !.Next comes pouring concrete wells - preferably M200 series, because it has the necessary properties of strength.

next step will be the construction of formwork and strengthen its cross-boards, which can be seen in the picture above - this is done to ensure that when casting our foundation is not deformed, and together with it form the foundation is not deformed.By the way note that it is desirable to withdraw a little more long metal bars of our pillars for the foundation (wells) - we just did not consider this point, but we recommend you keep it.This will allow more reliably seal the foundation with pillars.

now begin to fill the formwork with concrete, for this mix sand, cement and gravel in the concrete mixer.Note that the foundation is best to fill in for 1 time, but if you pour 1 times failed, then it is necessary to moisten the next day a piece of water and continue pouring the foundation to avoid losing structural integrity.

Walling garage

next stage - the construction of the walls of the garage, as we agreed long ago we plan to use for the construction of concrete blocks, but note that the concrete blocks - it's quite an expensive material, but certainly of high quality.In addition to the foam blocks can be used cinder blocks or blocks of cheap opilkobetona, which by the way can be made with your own hands - about the production of wood-concrete blocks with their hands, we have already mentioned in previous articles.

Now comes the time of the installation of doors, of course you can put ordinary iron doors.But the garage more applicable lifting rotary or sliding gates.

Inspection pit in the garage with his hands

Construction of a viewing hole - it's a long, but nevertheless a very interesting process.It begins with waterproofing the outside by means of roofing material or special tapes (Technonikol etc.).This is done, in order that, after freezing (in winter day) observation wells "did not lead" and it is not deformed with the arrival of groundwater.After waterproofing ready comes the moment of erection of formwork for viewing hole - an example of the construction of the formwork, you can see on the slide below.

As you can see on the slides, waterproofing fit not only horizontally (on the floor), but also vertically.Now comes the process of casting.Remove the formwork can be within a week, please note that all the properties of strength of the foundation dial in 2-3 weeks.

Erection and floor screed in the garage

Pro floor screed can not tell a lot, because it is a fairly simple process, but in general the plan so vyglidit:

1. first need to dig up the soil to 10 cm and to the bottom of the ground to puta special film, which serve as the likeness of a waterproofing from the ground.
2. The next step is filling with sand floor - will have to fill the height of 10-15 cm
3. The next step is to put sand on the film again for waterproofing -. It is on the safe side if (sand gets wet).
4. After laying a film completed - start to stack metal lath and associate it squares 10 x 15 cm Assign better fitting -. Hook for tying rebar.By the way note that the film is better to put in the overlap on the wall, that is, with zapasop 10-20 cm. Unnecessarily while pouring the floor it will make a little extra insulation.
5. Now proceed to the foundation is poured, after the foundation must be poured shake his vibrator, by the way you need to fill in at least the height of 8cm !.After pouring the concrete must be sprayed with water to better grasped.You also need to make a slight slope, that was where to drain excess water.

That's all with the construction of the garage of the foam blocks over.Now we have to decorate the garage, at its discretion - such as siding or just whitewash.
