Pent roof for a bath

Pent roof for small bath - the most economical and practical solution.It does not require expensive unit complex truss system and can be made from virtually any roofing material with his own hands.Especially convenient pent roof for baths, an attached to other buildings.In this case, the pent roof can serve as an extension of the main building roof.

Pent roof for a bath with his hands

slope pent roof operate depending on the snow and wind loads in the construction area.In regions with a significant amount of snow roof perform steeper, with the angle of 15 degrees in order to improve the conditions for gathering and snow clearing.In areas with strong winds, on the contrary, make the roof flatter.

pent roof design baths

design a roof is extremely simple.The slope is created due to the difference in height of two opposite walls.Thus the roof can be performed as a loft, and without it.In the first case the roof also serves as the ceiling and the bath requires a binder and insulation inside.If the bath with pent roof make the attic, the ceiling device is further stacked horizontal beams.

itself rests on the roof rafters, which are placed directly on the walls of the bath in a specially carved grooves.Rafters are placed with a pitch of 0.6-1.2 meters, placed on top of the rafters sheathing, and on it - waterproofing and roofing.

roof without the attic is usually performed in small summer baths with a long slope no more than 3 meters.With a length of more than 4 meters of slope must always be installed under the rafters of additional supports, the lower end resting on the floor beams.

truss system for pent roof

Roofings for pent roof of the bath can be:

• Blanket: stekloizol, roofing material, soft roof;
• profiled sheet metal: corrugated board or metal;
• Ondulin.

Slate and sheet metal to cover the pent roof is rarely selected because they have a considerable weight and heavier roof structure.

When the roof insulation is generally used fibrous non-combustible materials: stone, or rock wool in the form of slabs or rolls.And if the roof is done without the attic, insulated the roof itself, when the attic better to insulate the ceiling bath.

Materials and

tool prior to construction of the roof is necessary to perform a drawing in scale and size of the structure to determine the difference between the heights of the opposite walls of baths, the slope angle, slope length, and depending on the size of the found calculate material.

To fulfill pent roof, you will need:

• Edged board 40-60 mm thick to carry out the rafters and ceiling beams;
• Board water-resistant plywood or for performing sparse or solid crates;
• waterproofing roofs;
• Roofing;
• Cutting board for filing the ceiling;
• Gidroparoizolyatsionnaya film with metallic coating;
• fibrous insulation: mineral, glass or basalt wool;
• Tools: jigsaw, screwdriver, knife, tape measure, hammer, staple gun.

also needs an antiseptic coating of wooden structures, as the room - a room with high humidity, and service life of untreated wood is much lower.

technology implementation pent roof bath

1. When erecting walls of the bath one of the walls perform higher in the drawing.The rectangular bath is usually one of the long walls, as the length of the ramp if possible try to do less, this allows a lower cost materials perform a more solid roof.
2. If the roof is made with a loft, at the level of the lower walls make the slots for the ceiling beams at the same distance as the rafters.In the upper tool bar high walls also serve the slots under the rafters.All slots carefully treated with preservative for wood.

3. According to the dimensions shown in the drawing, cut out floor joists and rafters in the required amount of thick edged boards.Their ends, which will draw on the beams, impregnated polymer waterproofing mastic and wrapped roofing material, put into prepared grooves and fastened by means of pins or metal clips to stenam.Stropila placed on the upper bar - mauerlat and pull together with him by means of studs and metal plates.At the length of the slope more than 4 meters between the joists and rafters or additional set of support struts.

4. sutured bath gables with the base material from which it is built, or dosok.Dlya bath with a loft in one of the gable vent is required to carry out the window as the roof will gather steamwithout aeration lead to condensation.
   

   Gables baths can be sewn with the help of boards

5. Across the rafters on top of stack gidroparoizolyatsionnuyu film with a little slack, and attach to rafters using stroitelnogosteplera.On top of the film is attached to the rafters bar, and it laid a solid crate made of plywood or boards of sparse steps 0.3-0.6 meters.Solid crate operate under the soft roof, sparse - a metal tile roofing ondulin.Ukladku or produced in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.Metal tile or corrugated board is attached to the crate with special self-tapping screws with a sealing washer into the lower wave, creating an overlap of material on the same wavelength.Ondulin, on the other hand, is attached to the top of a wave of nails with a special wide hat.Soft roof is attached to a special backing layer using a heat gun.Roofing felt is glued using bituminous mastics.

6. Krepjat eaves and wind braces, as well as the horse, thus necessarily satisfied with ventilation gap.If wood burning sauna, and passes through the roof of the chimney, special attention should be paid to the unit it passes through the roof and floor.According to the fire safety norms distance from the chimney must be at least 20 cm. The space between the wooden structures and the tube is sutured inside a metal box and filled with non-flammable material, for example, basalt wool.From the roof pipe output through a special pipe penetrations and perform waterproofing pipe.

7. roof insulation baths - a must, otherwise it increases significantly during its heating to the desired temperature.In built-up insulated itself pent roof slope.Do this by using a heater inside the binder.fiber insulation boards are placed between the rafters so as to leave no gaps.Recommended thickness of the insulation for the central part of Russia - by 10 cm, and in order to avoid thermal bridges insulation is best laid in two layers so that the second layer overlaps the first joints.Insulation is attached between the rafters using battens, and then sew the metallized vapor barrier film, putting it shiny side towards the steam.The film is attached to the rafters stapler, and then on top of it fixed the bars across the rafters, and they fixed casing steam.

8. In the case of the device insulated attic ceiling itself.To perform thermal insulation on the ceiling joists plank subfloor, sheathe its bottom waterproof tape and placed between the heater plate girders similar to the warming rays.From the steam vapor barrier and sutured perform inner lining baths.

Warming ceiling

Pent roof bath - cost-effective and easy-to-use design, but if there is a need for the implementation of the attic floor, this design is inconvenient, and it is better to do the roof gable or mansard.
