Build a greenhouse made ​​of polypropylene pipes

Build a greenhouse made ​​of polypropylene pipes

Every gardener can assemble a greenhouse made of polypropylene pipes with his own hands.

Greenhouse of polypropylene pipes can be both large and small sizes, can be arched and rectangular in shape.

Its robust frame sheathe sheets of plastic wrap or polycarbonate, which is able to protect the structure from winter peremerzaniya and subsequent cracking.

And in early spring will create the necessary climate for growing plants.

used in the construction of greenhouses PVC products are environmentally safe for plants and humans.

If you have all the necessary materials, the design framework is being built with his own hands for a few days, and can last for quite a long time.

If it is necessary, the greenhouse on the basis of polypropylene pipes can be easily disassembled and moved to another area.

Please note the photo ready greenhouse plants, frame which is built on the basis of PVC pipes.

Materials carcass building greenhouses of polypropylene pipes

during erection of greenhouses frame made of thick-walled polypropylene pipes collect their own hands through the use of specially designed for this purpose plastic frogs.

Fittings are advised to purchase high-strength, made of thermoset.

For the construction of the frame with his hands will have to stock up on the following materials:

  • pvc pipe, inner diameter - 16,6 mm, outer - 25 mm, wall thickness - 4.2 mm;
  • reinforcement rods (diameter 10-12 mm, length 75 cm);
  • wooden beams 50x50 mm;
  • Edged board 150h30 mm;
  • steel wire or PVC tees;
  • straps for fixing cladding;
  • polycarbonate sheets or reinforced film;
  • fasteners.

also complement the above list you need a tool like a drill, a hammer, a knife and a garden drill or sledgehammer.

construction of the base substrate beneath the carcass structure

After the erection of greenhouses with the place determined, it will be necessary to perform site layout.frame Frame edged boards should have a strict right angles, as shown in the photo.

greenhouse frame

Make markup can be a way of "two curves" or Egyptian Triangle technology.

lower frame rail mounted with screws or nails.To eliminate frame distortion at the corners of her set reinforcing rods.

Then move to the arrangement of the basic elements - supporting the foundation for future greenhouse polypropylene tubes, then mount the fixing reinforcement rods.

With a garden drill with his hands on both long sides of the frame in the ground doing the deepening of not less than 0.5 m, with a distance from each other 50 cm.

After installing the valve, it should protrude from the recesses above the ground on 25 cm.

also install reinforcing rods can be, scoring them in the ground, using a sledgehammer, but it will be necessary to monitor the verticality of the absolute applied elements.

assembly technology arched frame of polypropylene pipes

When the base under future greenhouse will be completely ready, you must go to the construction of the installation of ribs rigidity.

To this end, the edge of polypropylene pipes pushed onto the reinforcing rods on both sides.The output is a frame of the arches, which is strengthened by transverse mount PVC pipes.

transverse elements are connected with arches of steel wire or a special plastic fittings.In the second embodiment of the compound, are fitted with arched ribs tees advance.

If a greenhouse is planned some time to dismantle, then tees fixed to the pipes with screws, otherwise the solder.

Based on the size of the object is calculated by the required number of transverse ribs.

Typically, this 2-3 polypropylene tubes between the arches.

main load is carried by a transverse ridge pipe, which is a mandatory piece design, without slack film coating after the rain.

Cusp arched frame ends greenhouse

End polypropylene construction elements require special attention.The ends of timber harvested, which must be pre-treated with an antiseptic agent water resistant.

Fixing film material on the timber is carried out with the help of screws and rods.

Butts, like the rest of the frame structure, also can be made with his own hands made of polypropylene pipes.For this

vymeryat and cut off the necessary length of the pipe, after which they are placed vertically next door aperture.

the bottom ends of the PVC is attached to the rebar driven into the ground, at the top of the arch is fixed with plastic tees.

To mount ready PVC ends flap door, this one vertical pipe soldered small pieces of polypropylene pipes, which are pushed onto the sash.

Recommended for viewing video material about the construction of the greenhouse arch structure on the basis of polypropylene pipes.

Build a greenhouse with straight walls

If arched greenhouse for some reason undesirable, it is possible to construct a framework of polypropylene pipes, the shape of which is like a house.

To do this, run the following plan of action:

  1. site layout is done.The hands mounted waistrail from edging boards and reinforcing rods in the same way as the construction of arch greenhouses;
  2. then to the valve is pushed the same vertical segments of polypropylene pipes;
  3. Once constructed stropilovka future roof.PVC elements collected by the ridge with plastic tees.The use of horizontal cross pieces on top of the roof structure will provide the necessary rigidity;
  4. also equipped with transverse stiffeners greenhouse uprights, the top of which was pre-fitted with PVC tees.

add the topic in more detail and consider the whole procedure will enable the following video material.

Sheathing polyethylene greenhouses

often frame greenhouses of polypropylene pipes reinforced adhesive qualities with plastic wrap, to consider in detail how this is done, it is possible in the proposed video material.

hosts, who tried to use a conventional greenhouses polyethylene could be convinced of its inappropriate use.

Simple film deteriorating rapidly when exposed to sunlight and temperature changes.

For the right skin segments is carried out cutting material.Do it better in a greenhouse that would eliminate errors and save consumption of the product.

length film strips is greater than the length of ribs arches than a skeleton, as at the end of the film casing filled in under the lower harness greenhouses.

Video:

Secure reinforced polyethylene is also possible through the slats, which are attached to a polypropylene tube arches made by their own hands the special plastic clips.

for their production using short lengths of pipes with a larger diameter.The tube is cut along one side, resulting in a resilient clip is obtained.

After a reliable fixation with plastic sheathing can be regarded as the construction of greenhouses on the basis of polypropylene pipes complete.

Sheathing greenhouse pvc pipes polycarbonate

frame greenhouses made of polypropylene can be obtyanut not only durable polyethylene and polycarbonate sheets of sheathing.

winter the material will serve as a good protection for the entire structure, as related to the heat insulating type of building products.

Its high cost, compared with a reinforced film, offset by long-life, high performance and ease of installation.

polycarbonate Special feature is the ability to expand and contract during temperature drops.

Therefore fixing polycarbonate base substrate should not be administered with the use of rigid fasteners.Otherwise sheathing deformed.

polycarbonate sheets are mounted on a framework polypropylene construction with self-tapping screws for roofing and thermowasher.

frame scheme

fixing holes are drilled with a diameter slightly larger than that of the rod.

Thus between polycarbonate sheet and the head of the screw is necessary to leave a gap of one millimeter for the rubber seal.

Despite the best characteristics of polycarbonate, it is still recommended to be mounted on a carcass basis from metal profile.

Care PVC construction

As mentioned above, pvc frame design can be performed in a stationary and a folding version.

It is best if the structure will be assembled on the screws, it can be disassembled and sent to winter in hozblok.

If greenhouse park on the street, in the winter it will have all of the time to care - to sweep away snow drifts.

Otherwise polyethylene sheathing and sag under the influence of a constant load breaks.

With regard to the stability of polycarbonate to such stresses, they are the material carries much better film.But still have to take care of him.

If the surface of the material is covered with a crust of ice, the scouring is not recommended, as it can be easily scratched polycarbonate, which has no resistance to this kind of mechanical influences.

supplement the above material detailed information will allow the thematic video material in the article.
