What cellar needs, do not need to prove to anyone.Not to mention the city apartment, even in a private home is not possible to provide long-term storage of products that we harvests, as they say, "for the winter."That it can allow us to keep them fresh in the relative cold.No one in the refrigerator, we can not put as much as will fit even in a small cellar.Therefore, a cellar, as well as any building should be built efficiently, in compliance with all the rules, so he served us for many years.

First, you should decide where and how you decide to build a cellar.In general terms, any cellar - a small pit dug in the ground and properly equipped.Therefore, we can build it anywhere: in a private house, in the garage, in the garden or on the streets.The main thing - to choose the place properly.If you decided to build a cellar in the open country, a place should be chosen higher, as in the lowlands will be constantly wet for him.

In any case where there will be arranged a cellar, it is necessary to accurately determine the depth at which the groundwater occur, or cellar can elementary flood.Namely, on this basis, and is defined by its depth.As a rule, it does not exceed 2 meters.It should be noted, and what will be the floor, as this is largely dependent on the composition of the soil.

Recommended time for the construction of cellars - summer.During this period, the ground water are located in the lower "point".Well, the weather.This is important if you decide to arrange a cellar in an open area.Particular attention is paid in this building waterproofing issues.Through floor and wall structures water under any circumstances should not penetrate.In addition to being unpleasant to be always wet cellar, safety products it is a big question.




The procedure works on the construction of the cellar

first digging a pit (pit).Typically, the width of the selected small, no more than 3 meters high.Generally cellar size is determined arbitrarily, depending on the availability of free space under it.The depth has been said that as a rule it does not exceed two meters.The walls of the pit are made with a slight slope, otherwise the land will continue to crumble.

It is bottom of the pit, and will determine the future size of the cellar.It should be borne in mind that the real dimensions of the well cellar will be smaller sizes.Experts recommend to calculate that the waterproofing equipment "leaves" layer about 40 - 60 cm on each side.Therefore, on average, the cellar will be shorter and have dug pit about 1 m along each axis - consider this.

floor and walls of the cellar

build - cellar - 2 When ready to pit, then the next stage - the preparation of the floor.The bottom is filled with gravel (at least 3 - 4 cm) and well compacted.To do this, fit a small scrap timber.Your task - to seal the bottom.It would be then half fill with liquid bitumen.After this is done concrete screed.The thickness of the screed after drying the solution should not be less than 10 cm. It should not just "keep" a certain weight, but will also experience pressure from below the water table.And only then laid waterproofing material.

Such materials are many, and one of the most common of them - roofing material.That's it I used for waterproofing, when building a cellar at his dacha.However, experts believe that it is already "past century", and serves as a roofing material is not more than 5 - 6 years.

Now for walls.The material for these blocks of concrete may be, natural stone, brick, but only burned.The use of silica brick, cinder undesirable.Actually it should be guided, as the chosen material reacts to moisture.Walls laid brickwork around the ground level - it all depends on the thickness of the selected overlap.

From the outside walls are also laid waterproofing material.This is done in stages, after the installation of several rows of stone, otherwise it will be difficult to handle the entire outer side of the wall (do not forget that the distance from the edge of the pit will be small).

Particular attention should be paid to the corners and joints of floors and walls - this is where most of the water is leaking.The joints of walls with each other need to seal both the inner and the outer side.The result is a well-insulated stone "bag".Entrance to the cellar to make easier through the hole with a ladder.What do overlap, everyone decides for himself.The requirement to it one - it should support the weight of three - four people.In general, it depends on the installation site cellar.If he's in the open air in the winter and ceiling should withstand the weight of snow.

wall between the cellar and the wall of the pit is filled with clay.And you must fill it "chunks", each of them in order compacted.The overlap is necessary to insulate and cover the concrete screed.

As a rule, on the one hand the cellar shelves are located, and on the other - the so-called bins for storage of products in bulk (. D potatoes, carrots and so on.).Provision should be made, and such things as lighting and ventilation.Normally, put the two vent stack with a diameter of at least 10 cm. Positioning should be in opposite corners, since one tube will draw the air and through the other, he will go.With such a constant ventilation products stored longer.
