Do -it -yourself foam blocks

From a long time in Rus’, a bathhouse was appreciated, which was built from the most diverse wooden material. Over time, technologies developed and various materials began to appear, from which modern houses and baths began to build.

Of course, no one forbids to build a bathhouse made of wood, but a bathhouse of foam blocks becomes more popular, which can be built not only quickly, but also of high quality.

Project

Before drawing up a project of a bathhouse from foam blocks, you need to think about the quality of the material: foam block is also quite different. A good foam block is much more refractory than a tree, while it is cheaper, lighter and has the best heat -shielding properties. For the construction of a bath, medium -sized foam blocks are suitable: it is more convenient to build. It is only worth considering that foam blocks are not very resistant to moisture, so the foam block you bought should contain moisture resistant additives. If you pay attention, then the bath from foam blocks has deserved quite positive reviews: replacing this cheap, and most importantly quality material, so far no one could find.

If you pay attention, then the appearance of foam blocks that can be easily cut, cut and even chopped can be easily changed, so baths from foam blocks can have the most diverse plan, it is only worth showing skills and skills, then everything will be realized in a record time.

Like any room, the construction of the bath begins with the foundation, which is the basis of construction, which means that it should be built as clearly and correctly as possible. Dig a pit 60 cm deep, and 30 cm long. Next, it is necessary to drive the pins around the perimeter of the dug pound and pull the rope, while do not forget about additional ropes – intermediate ones, which should be placed every 1.9 meters. This is necessary for the fact that the foundation was poured smoothly.

After these preparations, it is necessary to make a frame of reinforcement, the thickness of the metal of which is 12 cm. collect the entire formwork from boards, the width of which is 25 mm. Following it is necessary to pour concrete: the resulting foundation, the height of which is 70-75 cm, is quite suitable for the construction of medium-sized baths.

Finishing

It is quite simple to build walls from foam blocks: it is necessary to calculate the highest angle using the building level, and, having previously fixed the waterproofing material on the foundation, proceed to the construction. Penxobloki should be stacked on a rope, but it should be borne in mind that there should not be any cracks between the foam blocks, otherwise the heat in the bath will not. Despite the fact that foam blocks, as material, are very convenient to use, but they must also be able to lay them: the heaviest first row when the blocks are attached using a simple cement-sand mortar. It should be borne in mind that it is after the first row that it is necessary to compensate for the height changes among the laid out, otherwise the construction will become a less pleasant activity than was supposed to.

For the construction of the second row, a special glue is needed, which will reduce the likelihood of cracks in the bath. Professionals advise laying out blocks along a row, laying between them a fine -mesh net, and fixing all this with glue: this is how the design will be much more reliable and more stable. To design door and window opening, you can use concrete, which is poured into the formwork or special substances.

The insulation of the bath

But how to insulate a bathhouse from foam blocks, because it can also have cracks. To increase the moisture resistance of the material and insulate the walls will help special insulating substances and materials that are sold in any construction store. But the finish of the bath from foam blocks is nothing complicated: you can use both panels and lining, and both of them can be found both in specialized stores and in construction.

Do not be afraid and build your health quickly, and most importantly, reliable.
