House made of glued laminated timber with a mansard roof. Attic in a house made of glued laminated timber - it's convenient

Projects of houses from glued laminated timber with an attic are the most popular offers from the GOOD WOOD catalog. The main advantages of such housing:

  • lower price per square meter;
  • the most efficient use of space;
  • rooms with a non-standard sloping ceiling surface;
  • roof windows can be installed;
  • unusual room design.
High-quality insulation of the attic of the cottage and the house made of glued laminated timber allows you to use the rooms as living rooms - the rooms above differ from the usual ones only in the slope of the ceiling, so the owners get a full-fledged second floor with an unusual design of the rooms. In the article we will tell you why an attic in a house made of glued laminated timber is convenient, we will show examples correct use floors with sloped ceilings.

Attic rooms are the brightest

Windows in two-storey houses with an attic of glued beams of the "" series occupy the entire wall, but if you add a window in the roof, then daylight will be at any time of the day. The design is ideal for a nursery, library, bathroom, bedroom.

The attic is the perfect place for an office


The second floor is always quieter than the first. There are no walk-through rooms, kitchens, front door- you can work quietly or read in silence. An additional advantage is that the cabinet does not require a large width. Three meters is enough to install a sofa, wardrobe, desktop. In the attic, the office can be placed both along and across the slope of the roof - the main thing is to arrange the furniture correctly.

Cozy bedrooms with a balcony


The ceiling in the bedroom should not be high, so the attics get the most cozy bedrooms. The window near the bed, the sloping ceiling, the smell of wood are ideal conditions for sleeping.

Spacious bathrooms


A bathroom is an obligatory part of the house with bedrooms on the second floor. In the attic, additional windows often appear in the bathrooms, and the space is visually enlarged due to the area under the sloping part of the roof.

Proper layout of utility rooms


Cabinets are located on the sides - such a layout “eats up” a minimum of space and allows you to discreetly fold a huge amount of things. At points with a ceiling height of more than two meters, you can place an ironing board, a wardrobe on a coat hanger. So in a narrow space you get a comfortable and roomy dressing room.

Best place for kids


Children like the rooms on the second floor - it has its own atmosphere, an unusual shape of the ceiling, additional adventures in the form of a staircase, a balcony. And if there is a pantry, a library, a gym and a second light upstairs, then the attic turns into a whole world for children.

Why houses made of glued laminated timber with an attic are considered the most convenient

In most projects, the attic floor is used as a zone of private rooms, but here you can also equip a gym, an office, a playroom for children, a comfortable bathroom, a dressing room, and a pantry. If you correctly approach the layout, then the first floor is freed - 1-2 bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a boiler room remain below.

Do you want to know if an attic project is right for you? Seeing the second floor with a sloping ceiling with your own eyes is better than looking at pictures. There are special ones in GOOD WOOD in which you can see ready-made options design.

Wood has been used as a material for building a house for several hundred years and has proven itself well. Despite the development of technology, wooden houses are not inferior in their parameters to other types, for example, buildings made of foam concrete or SIP panels, and in some cases they are significantly superior.

The house with an attic has a presentable and stylish appearance. Such a house will always attract attention, and the main material - timber will add its own zest. But such a building performs not only aesthetic functions, but also practical ones. Thanks to the arrangement of the attic, you can significantly increase the usable area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe house. The only minus of the attic is that due to its proximity to environment it will need to be further insulated.

The tree is natural material and, therefore, environmentally friendly and safe. Wood perfectly retains heat indoors and at the same time does not let cold air through. Thanks to this, a microclimate comfortable for life is maintained in the house, there is good air circulation. Also, this factor provides warmth in the house during the cold winter and a slight coolness in the summer.

When it comes to building wooden house From the side of material costs, there are also some advantages here.

Advantages and disadvantages

Building from timber will come out cheaper than, for example, from brick, since wood has less weight. And this suggests that the cost of manufacturing the foundation will be reduced. In this case, a very strong mortar of concrete or cement is not required, and there is no need to in large numbers.

A house made of timber with an attic at a cost will come out much cheaper than a full-fledged two-story building. After all, in fact, the attic is attic space, but furnished as a living room. Thus, the amount of building materials is reduced, and hence the costs.

Such houses initially have an attractive appearance, so no additional decoration facade, which also significantly reduces costs. The building material itself is also low cost.

With a large number of advantages, there are also disadvantages of timber houses. First of all, it is worth remembering that the tree is exposed to moisture, which means that it is necessary to make reliable waterproofing and treat the wood with antiseptics. When buying material, it is important to find out whether the timber has dried out enough and how it was dried. It also needs to be treated for insects. There are some more advantages:

  • there are no great difficulties in the care during operation;
  • a wooden house can not only be assembled, but also disassembled if necessary;
  • savings on heating;
  • long service life.

Wooden houses have poor protection against fires, so it is recommended to think carefully about the fire protection system and carry out high-quality insulation of electrical wiring. Also, do not neglect the processing of wood with flame retardants.

If the facade cladding is not required, then the interior design of the walls is still necessary. And this can be difficult, as some facing materials will not hold securely, for example, tiles. This factor is due to the fact that wood "breathes", which means that its density can change.

It is also worth noting the fact that a house made of timber is subject to complete shrinkage for about three years (this parameter depends on the type of wood).

Construction features

Before starting construction, it is necessary to determine the size of the house, where and how various communications will take place, electrical wiring, ventilation system and fire safety, located windows and doors. Provide for the presence of a terrace or veranda, garage, basement and other auxiliary facilities. It is necessary to draw up general drawing and after that proceed to the construction of a house with an attic. Types of timber:

  • whole;
  • profiled;
  • glued.

It is better to use a beam for building a house than a rounded log, because the latter simply creates an imitation of antique, and the beam gives the house modern style. Solid timber is not subjected to additional processing, due to which it can be found in any hardware store. This type is characterized by low cost and high construction speed. There is no need to attract a large number of specialists or equipment, installation work is carried out easily and quickly.

A solid beam is a log with a rectangular section, which is obtained by planing from four sides. But a solid, non-profiled timber does not comply with GOSTs, as a result of which differences in the placement of the crowns may form due to the unevenness of the saw cut and the size cross section. This type of timber needs special treatment from fungus, mold and insects.

Unlike a solid beam, the profiled version is processed and takes the form of a bowl with spikes. This form provides a snug fit of logs without gaps, and the design has a higher reliability. This ensures that moisture does not get inside the building and heat is retained. The surface of the profiled timber is even and smooth, no additional design of the facade is required.

Building a house from profiled timber requires breaks so that the material has time to dry. After the end of all installation work, you should start interior decoration no earlier than after 10 months.

The construction of glued laminated timber consists of 2-5 lamellas of a certain shape, glued together. Before gluing, the raw materials must be dried. Glued cedar timber is the highest quality and durable material, it has good thermal insulation and is slightly affected by the external environment. Also, this type of timber can be made from larch and pine.

Glued laminated timber has a rather high price, but it is justified by its excellent properties. Since glue is included in its design, such a beam is less environmentally friendly in comparison with solid or profiled materials.

The main differences between materials:

  • a structure made of non-profiled timber needs external finishing of the facade, since its appearance is far from ideal;
  • the only type of timber material that is not subject to cracking is glued timber;
  • profiled and glued laminated timber undergo minimal shrinkage, unlike solid timber.

The construction of a house from a bar with an attic is divided into the following stages:

  • foundation installation;
  • erection of walls and ceilings from timber;
  • roof installation;
  • roof and wall insulation.

For a wooden house with an attic, there is no need for a strong and solid foundation, the main thing is to take into account the load of both the first floor and the attic. In this regard, metal piles or a strip foundation are used as a support for a house made of timber. After the foundation is made, the construction of the walls begins. AT this process the most important thing is to lay the first crown correctly and beautifully, the quality and reliability of the entire building depends on it. In the joints between the bars, you must immediately put a heater. This is due to the fact that the tree can deform over time, and gaps are formed that can reduce thermal insulation.

Further, after the completion of the construction of the walls, it is necessary to determine the type of roof. It can be of several types, and the most common are single-sided, double-sided, broken. Most often, a gable roof is used for a house with an attic, although a broken line can make the overall design more interesting. Shed roofing is the least commonly used.

After completion of construction, it is necessary to wait for the shrinkage of the house from the timber and only then proceed to thorough insulation and further finishing.

Projects

There are many ready-made projects of houses from a bar with an attic various design, dimensions and other characteristics. You can also independently think over the plan of the house or turn to specialists.

Timber houses can be made in various sizes, the most common are: 6x6, 6x8, 6x9, 8x8, 9x9 square meters. m. Dimensions 6 by 6 and 6 by 8 square meters. m - these are buildings by type country houses, 8 by 8 or 7 by 8 sq. m - these are small cottages, and 9 by 9 sq. m - this is a full-fledged house.

The number of rooms and their location depends on total area home, the wishes of the owners and financial possibilities. AT little house for a small family on the ground floor, you can place a hall, a kitchen, a living room and a bathroom, and take the attic under a spacious bedroom. If necessary, a small guest room or a nursery can be arranged on the ground floor.

For medium-sized houses, you can either add a number of bedrooms, or expand the main rooms, for example, increase the size of the kitchen in order to equip the dining room. In order to use the attic floor, it is best to arrange a staircase in the hall, but it is also possible in the living room.

What elements to complement the overall design of the house - depends on the owners. On the attic floor you can equip a balcony or terrace, and on the first place a porch with a veranda. Windows with a bay window will give the appearance of the house a cozy and stylish look.

built country house on frame technology plus a small veranda. The cost came out quite economically, and in terms of 3 and a half months. Finished even a couple of weeks earlier than promised. We go to the country house only in the summer, so I can’t say anything about thermal insulation. Thanks
