Combined brick-laminated timber houses with garage. Combined houses made of stone and wood (51 photos): projects, advantages, construction features

Among the completed works on the construction of housing of various types, a significant place is occupied by combined houses, projects using a combination of building materials with different characteristics, for example, a house made of stone and wood. Why are these structures so popular?

Benefits of combined projects

The correct combination of various building materials used in the construction of building structures allows you to optimally combine the advantages of each of them, minimizing their disadvantages.

For example, a stone is immune to any external influences, including fire. But it is too heavy and large, and a structure built entirely of stone will not withstand any foundation and in some cases it will require reinforcement. But the use of wood for the construction of the upper part of the building will not only reduce it specific gravity, but also provide excellent appearance. In addition, wood will significantly reduce the cost of construction.

Therefore, design and construction combined houses on a turnkey basis is one of the priority areas of the Krovmarket company.

Projects of combined houses in Chalet style

Among the housing construction projects that combine various building materials, there are such as:

What could be better than natural building material? This question can be considered rhetorical. When thinking about natural, wood immediately comes to mind. She possesses unique qualities that cannot be replicated in the laboratory. But do not forget about natural stone. Its strength and resistance to various influences is amazing. Natural stone is great solution for building a foundation. Why not combine them in one building? How this can be done will be discussed in the article.

What is the advantage

The model of combined houses, where the main materials are wood and stone, is not new. Initially, this solution was used in the Alps. And rightly so, because all the building material was at hand. Stones were used to build the foundation. The first floor could also be laid out of it, which was used as a pantry for various utensils. Due to heavy snowfalls, the first floor was often covered with snow, but thanks to the stone, there was no detrimental effect on the structure. On the second floor of the house were the rooms of the inhabitants. The wood perfectly retained heat, so even strong winds were not terrible. Guided by this information, it is easy to highlight the positive points regarding combined buildings:

  • high strength;
  • durability;
  • good thermal insulation;
  • resistance to various weather conditions;
  • material availability.

When choosing a combined option, it is also important to know about the disadvantages of such a structure:

  • high cost of the project;
  • a certain complexity of construction;
  • the need for high-quality insulation;
  • the need for insulation of the basement.

It is worth saying that in modern construction, instead of natural stone, combined options can be used different kinds block, and natural stone serves as a lining for them. The cost of such a combined design is much higher when compared with frame house, but in strength it surpasses it. The construction of a combined building requires a special and careful approach to details, only in this case it will turn out the best way combine wood and stone. It should be not only practical, but also attractive. The building block needs insulation. If this is not done, then significant heat losses will occur through it. The wood must be separated from the building blocks by waterproofing. In its absence, the support beams can rot, which will lead to destruction.

How not to build

The wrong way of combining different building materials can significantly reduce their lifespan. For example, in some cases, the developer offers to perform partial or complete cladding of a brick building using wooden clapboard. From an aesthetic point of view, this interesting solution, but from a practical point of view, it will be necessary to take into account many points and process the wood in a special way so that it does not undergo putrefactive processes. There were cases when a sufficient gap was not provided between the brickwork and the wood cladding. Due to the different expansion coefficient, cracks and deformations appeared in the wood.

Facing wooden structure also not always a good idea. If the building is assembled from rounded timber, then there is no need for such a cladding. In a relationship frame houses it's important to be careful. Partial cladding is allowed, as it can add zest to the project, but full stone cladding is simply impossible. It has a significant weight, for which the walls, as well as the foundation, are not designed.

historical background

The best way to build a combined building will allow an understanding of what they were originally. Particular attention was paid to the roof. In a combined house, it was necessarily pitched and gently sloping. The angle of inclination was kept low to reduce windage and wind load. The rafter system was massive, and additional stones were laid on top of the flooring, which held it. In the original houses, which are called chalets, the roofs had a large overhang. In some cases, it reached three meters. This was done to achieve two goals:

  • protect the wooden part of the house;
  • collect more snow.

The large overhang of the combined house perfectly protected its wooden part from the effects of precipitation. With constant contact with moisture and water, the wood loses its shape and can dry out. In addition, in rainy weather, under such slopes, it was possible to do certain things. In summer, a wide overhang protected the residents from the scorching sun. A large overhang also increases the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe roof itself. The larger it is, the more snow can be held on it. Snow serves as a natural insulator that reduces heat loss through the roof. The attic floor in the combined chalets has always been residential.

Note! This approach can be used in the modern construction of combined houses, where it is allowed. climatic conditions. Under a wide overhang, for example, you can organize a terrace.

Roofing in the classic version of the combined house was wooden tiles. It was made from aspen, cedar, larch or oak wood. The elements were fixed to the rafter system with wooden nails. Such flooring for a combined house could easily be made independently. The advantage was ease of repair, as well as excellent sound insulation. From modern materials soft shingles will be an excellent replacement. It can be matched to the overall structure, which will not disturb the harmony.

One of the notable features of the house, which is made by combining materials, is a wide balcony. From above, it was closed with a visor and was a continuation of the second floor. Wooden piles served as a support for it. A similar approach can be applied in modern combined houses. good decision there will also be the use of French windows, which will blur the line between the interior of the room and nature.

Finished projects

An interesting completed project of a combined house made of stone and wood can be seen in the photo above. The basis of the combined house is natural stone, and not modern block. This approach made it possible to perfectly fit the house into the landscape. A natural hill was chosen as the place for the construction of the combined house, so a garage was built from below, the entrance to which was also lined with natural stone. The stone is also present in fragmentary decoration, which made it possible to blur the border between stone and wood. The roof is tiled, and the overhangs are made with sufficient offset.

The photo above shows another interesting project of a combined cottage house. This version of the combined structure will look great outside the city. The lower part of the building is fragmentarily finished with stone, and the upper part is assembled from timber. Before the entrance is large terrace, and on the second floor there is a balcony, which is closed from precipitation by roof overhangs. The basis of the combined building is a strip foundation, and the terrace is installed on a column foundation. This allows you to reduce costs and not lose strength.

Above is another version of the combined house. Its peculiarity is that it already looks like a chalet, but like a Russian hut. The wooden part of the combined house is made of logs. This made it possible to achieve excellent thermal insulation in the combined building. For the windows of the combined house, frames made of plastic profiles are used, which have lamination. The foundation of the house is tape deepened and finished with stone on the outside. Soft tiles are in perfect harmony with the materials.

The combined building, which can be seen in the photo above, is presented in a modern minimalist design. Its upper part is built in a frame way, which made it possible to reduce the load on the first floor.

This project is an example of combination in facade decoration. Combined building built from wooden beam. The roof slopes have a small angle of inclination and wide overhangs. The corner of the house and the plinth are finished with natural stone. There is not much of it, so it does not put much pressure on the walls. French windows are installed on the first and second floors of the combined building, which occupy the entire height of the wall.

This combo house project is a great example of how you can beautifully combine two different building material. As seen, combined house built according to frame technology. Its first floor is finished with natural stone. The pillars that support part of the combined building are also covered with natural stone. Above is a large terrace where you can sunbathe.

In this project, everything is thought out to the smallest detail and perfectly combined. Under the upper terrace of the combined house there is a recreation area, which is perfectly protected from the rain. The site near the first floor of the combined house is filled with concrete, it does not protrude above ground level, which makes it possible to eliminate sharp transitions. Natural stone is present not only on the lower level, but also visible on the chimney and part of the second floor. The roof finish is very similar to that used in the classic version of the chalet. A video about the combined house project is below.

Saving. As a rule, the first floor is made of brick, and the second is made of wood. This makes the structure relatively light, due to which the construction of an expensive foundation is not required.

Fire safety. Usually on the ground floor there is a kitchen, a boiler room, a fireplace. In this case, brick walls reduce the risk of fire.

Comfortable microclimate. The combination of stone and brick allows you to retain heat well in the premises and provides an optimal level of humidity.

The strength of bricks and the natural beauty of wood are the main criteria that make a person choose these materials for centuries. And if you combine them, you can generally get an unexpected result in terms of aesthetics.

Which option should be preferred: the first floor is brick, the second is wooden - or simply, as shown above, use wood to make architectural elements?

And in general, what projects of combined brick and wood houses can be adopted by those who decide to build a house with their own hands? You will learn about this, and much more, from the material presented by us.

How to combine wood and brick

Both wood and brick, with equal success, can play the role of both constructive and finishing material– therefore, they are easy to combine. If we talk about the building as such, it can be called combined, when at least two walling technologies are used in the construction process.

Note! Since wood has less strength than brick, they are often combined like this: 1st floor is brick, 2nd floor is wooden - the house looks very interesting, especially if any architectural style is sustained in its design.


In addition to the fact that such combinations decorate the facade very much, they also make it possible to really save the construction budget. The use of lighter material at the upper level allows to reduce the load on the foundation.

And then, the second floor can be built not only from heavy timber or logs - there are other alternatives.

Frame walls for the second floor

One of them can be considered frame technology. Its essence lies in the construction of a wooden frame, which serves as the basis for creating a multilayer structure of thick insulation, protective rolled membranes, inner and outer skins.

As a result, light and very warm walls are obtained:

  • It should be said that outside wooden frame sheathed with moisture-resistant plywood or OSB boards. These materials are also related to wood, as they are its derivatives. In the process of finishing, they are often painted, performing contrasting decorative stitching with wooden or composite slats, which makes it possible to implement the “half-timbered” design, which you see in the photo below.

  • If the price is decisive for you, then keep in mind that the construction of the second floor using frame technology provides maximum savings. You can, of course, use it to build the whole house, but along with undeniable advantages, there are many disadvantages. The insulation embedded in the structure has a limited service life - after a couple of decades, the casing has to be dismantled in order to replace it.
  • The beam from which the frame is assembled is also, no matter how you process it, but it rots over time. Therefore, in terms of service life, frame houses can not compete with the durability of brick buildings. Add here the increased fire hazard and attractiveness for insects and rodents - and you will understand that it is better to build the first floor of the house from brick.

  • The layout in such houses is usually carried out as follows. Downstairs are the rooms common use: entrance hall, kitchen and dining room, living room. Guest rooms are also often located on the first floor. At the upper level, bedrooms, children's rooms are planned, equipped working area: office or workshop. Bathrooms in two-story house usually do both at the bottom and at the top.
  • Incidentally, in the planned low-rise buildings, the frame can be provided not from wood, but from metal, which will allow the introduction of brickwork elements not only below, but also on the second floor. In such projects, panoramic glazing is often present, which makes such combinations even more interesting.

  • The concepts of many architectural styles: hi-tech, techno, minimalism - do not involve the use of wood at all. That is why in such houses there is no wooden windows and traditional frame roofs constructed from wooden rafters. Their design is based on various combinations of materials such as concrete, metal, glass.

Brick, if present, is only as a structural material, the surface of which is lined or plastered. If wood is used, it is only for partial finishing, a variant of which you can see in the example below.

Well, to each his own, and tastes differ! Next, you will be provided with installation instructions. wooden structures, without which it is impossible to build an ordinary private house.

Wooden structures for a brick house

A brick wall is an excellent solid foundation for building a second floor of wood. By and large, there is not much difference whether to make a full-fledged second floor, or build on an attic.

Their difference lies only in the height of the walls, and the absence in the attic beam ceiling.

Connecting brick and wood between floors

Since the entire upper part of the house is made of wood, which means it has a relatively small weight, the armored belt between floors can be omitted. In general, the decision to install armored belts on the walls, in low-rise construction accepted depending on bearing capacity wall material and type of cover.

Note! By itself, the brick has the necessary strength to withstand even the weight of reinforced concrete slabs - the main thing is that the thickness of the masonry is correctly calculated for this. Moreover, it is brick, along with concrete, that is often used for the construction of armored belts on walls made of foam and gas blocks. So, you don’t have to worry about this, even if the walls of the second floor are built from a fairly heavy beam or log.


So:

  • If the ceiling is beamed, then an additional reinforcing row in the form of a steel mesh should be provided along the upper row of brickwork. Under the slab, which creates additional loads, it will be necessary to lay several rows of interconnected reinforcing bars along the walls, as shown in the photo above.
  • But we think that if you decide to build the second floor of wood, you are unlikely to want to complicate the work and mount concrete plates. In any case, in order to install structural elements wooden walls on brick walls, in the masonry, anchor bolts should be embedded, allowing for mechanical fastening.

Strips of roofing material are strung on the studs, which will serve as a waterproofing layer between the perimeter of the brickwork and the lower crown of the timber or log wall. If the second floor will be built using frame technology, on brick wall beams will be mounted similarly bottom strapping. To clearly understand this process, the video in this article will allow.

Ceilings and floors

Before talking about how to make a wooden floor in brick house, you need to decide on the design of the floors. The process of laying a frame-type flooring, which is a wooden floor, is simplified as much as possible on a wooden beamed ceiling.

In this case, the boardwalk is part of a multilayer floor structure. But first, of course, it needs to be mounted correctly - and we will try to briefly talk about how this is done.

First of all, it is necessary to turn close attention on the quality of the timber, which will carry considerable loads:

  • Firstly, it should be softwood, which works best for bending.
  • Secondly, it is better if it is a planed, well-dried beam, the length of which should completely cover the run - the distance between opposite load-bearing walls.

  • Since the walls of the first floor are built of brick, the installation of floor beams is carried out in the same way as in all brick houses. Their length depends on the chosen method of fastening: if these are special metal consoles, then it is equal to the length of the run.
  • When the ends of the beams are laid in specially provided nests in the wall, the necessary margin must also be taken into account: 12-15 cm from each end. The only thing that should not be forgotten is that wood should not come into direct contact with metal or brickwork anywhere.
  • Therefore, the ends of the beams are wrapped with protective material, without tightly closing the ends, and, if necessary, shock-absorbing pads are installed under them. To prevent the appearance of cold bridges, the free space of the recesses into which the ends of the beams will wind up is filled with insulation.

  • As for metal fasteners, it must be stainless - otherwise, its corrosion will provoke the process of decay in the thickness of the wood. Design attic floor similar to the interstitial option. Only the beams are fastened to a wooden wall in a slightly different way, and their cross section may be smaller - in any case, if the attic is non-residential.
  • Since the space between the beams is then filled with insulation, the step of the floor elements is selected based on the width of the material, but usually does not exceed 60 cm. The beams can, of course, have a square section, for example: 150 * 150 mm, but this size is used mainly when they want to use them in the design of the ceiling.
  • The most economical in terms of wood consumption is the option with a section of 50 * 150, or even 50 * 180 mm - that is, in fact, this is a thick board installed on the edge. You can see an approximate scheme for assembling a beam ceiling in the picture above. Here, the insulation is laid on the boards with which the ceiling of the lower room is hemmed.

  • But there is another version as well. Small-section cranial bars are mounted to the sides of the beams, on which wooden shields or plywood are laid. This approach gives more opportunities for decorating the ceiling of the lower room - for example: you can install a stretch or suspended ceiling there.
  • A vapor barrier membrane is mounted on top of the beams, which simultaneously plays the role of a shock-absorbing layer. Then, as a rule, in the transverse direction, a counter-lattice is stuffed - it will serve as the basis for installing the floor covering. If you want to make not a boardwalk, but, for example, lay a roll covering: linoleum, carpet, or build a warm floor system into the “pie”, then you first have to mount a subfloor made of plywood or chipboard.

  • According to a very similar scenario, the filling of frame walls is also carried out. If the second floor of your house will be built using this technology, then along the upper perimeter of the walls, as well as from below, horizontal piping of the racks will be mounted. By the way, the strapping beam here will play the role of a Mauerlat, which serves as the basis truss system roofs.
  • By the way, regardless of the design of walls or ceilings, it is always constructed from wood. In addition, few people would think of installing plastic joinery in the openings of wooden walls - so here you can’t do without wood. The technology for installing wooden windows in a brick house does not differ much from the process of installing them on log or frame walls, and instructions on this topic are easy to find.

And yet, you can make a balcony out of wood, and shutters, decorate the porch beautifully, build a terrace at the entrance, put a capital canopy or an elegant pergola.

There are a lot of options for using wood in home design: both exterior and interior - and for those who love and know how to work with it, there is a wide field for creativity. It remains only to put your talents into practice, and then long years admire the fruits of your labor and enjoy the energy of the tree.

The original projects of combined houses are gaining more and more fans every day. And this is natural. Combination various materials makes it possible to arrange in an individual style. The practice of such construction shows that the use of this technology significantly reduces.

The original project of the combined house

The main feature that distinguishes the combined Vacation home from others, is that the first floor is made of more durable materials, and the following floors are made of lighter ones. So, for example, for the foundation of a building they successfully use:

  • blocks, different composition, including foam concrete, aerated concrete, wood concrete, porotherm and others;
  • house made of natural stone.

For the construction of the top of the building, as a rule, apply:


Another direction in the construction of houses of the combined type is the use of alternative decoration of the building, completely built from a homogeneous material, with decorative details. It could be like individual elements, and a combined facade. In some cases, the use literally masks the original building material used during installation.

Benefits of combining materials

The construction of combined houses, based on the principle of combining different materials, has obvious benefits.


Origins of combined buildings

The combination of materials in the construction of residential buildings has been used for more than one century, both in European countries and in Russia. It is traditionally believed that this method of construction is based on the chalet style, which came into modernity from the Alpine mountains.

The massive stone foundation of residential buildings in those places was due to necessity, since a house on a mountain slope had to withstand snow and storm flows.

At the same time, living quarters built of wood were protected from the weather by wide roof awnings, and they are considered the main difference. In Russia, wood was also popular mainly among merchants and artisans.


The project of a combined cottage made of stone and timber

As a rule, the first floors were adapted for shops and workshops, and wooden second the floor was furnished for living. Despite the high cost of construction, this method of erecting buildings was justified, since the wooden floor removed from the ground was protected from flooding and fire, and, therefore, had a longer service life.

In modern design, combined houses made in the style of a chalet differ not only in the stone base and wide roof canopies, but also.

Respectable brick and wood houses

There are many people who want to realize the project of their own combined brick and wood house. Brickwork traditionally considered an indicator of the solvency and respectability of the owner.


Finished project respectable house of brick and wood

In the combined construction of houses and cottages, both silicate and ceramic bricks are successfully used to construct the first floor of a combined house. The superstructure of the brick base of the house can be made of any type of wood.

A combined house made of bricks and glued laminated timber is considered a classic option, since it has an attractive appearance, is easy to install and does not shrink, and also has high thermal insulation properties.

An alternative option, of course, is lined with decorative wood paneling, for example, a block house.


The project of a combined house made of wood and brick

It should be noted that the manufacture of a wooden superstructure significantly reduces the cost of construction, since the price of the wooden components of the second floor is significantly lower than the additional brick for customization. However, the technology for arranging such houses allows the construction of the entire building from the main material, and only the facade of the house is decorated with wood details.

In some cases, a combined finish is used when, together with the decoration of the facade, additional wooden elements are installed, such as,.

Economic projects of houses from foam blocks and wood

For economical developers, projects of houses using block materials will be especially interesting. By virtue of its affordable price and thanks to the simple construction, combined houses made of foam blocks and wood are very popular. And also as a material for the construction of the first floor, blocks of other cellular concrete compositions, in particular, which has characteristics similar to foam concrete.

A house built of blocks and wood has all the advantages of combined buildings, but there are additional advantages:


When carrying out work on the installation of the second floor on a block base, it must be taken into account that pouring a concrete reinforcing belt is a prerequisite for reliable fastening of wooden structures. The frame, consisting of a timber structure, or the timber itself, is already connected to the armored belt with steel anchors. wooden floor can be made of any type of wood, however, the most budgetary solution would be a wooden frame with good insulation and trimmed with decorative panels.
