Optimization can be called a distinctive feature of technological approaches to modern construction. It manifests itself in everything - from reducing the volume of materials to the exclusion of large-scale work related to the connection of special equipment. As a result, the costs for the implementation of the facility are reduced, and the quality characteristics of the structure are maintained at the proper level within the framework of the standards. Most clearly, the pros and cons of optimization are reflected in the construction of a frame house
A rafter is a part of a pitched roof support system that is not used in a single copy, but is used as a truss structure. This part consists of vertical racks, inclined rafter legs and inclined struts
The construction of the house ends with the construction of the roof. The rafter leg is an integral part of the entire system. How to calculate and mount it should be considered before work
How to build a low-rise house and save on material and costs? Choose beam ceilings during construction. They are usually cheaper, and their delivery and installation will not be a huge deal. Floor beams perform quite a few functions, but, first of all, they act as a stiffening diaphragm in the horizontal section of the house, thereby ensuring its strength and stability
Bar in the construction of houses and the assembly of various kinds of structures is used very often. The material is relatively inexpensive and at the same time easy to install. The cross section of the beam, if you want to build a house, mount a gazebo or a truss system of a beam, you should choose in compliance with certain standards
The reliability of the entire roofing system fully depends on the strength and solidity of the supporting truss and under-rafter structure. It is exposed to a large number of various external loads
Roof slopes perform not only protective-bearing functions, but also have a significant impact on the formation of the architectural and design image of the house. To a large extent, the visual adjustment of the proportions of the roof will depend on the characteristics of the overhang. This is a cornice unit, the width and position of which emphasize the boundaries of the roof slopes. Also, the design of this element can perform practical tasks
Building a log cabin is not easy, but the process is quite exciting. In our article we will try to give complete information about the construction of wooden structures. The manufacture of log cabins from a bar is very popular today. Firstly, such buildings are quite environmentally friendly.

Aerated concretes are stone materials of artificial origin, consisting of a certain binder and having many air cells that are evenly distributed inside. Now there are many types
Insulation of the fundamental walls according to the old standards - from inside the building - ensures the presence of cold bridges. They negatively affect the thermal insulation of the house, the microclimate and the degree of humidity in the room. Now it is more rational when building a house to insulate all walls exclusively from the inside. This method allows you to avoid the difference in heat transfer resistance of different sections of the wall, as a result of which cold bridges will not form
During construction, developers have to solve a lot of important issues. However, one of the main problems is the choice of the optimal width of the walls without additional thermal insulation
Among the current abundance of building materials for the construction of both large buildings and small buildings, I would especially like to highlight aerated concrete. Reviews about this material in most cases are extremely positive. It is convenient, practical and relatively inexpensive
In the modern world, it is a real pleasure to make repairs and ennoble the home and the territory around.

Sandpaper is used both in “manual” mode and in machine mode, for processing (cleaning) various surfaces, which are subsequently primed, sanded, painted, varnished, etc
The design features of the roof of the house are determined at the stage of project development. Then the selection of the necessary roofing material is made. The design of the roof and its slope depend on the climatic and operational conditions, as well as on the architectural requirements for the building and the degree of its solidity
The roof is being built at the final stage and is the final stage of building a house. How to design and build it correctly?
The roof construction system can be different depending on the type of roofing materials or geometry. It is conditionally possible to divide all roofs into 2 very large categories. The first includes all flat roofs, and the second - pitched
Throughout many centuries of practical house building, a wide variety of roof designs have been developed for different houses and buildings with different purposes. Each individual roof structure has construction features. Starting a review of the variety of roofs, we will go from simple to complex, because the simplest roof among all the variety is a shed structure, which consists of the simplest truss frame structure
Shed roof - the roof of the simplest and cheapest design. Her device is not difficult. To protect such a roof, you can use any traditional and modern roofing materials
How safe and comfortable people will live in the house depends largely on the correct choice of the angle of the roof.
