A gazebo on the site today is not a luxury, buturgent need. In this small room they spend their holidays with the family, receive guests, arrange holidays, etc. Building such an object in the garden or in the yard with their own hands is a snap. Especially if an easy-to-work technological bar will be used for its construction.
Types of wooden arbors
From a bar it is possible to collect only two types of structures.Frameworks are very beautiful. In addition, it is the cheapest building - shield gazebos from a bar. With their own hands, they are going to be very simple. Therefore, this option is by far the most popular among summer residents. You can also build a more thorough gazebo, the parapet of which will be entirely assembled from a bar. Sometimes, in this way, gazebos are also being built in suburban areas, which can be used all year round. Very often braziers are installed inside these structures. It is possible to make such useful furnace equipment both from a brick, and from a stone or metal.
We make a project
Of course, the construction of such facilities aspavilions of timber, with their own hands should begin with drawing up drawings. It is best to draw two schemes of construction - the front and profile. It is also worth making a plan from above with the placement of all the necessary garden furniture and the necessary equipment.
The shape of the arbor can be rectangular ormultifaceted. The first option in the construction is very simple. A somewhat more complicated technology is used to build a multi-faceted arbor out of a bar. The hand drawings in this case are drawn up with an indication of the method of fastening the components and the calculation of the position of the corner posts. Only in this case, you can build a neat structure.
Of course, when drafting a project, it is necessary to perform various kinds of calculations concerning the amount of material required and its final cost.
How to choose a timber
Arbors from a bar, built with their own hands ingarden or in the courtyard, are reliable, beautiful and durable only if they were originally selected quality material. For the construction of these facilities usually take coniferous wood. This may be, for example, fir, pine, cedar or spruce. The second option is the most preferred. Pine very well tolerates the effects of various kinds of adverse environmental factors. In addition, this tree is smooth, durable and attractive shade.
It is possible to build a beautiful arbor from both profiled and laminated veneer lumber. Most owners of country plots choose the first option as cheaper.
Foundation construction
Since arbors from the bar, do it yourself (photothese structures can be seen on the page) are usually built light and small, too powerful base for them to fill is not necessary. An inexpensive columnar foundation would be sufficient. It can be erected both from ceramic bricks, and from wood or concrete. The latter option is considered the cheapest and most popular with owners of suburban areas. Pour such a foundation as follows:
- Perform the marking, using inelastic strong cord and wooden long pegs.
- Drill pits under poles with a diameter of about 30 cm and a depth of about 50. The distance between them should be no more than 1.5 m.
- A little rubble is poured on the bottom of the pits and tamped with it.
- The formwork is installed from rolled-up roofing material and four reinforcing rods tied together with a yoke.
- Produce fill pillars. In the upper part of the extreme welders insert rods under the stands of the arbor. Above the surface, they should protrude 20 cm.
After waiting a couple of weeks, the foundation is waterproofed on top with two layers of roofing material and proceed to the construction of walls.
Assembling the frame and parapet
При обустройстве таких сооружений, как щитовые gazebos of timber, with their own hands in the first place make the lower trim. In the corners, the material is placed on the rods and fastened in a half-wood way. In the middle of the gazebo pave one lag. Further strictly vertically establish angular racks. They are fastened to rods poured into the foundation and additionally on galvanized corners. Next, install the top trim and nail the handrail of the railing, leaving room for entry.
That's the way the frame is going toconstructions, as a simple arbor from a bar the hands. If the building is not a shield, but a normal one, the next one is put on the lower crown, also connecting them by the “half-tree” or “by hand” method to the height of the parapet. Then spread in the same way, only the corners or set them on the rack. If the gazebo is closed, the timber is laid to the very top.
Roof assembly
The question of how to make a gazebo of timberhands, beautiful and neat, comes down to the correct assembly of the roof. Roofs on these structures are usually made multifaceted. For a rectangular gazebo suit chetyrehskatnuyu. She is going to like this:
- Two beams are installed on the top trim at the corners diagonally. From the bar with a thickness of about 40-50 mm they grind an octahedral column along the height of the roof and fix it on their intersection.
- The first set of angular stop. Landing nests can be cut both in themselves and in racks.
- Mount four intermediate (auxiliary) rafters. To the stand in the middle all the legs are attached with long nails.
- Across rafters fix crate of a narrow board.
- Mounted sheets of metal or any other roofing material.
Sheathing shield parapet shield
You can decorate the railing frame structurenormal board or clapboard. The latter is best mounted on the hidden Klyymery in a vertical position. In this case, water will not accumulate in the grooves between the lamellas during rain. Sometimes the gazebo parapet is also sheathed with metal profiles or plywood. You can simply install balusters. In this case, the railings are fastened last. The balusters themselves are fixed to the binding bar through the floors on metal studs about 8 cm long. The handrail can be bolted onto them.
Rack decoration
It looks very impressive trimmed with thinarbors from a bar. With your own hands (a photo of such a structure can be seen below) it’s easy to make this spectacular decor. Decorative slatted frames are assembled on the ground. Then they are set above the parapet. For their installation you need to prepare a fairly thick bar. A rectangle is knocked out of it in accordance with the size of the arbor opening and fixed to the resulting frame of the slats at an angle of 45 or 90 degrees. Next, make another such rectangle from a bar and also beat it. Then both frames are connected to each other in such a way that the slats are inside the resulting structure and are located crosswise. Then the finished decorative elements are inserted into the openings.
The final stage
After the construction of the arbor of timbertheir hands will be over, proceed to the floor covering. In the open construction of the board, it is better not to have close, but at a short distance from each other (about 3-4 mm). In the resulting gap in the rain water will flow. The ceiling in the gazebo is usually not sheathed. But you can trim it with a trimmed board.
At the final stage, the structure will need to beit is necessary to paint or varnish, intended for use on the street. This will significantly extend the life of the gazebo. It is also possible to use special oil for the treatment of wooden elements. It does not crack, as paint, and does not depart rags, as varnish.
BBQ in the gazebo
When assembling a barbecue from a brick foundation under itit is filled in simultaneously with the device of the basis of the arbor. It is desirable first of all to build the brazier itself, and to erect the walls after it is ready. Collect brick barbecue, taking advantage of the order.
How to design and equip a gazebo
Of course, the erected structure necessarilyneed to decorate. Usually liana plants are planted around the gazebo. It can be ivy, wild grapes or hops. You can also plant unpretentious marigolds, petunias, decorative cabbage, etc. in the flower beds. In the gazebo itself, a table is set (usually in the middle) and benches. You can also hang inside the box for storing garden tools, barbecue utensils, etc.
As you can see, build a gazebo of timber with itshands is not difficult at all. Even an inexperienced young owner of a country plot can cope with this task. Forces and means for the construction of an arbor usually take a little, and the benefits of it turn out to be enormous.
