We prepare the unfinished construction site for the winter, depending on which stage it was interrupted: pitched, foundation, erection of walls.
At the stage of Kotlovan
If you started digging the pit and realized that you do not have time to lay the foundation before the start of rain and frosts, it is better not to hurry and postpone its construction until next year. The strength of the foundation depends on how many years there will be a future house and your safety in it.
So that the soil does not weaken from the effects of water and cold, before winter, it is necessary to strengthen and close the protective film. Another output is to bury, especially if construction occurs on clay or peat soil.
At the stage of the foundation and basement
The construction of a country house is often not stacked in one season. You may not have time or money, so the construction is divided, as a rule, for two years. In the first year, the foundation is laid, and the second leaves the walls, roof and internal arrangement.There are several types of foundation:
- Columnar.
- Pile.
- Ribbon.
- Slab.
You need to preserve for the winter only tape and slab. In the first case, it is necessary to carry out waterproofing, insulation and water removal, and in the second - waterproofing and insulation of the base of the foundation. And work on the preservation of the foundation for the winter can be started only a month after it was laid.
If you managed not only built the foundation, but already equipped the basement, you need to prepare it. To do this, clamzit and wood sawdust are poured into the floor. The walls are packed with wooden beams and insulate the polystyrene.
At the frame of the carcass
If the construction stopped on the construction of the walls, you can still put the construction. In this case, there are two scenarios.
- Installed a naked frame, without insulation. The walls are closed with waterproofing material, windows and doors are stuck in any material that does not conduct water.
- Warming has already been established. In this case, it is very important not to protect it from moisture, but also to ensure air ventilation in the house. You can install the windows and put them on the ventilation mode or tighten the window openings of the passing steam to the film.
If you have already managed to conduct a sewer, before leaving it must be dried and overlap. Also, do not leave inside the construction and finishing materials, various mixes in bags - it is better to take them to some warehouse.
Also, if the roof is not erected, a good solution is to establish a temporary roof. She will protect the house from the snow more than the reinforced film. For this, a simple frame of wooden boards is erected and covered with a waterproofing film and wide boards.
Features freezing of different frames
Wooden
The frame stage of frosting construction is slightly different for different types of houses. For example, a wooden house suffers more from moisture than the stone. Therefore, after all stages with waterproofing and establishing ventilation, wood is treated with a protective water repellent composition. It is best to use materials on an oil basis, as they not only prevent the appearance of the fungus and repel water, but allow the tree to breathe.
Stone
If there is no possibility to set a temporary roof, use a reinforced film by placing it with a large overlay to protect the house from snow. Also close the window openings geotextiles.
And the inner partitions, if you have already raised them, you need to stop with wooden beams just in case.
