The most important and basic element in building a house is the foundation. Any construction begins with him. Before installing the foundation, you need to choose its type. It depends on the soil and on the weight of the load-bearing walls that will be installed on this foundation. There are three types of foundations: columnar, shallow-buried tape and deep-buried tape. We also advise you to buy curtains for the nursery.
Column foundation, the most economical of all types. Such a foundation can be made for frame houses, wooden (light, for example a bath) structures, a veranda. The pillars are laid to the depth of freezing, installed at all corners, and every 1.5-2 m. The pillars must be protected from extrusion of lateral grip.
A shallow-recessed strip foundation is installed for log houses of timber houses and other wooden structures, possibly some stone houses of small sizes. Such a foundation is laid to a depth of 0.5-0.7 m. This foundation must be laid on slightly heaving soil or on another soil, which should be insulated around the foundation..
A deep-buried strip foundation is installed for houses with heavy walls and ceilings, and if an underground room will be made in the house. For the price, this foundation is more expensive than those listed above, since it requires a lot of materials. This foundation is laid 25-30 cm below the freezing depth.
