The technology of building houses from glued laminated timber came to us from Finland. This material was ideal for their harsh and changeable climate. Wood has always been considered a unique building material, which is distinguished by its characteristics.

And thanks to the technology of wood processing, the properties and characteristics have increased several times. However, houses made of laminated veneer lumber differ not only in durability, warmth and practicality. They are also very beautiful.

Such houses can please everyone, because the noble look of the tree will not leave anyone indifferent. Let's find out more about these buildings, and also look at some house designs that can be brought to life.

Construction technology

Glued laminated timber has many advantages, however, many people appreciate it for the minimum shrinkage during construction. What does it mean? A house made of laminated veneer lumber will be completely ready for occupancy much earlier, since you do not need to wait a whole year for the building to shrink. Shrinkage depends on the amount of moisture in the wood. And if there is a lot of it in an ordinary log house or a rounded log, then glued beams undergo special drying at the production stage.

The construction of such a house takes place in several stages:

1. To begin with, they arrange a strip foundation (if the house is small, then they make a pile or columnar). To do this, a trench is dug along the perimeter, gravel and sand are poured onto the bottom, 10-15 cm high.
2. After that, the formwork is exposed using wooden panels or plywood. The formwork is reinforced so that the concrete does not destroy the structure. In addition, the walls can be covered with foil from the inside. So, it will be easier to remove the formwork after pouring.
3. The foundation is reinforced with reinforcement rods, making a mesh out of them. It is placed inside the formwork. At this stage, sewer drains and water supply lines are equipped. It remains only to prepare the concrete, pour the foundation and level the surface. It will dry for a month.
4. Before erecting the walls of laminated veneer lumber, a layer of roofing material is laid on the foundation. To do this, it is lubricated with bituminous mastic. This is a waterproofing layer that will keep the house from rotting.
5. Finally, it is time to lay the first crowns of the log house. The beams are connected to each other by means of pins. It is easy to assemble a house from laminated veneer lumber, since all the details are already ready, so all that remains is to put them in their places.
6. At the end, the roof is made. Your house is built. The most important thing is that due to the ideal shapes of glued beams, there will be no cracks in the walls. This means that a winter house made of laminated veneer lumber will be very warm.

Due to the ease of installation, minimal shrinkage and excellent heat savings, many people are so fond of houses made of laminated veneer lumber.

Advice! Construction will cost you dearly, since the material itself is quite expensive. But, the quality of the material remains at the highest level.

But what else consumers like so much is the ability to create a house from a bar at will. Since the material is easy to process, you can build a variety that will delight both you and those around you.
