During the construction of a combined house, the lower floor is made of stone, and the upper floor is constructed of wood. This design makes it possible to fully implement everything positive sides selected materials and avoid the appearance of their negative features.

Service life

Stone is used due to the fact that it is very durable, has a long service life, does not rot, and does not begin to deteriorate from the influence of water and moisture. It is worth noting that many people often do not feel comfortable in stone buildings. When moving from an apartment outside the city, you want to feel more comfort. It is a little more difficult to heat a stone structure than a wooden one, but the reliability of the structure fully compensates for this shortcoming.

Wood, in turn, has a positive effect on the atmosphere inside, making the cottage more comfortable and warm, and also perfectly regulates indoor humidity. Wooden house creates a more emotional and personal feeling of home than typical high-rise buildings with neighbors on all sides. Some people are afraid of the fact that wood is an excellent burning material, and they are also afraid of exposure to moisture, fungi, small rodents or termites, but with modern technologies all these problems have long been solved.

Houses made of stone and wood ideally combine such an original base and upper floors, which makes it possible to eliminate two birds with one stone, separating the functionality of wood and stone in such a way as to obtain the advantages of each material. This structure also has a very non-standard, stylish and original appearance, which its owners will not fail to like.

Where should wooden structures be installed, and where should brick ones be installed?

Build inexpensive combined house need it right. The first floor of the building is made using brickwork. The most effective and a good decision Insulation will be arranged using the ventilated façade technique. Can also be used aerated concrete blocks. Thus, on the ground floor it is worth installing the most “flammable” rooms, such as a kitchen, a room with a fireplace, a sauna, and also a place for cars.

The attic floor is built using wood. The most commonly used are logs, laminated or profiled timber, unplaned timber with finishing and insulation. From above, the wood is securely covered by large roof overhangs, and it is separated from the wet ground by an entire floor. Thanks to special protective coatings such wood can last for a very long time without deteriorating or aging. Consequently, on this floor, with great comfort and better ecology, it is worth placing residential premises.

It is necessary to approach the choice of decoration inside the house with great responsibility, so that the stone and wooden parts of the house are harmoniously combined with each other. However, you should not create monotony in the interior; it is better to emphasize the advantages of each material. Such buildings are furnished inside in a “country” style, which effectively emphasizes the advantages of materials, as well as natural forms.

How to build a combined house inexpensively

The price of building a house depends on:

• the materials you decide to choose for construction;
• your design requirements;
• site location;
• building area.

By choosing high-quality and reliable contractors, you can build a real dream cottage!

Combined Vacation home- This is always an attractive structure that has been popular for many years. Such buildings first began to appear in the Middle Ages in the Alps; they were erected by shepherds during wintering. Gradually they began to gain popularity throughout Europe, until they reached our country. The “chalet” style allows designers to show all their creativity and imagination. For example, the top floor can be decorated in a medieval style.

Advantages of combined houses

A combined house is a harmonious symbiosis of the solidity and aristocracy of stone with the natural warmth of wood, providing the exterior of the home with a wonderful appearance, and the interior with an inimitable atmosphere, imbued with coziness and comfort. However, this is not all that these buildings have earned an excellent reputation and ensured wide popularity.

The main advantages of such houses include the following:

• Saving. Only the first floor is built from brick (sometimes from clay adobe, river shell rock or cinder blocks), and the second floor is made of wood. Such an architectural solution ensures a relatively low weight of the structure and, as a result, there is no need for very expensive foundation. Moreover, the costs of building a second floor also using stone are usually much higher than the costs when using wooden materials.
• High fire safety. It is obvious that the tree is flammable material, however, the construction of the first floor, where the kitchen, fireplace, and boiler room are usually located, from stone significantly reduces the risk of fire, and when such a need arises, it simplifies the localization of the fire.
• Durability. The brick has extremely high resistance to destruction under the influence of moisture and is distinguished by mechanical strength. In turn, timber and wood composites produced at Vitoslavitsa also have high resistance to negative influences environment and mechanical loads, however, reducing the frequency and intensity of such impacts only increases the service life of the house.
• All-season comfort. Combined houses made of stone and wood retain heat well. In the same time latest material helps stabilize indoor humidity, thereby achieving a comfortable microclimate in the premises.

Construction stages

If you do not take into account the development of the project, then the construction of any capital building It begins with the construction of the foundation. In this case optimal options are recessed strip and slab.

• Start of construction of walls made of stone (as mentioned above, materials such as brick, clay adobe, river shell rock, cinder block);
• Installation of floor coverings;
• Completion of the construction of stone walls;
• Installation of wall coverings;
• Assembly of the second floor (rounded logs, laminated veneer lumber or profiled beams are used);
• Installation load-bearing structure roofs;
• Arrangement of thermal, steam and waterproofing, as well as installation of roof ventilation;
• Roofing;
• Summing up utility networks and systems;
• Exterior and interior decoration of the house.

Combining materials is a favorite pastime of designers; in capital construction it is used to solve important practical problems. Proper combination of the physical qualities of stone and wood in the load-bearing walls of a building gives the developer a tangible benefit in cost and comfort.

It is these two factors that have made houses made of combined materials popular and widespread in modern suburban construction.

What combinations are reasonable and permissible when constructing such a structure?

Most often, stone (brick, monolithic concrete, aerated concrete or expanded clay blocks). The second floor is built from rounded logs or laminated veneer lumber.

It should be noted that combinations of different wall materials may also affect external finishing. A combined house allows you to use any options facade decor: brick walls The first floor can be finished with a blockhouse, insulating them using the “ventilated facade” technology.

The second frame floor can be decorated with decorative plaster or stone tiles. As an example, we invite you to look at the photo below.

Looking at such a house, you will not be able to unambiguously answer the question of what it is built from. load-bearing walls. Although it is also used here combined technology construction of walls. The first floor of this building is brick, lined with siding. The second is a wooden frame, finished ceramic tiles.

Constructive options for combined houses

Despite the variety of facade decor, the construction of combined houses must comply with the main principle: 1st floor is stone, 2nd floor is wood. It provides the building with the necessary strength and creates conditions for comfortable living on the second floor. Another problem solved by the combination of materials is reducing the labor intensity and cost of construction.

Anyone who does not want to spend extra money on exterior decoration is doing the right thing. The combination of stone and wood is optimal not only for structural reasons, but also from an aesthetic standpoint. Therefore, do not hide behind the finishing what looks perfect in itself.

An example would be a mansion built in a deliberately rough combination natural stone and logs. It fully complies with the canons of country style.

It originates from the harsh mountainous terrain, invented by Alpine shepherds. It also used the idea of ​​combining durable stone and warm wood.

Life in the mountains requires maximum reliability and functionality. Therefore, the first level of the chalet is always built from durable rock that is not afraid of snow debris, rockfalls and water. The second floor is designed to create comfort and coziness. Can't find one for these purposes best material than natural wood.

The “ancestral sign” of all buildings built in the chalet style is wide roof overhangs that protect the walls from heavy rains and melting snowdrifts.

Modern combined houses made of stone and wood are extremely diverse, since the choice of wall materials is very wide. If you are not satisfied with torn stone or flat limestone “flagstone”, then build the first floor from. They are quite durable and at the same time as warm as natural wood.

When preparing for construction, do not forget that houses made of foam blocks and wood require a reliable connection between the first and second floors. Cellular concrete– the material is quite fragile. Therefore, it will not hold the steel anchors securing the second level support beam.

A competent solution for such a design is pouring on foam block walls monolithic belt made of reinforced concrete. It increases the spatial rigidity of the building and allows you to securely fix the anchor bolts.

The appearance of a foam block wall is not very expressive. Therefore, it is better to cover it with blockhouse or siding, laying a vapor barrier and a layer of mineral wool insulation behind the façade cladding.

For the combined construction of a cottage you can use. They are stronger than foam concrete, not as fragile and very warm. Finishing arbolite walls not labor-intensive, since any decorative plaster.

The second floor can be built from planed timber. This material retains heat well in a residential floor and does not require finishing cladding.

If you need a three-level combined house made of brick and timber, then build it according to this scheme: the ground technical floor is monolithic reinforced concrete, the first level is brick, the second is a frame or log house.

Talking about frame version walls of the second floor, note that it will not only save your money, but also allow you to flexibly change internal layout, adapting it to family needs.

You can hide the frame of the second floor behind the finishing. Another interesting option- specially highlight it, turning it into an element of facade decor. For this purpose, half-timbering is best suited - an ancient frame system in which posts, beams and cross braces face the facade.

A serious problem with all cottages is dampness on the ground floor. A combined house solves it simply and functionally. The lower floor is reserved for utility rooms. Here you can equip a boiler room, a bathhouse, a workshop and a garage. Bedrooms, bathrooms, dressing rooms, playrooms and a kitchen are located on the second, drier floor.

A combined house and a combined facade are not the same thing!

As we have already said, the combination of different wall materials is the main feature of a combined building. In contrast, the combined façade of a house can be used on any residential building.

For example, by building a cottage from insulated sandwich panels, you can easily “disguise” it as a stone one. To do this, you can use ceramic tiles, sandstone, porcelain stoneware or rusticated plaster. If a regular one is used for laying walls, and not face brick, then a “combi-facade” would also be appropriate.

The photo shows a house being built from brick and timber. Obviously nondescript brickwork additional finishing will be required. It doesn’t have to be decorated like a stone. It is enough to fill the blockhouse along the guides and your house will be completely “wooden”. Another option is a combination of semicircular false logs on the first floor and laminated veneer lumber on the second.

Pros and cons of the combination idea

Having noted the main advantages of combined buildings: efficiency, planning flexibility, aesthetics and functionality, we will point out the disadvantages of such buildings.

The main one is different time“life” of stone and wood. In rocks it reaches 150 years. At best, the tree will last half a century. For light frames and panel walls this period will be even shorter. Therefore, a moment will inevitably come when the first stone floor is still quite strong and reliable, and the walls of the second floor already require repairs.

Since combined country houses in Russia are still quite young, there is no negative experience different speeds There is no aging of wall materials. Therefore, reviews from their owners are mostly positive.

To summarize, we advise everyone who has decided to build a combined cottage not to forget about the different service life of the first and second floors. To extend the life of the walls, buy well-dried and antiseptic wood, and trust the assembly of the frame to experienced professionals, not hackers.

For wooden frame A properly assembled drainage system is required to prevent moisture from entering the wood. In addition, at the construction stage, constant quality control of the sealing of all cross sections is required. wooden racks and beams.

Austrian style chalets in Russian cottage villages

The technology for building combined houses consists of laying the walls of the first floor from stone and using wood to assemble the second floor. The general name of the buildings is chalets. The word came from Austria: such buildings were often erected in the mountains.

GOOD WOOD builds combined houses from laminated veneer lumber of its own production and porous ceramic blocks Porotherm. These are safe and durable materials that can be used without additional insulation.

Why are combined houses so popular?

Chalets are a hit in cottage villages. Over the past 3-5 years, the popularity of combined projects has been steadily growing: several hundred families are already living in a standard KD-225, which has become a real bestseller among GOOD WOOD offerings.

Advantages of combined houses:

1. Non-standard appearance. Agree, against the backdrop of completely brick and wooden buildings, the chalets look very advantageous.
2. There are ready-made projects and many objects built according to individual drawings. It’s easier for the customer to choose suitable house and immediately determine the price of construction.
3. Reliable stable design. It will suit anyone who doubts the strength of wooden housing construction.

1. Combining two materials for families who have not yet come to a consensus on what to build a house from. The solution will suit both brick (ceramic block) supporters and wood lovers.
2. Division into residential and common areas. The first (stone) floor is reserved for the living room, kitchen, boiler room, and storage rooms. The second (wooden) floor is used for bedrooms and children's rooms.

Ready-made projects of combined houses

The catalog contains 3 ready-made projects: KD-225, KD-202 and a new development of our partners (architectural bureau "Carlson and K") - cottage K-1. For all standard cottages, a detailed package is provided - with materials, a description of construction technology and other details. For KD-225 and KD-202, you can even calculate the monthly heating cost in advance.

Combined houses are built using two or more materials. Cottage projects are popular mixed type, according to which combined houses made of stone and wood are built.

Advantages and disadvantages of combining materials

Working designs of combined houses and cottages usually involve a first floor made of stone (brick, gas or foam blocks) and a second floor made of wood. This solution has its advantages:

1. Fire protection. Brick and stone are non-flammable. On the ground floor you can install a fireplace, boiler and other equipment with an increased fire hazard.
2. Durability. Most from negative impacts the lower part of the house suffers, therefore, using brick or stone, you can ensure the durability of the structure.
3. Construction of housing from logs and stone or brick is cheaper than entirely stone (or brick) cottages. Savings are achieved not only due to the lower cost of wood, but also due to reduced costs for insulation and finishing work.
4. Energy efficiency. Wood retains heat better - this allows you to save on heating costs.
5. Decline total weight buildings and savings on foundation construction.
6. Aesthetics. With proper design, a house made of combined materials turns out to be unusual and attractive.

But for the compatibility of different building materials, it is necessary to protect one raw material from another: for example, wooden floor isolate from the lower part of aerated concrete and brick. If the first floor is monolithic and the second floor is made of logs, a concrete base is required.

Common options for combining materials

• stone and wood - a classic combination;
• from blocks and timber - a budget option;
• brick and timber or rounded logs - reliable housing, can be of any size;
• foam blocks and brick cladding- houses made of bricks and foam blocks imply a reduction in construction costs;
• monolith and log - a strong structure suitable for a respectable cottage;
• monolith and frame - suitable for regions with mild climates.

Layout internal space they are made taking into account the characteristics of the materials.

Modern houses are diverse architectural styles and provide a wide field of activity for unusual design solutions. Nowadays, low-rise houses and cottages are very popular. For those who strive for exclusivity and sophistication in the construction of their home, there is an excellent solution - a combined type house.

History of the chalet

A combined stone house combines environmental friendliness, strength and individuality. They can combine wood and stone, timber and brick. They are very practical and sometimes even cost-effective.

Combined buildings have been used for a very long time. Their ancestors are the houses of alpine shepherds or so-called chalets. These buildings had a stone bottom, and the superstructures and terraces were made of lighter materials or wood. Now such structures are firmly entrenched in our lives.

Advantages and advantages of combined buildings

Projects of combined houses built from mixed materials are very practical. Their advantage over other housing options exceeds all expectations. Typically, the lower part of a combined house is built of stone and is considered fireproof. This is, first of all, excellent fire protection.

In this part, premises that require reliable protection from fires: kitchen, garage, sauna, bathhouse and household premises, such as a laundry room or boiler room. In addition, stone and wood are environmentally friendly building material and have high strength, which ensures the durability of the building.

Another advantage of the combined type of construction is heat conservation. The lower floor, made of brick, will keep you cool even in hot weather; in winter, warmth is maintained by heating system. The upper tier of the building is made of wood and, according to the laws of physics, will always remain warm, even in the absence of heating, since wood retains heat perfectly, and it usually goes up.

But the main advantage of such buildings is their low cost, because the materials used for construction can be purchased in your region and without delivery from other areas, which significantly reduces their cost, and construction does not require the use of special equipment and the time for their commissioning is significantly reduced.

In addition to all these advantages, the combination diversifies the architecture, allows for free planning and individual solution in the decoration of facades and interiors.

Selection of material for construction

Stones can be used in the construction of combined houses natural origin, but their cost will be very high. To reduce the cost of construction estimates, foam blocks, bricks, or poured monolithic concrete are usually used during the construction of the first floor, since it is this tier that will bear the main load.

In the construction of the second floor, more lightweight material- natural timber coniferous trees or aspen. Most often, to reduce the cost, a house is built from combined timber. This is not inferior in design and quality to buildings made from natural materials.

Thanks to special technology Made from this material, a building will last even longer than one made from natural wood.

Combining materials during construction

Brick and wood play the same role as finishing materials, so they can be easily combined. Building a house from combined bricks may not require additional finishing of the facade, since the wood-brick combination itself looks attractive, the main thing is to choose the right architectural style.

It is not necessary to design a building according to the scheme: the first floor is stone, the second is wood. It is possible to provide a frame for the second floor not made of wood, but of metal, then in the construction of the second floor there will be elements of masonry or panoramic glazing, which will give the cottage a more interesting architectural option.

If a combined house has three levels, then it is most reliable to carry it out according to the project: ground floor– concrete monolith; the first is a brick, and the second is wood, timber or metal carcass followed by display glazing.

Finishing of the combined facade

The combined building does not have a certain style in the design of the facade. When choosing a building project, it is important to decide on its finishing. This may be designed in the same style, which will remove the external difference between the first and second floors.

Options for such finishing may be different: masonry facing bricks, panel design or decorative plaster. Alternative option design can be a combined facade of the house. This is the difference in finish for the bottom and top parts Houses.

The first floor can be faced with brick, natural or decorative stone, ceramic tiles. If the second floor is made of timber, then it can be left in original form, simply varnished, or you can line it with clapboard or wall panels.

Disadvantages of combined houses and choice of project

Having made a choice in favor of a combined building, one must also take into account its disadvantages. We must not forget that stone will last longer than wood and the service life of the first and second tiers is not the same. Therefore, when choosing a material, you need to carefully study what technologies were used to produce it, and make a choice in favor quality wood, and to assemble the frame it is better to contact specialists.

It is also necessary to pay attention to the correct installation of communications in order to avoid moisture getting on wooden base and the quality of sealing of all wooden structures.

Before you start building a house, it is important to decide on its external architecture, make a choice of design and project of the building itself. To do this, you can contact construction companies, study photos of combined houses, get advice from experienced designer and then the dream of two-story cottage will become reality.
