DIY bath construction

From time immemorial, Russian people have a love of the bath. To this day, does not change and remains faithful for more than a dozen centuries. For our people, the bathhouse has always served as a place for washing and purification. Not for nothing they say he went to the bathhouse as he was born again. The most precious place in the bathhouse is, of course, the steam room, there’s nothing special at first glance, a stove and shelves, but when you sit down, you sit and mold on the stove, it will give off raspberry heat, and then you will feel the Russian love for the bathhouse. Not some saunas and other overseas curiosity didn’t stand next to our beloved bathhouse. How many songs and poems did the people shine in the bathhouse “Ex bath, raspberry bath heat you”

You can praise the bath endlessly))).

Today there is a massive construction baths in summer cottages and country estates, because in Soviet times it was forbidden to build capital structures on 6 hundred parts. But about the bathhouse, and in general even no conversation was held, it was under a strict ban. Later, in the 90 years the people were not up to it. Now, Glory to God, a penny has appeared among the people and a bit of freedom of action.

People are drawn to their historical roots, and the bath accompanies the people from the beginning of its existence. And it will not be surprising if people begin to explore other planets, then the first building on the new earth should be a bathhouse.

Today's construction boom is also fueling the presence of a huge amount of building materials on the market. Of which only today baths are not built, the main and unchanging is a wooden log house, it is always in the first place, but they also use bricks, blocks, timber, which simplifies the construction process by an order of magnitude.

For example, from blocks, a box of a future bathhouse can be folded by one person, if desired, for a rather short period of time, without having construction skills.

Of course you can not compare with a log house, but still an alternative.

The author conceived the construction of a bathhouse on a personal plot, and the material for the construction chose a beam, which is also much easier at the construction stages, because there is no need to cut crowns, grooves and everything else.

Previously, baths were built mainly without a foundation, as a result of which the lower crown quickly fell into disrepair, due to dampness. There was basically no drainage system or sewage system either, and water poured directly onto the floor, and went into the ground through cracks in the floor.

But in our time, everything is far from the case, because people have learned how to put a bathhouse on a foundation, to make a drainage system, and a sewage system, as a result of which the life of a bathhouse is significantly increased. Lately, the bathhouse has been divided into two rooms, a steam room and a washing room, which also has a number of advantages with respect to temperature, because in order to bathe and wash, you do not need temperature and steam, a separate room was taken for these purposes.

The construction begins with the pouring of the foundation, then the erection of walls, roofing, installation of the sauna stove, interior decoration.

And so now let's take a detailed look at all the stages of construction, how he carried out these works, and what he needed for this.

Materials: 100 on 100 timber, cement, sand, roofing material, tow, roofing material, sauna stove, brick, chimney pipes, sewer pipe, car tires.
Instruments: chainsaw, hacksaw, ax, hammer, chisel, drill, screwdriver, trowel, mallet, level.

And so the first thing he suggests is to look at and figure out the scheme of the future bath.

The construction began in the winter and first rake the snow to clear the site for construction.

And then it pours the foundation, makes waterproofing.

Next begins to build walls.




Please note how the author makes a lock to hold the structure together.

As the walls are erected, window and door openings appear.


Then he makes the roof and ceiling, while installing a plumb line, so that later, accurately install the sauna stove.




And now the main part of the construction is finished, the log house is ready and hid under the roof.

Makes a sewer.



He proceeds to install a bath stove and chimney.









Proceeds to the interior decoration of the bath.






And now all the stages of construction are completed and the bathhouse is ready for subsequent operation.

From the sleepers? Come on, holy-holy-holy! : wink:
And who then likes to breathe with creosote? We don’t make sheds for cattle from sleepers - it’s too smelly to turn out ...
I bought an old house in the city. (For homemade products, by the way. At present, on the weekends I put the masonry, I attach it). In the courtyard lay about ten cubes of sleepers ... He made an announcement so that someone would pick up for free! In the three hundred thousandth city, no one wanted for a year! It’s hard to cut them for firewood, and sting of them stink! Barely got rid! I paid for the car that exported ....

A log house is not so difficult! The real one didn’t chop, but he built a "tower" in the yard when his little daughter was made of real thick logs on moss. Just a little - two by two meters on the outside. (Brother brought logs for firewood, they are from dead wood. I bought ready-made firewood for him, and took them.)
The first "lock" screwed up. And then - off and on. You just need to have spatial thinking. If there is no problem with this, it’s not so difficult ....
But here - conifers. And what's the point, if you still need to tighten the steam room with foil anyway? I would build from blocks, and that's all ...

And "in Russia", I think, from ancient times it was customary to build a bath from a tree purely because there was a tree, but blocks, cement and foil - no! : wink:

I am a very big fan of the bath! I like to steam on the top shelf, and then to brutally go away with a broom! : am:: crying:
Many people know this and I am often invited to the bathhouse. Therefore, I have been in so many!
So, honestly, I don’t see any difference between wood and stone !!! (Is it really more troublesome to dry wood then?: Wink :)
Logging can be done only by a professional carpenter, because the technology must be followed. A beam does not require skill, chopping grooves, other subtleties.

By the way, we have baths, some craftsmen make railroad ties.
Yes Valery, the bathhouse is exactly made (in Russia), from wood. A properly made bathhouse is enough for our century. But to "drive" such a bar into the bathhouse, is furious with fat.
Oddly enough, but for the bath the tree itself, linden. I do not mean the finish, but the logs. You can alder or aspen. Oak, only the lower crown.
He did not make the foundation in the winter !!! The foundation was flooded in the fall! In winter, it is very difficult and expensive to fill the foundation - you need to dig with a crowbar and an ax, add special anti-freezing additives to the water, prepare concrete somewhere warm and bring it ready. After that, you can build it somewhere next fall - the foundation, which is flooded in the cold, needs much more to stand up to than usual, made at plus temperatures. So, completely flooded in the fall, as everyone does.

By the way, the question is: is wood cheap in Russia? We have a cube of blocks, or a brick with delivery, it is three times cheaper than a cube of edged wood !! In addition, a wooden bathhouse is not so durable for anyone, so no one does it out of timber. It turns out worse and much more expensive ...
