Construction of a modern country house simply cannot do without arranging a cellar. This important constructive element of the building plays a large role, and in places excludes the complete clutter of the site. The construction of the basement will be carried out depending on which budget will be allocated for it. Material capabilities determine the type of building material. The cellars of brick and logs, concrete and boards are quite in demand now. A significant typo on the type of structure is laid off the site itself. When forming the premises, great importance is given to the nature of the soils.
The most common options for arranging the premises is its formation under the design of the house. This has its advantages, both in terms of comfort and in terms of saving time. The basement is built simultaneously with the residential building. Depending on the construction goals, the room can be used for various purposes. If you use racks for its design, it is perfect for storing equipment and food products. If you go a little further and show creativity, the space can become a luxurious gym, tennis, billiard rooms and even a basement.
Despite the decision in terms of processing the basement, the basic construction rules should be taken into account in any case.
The design and arrangement of ventilation is mandatory;
The room does not place the toilet and the washbasin, and if you plan to decorate your own gym, you need to think about the shower cabin;
The temperature regime, especially in the winter, should be as comfortable as possible. It is possible to achieve the required effect by arranging thick floors or installing the “warm floor” system;
The wiring must be hidden, while all circuit breakers should be easily accessible.
If soil waters are located very close to the surface on the site, the basement can still be built, but on certain conditions. High -quality waterproofing, which should be laid at the level of the lower part of the base of the structure, is required. Then lays the floor, mainly concrete, and then the next layer of waterproofing is equipped. If this stage of construction is not provided, there will always be dampness in the room, with all the consequences. In all other basic nuances and trifles, you can adhere to the basic recommendations and rules.
