How to choose a bar for construction

One of the best building materials when building a house is a tree. And this is not by chance, because the construction of a building from wood gives many advantages. The buildings are beautiful, warm, cozy and environmentally friendly. A special place among construction wood is a finished beam. It is easy to operate, perfectly retains heat, has high resistance to ignition. The building materials market is represented by three main types of timber.

The most popular and cheap is the beam of natural moisture. It is especially widely used in construction, but has certain disadvantages. For example, its primary humidity can reach 80 percent. This means that for the first time six months after the construction, the building can sneak up by 10 percent, and this can lead to cracks. It will be possible to get rid of them by lining the walls with a wagging or overlapping with a brick. The second type is a strict profiled beam. Compared with the first view of the beam, it has huge advantages. On the ends of this beam there are recesses with which the house is designed very simply, all details are ideal for each other. This will help to avoid cracks that would have to be finished. All you need to polish the walls, paint and cover them with varnish. The maximum subsidence of the building will not exceed 5 percent.

The best of three types is glued beam. When applying its construction, the building is being built many times faster, and at the same time practically do not sag. A beam of wooden boards is made, which are previously drained and treated with antiseptics. This allows you to achieve a minimum subsidence of the building, no more than 1 percent. Houses built from glued beams look very beautiful and natural, while they do not need additional decoration.
