Once binding is made in it for future logs slam floorings . Logs are made from the same boards as the piping . Be sure to make a good waterproofing of this part of the building. To do this, a harness and, of course , under Floor joists must enclose sections of roofing material . The segments should be approximately 200×200 mm .

First you need to install two corner posts, and just a few intermediate ;

then the selected angle can begin sheathing leaf frame oriented strand boards (boards should be put on a level and secured to the frame using screws ) ;

then you need to install a few more studs that should also be sheets of OSB sheathing .

Assembly of the design as a whole is by gradually adding studs to the racks of new OSB .

Roof framing baths

Before rising last farm on it is placed to form sheets of OSB gables . In order to make it easier to carry out assembly operations it is recommended to lay on the beams of the usual time- overlapping planks .

As for the roof , it is better to do a ventilated . To do this, the space between the rafters  necessary to lay special film , and the very stuff crate on board. It is best to stop the election on such material for the roof , as ondulin .

In the area where it is supposed steam room, a pier to the insulant should also add a special ” soft ” foil , and the rest of the walls close glassine .

You can then pull the board used as forests ( pre- need to turn them over to the right side ) and then nail them to the joists . For steam usually choose regular oven , stove with a heating boiler , installed by the changing room . In order to comply with all the requirements of fire safety, the part of the wall that shuts off the steam room lounges, you need to put standard building brick .

As already mentioned, the construction of frame type can be immediately and finish the outside and inside. Therefore, during the breaks can be prepared skeletons of partitions, and then knocked at their blockhouse ( in the lounge ) or the lining (preferably made ​​of wood ) in the remaining rooms . Waiting room is equipped with ceiling hatch with a ladder to access the attic.
