Frame house. Feedback based on world practice

In the world construction market, the technology of frame houses has been prevailing for a decade now . Very often such housing can be seen in the US, Canada and Finland. Unfortunately, the frame house (which you rarely hear about from local builders) in our understanding is connected with something ephemeral and extremely unreliable. We hasten to assure you that this is not so.

The builders themselves also say that the demand for them is quite real, but the trouble of our country is that the buyers here are not guided by personal experience, but rather rather strange stereotypes.

We tried to choose the most common myths, refuting them by the practice of domestic use. You will see that the frame house, the opinion about which should be based on its own opinion, is perfectly suitable for comfortable living within the whole country.

So, the first misconception is connected with the fact that our customers are skeptical about the ability of the frame house to keep warm in the frosty winters. Note that the standard thickness of its wall is 267 mm. This is enough to provide the same indicators of thermal insulation, which is characterized by a wall of foam concrete in 510 mm. Needless to say, such a frame house, reviews about which users have only positive, will perfectly protect you from frosts.

The second error is based on the opinion that the frame is not very strong. This can be true for cases where builders have greatly saved on materials, using a poor-quality and not dried wood.

Before you build a frame house, you need to worry in advance about buying a bar of proper quality. Ideally, it's best to buy glued material. From such a bar, overlapping of many pre-revolutionary houses was made. In the case of compliance with at least the basic rules of their operation, they are able to serve more than a dozen years.

In addition, frame houses are being built intensively even in seismic areas, where they have proved themselves well.

The most common myth is that a frame house (reviews with such comments are often found) can last no more than 20-30 years. This is fundamentally wrong, since even in the northern states of the United States there are ancient frame houses, which are already 90-100 years old.

In Finland (where the climate is more severe), the indices of their longevity are about the same. If you remember that in such a housing you can not do redevelopment with the transfer of partitions and allow the soaking of insulation, it will serve your grandchildren.

Finally, some suspicion among our citizens is caused by the high speed of erecting such a house. It is believed that fast is bad, but it is not. Efficiency in this case is due not to the negligent attitude of builders to their work, but to the fact that a ready-made assembly kit is brought to the site. It can be compared with a children's designer, also consisting of ready-made blocks.

Thus, frame houses (projects and prices you can study in construction companies) can become a true family nest. Considering that in most cases their cost does not exceed one million rubles (the cost of a square meter starts on average from 4000 thousand rubles), many can afford them.
