Raming by imitation of the beam

Finishing materials there are a great many. Panels, lining, wallpaper, etc. D. We will consider with you how to finish your home with imitation of a beam. How to choose and calculate the material so that your hopes are justified, and the money was not spent in vain.

The sequence of work.

No matter what material your house is built, it is impossible to carry out interior decoration immediately after its construction. The house should be shrinkable. The exception to this rule is frame houses.

So:

• Prepare the base.

• Remove the surface size for cladding.

• Choose a rock of wood from which an imitation of timber is made.

• We calculate the amount of material that we need. Here you need to include not only imitation, but also material for the crate, as well as fasteners.

• installation of the crate

• Installation of imitation

• I simulate imitation with a protective composition.

Consider each item.

Preparation of the base is carried out in two ways:

1) align the walls.

2) we compensate for irregularities due to the design of the crate.

Measure the facing surface and buy the material. If with wood varieties more and less everything is clear; The material of varieties A, B, AB, and «Extra» are selected — it all depends on your wallet, then the size of the board and wood breed raises questions. Let’s figure it out. Buy a board 100-150 mm wide. Board with a smaller width similar as a pine lining. Width of more than 150 mm «eats» space. But the thickness of the board should be at least 21 mm.

The choice of breed depends on which room you want to finish imitation of the beam. If the room is not heated, feel free to choose any tree breed. The main thing is to then treat it with an antiseptic composition.

But in the house in which you will live, you need to take into account the overall design of the room and choose the wood breed by texture and drawing suitable for you by design. Not unimportant fact: you will choose deciduous wood species or coniferous. Little rocks are neutral by smell. Coniferous, when heated, not only the smell, but also the resin. This may not please everyone. Also, rocks made of deciduous trees are less prone to such trouble as cracking than coniferous. All these qualities are taken into account in price categories.

A separate question is the question — bathhouse.

Lipa is best suited for decoration. Coniferous varieties do not follow. Such a board emits the resin when heated. It must also be remembered that the bathhouse must be processed with a composition that protects the imitation from the formation of the fungus.

The choice of the frame will not complicate you. There are two options: galvanized profile and wooden bars.

Profile advantage — it is universal. But the wooden frame is not recommended in wet rooms.

How to calculate the crate? It is not difficult to calculate: the bar of the crate is 600-800mm.

Installation of the crate.

I must say right away that this type of work will “steal” part of the space.

It is not difficult to fix the crate. If your house is built of a beam or USB, then screws and nails are suitable. Used for the construction of gas — or foam concrete, you will need a dowel with pikes. If your walls are perfectly smooth, then the crate can be excluded. But do not forget, the crate is good in that: thanks to it you can make your communications invisible and significantly insulate your house.

Collection of imitation.

The fastening is carried out in several ways: Klyammers, nails or self -tapping screws. Mounting methods: in the front of the board, in the groove or into the spike.

Klyammers are not recommended to be used in the fastening of ceiling elements of the finish. There is no confidence that the board will hold.

Painting.

Painting can be carried out immediately after assembly or after some time. In warm rooms, it is better to do painting in a couple of months. During this time, the imitation of the beam will shrink and give microcracks that you can easily hide painting.

It is desirable to paint the non -heated rooms immediately. It will protect the tree from dampness. The ceiling imitation of the beam is more convenient to paint until it is mounted. Different decorative elements are used to finish corners.

Imitation of the timber, as a finish inside the house — the question is controversial. Someone likes to live in a house «under a tree». But, it is impossible to deny its environmental friendliness and ease of installation.
