As many people know, sandwich panels allow you to make construction more effective and make the decoration of buildings more economical. In addition, their environmental friendliness, functionality and quality are successfully correlated with their affordable cost.

The assembly of SIP panels takes a relatively short time, while construction using traditional materials may noticeably delay. In the use of sandwich panels are convenient in that their thermal insulation, thanks to a special insulation, reaches a high level. Such frame technologies are attractive in that with their help you can build not only a residential building, but also quickly build out household buildings, such as sheds.
The start of the construction of economic construction.
In order to build a shed from sandwich panels, you must first take care of the foundation. This problem, which needs to be solved in the first place, since, depending on the type of soil, the economic building can give a different load. Of course, the load created by the structure from SIP panels will be very small, but it is still necessary to make sure that it stood as it should, for many years. You can organize a small embankment towering a couple of tens of centimeters above the ground, and install a plate on it, which will turn into the floor in the future.
This method provides dryness and heat in the future building and saves it from animals that can harm objects stored in the barn, for example, various rodents. Before creating the embankment, it is necessary to make a hole about half a meter deep, and as a material for creating a “pillow” you can use both ordinary soil and mixed sand and gravel. After that, it is necessary to protect the foundation by formwork and carry out the reinforcement procedure. Next, fill the foundation with a cement mixture, which may not be very strong.
As soon as the foundation is ready, you can proceed to the installation of the frame of the future barn. The supporting structure will attach a sandwich panel, using self-tapping screws, which should be sufficient length. It is very important to screw screws under strict 90-degree corners. The panels are mounted from one corner, and the elements of the frame and panels must use the sealing tape. The panels must be tightly connected, for which it is possible to use special silicone sealants. In exactly the same way, starting from the corners, it is necessary to fasten structures to the roof. If you make sure that the SIP panels do not scratch during construction and do not muck, then you can assure the construction of the barn as fast as possible, which will simultaneously affect its status.
