Advantages of wooden buildings
Projects of houses with an attic and a terrace assume the use of the first and second level for a variety of purposes.
Frame houses made of beams with an attic have such advantages:
1. Projects of country houses assume the use of only environmentally friendly materials that are safe for humans and the environment. Wooden walls are maintained in rooms with optimum humidity, which eliminates the appearance of fungus and mold.
2. Prefabricated houses are ready for occupancy immediately after completion of construction. They practically do not shrink.
3. If the construction of houses with an attic is complied with, all the rules of construction technology are observed, then the building can stand more than 100 years.
4. The project of the house 6х9 from a bar is calculated on the fact that the construction will be carried out practically without waste, since the standard length of the bar is 6 m.
5. High speed of erection. The house made of 6x8 bar can be installed on a light strip foundation, which settles down within 2-3 days. In the construction of a 6x8 wooden house with a mansard, cement mortars and plaster are not used, which takes time to solidify.
6. Significant savings on insulation and finishing. Wood has a low thermal conductivity and high aesthetic qualities. All you need to do is cover the walls with lacquer to emphasize the natural beauty of the tree and protect it from moisture.
7. Affordable cost. Lumber can be purchased at a sawmill almost anywhere in the country. In the steppe region it is delivered by rail. This kind of transportation is the cheapest of all.
The project of a cottage 6x8 with an attic is designed for a family with a population of up to 5 people at any time of the year.

Materials used
In the construction of houses with an attic, various materials for the erection of walls can be used. It is this building element that determines its performance characteristics. The beam can be made of pine, cedar and larch.
Pine has a small specific weight and good thermal insulation qualities. The price of this wood is the smallest. Pine beam is quite soft. It gives a strong shrinkage after laying. You can use this house only one year after construction. In addition, the beam of pine is very cracked. This wood is unstable to mold.
Cedar and larch are more expensive material. The timber from this wood is resistant to pressure and mold. High density of wood eliminates strong shrinkage and the appearance of cracks. But this factor reduces the heat-insulating qualities of the walls from cedar and larch timber.
Projects of houses are designed to use this type of building material:
1. Massive timber. Made from solid wood trunk. Has smooth surfaces, square or rectangular section.
2. Profiled beam. It is made from a well-dried massive timber. The side walls are smooth. On the upper and lower sides has protrusions and recesses, due to which the connection becomes durable and hermetic.
3. Glued beams. It is a few boards, glued together under great pressure. The boards are laid with fibers in different directions. This prevents the curvature of the crowns in the masonry. Glued products do not shrink and do not crack.
4. SIP panel. This is a multi-layer product consisting of oriented chipboards and a thermal insulation material between them. They are used for construction of frame buildings. They have high strength and good thermal insulation qualities.
For the construction of a cottage with a loft can use any of these materials. The choice depends on the taste and financial possibilities of the owner of the land plot.

The layout of the wooden house
The design of the cottage can be performed on paper or use a computer.
Projects of houses made of wood contain such data:
1. The foundation. Of reinforced concrete, a strip, slab or columnar foundation is arranged. On an unstable ground, screw piles can be used.
2. Projection of the first floor. At this level, it is advisable to equip the living room, hall, bathroom, kitchen and rest room. All rooms, where it is planned to supply water and drainage, it is better to combine in one place to save on communications. Some of the plans for the first floor include the allocation of its part to a small bath. Such a decision will entail additional measures for waterproofing the walls.
3. Drawing of the attic. Since the attic is a modernized attic, it is necessary to specify the scheme of the rafters. Due to the slope of the roof this level will have a smaller area than the first floor.
The advantage of such houses is the speed of construction if you trust it to build a solid company.

On the second floor you can equip such premises:
- living rooms;
- combined bathroom;
- gym;
- workshop;
- warehouse of various property;
- study;
- children's Corner;
- balcony or loggia.
The attic needs thermal insulation. To do this, you can use polyurethane foam, eco-wool or basalt cotton wool. As a skeleton for a heater the system of rafters is used. After laying the insulation rafters are covered with plywood, plasterboard or OSB.
Without fail, the design documentation indicates all communications. For water and sewage it is better to use polypropylene pipes. They have flexibility and sufficient strength. The electrical wires should be laid in plastic corrugated tubes. Such a measure will prevent fire of the tree in the event of a short circuit or cable overheating.
Expand the living space with a veranda attached to the house. It can be equipped with removable windows. In this case, there will be no need to erect a separate gazebo.
