Construction country house- this is a unique opportunity to create comfortable conditions outside the city, where you can not only have a good rest, but also settle permanently. At the same time, living conditions may be identical to city ones, and in some cases these conditions are not even close to the conditions in city apartments.

Among the huge number of proposals, the design of a house with an attic made of aerated concrete blocks occupies one of the leading positions. Many may ask, what does the gas block have to do with it?

The whole point is that this construction material has a lot of advantages over others wall materials. Namely:

• It's the perfect size, so... competent masonry will allow you to raise flat wall, which will not need to be leveled.
• Light weight, which reduces labor costs. Plus, it reduces pressure on the foundation of the house. And this, in turn, makes it possible to reduce its size, and therefore reduce the consumption of materials for its construction.
• Lack of fastening cement mortar. Gas silicate blocks are fastened together with a special adhesive composition.
• High thermal insulation qualities of the blocks, which makes it possible to reduce the thickness of the walls and not use insulation.
• Simplicity of the installation process.
• Aerated concrete blocks are easy to process. For example, you can cut them with a regular saw.

Manufacturing technology of gas blocks

The technology for manufacturing gas blocks is quite complex. First, sand, lime, aluminum powder and water are mixed into a single solution. During the mixing process, a chemical reaction occurs, which results in the release of gas.

When mixed, it is evenly distributed throughout the entire volume of the solution in the form of small bubbles.

Ultimately, a plastic mass is obtained, which is molded and the semi-finished blocks enter the autoclave, where, under the influence of high temperature and humidity, they are finally formed and receive the necessary strength.

There is a non-autoclave manufacturing method, where cement and gas-forming additives are used as raw materials. This solution is simply mixed, poured into molds and dried in the open air. Most often, such products are called foam blocks, not gas blocks.

Projects of houses with attics

Let's return to the main topic: projects of houses made of aerated concrete with an attic. Why are such projects popular today? It's all about the notorious savings. The construction boom has created all the conditions under which the one who offers an economical option will win. Judge for yourself.

That is, it turns out that house designs made from gas silicate blocks with an attic are a unique opportunity to save a lot of money on building your own house. But you also have to take into account the size of the house. After all, it may be too large, which will cost a lot of money.

But many country developers dream of cozy home. Therefore, there are several such projects that will satisfy many consumers.

For example, like the one shown in the photo above. Here is the layout of the first floor, where zoning is clearly defined. On this floor, separate rooms, which are most often used as bedrooms, are clearly demarcated from the so-called service area, where the kitchen and living room are located. They are separated by official and utility rooms, which is very important.

The plan of the second floor (attic) can be different, it all depends on the customer’s requirements. After all, most often the attic is used for personal spaces: bedrooms, playrooms for children, an office, nurseries. At the same time, it is easy to make distinctions in the attic, because it is, in fact, a single space without load-bearing structures. Therefore, using light partitions, you can organize a different number of rooms in this area, different sizes and even forms.

By the way, pay attention to the size of the house. 12x12 mm is one of the most popular indicators for country buildings with an attic. Such a house will roughly look like this (see photo below).

Increasingly, customers are placing demands on the designs of aerated concrete houses with an attic, in which they are asked to take into account additional office or residential premises. For example, a garage, or a veranda or terrace, attached as an integral part of the building. The requirements are relevant, because the same car today has become a functional, sought-after unit, like a cooking stove, a bed, a table, and so on. It is impossible to imagine life without him today.

Therefore, architects and designers offer enough big choice projects with attics, where both a garage and a veranda appear. Although it should be noted that garage projects are a separate category that must be dealt with separately. But let’s continue to consider projects of houses made of gas silicate blocks with an attic, into which a garage and a veranda are inserted. For example, here is this option.

I must say that such Vacation home not the smallest, but this photo clearly shows that this building has an attic, and next to it there is a garage, as an integral part of the building itself. Or this project with an attic, in which there is a veranda and a garage at the same time. That is, all the customer’s requirements were taken into account, while the house turned out to be compact, and the garage was built in the form of a canopy, but under the same roof as the houses. Although it should be noted that this aerated block house project can be improved, that is, the garage can be made closed.

Garage projects with an attic

Let's move on to other buildings, to other projects, namely to projects for an aerated concrete garage with an attic. Why is an attic needed in a garage building? Since we are talking about summer cottage, then, as mentioned above, savings when building a country house, first of all. Therefore, every centimeter on the site must be used rationally. There is no point in building it up, because nature is the most important thing outside the city, and why then move here?

Therefore, any building must be multifunctional. And the attic creates just such multifunctionality, so if you build it separately standing garage at the dacha, then only with an attic. Firstly, you can organize a good workshop, or a rest room, or a warehouse on it by installing shelves and cabinets. Moreover, if this happens non-residential premises, then its finishing can be approached with great savings.

Secondly, you can organize a gym in the attic by installing exercise equipment. By the way, many developers do this, especially when a country house becomes a place permanent residence. I insulated the attic, installed heating, and now the room above the garage for sports is ready. You open the windows and fresh air is inside.

Pace modern construction and the desire of customers to save money led to the need to create a material that would allow for quick delivery of an object at a relatively low cost. Aerated concrete is exactly such a material. Construction companies have in their arsenal many standard house designs that can satisfy the wishes of any customer. Projects of houses made of aerated concrete with an attic are especially popular, since the attic floor allows you to expand the living space of the cottage.

Features of aerated concrete blocks

The technology for manufacturing aerated concrete was invented at the beginning of the last century and has been constantly improved throughout its existence. Today, the following components are used to make blocks:

• cement;
• quartz sand;
• aluminum powder;
• lime;
• water.

Advantages of aerated concrete blocks:

• The aerated concrete block has a porous structure, making the material an excellent insulator. Laying a wall in 1-2 blocks effectively retains heat inside the house without installing an additional thermal insulation layer.
• Aerated concrete allows the walls to breathe, which creates a comfortable microclimate inside the room.
• The air pores inside make the material a good sound insulator. Walls made of aerated concrete blocks 30 cm thick can isolate a room from sounds with a frequency of up to 60 dB.
• The low weight of aerated concrete makes it possible to reduce the size of the foundation, which has a positive effect on the cost of its construction.
• The ideal sizes of the blocks allow you to lay out walls that do not require leveling with plaster.
• There is no need to use cement mortar - an adhesive composition is used for masonry.
• The material can be easily adjusted to required size using a regular saw.

The only drawback is the need to protect aerated concrete from moisture. To do this, light plaster is applied to the outer surface of the walls to prevent water from entering the blocks. Otherwise, the construction of a building is simpler than with brick - the large dimensions of the material allow the work to be completed 2 times faster.

Advantages of buildings made of aerated concrete

The popularity of house projects made from gas silicate blocks, which fall into the category of low-rise construction, far exceeds their analogues from traditional building materials. This is due to the advantages that aerated concrete provides:

• load-bearing structures are lightweight compared to brickwork or concrete slabs;
• at any stage construction work there is an opportunity to save significantly;
• an aerated concrete house has low thermal conductivity and is environmentally friendly;
• buildings made of gas silicate have high level fire safety;
• the material allows construction to be carried out in a short time, which does not affect the quality of the work done.

An important factor in choosing a material is its cost. The price of aerated concrete blocks remains the most affordable on the construction market. In addition, the weight of the blocks makes it easier to transport the material and its installation.

What are the benefits of an attic?

Houses with an attic allow more efficient use of the area of ​​the built-up site, due to which such buildings are becoming increasingly in demand:

• arrangement of the attic increases the usable area of ​​the house by 2 times;
• since the roof is insulated, this helps reduce heat loss from the house through the roof;
• additional living space can be arranged on the attic floor;
• all necessary communications to the attic can be carried out from the first floor of the building;
• The construction of a house from aerated concrete blocks with an attic allows you to save money on construction and installation work.

The disadvantages of such a house include the mandatory presence of windows in the attic, which necessitates additional costs for glazing. If the technology for insulating the under-roof space is violated, condensation may form and, as a result, freezing of the attic.

Where to get a project for a house made of aerated concrete with an attic

Construction of a house begins with a project. Besides technical documentation will be required upon approval by the authorities. If you have a project, it is easier to calculate the required amount of building materials, carry out the work in the correct sequence and think through many little details that will ensure the comfort of future residents.

Even if you plan to do the work yourself, a carefully drawn up plan will help prevent mistakes and unnecessary costs to correct them. There are several options for whom to entrust the drafting of the project:

1. Order from an office or company specializing in drafting projects. Calculations made by specialists will help you complete registration documents without any problems. The cost of a project for a house made of aerated concrete with an attic ranges from 30 to 35 thousand rubles.
2. Ready standard project - can be purchased from the same design companies. Some construction companies provide standard designs free of charge with the condition that you use their services to carry out construction work. If you do not plan to build a house yourself, then this is the most profitable option.
3. A budget option— involves searching for a ready-made aerated concrete house project in publicly available sources. You can take it as a basis and modify it according to your preferences, for example, adding a garage to the project of a house made of aerated concrete with an attic.

Choosing a standard project or an individual one is a matter of personal preference. An individual project will make the living conditions more comfortable, since all the wishes of the future residents of the house will be taken into account when drawing up. But it should be taken into account that drawing up such a project requires more time and its cost is much more expensive.

What should be displayed in the design of a house made of aerated concrete

The design of a house made of aerated concrete with an attic must contain a technical section that takes into account all the nuances that affect the quality of the structure:

1. Accurate calculation of the load on the first floor. If the calculations are made incorrectly, this will lead to cracks in the load-bearing walls, which can ultimately lead to the destruction of the building. If the attic is attached to an already ready home, then the project must provide for the strengthening of the walls.
2. In order for a person to move freely in the attic, the minimum ceiling height must be 2.5 m. This must be indicated in the house design.
3. Communications in the attic must be interconnected with the first floor.
4. The staircase is positioned in such a way as not to interfere with movement on the ground floor and to ensure convenient ascent and descent from the attic.
5. Often the attic is made into one room, but if there is a need to zone the room, then in order not to load the ceiling, it is better to use lightweight material for this purpose, for example, drywall.
6. It is imperative to provide a plan for possible evacuation from the attic in case of fire.
7. The design of a house made of aerated concrete must contain diagrams for laying water and sewerage, heating and electrical wiring.

To draw up a high-quality project for a house made of aerated concrete with an attic, specialists must have information about the level of groundwater, the nature of the soil and the climatic conditions in which the building will be located.

An example of a house project made of aerated concrete with an attic

The project of a house made of aerated concrete with a garage, with a total area of ​​112 m² and a living area of ​​50 m², has compact dimensions, thanks to which it can be built on a small plot. The area and layout of such a house allows you to comfortably accommodate a young family of 3 people.

The front entrance to the house is made in the form of a porch with a canopy. On the ground floor there is a garage, a vestibule with wardrobe, a hall with a staircase leading to the attic, a guest room, a kitchen-dining room and a bathroom. The kitchen has access to summer terrace, located in courtyard, allowing you to spend time outdoors out of reach of prying eyes. Household premises located nearby - this is very convenient when laying communications. The heating boiler is located in the kitchen. The garage has additional access to the courtyard.

The project provides for two identical bedrooms in the attic - for adults and a child, a wardrobe and an additional combined bathroom. For the convenience of communications, it is located directly above the first floor bathroom.

Advantages of aerated concrete houses with an attic

House designs made from aerated concrete are becoming widespread. This is explained by the advantages that this building material has. Aerated concrete blocks are made from quartz sand, Portland cement, aluminum powder, lime with the addition of water. Thanks to this composition, the material is obtained with a lot of advantageous qualities:

• light weight;
• excellent heat and sound insulation;
• resistance to sub-zero temperatures;
• ease of processing;
• resistance to rotting;
• non-flammability.

Due to its distinctive properties, aerated concrete is actively used in the construction of houses with attic floors and in low-rise construction. The material allows construction to be carried out at a rapid pace.

Houses made of aerated concrete do not require the construction of a solid foundation, because aerated concrete blocks are lightweight, so there is no heavy load on the house. The possibility of installing a budget foundation can significantly reduce costs.

What do we offer?

We offer a full range of services, from the proposal or development of a project taking into account personal preferences to the final internal and exterior finishing. Any project of a block house with an attic presented by us is suitable for construction in any cottage or dacha village near Moscow. During development finished projects Qualified architects of our company take into account all aspects of working with gas blocks, as well as the peculiarities of building attics. If you have any questions about cooperation, please contact our staff.

Modern technologies are focused on making materials as durable as possible and meeting all requirements for thermal conductivity, hardness, durability and moisture resistance. By reducing the specific gravity of products, manufacturers increase the size of the block, which helps reduce the time for building a house.

IN in this case We are talking about aerated concrete, which has all the above characteristics, as well as a perfectly flat surface on all sides. Finishing walls from this material is quite simple; even a novice master can complete the job in the shortest possible time.

If you decide to build a private house, then the density of aerated concrete should be D 500, and should be equivalent to 380 millimeters (if you do not plan to provide insulation). However, external finishing work will have to be carried out.

Construction of the foundation

Before you start building a residential building, you should definitely consider the designs of houses made of aerated concrete. They will describe everything down to the smallest detail, including the type of foundation. The type of foundation must be chosen depending on many factors and aspects, among which soil can be distinguished.

Aerated concrete is a fairly lightweight material, so you can save on building a heavy foundation. You can refuse heavy buried strip foundation or a pile foundation, using since the load-bearing slab has a huge supporting area and will be able to endure structural loads. There will be no need to deepen it, which will reduce the labor intensity and volume of excavation work.

Conclusion

If you are interested inexpensive houses from aerated concrete, prices for which can vary from 10,000 to 13,000 rubles per square meter, then you can ask which companies on modern market are constructing similar buildings. If you decide to do the work yourself, then after assembling the frame you need to begin installing the rafters. For this purpose, the beam is cut to the required length, and a groove is cut at the base for installation on the Mauerlat. The next step is to fix the upper rafters; the difficulty lies in the need to maintain a certain angle.

As you can see, you can easily build a house with an attic made of aerated concrete yourself.

Houses with an attic have been popular at all times. And this is due to a number of reasons:

Firstly, the complex pattern of a pitched roof looks from an architectural point of view much more interesting than a flat or even hip roof. The invention of François Mansart, who in time immemorial, with the blessing of Louis XIV, was the first to decide to arrange housing for the poorest segments of the population in attics, still gives the house a European charm.

Secondly, the attic will cost less to build than full floor. Since the walls and ceiling are the roof slopes, there is no need to build these walls, and this will seriously save money on materials.

Third, the absolute advantage is the abundance planning decisions, which opens up to the owners the unconventional geometry of walls and ceilings. The attic can be considered as a single space, for example, a studio or workshop, or can be divided into several rooms. This will allow you to plan unique interior taking into account all the features of the premises, fit into them designer furniture and, ultimately, create an individual image of your home.

Technical features of houses with an attic

• The need for additional thermal insulation to avoid heat loss in residential areas.
• Individual ventilation and heating system.
• Installation of special roof windows, more expensive than ordinary ones.

In addition, it must be taken into account that with a large slope of the roof slopes, lowering the ceiling height may be inconvenient for tall people.

Project characteristics

As a rule, attics become the favorite place of the inhabitants of the house, especially for children. The unusual configuration and abundance of light make these rooms especially attractive and cozy.

Our website presents various options use of attic floors.

First of all, you should decide on the area future construction. And the choice is quite wide - from 65 m2 to 750 m2. To begin with, it is enough to indicate the requirements for the attic floor - what would you like: to get a single studio space? or should the volume consist of several rooms, being a children's or sleeping area?..

• A compact building with a vertical composition, economically using space for construction, 2-3 floors. For example, options that are economical in all respects:, or the bright, stylish “Optima” in various modifications.
• Or one-story building- or cozy, Scandinavian fairy-tale style.

When choosing, also pay attention to the planning drawings, the price of the project and the appearance of the facades.

A variety of filters, combined with the experience of professional architects, will help you choose a project that takes into account everything specifications site and your individual requirements. It is also possible to make changes to the documentation at your request.
