Steps to build a house
One of the wonderful things in American homes is that the vast majority of them are built with completely standardized building practices. One reason for this consistency is a set of uniform building codes, which apply throughout the country. Another reason is the cost - the techniques used to build homes produce reliable houses quickly at low cost (relatively speaking). If you ever see any house under construction, is passing through the following steps:
Grading and site preparation
Building the Foundation
Framing
The installation of windows and doors
Cover
Siding
Rough Electrical
Rough
Rough HVAC
Isolation
Drywall
Underlay
Garnish
Painting
Finish electrical
Bathroom and kitchen counters and cabinets
Finish HVAC
Carpets and floor coverings
Finish HVAC
Connection to water main, or well drilling
Taking into sewers or the installation of a septic system
Punch list
Many of these steps are performed by independent teams, known as sub-contractors. For example, coaching is usually performed by a subcontractor specializing in framing, while the roof is made by a contractor specializing in different roofing. Each subcontractor is an independent company. All subcontractors are coordinated by a contractor who supervises the work and is responsible for the completion of the house on time and on budget.
We will review these various stages, so you can see what is involved, to understand all the steps and know the different building materials. We use a typical three-bedroom house in such a film.
Land Development
The first crew on the site handles site preparation. Often, this core team and the team are the same people, but sometimes (especially if there are many trees in the ground). The houses are usually built on a base that can be a basement, basement or slab. The crew of the site preparation that usually occur at the site with a backhoe and / or bulldozer. The team is to clean the place of all trees, rocks and debris on the site if needed and as needed to dig the foundations are being built.
For example, the image of the house was built in floor space. In order for the depopulation, the site preparation crew digs a series of trenches and holes. Concrete is poured into these trenches and holes, and serves as an interface to the foundation wall and the ground. When the concrete is poured, the house looks like this:
(In these pictures, floor tiles space has already been moved into place when the cement dries). Concrete trench is usually about 18-24 cm wide (45.72 to 60.96 cm) and 18-24 cm deep. When it hardens, it forms a massive concrete "beam", in which case the house rests. Width of concrete beam is controlled by the compressibility of the soil. The light beam is wider plot to try to spread the load, while the heavy clay soils may be more narrow.
If the site slopes, the concrete must be added to the bar, like this:
Concrete takes approximately four weeks to heal to full power (weather permitting), so when the concrete is poured something happens in a period of time while the initial curing takes place.
If this house was built on a basement, the site-prep crew would have dug a square hole about 8 feet deep. If this house was built on a plateau, the site preparation crew would have bitten off by about 2 feet deep and then completely razed the area to the filling..
