Modern economic conditions are often confusing for those wishing to acquire their own square meters: the cost of apartments in new buildings in most cases is similar to the cost of individual small houses. Of course, not everyone wants to get involved with individual construction, but those who decide on this step will definitely never regret their deeds.
Optimal solution
For those who want to save both money and space on the site, there is a decent option - a 6 by 6 house, a two-story building. Its layout can be performed as efficiently as possible, because there will be enough space for living.
These sizes are not taken from the ceiling: it is precisely these parameters that can create an optimal and sufficient area for an average family to live. If the internal layout of the premises is carried out efficiently, the usable space can be fully utilized - up to 70 m 2 . At the same time, a 6-by-6 house with two floors, the layout of which takes into account the entire internal territory, can accommodate a larger number of rooms than a city apartment of the same area.
What to build from?
For the construction of the house, any modern building material can be used: foam concrete block (gas block), timber, log, frame system with filling sandwich panels. The choice depends on the personal preferences and financial capabilities of the developer.
In addition to wishes, the choice of material is influenced by the purpose of the house. If it is not intended for year-round use (cottage), massive wall constructions aimed at preserving heat should not be used, and, conversely, for permanent residence provide heating devices, appropriate communication systems. From any material listed above, you can build both a summer and a capital house. Next, consider the pros and cons of popular options.
Stone castle
The most common material for building a house is lightweight concrete in the form of gas and foam blocks. Not surprising, because it is durable, extremely safe and efficient in operation:
- high sound insulation;
- thermal insulation;
- material is not subject to burning;
- resistant to temperature extremes.
In addition, its installation is a quick and relatively economical business. House 6 to 6 is a two-story building, the layout of the foam blocks of which is quite simple, is being built in a short period of time - from 2 weeks to a month. Such material allows you to create and equip your corner in the shortest possible time.
The pluses can also include an economical foundation: for a small house there is no need to install a massive base, a sufficiently shallow tape. This is quickly mounted, requires minimal material costs, quickly becomes suitable for further construction based on it.
The disadvantages include the need to finish all walls without exception: bare concrete looks unpresentable. On this, the shortcomings, perhaps, end.
Block house 6 to 6 two-story, the layout of which is made by a professional engineer, is shown in the photo below.
As you can see, the space is involved very efficiently.
Give a choice of natural materials!
Wood is the most environmentally friendly raw material for the construction of residential buildings: it is completely natural, does not create uncomfortable living conditions, does not emit hazardous substances. Its weaknesses are low resistance to burning and decay, as well as the effects of parasites and microorganisms. However, these problems are minimized thanks to modern processing technologies: impregnation with chemical compounds, industrial drying, installation features.
Wooden materials are divided into several groups:
- logs rounded;
- glued / solid beam;
- components of sandwich panels.
The most common and popular is a wooden house 6 to 6 two-story. The layout of the timber is economical in terms of financial costs and installation. The construction of the building is quick and easy thanks to the tongue-and-groove system of connecting fragments.
The foundation for such a structure can be used the cheapest - columnar or pile-screw, since the weight of the house is small, and a capital base is not required.
How to make a compact layout
Creating a project is an important stage of work that determines the entire construction process. Entrusting it to professionals or doing it yourself is everyone's choice. Of course, architects will complete the task as quickly and efficiently as possible, but it costs money. For those who want to save money, consider the way to create a 6 by 6 two-story house, the layout of which will be compact.
- On a sheet of paper, create a drawing scheme in compliance with the proportions for ease of measurement. First of all, designate the perimeter, the location of the roads.
- Decide on the desired number of rooms. To save space, you can combine the kitchen with the living room, the bathroom with the toilet, the pantries can either be moved to the street, or their area can be minimized.
- Indicate the location of the rooms in accordance with the proportions, indicate their sizes.
- Define the design and configuration of the roof, the location of the doors and windows.
What is primarily taken into account when a 6-storey 6-storey house is being built? Layout. The photo below clearly shows one of the optimal construction options (the lower tier is increased).
These schemes may well fit as working materials for the construction team. But for the documentary registration of the house, you still have to draw up the project with dignity.
As you can see, it’s not difficult to create a 6 by 6 two-story house. The layout of the blocks or tree should take into account the internal space so that it is not wasted.
How much is?
Since we are talking about saving, we need to highlight the financial side of the issue. A turnkey small house from timber can be put on average for 400-500 thousand rubles. It all depends on the layout, wall thickness and other options. A block cottage 6x6 meters will cost 1-1.5 million rubles. Obviously, these prices for residential premises with an area of 65-70 m 2 are significantly lower than the cost of the same spaces in multi-unit residential buildings. Of course, the purchase of a land plot is not taken into account here. But if you look, the total costs for your corner, separate or in a residential complex, are about the same. Therefore, to each - his own.
