The gazebo is an integral part of landscape design in the country house and the plot of a private house. It's nice to hide from the heat during the day, and light the grill in the evening. Like many things in a private house, we build a gazebo with our own hands. First, decide what kind of gazebo you want to make.
What are the nuances to consider when building a gazebo yourself?
An open gazebo is a light structure with a canopy that will protect from the scorching sun. A semi-open gazebo has a wall on one or both sides. It can be sheltered from the rain. A closed gazebo is a capital building with glazed windows and insulated walls. Such a gazebo will completely protect you from bad weather.
What materials will the gazebo be made of? It is important not only to understand, but also to evaluate their value. For a roof, for example, you can consider it as one of the options and in advance. The NORMA-DON company offers a choice of several slate options.
Once you have made your decision, draw a drawing on paper and mark the dimensions on it.
Like the construction of any structure, the construction of a gazebo begins with a foundation. Given the small size and load, the foundation pillars can be buried no more than 30 cm. They can be laid out of brick or wooden posts can be installed.
For the base of the building, you can use a wooden beam, laying it around the perimeter on the foundation pillars.
Now you can start making the frame. These are four wooden vertical pillars fastened together from above and connected to the base.
The roof can be made of slate, shingles or profiled decking. On the website of the company NORMA-DON () customers will find the option that suits them
The floor is laid last. In a wooden structure, it would be appropriate to look at the floor from an ordinary board.
Duralight on LEDs is used to illuminate the gazebo and to decorate the facade. It can be either round or flat (2-wire, 3-wire). Duralight is characterized by low energy consumption, long service life and resistance to weather factors.
