The shed of your garden. Tips for the home master

Builder, home master

The mini-house, which we will tell you about now, fits perfectly in any garden plot. If necessary, it can become the main or temporary shelter for you and your family (in case you are building another large house). It is also suitable as a pantry for storing carpentry and metalwork tools, garden accessories. The construction of the "hut" will take a total of several days - of course, if all the materials for its construction are at hand.

Foundation

Under this small wooden house, an area of \u2b\u2bonly XNUMXxXNUMX m is required. The foundation (foundation) for it is laid out of concrete and stones laid on a leveled surface.

The height of the foundation from ground level is 0,3 m. First, a frame of two-meter boards is installed on the prepared site, the upper plane of which must be strictly horizontal. From the sides, the frame on the site is reinforced with stones and battens. Formwork for the porch is attached to it. Stones or old bricks (for example, from some destroyed building) are laid at the base of the foundation, and it is desirable to place the largest of them on the sides. The space between them is filled with cement mortar, which then forms the entire horizontal plane of the base.

It is better to lay out the porch from natural stone of a rectangular shape, filling the gaps with cement mortar.

Frame "hut"

The house itself is made of bars and boards. If the "hut" will be used as a temporary or as a pantry, the dimensions of the door, its shape will have to be changed. In this case, the doorway can be placed in the side extension (the height of which should be increased), and the window opening can be made on the front or rear facade.

While the concrete is setting (several days), start making the wooden frame of the house and the extension. On the south side of the "hut" there is a door, on the east - an extension and a window opening. The sides of the house ("overhangs") protrude beyond the base of the house by 0,4 m on both sides.

The main frame of the "hut" and the frame of the extension are assembled from bars with a section of 50x70 mm. Please note that if in the figure there is a size of 70x50 near the bar, this means that the 70 mm side is "looking" at us; in the same figures where the size 50x70 is indicated, the 50-mm side is "looking" at us.

Frame bars are connected to each other with screws and nails. The "thorn" connection (as well as the tie-in) is used only when they are connected to the base frame. The latter is buried in the concrete of the foundation. The frame bars are connected to each other with screws. Nails are driven into the sidewalls of the bars (approximately every 0,5 m): thanks to them, the frame buried in concrete will more firmly bond with the foundation. The two side frames are connected to each other with a 50x100 mm steel plate on the roof ridge.

The sidewalls and the extension are connected to each other (in addition to the tie on the roof ridge) also with three bars.

Wooden sheathing "hut"

The frame of the house outside and inside is sheathed with boards. The floor is also made of boards nailed to the joists. From the inside, the house is best sewn up with clapboard, chipboard or fiberboard or plywood. The gaps in the door and window openings are also sealed with boards cut at the joints at an angle of 45 °.

The front facade of the house (south side with a door), an extension with a window and the rear facade have the same sheathing - overlapping boards overlapping each other by about 20 mm.

The sides (which are also the roof), as well as the roof of the extension, have the same sheathing. It can be PVC tiles, usually used for flooring (with or without a pattern); plates cut from linoleum (baseless), or, finally, roofing felt. The sheathing that protects from rain should be glued, and its edges should be attached with slats and nails. The facades of the house and extensions will thus not only be reliably protected from the weather, but will also look beautiful.

The roof ridge should be closed with a bent corner of aluminum or galvanized steel strip.

Before starting construction, the frame slats must be impregnated with the Senezh composition. Interior trim boards are best washed and varnished. In the case of using plywood, chipboard or fiberboard, the walls should be covered with paint. Outside, the sheathing of the "hut" is covered with stain, drying oil (in two steps) and oil paint or varnish.

From the outside, it is desirable to close the window of the house with shutters that lock from the inside. The window block is outlined with carved platbands.

High-speed optical communication Li-Fi 15.06.2013

Li-Fi, short for Light Fidelity, is an optical wireless technology developed and presented by Harald Haas at the 2011 TED Talk. The French company Oledcomm announced that the first communication devices of its production, based on Li-Fi technology, will be available on the market next year.

Li-Fi technology works by binary modulating light from a special LED source. Modulation is carried out at a high frequency, and the transceiver itself in appearance is no different from an ordinary LED light bulb for household lighting.

Receiving sensors connected to computers or other digital electronic devices allow you to receive information when they are exposed to direct light from a Li-Fi source. This imposes some restrictions on the use of this technology, but in the end, such optical communication is somewhat safer than traditional Wi-Fi, the signals of which can be intercepted from anywhere within the range of the equipment. In order to intercept information transmitted via Li-Fi, an attacker will need to place his spy equipment literally on your lap, which can lead to serious difficulties for him.

In addition to the above, Li-Fi optical wireless technology can be used without restriction in places where the use of equipment that emits extraneous radio waves that may interfere with the normal operation of critical equipment is prohibited. Such places, of course, include intensive care wards of medical institutions, aircraft cabins and some other places.

At present, the information transfer rate that Li-Fi technology can provide is slightly higher than the speed of traditional Wi-Fi. Oledcomm representatives report that they have managed to obtain a stable information transfer rate of about 3 Gb / s, and a transfer rate of 10 Gb / s will be achieved in the very near future.
