Building Materials and Construction Technology
Nix: I made a quick theoretical calculation and ended up with 0.40, which is quite low, considering that I have not accounted for leakage, thermal bridges, etc. So Kalle's 0.50-0.55 holds up well as a practically applicable value against that calculation.
richardw: I'm planning to build a larger deck and am wondering if it's possible to have a center-to-center distance between the deck posts of 2.2m to achieve a nice and even distribution. I'm building around a corner of the house. This way, I'll have 3 posts for the roof, which measures 5m in length, and then an additional 2 low posts for the sun deck. Does anyone have suggestions for center-to-center
Henke_P: http://www.traullit.se still manufactured, insulation ability about half of gullfiber. have 50mm boards on the inside of the concrete hollow block in our house from -52, then plaster on the inside of it. /Henrik
Hobbyfixarn: Hello, I need help finding out what rules apply to fire protection in garages and where to find the relevant standards. The garage will be a detached heated garage and will be about 3 meters from the residential building and connected with a cold storage room. It will be on a shared slab and the area of each part will be 28m[sup]2[/sup] and 10m[sup]2[/sup]. How thick does the gypsum wall need to
erikssonjorgen: Thank you for the super quick response ama and patrik_t!!!
erikssonjorgen: Thanks for the thoughts. I have now progressed to browsing a bit on the web. There is a company called Rydab. They seem to have quite nice sheets. Should get one for the top part in 1 1/2 stories. What do you think about sheet metal (again)? Jörgen
erikssonjorgen: Thank you! Makes sense. The old owner of the 70s house received a remark about this during the garage construction. Good to know. Jörgen
johawk3: Well, it was probably just for the house..... He also managed to find a cheap plot of land that he bought from a farmer. If I remember correctly, he paid just over 200,000 for 12,000 sqm.... The plot is in the countryside near Västerås. Guess if I'm envious ;D ;D
Sweli: [citat] There are! as I said in my post. These boards are imported by KARL LJUNGBERG & CO AB. You can buy them, for example, at Fredells and other building supply stores. We ordered them through our house supplier. It costs about 215 SEK/sqm. Our dormers are made of wood and we requested Masterfacade as cladding to be able to plaster directly on it or paint with something called "artist
MrMagic: If you are not charged with static electricity, that is....
gaia: Hydrochloric acid is not actually used for neutralization purposes. The hydrochloric acid dissolves the lime and removes the white lime film from the brick surface. It also dissolves the mortar. You should thoroughly wet the joints with water before you start brushing on the acid so the joints don't absorb too much of the acid. Afterwards, you should rinse thoroughly with water to remove remnants
Hobbit: Oops - I apparently forgot that there is an extra section "FÖNSTER" here So I'll move the question there.
General_Failure: [citat] Not sure if this solution is kosher, but you can let the plastic from the other areas overlap the moisture barrier by a few centimeters and then paint together the plastic and moisture barrier with moisture barrier.
MHelin: Hi CarlOscar! The relocation of a log house never became relevant because I actually happened to stumble upon my dream house - a heritage-listed large log house from the late 1700s with wedge-sawn floors in dinosaur size and a large lovely plot! The house requires a lot of renovation and maintenance but is fundamentally sound. So since November 16th, I am a proud building conservator... ;D Thank
znuggi: Is there any kind reader who has a house (or knows someone) with iron vitriol-treated larch cladding? If so, please feel free to send a direct message or reply to this thread. The house should preferably be located in Skåne / Alternatively many web images ;) We have probably decided on larch cladding but would love to see it installed (preferably aged)
betula: Check previous posts about asp http://www.byggahus.se/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=byggmatr;action=display;num=1073913275
ama: Silvan has some type of granite window sills for under 500 SEK each, the price depends on the length and other dimensions and type of stone (last time I checked, China white (black and white) was cheaper than New Africa (dark gray)). _If_ I remember correctly, the thickness is 20 mm. /ama
Ernst: Thank you for the great insights. In 2020, the limit value will also become 200 for existing houses. In Näsbypark, where we live, many houses were built in the 1950s and constructed with blåbetong. There is also ground radon in many houses. We are hesitant to buy a house with blåbetong ourselves, especially since we have children between 10 months and 7 years old. The house is charming but has
Fasting65: It is amazing fun that there are people who want to preserve these beautiful houses. I am absolutely sure that it will be incredibly beautiful once you have removed the mexitegel.
MrMagic: An oiled floor becomes harder on the surface, as the oil crystallizes in the pores and becomes hard, thereby making it more durable. I don't think you need to oil it that often afterwards...
JLT: There shouldn't be any problem with finishing the plastering on one side before the other is installed. It takes a lot of force for you to "damage" the plastering on the first side. ;D
Matti: there are a total of 5 categories (A1-A5) of steel, of which A3 is so-called stainless and A4 acid-resistant, acid-resistant is more resistant to corrosion and harder but at the same time more brittle, at least when heated...
tiggre: there is this that should "reflect" the heat, http://www.diamantborrarna.se/ThR/ThR7.html as for why there is aluminum foil on plasterboard? well... don't know, but I have a theory... plasterboard conducts heat poorly, maybe they thought that with the aluminum foil it would have a leveling effect? no idea... I'll ask the builder, convinced that he knows why
lastkaj: If the vapor barrier is leaky, moisture might be because of that. Unfortunately, there is probably no easy solution to your problem, a bad vapor barrier must be corrected, otherwise you'll have issues. Alternatively, you can ventilate a lot, but that won't be cheap :'(
Tommy_S: With tongue and groove there is minimal waste as well. Regardless, I think it's just a matter of nailing it on without splicing onto the stud.
