Drovyanik: appointment and varieties (23 photos)

Firewood is used in everyday life in order to heat a house, a bathhouse or to make a fire for cooking any food. To provide themselves with such benefits on an ongoing basis, people try to stock up as much wood as possible, and then store it in a place where there is no moisture. Drovyanik is a special room where firewood is stored for their long-term storage.

Storage of wood must be carried out in a room that is well ventilated and has a roof (necessary to ensure dryness). The correct location of the woodcutter will create a visible order in your area. There is no need to hire workers, as well as purchase materials to build a woodcutter in the country. It is much easier and more profitable to build a woodcutter with your own hands than to make a barn or build a house.

In the process of building a woodcutter, heterogeneous materials are used:

• brick;
• wooden beam;
• metal parts;
• lags.

As roofing materials used are used when creating the roof of a private house. The first step is to determine in what specific place the future woodcutter will be located and understand what materials will be used.

It is necessary to choose materials and design, based on the location of the building, the size of the house, the visual design of the site and its arrangement, the solvency of the owner of the building, which should appear.

Some people simply create a normal room, using improvised tools, the appearance of the structure is not given much importance. However, we believe that if a person decided to build a woodcutter in his country house with his own hands, then he must do it in a quality and tasteful way! A neatly made building can perfectly complement your "country picture" with a beautiful large house, a verdant garden, flower beds of several types of flowers and a bathhouse, in a cozy atmosphere of which people prefer to spend their leisure time.

Place for future building

Before you make a woodcutter, you must first determine its future location. If there is a fireplace or stove in the house, then it would be most advisable to build a woodcutter near the house. It is also important to consider the place for the transport entrance, through which all the necessary raw materials will be delivered.

If there is no need for firewood that will heat the house, then it is better to install a structure of pallets or logs near the bathhouse (if there is one) or near a “barbecue” place.

After that, you have to create a drawing. It is necessary for careful reproduction on paper of the plan of the location of the future building, as well as its exact size. According to the drawing, it will immediately become clear what the woodcutter will look like when built. At the time of construction, you will have to use a drill, twine, hammer, stepladder. Building materials are also bought.

Foundation creation

First you need to decide on what basis the foundation will be created. Foundation columns are created using concrete, ordinary brick, and stones. The base is installed on these columns, after which it is leveled at a certain level. The depth of the foundation is usually 30-60 centimeters.

Sometimes lags are laid under the base, which have a height of 10-15 centimeters from the place of laying the soil. Such a system prevents dampness in the room. Wooden boards are laid already on top of the lag, which are set in the right row.

So that the structure retains its quality for many years and is not covered with fungi, its base is impregnated with special compounds. Logs and wooden boards are also covered with special chemical compounds that differ in the properties of the fire type.

How to equip the roof of the woodburner?

4 layers of wood are fixed on special beams. Some people try to reduce their cash costs by using beams that have not been processed using special formulations. However, we would not recommend saving on such things. To ensure greater reliability, additional beams are installed on both sides. The sheets themselves are laid out over the beam reinforcements so that the main edges are in the central part of the installation width.

One layer of wood is adjusted to another, and then nailed with construction nails. If there is a discrepancy between the size of the formation and the size of the beam, an additional beam is usually laid, and then a wooden sheet is attached to it. It is necessary to make a canvas deck on the roof to prevent moisture and precipitation from entering the interior of the room. When buying tarps, it’s important not to forget that you need to cover the whole area. The most important thing is that a shortage of several millimeters or centimeters is not detected during construction.

Before trimming, a wood sheet is applied to the surface of the beam, and when the required size becomes known, all unnecessary is removed. The roof is tilted to the rear end of the building so that moisture drops flow from the roof. Another important advantage is the installation of water flow. In normal cases, the water flow from the drain chute is directed to plants that love moisture, which are located nearby.

What should the floor look like in the structure?

The assumption that the floor in a similar design may be absent is erroneous. The main function of a wood burning man is to store wood for a long time in a ventilated room with no moisture. In the absence of sex, all the moisture collected begins to have a detrimental effect on the wood, causing them to rot. It is necessary that the distance between the 1st layer of logs and the surface of the earth is at least 10 centimeters. Waterproofing under the lags themselves must be taken into account.

There is a classification of woodblocks depending on different characteristics:

• mounted;
• by type of shed;
• from logs;
• from pallets;
• based on a barrel;
• forged wood burning machine;
• woodcutter with a frame;
• open firewood.

An open firewood is quite simple to create, and the result should be a very neatly folded structure. Materials are used in the form of boards, simple bricks and beams. The building is usually attached to the house itself. A canopy or roof will not have to be installed. If the structure is located on the surface of the terrace, then an auxiliary base is not required.

It is recommended to erect firewood on the side of the building where there is natural ventilation and where there is a large amount of sun light. Between the woodcutter and the vertical surface of your home you need to leave a small gap, which will prevent the penetration of moisture.

Using a canopy

This type of woodcutter has only 3 walls. On 2 large walls of the lateral type, a roof of a 1-pitched or 2-pitched sample is installed. The crate in this case is replaced by plywood, and there are no rafters. The canopy is usually wider than the structure of the structure. The most suitable option for wood masonry is the use of two rows for convenient selection of objects from different sides.

There is also another type of woodcutter in the form of a canopy. He has as many as three walls. The roof is supported on 2 walls of the lateral type. This is a light type of roof, which is typical for residential buildings. The design involves the use of rafters, as well as plywood, which replaces the crate. Used corrugated boards, as well as tiles.

Barn type

The woodcutter of this variety in appearance resembles a small-sized house, equipped with a ventilation window and a doorway. It is built like an ordinary barn, however, its size is much smaller. The structure has no through holes on either of the 4 sides, which is why water resistance under the roof itself is taken into account.

The benefit of such a structure is that it has an auxiliary room where tools can be stored, as well as appliances used in everyday life.

Barrel Based

An old simple barrel is used as a mobile container where firewood is stored. An iron hoop is placed in the middle part of the barrel itself, and then a container of a certain size is cut using a jigsaw.

The design is equipped with carved legs. Small cuttings are inserted into specially created holes. A similar type of woodcutter is used to store a small number of objects.
