These are just some of the features that can be incorporated for cottage homes to help you customize your space and create a cozy and timeless feel.

Types of Cottage House Plans

Cottage houses are versatile and can be used in a variety of ways and settings. From a vacation home on a lake or mountain to a cottage on the beach, your cottage home plan can fit the specific location and purpose of your home.

Cottage homes are typically two stories, with bedrooms on the upper level, though some may be one or one and a half stories in a more bungalow-style fashion. Some may have whimsical exterior features to enhance the "storybook" feel of the home. Others may have a more modern design with a unique shape. While cottages were associated with more rural locations in the past, modern designs make them a great choice for almost any location.

Cottage House Plans

A Cottage is, typically, a small house. The word comes from England where it originally was a house that has a ground floor, with a first, lower story of bedrooms which fit within the roof space.

“Montana” a Mark Stewart Small Cottage House Plan

In many places the word cottage is used to mean a small old-fashioned house.

In modern usage, a cottage is usually a modest, often cozy dwelling, typically in a rural or semi-rural location.  In the United States the word cottage is often used to mean a small holiday home. However there are Cottage House Plans in cities, and in places such as Canada the term generally exists with no connotations of size at all.

Reinforced concrete house | Construction of turnkey houses

Reinforced concrete house - what is it?

Reinforced concrete is a building material consisting of reinforcement (usually steel or plastic) and concrete. A house made of reinforced concrete is strong, durable and is not afraid of moisture and temperature changes. The service life of a reinforced concrete house is more than 130 years.

A reinforced concrete house, like other building materials, requires insulation, which can be installed at the stage of manufacturing panels (for a reinforced concrete panel house) or after the assembly of the main structure is completed (for a cast-in-place brick house). nine0005

Types of reinforced concrete houses

Let's look at the main types of reinforced concrete private houses. By design, a reinforced concrete house can be:

Reinforced concrete panel house

Reinforced concrete panel house is a prefabricated reinforced concrete house in which the unit of construction is a reinforced concrete panel.

A house made of reinforced concrete panels is usually a self-supporting structure, that is, it does not have a frame, and the load is distributed by the wall panels and floor slabs themselves. In a house made of reinforced concrete panels, floor slabs can be solid, hollow or ribbed. Wall panels in a panel house can be solid, ribbed or three-layer. nine0005

What is a “reinforced concrete slab house”? Is this the correct name?

The name "reinforced concrete slab house" is used to designate a reinforced concrete panel house, although formally it is not quite correct. The term "slab" itself is usually used to refer to a floor slab laid horizontally and separating one floor from another, and the term "reinforced concrete panel" refers to a vertically placed wall panel, so most often such houses are still called "panel houses". nine0005

Monolithic reinforced concrete house

Monolithic reinforced concrete house by design is a reinforced concrete frame of the house, made directly at the construction site by pouring concrete into the formwork. Reinforced concrete floors in such a house are most often part of a monolithic structure, but can also be made of precast concrete.

Reinforced concrete foundation for a private house

For a reinforced concrete house, a reinforced concrete foundation is usually used, designed for the load of a particular building. One example of the use of such a foundation is a house on reinforced concrete piles buried in the ground to a depth calculated based on the weight of the structure and the type of soil (bored or driven). The reinforced concrete foundation for a private house can also be tape and monolithic. nine0005

Reinforced concrete piles for a private house

Reinforced concrete piles for a private house are driven and bored. Bored reinforced concrete piles are used on dense natural soils. Driven reinforced concrete piles are distinguished by a high cost; they are used when it is impossible to install bored piles due to poor bearing capacity of the soil or low temperatures in winter. Driven piles are also used in the construction of high-rise buildings, as they have a greater bearing capacity. nine0005

Construction of reinforced concrete houses. Who builds reinforced concrete private houses?

The market for reinforced concrete private houses in Russia is quite small. The construction of monolithic reinforced concrete houses is distinguished by a high cost, a significant part of which is the cost of manufacturing individual formwork for the project; large construction companies practically do not work with private customers, preferring more profitable construction of multi-storey residential complexes.

An alternative to them was the construction of precast concrete houses. Large prefabricated DSCs also prefer the development of high-rise blocks, but the niche is occupied by medium-sized house-building plants that are ready to work with individual projects of reinforced concrete panel houses and carry out construction at low prices. nine0005

Reinforced concrete house project - opportunities and limitations

Monolithic reinforced concrete house projects have the least architectural restrictions, although costs increase sharply with the complexity of the project: a higher grade of concrete and complex reinforcement of the structure are required.

Projects of houses made of reinforced concrete panels have a number of limitations related to the bearing capacity of panels and floor slabs, they have less variability in ceiling height and there are restrictions on the length of the unsupported span. At the same time, the complication of the project within the existing framework with individual casting of panels for the project does not affect the cost of the house. nine0005

Metal frame houses: a bit of history

Houses in which the main load-bearing structures are made of metal first appeared in countries where frame dwellings are used historically. Initially, these were wooden frames, the strength of which per unit weight is much inferior to steel. In addition, the wood is exposed to microorganisms and insects that feed on the wood. If we recall the termites, which are a serious problem in a number of countries (in particular, the USA), the relevance of the search for substitute materials that are strong enough and preferably light becomes clear. As a result, light building structures made of steel coated with a thin layer of zinc, which protects the base material from corrosive attack (galvanized LSTC profiles), became such a material. nine0005

Gradually, the popularity of metal frame houses grew, initiating the development of technologies for the production of light building metal structures. Currently, houses of this type already make up more than 70% of newly built residential buildings in Canada and the United States. In Europe, they are especially popular in the UK and the Scandinavian Peninsula.

Metal frame houses in Russia

Light galvanized steel structures came to Russia just over 10 years ago. The first plant producing such structures using modern Western technologies was built in Obninsk by a team of forward-thinking engineers from the most advanced branches of domestic engineering. The leaders and some of the specialists who implemented this innovative project for their time are currently heading the Andrometa company and its main divisions. nine0005

In 2012, the same team patented a new Russian technology for the construction of steel-frame houses up to 6 floors high, STEELTOUN®, which has been introduced in a number of regions of Russia today and continues to be actively developed.

Advantages of metal frame houses, prices

The construction of a metal frame building has a high degree of rigidity and strength, and at the same time - very low metal consumption. Consequently, the weight of the entire structure is also small. This creates an opportunity to save money on the transportation of structures, on construction equipment, and subsequently - to reduce operating costs for a metal frame house. The price of building a residential building using frame technology is on average 1.2 - 1.3 times lower, and the operating costs for heating are 1.3 - 1.5 times lower than for a similar house made of brick or concrete. nine0005

The lightness and strength of metal-frame houses determine a particularly large economic effect during construction in earthquake-prone regions. Loads on structures during soil vibrations, which are directly proportional to the weight of the building, are 2-3 times lower for a house made of metal frame, as a result, the percentage of destruction is much less than when building from traditional materials.

New machine technologies used in the production of metal structures for pre-fabricated frame buildings (including those at the Andrometa steel construction plant) made it possible to significantly improve the quality of houses under construction and the accuracy of their assembly. As the process of manufacturing frame parts has moved from the construction site to the factory floor, the labor intensity and error rate during the assembly of the frame has decreased. nine0005

Environmental friendliness of metal frame construction

The environmental benefits of metal frame construction should also be mentioned. It is well known that construction timber grows for decades, and not in every region: it requires certain natural conditions. Metal, unlike wood, can be reused: when the metal frame of buildings is disposed of at the end of their service life, recycling is possible. Smelting steel from scrap reduces the cost of manufacturing new structures and causes much less environmental damage than the primary processing of ore. nine0005
