House project on relief
Designing a house on a slope and difficult terrain is a challenge for the architect. But an experienced designer can use the features of the site to the maximum benefit.
What are the features of designing a house on a plot with a bias.
The presence of a slope in the plot creates an increased load from precipitation and leads to an abundant accumulation of precipitation from which the house is embedded in the plot. Therefore, it is important to design a drainage system, departing from soil types.
To place a house, it is advisable to choose the highest point on the site, on the one hand. On the other hand, a rational solution may be to bury the house with a basement in the ground. With high-quality construction work, the attic option, on the contrary, will be the most energy-efficient solution. After all, the soil temperature is 20-30 degrees Celsius above the winter air temperature.
On difficult ground conditions it is sometimes rational to build on piles or columnar foundations.
Ideal if the slope is southern. Then you can easily swipe at the construction of a passive or active home.
When designing a house on a slope, you should not make a roof with an angle that is opposite to the roof slope. Indeed, in this case, all the water from the roof and slope can be collected in one place.
If the task is to create a project inexpensively at home, then you need to responsibly approach the choice of construction solutions. It is necessary to separate the structures that carry the load and whose task is thermal insulation. An excellent solution can be a combination of a concrete base and a wooden frame or floor from SIP panels.
