Used Log Cabin

Need to test using a couple of odd blocks form garden, that spacing won't sit right with bearers

Also, is it going to be ok having my bearers, resting on edge of concrete blocks with bearers hanging over by 10mm as drip edge?

 

Just going through other costs. As my floor will take 50mm insulation now and be off the ground 100mm

• 50mm Celotex for roof/floor 15 sheets
• osb3 might go 18mm as Wickes only have 9mm or 18mm (unless 9mm is enough)

£508.09 collected. How does that sound?

 

Think your right there (as normal )

One side of roof is 5700x1830
Opposite side of roof is 5700x2550

Equally, I will need more ply than originally thought.

 

Whats the pro's and cons of doing this?

Bearers straight on concrete, some type of DPM wrapped around whole bearers then over top of bearers before first logs?

And that install won't of been cheap, I'm amazed these cabins get fitted like they do. The mess I'm in with mine is crazy.

So back to raising it on blocks for me then.

 

• Celotex 1200 x 2400 mm
• OSB3 1220 x 2440 mm

So as ply comes 20mm bigger each way I just used the Celotex calculation on 2.88 m2

Roof Side 5.7 x 1.83 = 10.43

• 10.43 / 2.88 = 4 sheets

Roof Side 5.7 x 2.55 = 14.54

• 14.54 / 2.88 = 6 sheets

Floor 5.3 x 3.8 = 20.14

• 21.14 / 2.88 = 7 sheets

So If I go for

17 Sheets of Celotex and 10 sheets of ply?

 

Which type of 50mm wood is ideal for around roof perimeter where Ply is fixed too?

 

Wickes are out of 11mm so probably going 18mm. Need this midweek as going to tackle all this. Wickes also have 10% off until tomorrow night, so probably ordering tonight or Monday morning.
