Construction
The construction is made of impregnated softwood. Spruce and pine wood, which is not technically-dried, acquires its greenish color from metal salts released by the impregnating agent. They protect wood against fungus and insect infestations, but do not contain UV protection. Impregnation gives wood higher residual moisture. Subsequent drying can lead to release of resin, twisting and formation of drying cracks, which pose no static disadvantage and rather reflect the natural materials used.
Color treatment
Water-based impregnation protects the wooden components of this building kit from fungus and insect infestations. The building kit can be assembled immediately upon delivery. The wooden surface should be further treated no sooner than 2-3 sunny months later, after the excess impregnation has dried. Lightly sand and clean the surface prior to coating. Apply two coats of premium wood varnish to the surface. Look for good UV protection of the products and follow the guidelines of the varnish manufacturer. Calculate service intervals of about 4-5 years, prior to the appearance of visible damage. Follow the processing guidelines of the varnish manufacturer.
Roofing
The roof is supplied with 20 mm-thick roof boarding of solid wood roofing with roof shingles.
Bracing
The building kit includes 60 cm-long H-post anchors of galvanized flat steel for embedding in concrete in the site-built deep foundation (for size and lay-out see assembly instructions). They firmly connect the posts to the subsurface to ensure high stability.
