Chapter 141: Install wooden windows and raise gables

   Han Cheng is directing people to install windows.

   Nowadays, there are no electric hammers or expansion screws. If you want the doors and windows to be strong, you need to install the doors and windows when you build the house.

   The bottom of the window is not high, only 1.2 meters above the ground. This is the size that Han Cheng chose after some thinking and comparison. After all, the people of the Qingque tribe are generally low, and the windows do not need to be too high.

   After the front wall reached a height of 1.2 meters, it stopped first.

   waited until the two windows were fixed before proceeding.

   said it was installing windows, but it was actually easy.

Limp and another person placed the somewhat loose window on the front wall of the wooden row. Han Cheng watched the deviation from a distance, and then gave an order to the big brother who was ready to go. When he went down in the mud, he pressed the two ends of the deliberately long wooden frame under the window.

After the wooden windows were fixed, pockets of wet soil began to pour into the middle of the sandwiched wooden rows. As the soil increased and the loose soil was compacted, the wooden windows were firmly built into the wall. .

There is one more thing to note. Because of the inconvenience of tools, there are no wooden frames on the left and right sides of the finished windows. In order to avoid mud squeezing over the windows when the walls on both sides of the windows are rammed, it is necessary to stick wood on the left and right sides in advance. Several wooden pillars split in two were placed vertically on the windows.

   The round face faces the mud wall, and the flat face faces the window.

   In this way, it can not only block the dirt from coming, but also increase the beauty, so that the wooden windows look like all four frames are not lacking.

  The same is true for doors, which need to be prepared in advance, but do not install the door leaf at this time. Just build the door frame and the wall together. The door leaf and the door frame are not very connected. After the house is built, it will not be too late to make and install the door leaf.

   After finishing the foundation and the one-meter-high stone wall below, the simple rammed earth wall progressed very quickly, and within a few days, it was ‘flattened’.

   The so-called flat stacking means that the wall has reached a predetermined height.

   The wall is not too high, it is only two meters tall. What Han Cheng built is not a big blue brick house. Such a height is very good.

   Although the house manufactured this time is quite different from Luquan, there are still many similarities.

The big brothers looked at the deer pen, and then looked at the house. They felt that the next thing God had to do was to continue to raise the front wall, and then use wooden beams, rafters, fences and other things to make the back like a deer pen. The sloping roof came out.

   As the great son of the Qingque tribe who does not believe in God, how can Han Cheng let them guess his own routine?

   He did not let people continue to raise the front wall, but raised the ‘gable’ on both sides.

The    side wall will be called a gable. The main reason is that it has a triangle on it, which looks more like an abstract mountain.

   In this process, the tape measure and ruler that Han Cheng made before came in handy.

   After all, four ‘House Mountains’ need to be connected together. Without a ruler, I want to build them at the same height, but it’s a little troublesome.

   After Han Cheng said what he was going to do next, those in the Qingque tribe who had guessed in advance, once again felt the wisdom and unpredictability of the son of God.

   Then, under the guidance of the **** child, began to play "House Mountain"

Compared with a straight wall, the triangular "House Mountain" is more difficult to make, but it is not insurmountable. Under the command of Han Cheng and the hard work of the big brothers and others, the four paths are the same in height and roughly in shape. A similar "House Mountain" also gradually emerged.

   said it was a triangle. In fact, this triangle is not complete. The main reason is that two small platforms with a length of 30 cm appeared on the upper two sides.

   These two small platforms divide the edges into three evenly.

   Except for this small platform, the top of the triangle is also flat, which is also a small platform of 30 cm.

  Of course, these small platforms are not deliberately flowed out to destroy the beauty of "House Mountain", but are used to prepare wooden beams for the next step.

People from the    Qingque tribe are now putting wooden beams on the roof. After the wooden beams have been burnt, they have used stone axes and stone knives to rest for a while.

   Except for the beam on the ridge of the roof, which is required to be straight and straight, it does not matter if the other beams are bent a bit, which reduces the difficulty a lot.

   "One two!"

   "One two!"

   Senior brother shouted the chants he learned from the **** son, standing on the shelf, pulling the rope in his hand with the third brother.

   The other end of the rope is tied to the bottom end of a beam.

   beam wood stands on the west wall, leaning against the shelf on the side of the west wall.

   With the strength of the three big brothers, the end of the beam that touched the ground began to leave the ground, and the saddle on the inner shelf of the west wall held the wooden beam against the shelf by hand to prevent it from falling over.

  Because the wooden beam is to be erected on the gable wall, its length is wider than the room. In addition, there are now half-meter-wide shelves on both sides of the house, which shortens the width of the room.

With the pulling of the big brothers, the end of the wooden beam gradually rises and becomes straight, and the end of the wooden beam also runs under the shelf. If you don't want to do it, you can't pull it up by deadlift. .

At this time, there was another person standing on the other side. They held the end of the wooden beam leaning on the shelf and began to pull towards them~www.wuxiahere.com~ With their movements, the wood The other end of the beam came out from under the shelf under the feet of the big brother and others.

With the joint efforts of people on both sides, the wooden beam that    pulled up was put on a small platform set aside in advance on the gable wall.

  Because the thickness of the two ends of the wooden beams is not the same, they need to be adjusted after the wooden beams are erected, and some small stones and pottery pieces are placed under the thin section.

   is to adjust the height and make the wooden beams flat, and the second is to increase the firmness.

  Because the beams are too long to go up, and the ones that are long enough are hard to find, these wooden beams are all truncated, and a total of fifteen beams are needed for the three houses.

   Except for the platforms on the two east and west walls, two wooden beams are needed on the platforms of the two gables in the middle.

   In order to prevent the wooden beam on the side from falling off the platform, it is necessary to tie them firmly together with a rope.

   There is another point to note, that is, the wooden beams on the two outer walls of the east and west are not directly aligned with the outside of the outer wall, but ten centimeters inward.

   After the house was built, mud was used to paste the empty hole so that the wooden beams were no longer visible from the outside. This way, the wooden beams would be protected from the wind and sun and would not rot and grow mushrooms.

After    the wooden beams are built, the next step is to tie the rafters to it, and then lay the fences.

  Chaezi's things are not being done lame, he is almost too busy, but two women in the tribe who are not too strong.

   Fortunately, the fence is not complicated. They have not rarely seen lameness before, but now they have taught how to limp, and they have all learned. The fences they make are not bad.
