Construction of a house according to the project "Budget 1
At home, this is a very important and responsible event that requires large financial investments, as well as quite a few of your own physical strength with independent participation.
Today you can learn a lot on the Internet, find and download any project at home, ask for advice in groups and forums, watch videos from famous bloggers, learn the basics of construction is quite real, which will help you a lot in the future.
So here we can see another experience of a family from the Kharkov region who built their own house on a plot of 6 acres. With a solid foundation of reinforced concrete and blocks. It has an impressive basement with red brick partitions, the walls themselves are built of gas silicate blocks (this building material is popular today).

Step-by-step instructions for building a house with your own hands, according to the project "Budget 1"
As mentioned above, construction is a long and expensive process that is best approached consciously and thoroughly. First you need to decide what type of house you need, download the architectural plan of the future house, draw up an estimate, clear and mark the site according to the drawing.
After that, an important operation takes place - this is the pouring of the foundation, here you also need to decide right away, so as not to make irreparable mistakes in the future. It is necessary to know the composition of the soil and whether there are quicksands, at what depth does groundwater occur? Attention! If there are quicksands on your land, then it is not recommended to install a heavy type of foundation; a slab or screw piles are more suitable.
For clarity, the project of the house "Budget 1" is presented.
Next, you should mark the site with a rope tape measure and pegs.
The marked area should be freed from the surface layer of turf.
After that, you can start digging trenches for pouring the foundation.
At the bottom of the resulting recess, it is necessary to lay a sand cushion and compact it. Then make a frame of reinforcement using a knitting wire.
This is exactly how it should look like.
Ready-made concrete is poured into the prepared trench.
The process must be controlled and the mixture leveled.
After pouring, it is required to wait at least 1 month for the cement to dry, get stronger and gain strength. Also, builders recommend periodically moistening the surface with water, so there will be no drying out and the concrete will be much stronger.
On the foundation received, the author will continue to lay concrete blocks, this is all done with the help of a truck crane with an arrow.
Large blocks, like bricks, are placed in a checkerboard pattern in order to form a bundle between themselves.
On the basis of the blocks obtained, a formwork is constructed from the board and OSB.
A reinforcement frame is laid inside.
Again filled with concrete and leveled.
It is also worth worrying about sewerage, if it is not possible to connect to the central system, then you will have to make your own. Why do you need to dig a deep hole for the installation of a septic tank.
In this case, these will be concrete rings.
Sewer pipes are interconnected and removed, the pit is again covered with earth.
Soil is again poured onto the ceiling of the basement and compacted.
The laying of the walls begins.
First of all, it is worth taking care of waterproofing and laying a couple of layers of roofing material on blocks before laying.
Block laying starts strictly from the corner. 
Well, they managed the rack before the onset of real winter and hid the house under the roof, in fact, as our author expected. The main work was done perfectly, further finishing will begin in the spring, when it gets warmer. A lot of work and effort was invested in this house, but it was built by hand for a large family. As the saying goes "a real man in life must do 3 things - give birth to a son, plant a tree and build a house" The author is a happy man and his life is a success. Well done!
