A cozy gazebo at the dacha is not only a place for rest, picnics with friends. Such a necessary summer residence can serve as a dining room, a summer kitchen, a veranda. Will protect you from the heat, rain, wind polycarbonate gaze with your hands. Photos of the most frequently constructed structures will be attached below. In addition to its direct purpose, this structure gives the site a special atmosphere of privacy, comfort, aesthetic completeness, harmony.

Pavilions can be completely different configurations, sizes. A variety of materials are used for their construction. However, the gazebo for dacha from polycarbonate has become especially revered by summer residents, due to its aesthetic appeal and relatively low price. An additional advantage of this choice will be the speed of the construction process, the harmonious compatibility of polycarbonate with other building materials (stone, wood, metal, forging, brick).

Pavilion for a summer residence from polycarbonate - pluses
What is the advantage of pavilions from this material in front of the other summer cottages?
- Light weight, the ability to install the structure in any preferred place.
- Competitive cost of a gazebo, in comparison with other analogues.
- Ease of installation - you do not need to attract a construction team or some complicated equipment for the erection and installation of polycarbonate construction.
- Ability to combine with other building materials.
Polycarbonate is plastic, it is easy to drill, cut, it has excellent light transmission capacity, is resistant to temperature changes, long-lived.
.For example, a gazebo canopy is done very quickly, since the design does not imply special twists, joints, joints.

If desired, you can fantasize with the design of such a simple example, add side fragments from the remaining pieces of polycarbonate.
A more original model is a gazebo in the form of a semicircle. Here you have to work a little over the bends of the frame, gently bend the sheet itself.

A wooden gazebo with fragments of polycarbonate can look like a light version, and can be presented as a detached house with transparent walls.
Photo of polycarbonate arbor for dachas:
Arbor made of metal and polycarbonate - an excellent budget, very common. The main work is the fabrication of the frame, the project is initially done, all the necessary materials are calculated. Note that for cutting a polycarbonate sheet you need to use a special saw with small denticles (large teeth crumble the material).
For work you will need a standard set of tools, as well as a drill, a saw-bolgar, large scissors, a welding machine (in some cases), a screwdriver.
.If you chose this material, then before you build an arbor in the country, take note of the main features of polycarbonate:
- In the wind, this material manifests itself like a sail, so before installing, make sure that this day is windless. When mounting especially large sheets in strong winds, you risk not being able to hold on and fall from a height. In general, to arrange the roof is better to invite a partner, he will insure you at the right time, and an extra pair of hands in this matter will not hurt.
- After the end of the fastening works, be sure to remove the shavings and construction debris from the honeycombs.
- The holes (drilling) on the polycarbonate are made between the edges, while the minimum distance from the edge of the sheet should be at least 4 cm.
- All ends should be sealed with appropriate materials for this case. Only the lower parts of the attached fragments remain open - this is necessary in order for moisture to escape unhindered from the cavity of the sheets.
It should also be taken into account that transparent polycarbonate sheets are less heated (dilated) under the rays of the scorching sun, as compared to color analogues.

Most arbours have a lightweight construction and weight, if you have such a plan, then you will not need a capital foundation. The option of concreting the site for construction will be more relevant. To do this, remove the top layer from the soil and make a gravel substrate, about 10 cm thick. Above the rubble is put concrete, about 10 cm layer, the surface is leveled by a rule or a piece of wood.
If your summerhouse for a summer residence will be illuminated in the evening, then all the electrical wires should be laid in the "foundation" even at the stage of falling asleep gravel pillow. All electrical cables are hidden in special plastic protective tubes. Also, even before the laying of concrete, it is necessary to fit in the corners of the future gazebo of the base pipe (preferably a square section). They should be dredged to the ground for 50-80 cm. Pipes (suitable 5x5 cm) serve as the main pillars of the frame, they will account for the main weight of the entire structure. When installing pipes, use the construction level and the tape measure - all parts must be immersed in the ground at the same depth.
In this case, the size of the arbours for the cottage can be anything, but the support pipes should be located in each corner, as well as under the supporting walls (if required by the configuration of the structure). After the concrete has solidified, vertical beams should be attached to the vertical support pipes - here you may need a welding machine. For these runs, not only polycarbonate sheets, but also seat benches (if designed by the project) will subsequently be attached. The metal frame gives a wide field of activity for your imagination, if desired, you can combine this design with delicate wooden details, fragments of art forging. Inserts made of stone (both natural and decorative), elements of wicker-weave, thorough columns of brick - everything that you like, in harmony with the overall picture of the house and the site can be is applicable.

As for the roof, the one-run model, of course, is the easiest option. A more intricate design requires a complicated frame scheme, welding additional metal racks in the upper frame area. To increase the rigidity of the construction, it may be necessary to add intermediate beams. They are welded around the edges and in the middle of the roof frame - polycarbonate sheets will be attached to them. On the photos below, just a gazebo for a villa with a polycarbonate roof.

Here it is worth emphasizing that all fastening manipulations should be carried out using special thermowells. These elements have special protective covers, are the best options for fixing the cellular polycarbonate.

If a 3D arbor from a polycarbonate is supposed, and its roof will consist of many separate fragments, then all junctions should be treated with silicone. For greater reliability, seams can be sealed with a special perforated belt. To better secure the sheets, special H-profiles are also used, while the profile itself is attached to the frame by screws or screws. Fragments of polycarbonate are inserted into the grooves of the profile, if necessary, a sealant is additionally used.
As already mentioned above, one more free hands will not only prevent you, but also optimize the work process. Sometimes, according to the design features, it is necessary to bend, hold and fix large sheets, and this alone is very difficult to do.

To ensure that your gazebo was not only practical, but also cozy, it can be decorated with appropriate details. For example, the same supporting pillars can be braided by climbing plants or welded to them with reliable metal holders for flower pots. If the gazebo is small, then the side walls should be further strengthened - so they can easily become backboards for benches. Keep in mind that all elements of the arbor will constantly interact with weather patterns, temperature changes, so all the details of the building should not be afraid of moisture. Lighting devices also need a high degree of moisture and dust protection (special electrical appliances with a protection index of not less than IP44).
Whatever was your polycarbonate gazebo with your own hands, the photos presented above are only the initial, most common designs. If the plot area allows, and your imagination prompts new non-standard ideas, this building can become a completely unique architectural creation for everyone to envy.
