How to make a utility block with a canopy?

When designing buildings on personal plots, it is permissible to place utility blocks. These one-storey buildings are not intended for housing and serve as homeownership or land maintenance. According to the development planning standards in accordance with the technical code of good practice (TPK), in agreement with local authorities, architecture, on the land plot, you can build a shed for inventory and fuel (firewood, briquettes), a kitchen, a garage, a bathhouse, a shower, a shed for transport ...

It remains to decide how to do this: apply for services to a construction company or build an object on your own.

The construction of outbuildings, like any other structure, involves a master plan and design:

• the height of the structure;
• the composition of the premises;
• materials used for the foundation, walls, roof, awning, roof, floors;
• detailed calculation of the cost of materials (estimate);

This is a multifunctional structure with a roof and a common wall for the utility block. The erection of a structure with a canopy allows you to save on the space of a suburban area and the hiring of specialists, installation time.

The ledge increases the area of ​​the main structure and represents a terrace for relaxation, a parking for a car, an open workshop, a kitchen-dining room, a place for a firebox and other needs. The visor is attached if it is not designed in advance.

The leaders in the use of materials for utility units under construction are timber and brick frames, wooden structures, canopies made of metal profiles and polycarbonate roofs. Supports for a canopy are mounted using bricks, foam blocks, concrete, metal racks are installed or wall beams are used.

The cladding of the finished structure is made from lining, boards, timber. The roof can be made of both eco-friendly wooden planks, slats, beams, and synthetic materials: durable plastic polycarbonate with high light transmittance and protection from solar ultraviolet radiation, ceramic and metal tiles.

Buildings with a canopy for summer cottages differ in quality and characteristics. They can be isolated from the dwelling or adjacent to it, budget or expensive, for small and large areas. The shape of the structure is straight or at an angle, in the classic version with one or more rooms, different entrances. In a modern architectural style, there is an arched canopy made of transparent polycarbonate, reinforced to the roof or with a stretch roof for recreation, buildings with a flat roof made of slatted material, from a profiled mini-bar, a kitchen with a terrace under one roof of the house. Types of frequently built projects:

• barbecue house;
