Build a house on land 12 m x 18 m

This time I want to explain the construction of houses on land measuring approximately 12 m x 18 m. Who want to build houses have the following specifications:
  1. Room master bedroom and bathroom.
  2. Two of the child's bedroom.
  3. Rather large open kitchen, dining room and bar for breakfast.
  4. Family room.
  5. A wide front porch. Since you may not receive too many guests, and guests usually sit together in the living room.
  6. Sleeping room attendants, bathroom attendants and laundry room.
  7. The park is visible from across the room.
  8. Carport for one car.
  9. Home to make it look great include office space and some areas of the wall to display family photographs.
For that you should make the building of two floors, so you still have a garden around the building. I take GSB 4.5 m. For GSB, you can adjust the existing rules. As for the division of space, first floor for activities that are public, while the second floor is used for activities that are personal.

First Floor:
  1. Entering the land through carport flanked by gardens on either side.
  2. Terrace size of 2 m x 3.5 m which protected the roof, can be used to sit back with a view of trees in the park.
  3. Foyer or reception is a substitute for the living room. In this space you can put furniture such as tables with knick-knacks or photo collection.
  4. Next is the dining room adjacent to the kitchen measuring 3.5mx 3.5 m. This kitchen also has a bar overlooking the dining room.
  5. Next to the kitchen there is a sitting room for receiving guests. There is a small work area that separates the living room and family room. Both of these rooms have a view towards the garden side and rear. In the absence of bulkhead with dining room, automatically from the dining room can also look toward the garden.
  6. The stairs to the second floor at the front, adjacent to the family room.
  7. Toilets are in the front, adjacent to the bathroom attendants, and laundry room which can be accessed from the opposite direction.
Second floor:
  1. Child's bedroom is on the right side, one was in front with a window opening towards the balcony, and another is at the rear with a window opening towards the rear garden.
  2. Child's bedroom and master bedroom are separated by a corridor, can be used for displaying family photos.
  3. The corridor is also used to enter the light and air with openings at both ends.
  4. The master bedroom above the living room with openings to the side garden. Bathroom, master bedroom and bathroom for the children side by side for easy installation.
  5. Balcony is a recipient of the roof terrace, accessible from the door in front of the stairs.
  6. Maid's bedroom is at the front with a separate staircase access.
To give the impression of a big house I gave the field tends to smooth.

Ventilation For Gas Cylinder Storage

In addition to requiring ventilation down to the gas storage space, large openings in the roof of an anticipatory wise in case of an accident.
 
It turned out that gas cylinders at home you need to breathe. Its lighter than oxygen and requires a high-pressure liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) are stored in a safe place. There have been many horrible cases due to the use and storage of LPG is less precise. So, let the breathing gas is free!

The three "enemies" of the main gas cylinder
Agency for assessment and implementation of technology (BPPT) in Indonesia, said there were at least three things that can cause leaks, even the explosion of the use of gas cylinders is wrong. First, the poor quality of the stove components, tubing and other accessories such as hose regulator and valve. This can be overcome by the way: do not use a hose that is too long and careful in installing the seal regulator. If the tube is not used in a long time, close the valve with a seal cap. Problem of laying gas cylinders in storage space is not vented into the second trigger the use of LPG in the accident. As a chamber that holds the dangerous element, space is generally placed under the sink or behind the kitchen set should have a special ventilation. The third trigger, a lack of public knowledge of the characteristics of LPG as well as securing the right way.

Ventilation window multi-function security
As the "nose" of a dimension of space, ventilation not only serves as a port rotation of the air. The presence of ventilation in enclosed spaces in addition to providing a fresh breeze of air circulation, but also directly support the object I therein. Enclosed spaces that are rarely touched like a gas cylinder storage space is usually unnoticed.









Special ventilation tubes for gas storage space is not just the air holes. Because it stores objects that are aeraosol, ventilation should be prepared carefully. LPG is flammable and high pressure should be placed parallel to the plane around. Storage space was much more secure when away from the pipeline and exposure to direct sunlight. The most wise, give vent to the bottom door of cabinet storage space. Because the density of gas that is lighter than air, the gas will flow down near the ground. This vents the gas stream that runs beneath the air so it can be detected if there is a leak. Aside from being air circulation, ventilation also maintain the gas pressure is stable. For materials storage cabinet or room door, it is better to use non-flammable materials. Avoid the use of wood and fiberglass.
