Greetings, how are you steemit friends? Hopefully healthy always and keep the spirit, it seems today has changed with the look of steemit and more fresh, thanks to steemit team for still giving the best things to this amazing community.

My discussion today is about tree houses because for the children of the tree house is a very interesting playhouse, it is also a very enticing place for the rest of the adult, so I am sure every one of us can realize a strong tree house, interesting and durable and hopefully this discussion is useful.

Lately, there are many models of tree houses published on the internet, the creation of a diverse tree house just makes us interested to have it even if just a place to rest or even make a tree house as a permanent habitation.

For the architect, the tree house is an alternative to realize a habitable home or even in some developed countries, the tree house can actually be a luxury hotel and natural impression because it is built in a pollution-free green area.

Some residential developers or residential areas consider tree houses to be applied to certain areas as an alternative to saving the environment from pollution, the tree house is also considered more environmentally friendly.

Actually, tree houses have long been used by humans as permanent habitation houses, the use of tree houses as habitation is done to this day by some traditional societies, such as Korowai tribe in Papua. [source]

The traditional community initially built a tree house to avoid the attack of wild animals, natural phenomena such as floods and so forth. But now the tree house has evolved into a playground for children, rest areas, study areas and so forth.

You can also build your own tree house in the backyard like a comfortable, luxurious inn, but how about if you want to build your own tree house?

We should know in advance about the buffer of a good tree house so as not to endanger the user, the tree house does not use a particular foundation as a buffer, tree house only use the tree as a buffer and foundation so the selection of good trees is strongly recommended to use.

But in a certain type of tree house also added several types of buffers and so on as reinforcement, this reinforcement is due to poor trees when receiving the load or the house is built too large so that the tree is not able to support it.

KNOWING TREE AS A HOUSE CANTILEVER

Trees are known as woody plants and have a single root species and are rooted in fibers, a tree is considered to have a true stem and is larger than a bush.[source]

The meaning of wood is a plant that undergoes a period of lignification, this lignification process can make the tree trunk becomes hard. [source]

Wood hardness level can be known from the density of the wooden segment or fiber, a more tightly the segment, the wood will be harder and better used.

You should also choose a tree that has a strong root and embedded with certainty, you can choose the type taproot or literal root, because for the root tree serves as a support tree to avoid collapse and other biological functions so it can be ascertained if the roots are well planted and strong expected to withstand the burden of the house we will build.

You can also make sure the tree does not have a poor medical history, such as experiencing parasitic defects and other things that cause the tree to be disturbed.

the rod to be used as a base of a house should also be strong, healthy and not weakened due to internal and external factors.

BUILD HOUSE TREE

Once you have found a suitable tree to support for the house to be built then you should coordinate with the local government to ascertain if there are any special rules regarding the construction of a tree house and your neighbors regarding the construction of the tree house.

Trees with a diameter of 30 cm can be used as a tree house with a size of 200x200 cm if you have trouble finding a tree that has a diameter it is recommended that you make additional support as an amplifier. [source]

Design your home by taking into account the safety and costs incurred from building this house and consult with experts whenever possible.

As we know that a tree house will move in the direction of the tree when blown by the wind, you should determine the type of support to lock the house position in anticipation if it turns out the movement is too fast, you can use the embedded pole as a buffer, install the beams directly tree or using a cable as a house suspension. [source]

You should not forget to design a ladder because it would be weird if you had to climb a tree to enter the house. You can design standard ladder, rope ladder or so forth.[source]

You should also keep safety, follow the precautions as follows.

Building a tree house too high will increase the risk of accidents so you should build a house in accordance with the original plan, if the house is for children then the home base should not be more than 1.80 -2.40 m from the ground. Make a safety fence that surrounds the house with a minimum height of 90 cm. You should also provide a retaining pad made of natural materials, such as straw or so on under the tree house, this pad serves to reduce the risk of injury from falling. [source]

BASIC STAGE

By selecting a "V" branched branch it is expected to strengthen the planned house and serve as an additional holder.[source]

Avoid using spikes, you should use drilling system for this early stage, drilling is meant that each hole has the same depth so it will not cause the house tilt later.

You have to make sure the basic frame is really strong for later use, in addition, you can add an iron plate at each timber meeting and connection meetings.

Once the basic house frame is finished and strong then it is time you make sure the type of a cantilever I have mentioned above, a cantilever can you use the type of pole planting, stick on tree trunks or suspension.

If the basic frame of the house has been done then you can continue other work such as floors, wall frames, roof frames and others that are considered important.

CONCLUSION

The tree house can be applied as a rest house and can also be utilized as permanent habitation, the tree house is considered more environmentally friendly so it is possible that the tree house will be mass produced so that it can be enjoyed by the community easily.

If you want to build a tree house for children, it is advisable to follow safety procedures to avoid life-threatening accidents.

In accordance with technological developments and the many types of materials circulating in the market, it will facilitate us to realize the desire to build a tree house that is environmentally friendly and comfortable.

Some developed countries actually use the tree house as a means of learning to nature and make the tree house as a tourist destination such as, making the tree house as a hotel in the protected forest area.

In Aceh tree houses can be built easily, given the abundant resources and the management of uncomplicated government permits.

This is the only thing I can write on this occasion, over all the mistakes and lack of unintentional writing as a servant of God, I apologize.
