RE: Greenhouse plans 2019 - Part 3
Nice design!
We have been talking about greenhouse ideas for our place, as well. My feeling is that you do not see much snow in Northumberland like, here, in Nova Scotia. My guess is that England will begin to see harsher winters with the advance of climate change. It may not take much wet, heavy, snow to do a number on the plastic roofing of the design, with water weighing in at 1 gram per cubic centimeter.
The structure looks long lasting enough (is that a cement footing?) that such factors might be considered.
Following with interest!
Haha yeah we get snow but nothing like Nova Scotia a couple feet max, the roof is the weak point currently but its on the todo list to make stronger, trying to find a way to make it clear to transmit light but hold a load is proving interesting....
The greenhouse will be on a concrete foundation thats already in place, but is only a little bigger that the breeze block wall, not a giant slab like the model makes it look like (hope that makes sense)
Thanks for stopping by
