More specifically, this fourth volume focuses on architectural integration, environmental prediction and how to simulate and structurally size a bioclimatic wooden greenhouse. In more general terms, it helps us to consider how to design and build the structure of bioclimatic, low-energy architecture, with low environmental impact.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis multi-volume book covers both free-standing greenhouses that can naturally heat and cool themselves, and lean-to greenhouses that support the natural heating and cooling of buildings; this includes both agricultural greenhouses and greenhouses suited to host people. As a result, it is a trans-disciplinary work deriving its areas of concern from a broad range of study areas, spanning from environmental, to constructional, to structural, drawing the clarity of the approach from the fact that the topics are presented by a single author with a single voice and a designer's mindset.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo achieve this, the book adopts a composite set of explanatory strategies and communication registers – including extensive support by 3D construction drawings and examples – and presents not only stateof-the-art solutions, but also experimental ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1 Greenhouse Typologies 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Stand-alone greenhouse typologies 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1.1 At the core of the stand-alone solar greenhouse conception 4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1.2 Cold frames 10\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1.3 Solar pit greenhouses 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1.4 Tall stand-alone greenhouses 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1.5 “Non-solar” stand-alone greenhouses 14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Greenhouses serving buildings 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2.1 Integrating the direct gain strategy 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2.2 Integrating the indirect gain scheme from attached solar greenhouses 21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2.3 Atria 44\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2.4 Greenhouses as buffer spaces 46\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2.5 The house-in-greenhouse scheme 47\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2.6 Solutions using the ground as primary thermal storage 50\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Additional readings 59\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2 Calculation Approaches 61\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Thermal calculations 62\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1.1 Calculation of the heat transmission through an opaque panel 62\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1.2 Determination of the average temperature of a greenhouse in steady state 68\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1.3 A simplified calculation method of the steady-state temperature in a stand-alone solar greenhouse (experimental) 72\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1.4 Thermal flux through an indirect solar gain system like a solar wall 88\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1.5 Thermal flux through an attached greenhouse 89\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Computer simulation as a calculation approach 90\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eVI Design and Construction of Bioclimatic Wooden Greenhouses 4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Environmental simulation by means of open-source tools 92\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3.1 Basic thermal modeling and simulation criteria 93\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Structural calculations 136\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4.1 Preliminary structural sizing 136\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4.2 Preliminary structural sizing with open-source simulation tools 174\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4.3 Techniques for exploring the design options on the basis of the simulated performances 178\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4.4 Metamodeling 201\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3 Design Studies 211\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 What is still to be said in greenhouse design 211\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Calimali’s greenhouse in Fagnano Olona, Italy By Greenhouse Design Workshop 212\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 House “D” in Nantes Xavier Fouquet 220\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.4 Bioclimatic house in Villeneuve-Tolosane, France – Nycholas Eydoux 229\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.5 House in Vals, Italy Studio Albori 247\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.6 Rehabilitation and extension of the house “AT” in Fagnano Olona Paolo Carlesso 257\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.7 Greenhouse from recycled windows at “Casamatta”, Gurone, Malnate (Varese), Italy Marta Robecchi 261\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.8 House “GdA” in Cairate, Italy Paolo Carlesso 270\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.9 A conference greenhouse at Cascina Cuccagna in Milan Studio Arcò 275\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConclusion 285\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfterword 287\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendices 289\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 1: Thermal and Acoustic Properties of Construction Materials 291\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 2: Strength of Timber According to the Norm EN 338 295\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix 3: Properties of Transparent Materials 299\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 301\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 319\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSummaries of other volumes 323\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Civil engineering, surveying \u0026amp;
