[Cob] cob greenhouse questionMalcolm Schluenderfritz mschluenderfritz at gmail.comFri Sep 18 14:31:38 CDT 2015
I am building a small greenhouse, 16 feet by 8 feet, and 8 feet tall. The North and West walls will be cob, and about 18 inches thick. I will be inserting some pieces of concrete as we go, in the center of the wall. The walls are straight, not curved. Do I need to add buttresses to this wall to keep it up, or is it thick enough? The North and West walls already form a corner, so they provide at least a little Lateral support to each other.
