Hello everyone.
I'm in the design stages of a house with strawbale exterior walls.
It will have a gable roof with corrugated sheetmetal.
The overhangs will be calculated so to have optimal shading/lighting during the relevant parts of the year.
The attic will have natural ventilation, will be uninhabited and will have it's floor insulated with rockwool.
I would like to know what would be my options for:
1. the gable walls
I'm not too happy to extend the strawbale wall in a triangular shape until underneath the roof.
2. the natural ventilation of the attic
From gable to gable using ventilation grills, from ridge to ridge, both, other combinations or something completely different ?
