Green hut – Magroc Envelope Done!

Our magroc external envelope is now completed.  The roof has proved to be a bit of a labour of love but the final product is worth it.  Below a photo of the space created upstairs by the magroc and portal frames we made onsite.  Although it has taken a while the space created is worth it.  Next step get the windows in and then we should quickly see how warm our house will be.  The roof also achieves a whopping R7.2 insulation rating.  I can’t wait to get the windows in because then we have a fully insulated building envelope without one piece of wall lining or insulation being installed.  I intend to put a thermometer inside the house and monitor the temperature inside now in the middle of winter to see how we will go next year without any heating
