How the footprint is set

01 · Length

8 bay sections of 4.00 m13 ft 1 in set the length: 32.00 m105 ft. The bay section — the column spacing along the gutter — is the repeat unit of the structure: one more section adds 4.00 m13 ft 1 in of length.

02 · Width

4 truss spans of 8.00 m26 ft 3 in set the width: 32.00 m105 ft. That completes the growing footprint: 1,024 m²11,022 sq ft under glass.

03 · Service building

A 20.0 × 8.0 m65 ft 7 in × 26 ft 3 in service building sits alongside the greenhouse — 160 m²1,722 sq ft for packing, technical installations and storage.

04 · The footprint

Overall footprint: 40.00 × 32.00 m131 ft 3 in × 105 ft — 1,184 m²12,744 sq ft covered. Every model in the series is composed the same way: scaling up adds sections and spans, not a redesign.
