[Bldg-sim] Trombe wall costs

[Sami, Vikram]

This really depends on how you design it. If you treat it as an ass on system then it could get expensive. However - if you can integrate it into the building design - (I worked on a building design with 8" concrete Trombe Walls that were used for lateral bracing as well as load bearing) - it doesn't have to be a cost add.

Subject: [Bldg-sim] Trombe wall costs

Dear all,

Does anyone have pricing information for Trombe walls handy from recent projects? While I'm particularly looking for costs pertaining to unventilated Trombe walls, any pricing information should be useful.

Thank you,
Ramana.
