Σύνοψη

The objective of this diploma project is the discovery of greenhouse glazing system. In order to fully understand the concept and be able to design a glazing system I had to do research to understand the operation and even see through patents what is done by other designers nowadays.
Firstly a general research concerning greenhouses was conducted in order to gain knowledge about basic things. Afterwards an analysis starting from the fundamental level of the greenhouse design took place in order to discover basic functions and characteristics to be considered. Later on a deeper literature survey was curried out in order to acquire further knowledge about the latest changes and releases in greenhouse glazing systems design. It includes production methods, anatomy and materials used today.
Despite the fact that I faced things I was never taught before, I worked slowly and steadily, gained the understanding of things and ended in a solution and a possible new unique design of a greenhouse glazing system. Although I didn't do any construction and experimentation, it is in my future plans to try it and see the outcome.
