Greenhouse Operations Management: Greenhouse StructuresGOM1.1Greenhouse Structures, Frames and CoveringsGreenhouse StructuresFreestandingIt’s easy to manage the upkeep of freestanding greenhouse structures. Snow removal,temperature regulation, and ventilation are simple because the structure is not connected to anyother structure. They also boast the advantage of providing uniform light. However, freestandingstructures are more expensive to build, and require more energy and space.ConnectedConnected greenhouse structures are built together and share a single roof. They are easier toconstruct, and require fewer building materials. Walls inside the connected structures delineatezones for different kinds of plants. Less energy is expended when heating and cooling theconnected structures because of the advantage of the shared walls. However, it is harder to adjusttemperatures or apply insecticides in specific zones within the connected structure. It is alsodifficult to remove snow from the roof and gutters. Connected structures also have moreshadows and less light.Lean ToThe lean-to is a modified connected greenhouse structure. It is built facing east or south, andshares one wall with an existing structure. It is a small structure, generally only 7 to 12 feet wide,with not much room inside. Utilities like heat, water, and electricity come from the connectedbuilding. The lean-to does not have good roof support. Growers often use a lean-to for startingseeds.Greenhouse FramesGothic ArchThe Gothic Arch frame is a freestanding structure. It is built in a rounded style, with a subtlepeak at the top of the roof. This allows for ample room inside for the growing of potted plantsand spring annuals.QuonsetQuonset frames are freestanding structures, developed during World War II. They are entirelyrounded, and simple to build. Their rounded shape takes storage space away from the walls andcuts into the space overhead.A-FrameThe A-Frame is a freestanding structure. Each side of the roof runs straight from the ground tothe tip of the roof. It is a straightforward design that uses less material than a standard even span.A-frames have ample space along the walls, and boast good air circulation.Greenhouse Operations Management GOM1 Greenhouse Structures

The revised edition of Greenhouse Operation and Management is designed as a semester course for 11th and 12th grade students who are interested in various aspects of greenhouse production. The curriculum comprises seven units that reflect relevant issues of concern to a greenhouse owner: (1) The Greenhouse Industry, (2) Growing Structures,

The greenhouse covering is the primary decision when choosing a greenhouse design. The different types of greenhouse coverings, or glazings, can be used on the bowed, quonset-style greenhouse or the A-frame, peaked-roof greenhouse. When either style of greenhouse is connected at the eaves or gutters, the greenhouses are known as gutter-connected

Greenhouse gas emissions from Washington State agencies represent about 1.0 percent of total state greenhouse gas emissions. However, state government is in a unique position to demonstrate leadership in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change. This report provides information about greenhouse gas emissions by Washington .
