This is the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) manual for CCAT greenshed west wall. Please refer to it and keep it up to date with any O&M changes.
Summary
The CCAT greenshed west wall is a straw clay slip wall that was constructed using a wooden frame and filled with a straw and clay mix. Twenty-nine ‘liters of light’ are dispersed along the wall. The wall was finished using a lime plaster. The wall was well built, leaving very little required maintenance.
Maintenance
- It is not recommended to mount or hang anything directly from the straw clay slip wall. Rather, objects should be mounted to the wooden frame.
- Avoid stacking items against the wall that would prevent the wall from being able to breathe.
REPAIRING CRACKS AND FISSURES
Overtime, the straw clay slip wall will be subject to deterioration due to weathering. Minor cracks in the plaster do not pose a serious threat to the structural integrity of the wall. However, it may be beneficial to patch minor cracks with a plaster to prevent the inside from accumulating too much moisture, preventing mold growth and insect infiltration. The straw clay slip wall needs to breathe, so a lime plaster is recommended. Refer to the “plaster” section on this project’s Appropedia page for detailed steps to recreating a similar plaster.

Instructions
This is how to maintain. The step by step how to template {{How to}} is most likely best for this part.
Troubleshooting
This is only how to troubleshoot basic operation. For complex issues, the solution might just say contact ________. It should be a table in this format:
Problem | Suggestion |

Suggestions for future changes
This is where to lay out suggestions for how to make the project function better in the future.
