General

See Door Requirement also.

  • Starts at height which joins top of window frame right under bond beam.
  • No trim required after stucco is applied to metal lath on outside
  • Indoor connection to wall includes stucco on interior.
  • Contract-First Design - Define any window module as a 4' width (standard 4'x8' construction material for zero wastage)
  • Test-Driven Development - Test the sample range of sizes for commonly available windows. Test the interface design for fit into a frame. Fit test Condition: determine standard window size for house sliding storm windows. Then oversize the frame to allow all window sized to fit. Devise insulation pattern to match.
  • Modularity - wrapper (interface on interface) must be defined in 4x8 standard panel size to fit - so frames are identical, but
  • Iterative Design - Design the test to pass - do the simplest test to pass it - simplify. Repeat.
  • Flexibility -
  • Swarming -
  • Contingency - see MicroHouse_6_Apertures_Contingency_Plan.

Test Design

  • Test that window can fit 4x8
  • Test that frame itself is flush with finished wall
  • Test that design is self-trimming
