Because Norway does have them
i think thats made more for snow
It is a "0 energy" home
Made to use as little energy as it can to stay warm in the coldest of times
Being raised off the ground like that reduces heat transfer to the soil by a lot
yeah and snow build up probably too
All buildings in Antarctica are on stilts too for this exact reason
seeing you don't want any snow to touch the building and make it colder then it already is
Snow is an insulator to a certain degree
It does not allow the temperature to go below -4 if the layer is thick enough
Case-in-point: Igloo
yep
its not usually the cold either its the wind
House on stilts in cold places is mostly a thermal bridge reduction
As an added bonus you get a parking lot with a "roof" under the house too
Exactly: windchill is more dangerous than even -40Β°C
We should nuke the wind to stop global cooling
Wind can deprive you of your heat faster than cold air which is standing still
its like a fridge in a way
a igloo is a pretty good counter to wind, the native people probably knew that too
I stayed in an ice hotel once in Quebec.
It was pretty ||cool||
that would be "cool"
It's gonna just be cold, or death. Ergo, igloos.
Tankies Grab everything they can get
Igloos are warm
and share equally
Well, warmer than artic winds for sure.
When your in the cold itβs the best you get. If you had been through that kinda cold you would understand
Well igloos are warmer
@RAM II And I have, as said - better cold, than being an ice stague.
