[Field Dispatch · Dho Tarap, Dolpo, Nepal (4,000 m)] Crystal Mountain School — Designing the Thermal Array

We are embedding a roughly 50-sensor temperature array into the walls and rooms of the new multipurpose hall at Crystal Mountain School while it is being built — the first systematic thermal-performance dataset for a passive solar building at 4,000 m in Nepal. These are the design notes; the data comes after commissioning, not before.
