	<span style="color:red"> For the final build, we did not use the rebar shown in the model. Its intended purpose was to prevent the bricks from accidentally being knocked into the glass pane unit, but upon construction it felt stout enough to leave that extra layer of protection out. Also recommended in the future is the use of thicker sheet material. The 1/2" plywood had a significant amount of wiggle in it, making the trim-out of the interior much more difficult than it needed to be. 3/4" sheet material would provide a much straighter surface for finishing.		<span style="color:red"> For the final build, we did not use the rebar shown in the model.

	One item we discussed was getting the best performance from the direct solar gain heating system (heating of the CEB floor by sun shining through windows). Walter highly recommended putting in a thermal break between the floor and the foundation. Without this break, there heat will travel easily from the floor to the foundation. He suggested a 1" thick piece of foam, but he agreed that a 1/2" piece would be acceptable. Even at 1", the plaster and a trim board would cover it.
