2.1.1.2 Rigid green wall Rigid green wall system can be installed by using two-dimensional or three-dimensional trellises that can be free standing. This structure can either be attached to the wall for support, around the columns as well or can be totally structural with no support needed. Rigid green wall system as compared to other green wall system adds on to extra load on the wall as for the three-dimensional free standing trellises already has self-load greater than the two-dimensional trellises. This system can be installed either on the ground floor to top floor or only the middle floor as well because it does not need any horizontal supported. Plants will be chosen according to the condition.
