Hello <br>I have cheap axess to strawbales. Unfortunately have no land available for proper strawbale building. <br><br>I am looking into any ideas for a fast track building process of a straw bale small house or efficient starage for using them and keeping them dry for next year. <br>
<br>so far my considerations are : <br><br>Building a plywood covered deck over few rows of gabions for foundation walls. <br>stacking two semi-circular walls , shifted ( have seen such house somewhere on the net ) now here the issue is with the size - what would be the minimum diameter for a round (in plan ) wall to be stable )? <br>
Building a continuous bond-beam on top and reciprocal roof structure. <br>covering with cheap vinil / tarp on top . <br><br>Well depending on time we may get it rendered with mud on both sides before the winter. <br><br>However if we leave it for the winter with bare strawbales - is this a major problem and how to prevent it from soaking moisture ? <br>
<br>Peace and prosperity <br><br clear="all">_____________________________<br>Martin Mikush<br>+359 877786118<br><a href="http://alchemyarch.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">http://alchemyarch.wordpress.com/</a><br>ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ<br>
