[Strawbale] waterproofing the bathroom

[Kester Wilkinson]

I don’t know the answer but I can tell you what I did – I finished
plastering the wall then erected marine plywood at least 50mm from the
wall using the ringbeam as a fixing and then tiled onto that .

HI!
I am thinking of putting panels of  pladur or knauf (a type of cement
board) covered with tiles in the bathroom to protect the bales from the
water of the shower (not yet installed), but i was wondering if I should
put a layer of plaster under the board? Also, should I leave an air
space between  the board and the bale wall, or should they touch? Does
it matter?  
any comments or alternative ideas are appreciated; I haven´t started the
work there yet, so I  am open to other suggestions  . . .


MAY THE wings OF LIBERTY NEVER LOSE A SINGLE FEATHER! 
love , RIKKI
