[Strawbale] French SB Network is looking for official european SB tests

[forum at lamaisonenpaille...]

Hoi Peter,

All certified tests/data.
> And for what use: load-bearing and/or infill?

These 'building codes' (Règles Professionnels) will only validate the 
use of non structural SB infil that can hold earth and/or lime plaster. 
But that does not mean we are not interested in other validated testing 
(nor does it mean that loadbearing is not alowed, it is just more 
difficult to get the the professional builder insured)

kind regards,
André
