[Strawbale] Loadbearing Strawbale Plans

[bruno vierstraete]

> Hi everyone,
> we are planning our first small strawbale project: a 'barn', working room/guest house... (5 by 6m)
> With this mail I would like to show you my temporary plans and ask for suggestions. Since we are in the planning phase, I am very interested in any comments on the bale construction. Do you think, the plans look realistic towards bearing capacity? Isn't the window in the front to big to keep the building stable? Should we plan a more symmetrical cottage? etc...
> Thanks for any comments and pushing my confidence towards the actual building!
