Link to the Show / Show NotesWelcome to the March 2007 "Building Green" podcast. This is my monthly Q&A session where I answer your green building and straw bale construction questions. Sorry it has been so long since I uploaded a Q & A podcast. I have been super busy putting together a brand new Load Bearing production and writing a straw bale construction field manual.
This month I answer the following questions:
- Are you limited to just stucco on the outside and plaster on the inside for a strawbale house, or can you use wood siding or brick on the outside and inside? Is there a system to attach wood siding to the bales rather than plaster?
- Can you use shotcreet or stucco blowers on the walls instead of hand trowelled plaster?
- What’s your advice on finding local lenders who can help with straw bale?
- Do straw bale houses have to be rectangular? How about an octagon?
