[GSBN] Light Straw fire test?

[Alex Cicelsky (Kibbutz Lotan)]

Dear Friends,

a. We're posting a series of YouTube videos with step by step documentation on how to construct the earthquake-proof (should I be humble towards Mama Earth and say earthquake-resistant?) strawbale dome-atories in our EcoCampus.
#1 How to Build a Geodesic Strawbale Dome - dome manufacture<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAaAqqRoEKQ>  KibbutzLotan<http://www.youtube.com/user/KibbutzLotan> 13 videos

b. Do any of you know of formal fire rating testing and results for "light straw"?  I'd like to have an idea of what to expect before we begin Standards Institute of Israel material testing on 8 and 40 cm light straw wall panels.

Thanks - Alex
