[GSBN] FASBA: New German Approval for strawbuilding, 5-storey SB- building unveiled

[M. Oehlmann]

structure in Recklinghausen 18 years ago together with Harald Wedig. One of
the endexamination questions in France for the baccalauréat 2014 was: How
many strawbales do you need to build a house with the given measurements ;-)
