[GSBN] GSBN Digest, Vol 17, Issue 7

[Bohdan]

Hi Ian

No I haven’t heard of that group.

I was aware that there were some groups involved in S/B construction.

After all Ukraine does produce a lot of wheat and straw!

 

My thoughts were that if there were workshops on producing S/B panels – that may be a fast way of rebuilding?

 

Also wondering whether some form of straw bale panels may be retrofitted to the front facades of the many damaged apartment buildings ( where they are still structurally stable?) 

 

Kind Regards,
Bohdan

Hi all,

 

A client shared a video with me earlier this year of some folks doing prefab straw panels in Ukraine.  You can search Youtube for "Ecos Group" and find a series of videos by them.  I checked their web address and it's down... hope they're all right.

 

It doesn't stop there though... Here are some great shirt-less natural building videos:

Bohdan, have you ever heard of any of these folks?

Hi Matts,

I'm guessing that Rob West <rob at newsociety.com <mailto:rob at newsociety.com> > would be willing to send 
along PDF versions of any of the straw-bale related books from New 
Society to help out.

I'm cc'ing him here...

Glad to know you're still investing in funancial endeavours!

Chris
