<font face="Arial"><span style="font-size:9pt">Hi Luc and Andre,<br>
<br>
The proposed appendix can be downloaded from EBNet's website at: <a href="http://www.ecobuildnetwork.org/strawbale-construction-code-supporting-documentation">http://www.ecobuildnetwork.org/strawbale-construction-code-supporting-documentation</a><br>
<br>
The web page also includes numerous supporting documents for the proposal.<br>
<br>
The proposed appendix does allow plastered strawbale walls to be load-bearing and/or to be used as shear walls.<br>
<br>
HOWEVER, although this committee approval is huge, the proposed appendix is not yet part of the IRC. There is still a Public Comment period, and a Final Action Hearing in October. The chicken is not yet fully hatched, though we’re cautiously optimistic. More details later.<br>
<br>
