[GSBN] SB in IGCC

[janet johnston]

THANKS so much David, Martin, and everyone involved! This further
"legitimacy" helps so much. 

 

Our whole local building department was laid-off, so even though I have been
working with straw in this county since 1998 (or at least trying to get the
first project passed since then), I am submitting this project (YAY- one is
actually making it to submittal at least!) to an unknown quantity.
Ironically, I think I left a message (about another code issue) last week
for one of the ICC engineers (Kermit Robinson)from LA. His message said he
was at the hearings- so I assume he was a juror.   

 

Your patience and persistence is appreciated by all!!!! -Janet

David Eisenberg just posted to FaceBook: "I'm in Chicago at the
International Green Construction Code code development hearings and Martin
Hammer's 'comment' on behalf of the California Straw Building Assoc. to
incorporate straw bale construction into this new code was approved by the
committee as submitted by a vote of 8 to 6!!!"
