[GSBN] 7story SB buildings in France

[asbn]

Dear Andrè

Great, strawbale goes scraping the sky:-)

As I don't speak french, can you tell me
* what are the blue pastic-buttons in the wall (for measurement?)
* what about the load transfer of the modules, are they just fixed on  
the KLH-board (cross laminated timber-box)?
* do you know, did they only cut the strings of the bales or did they  
fill in loose straw as well to avoid gaps?

all the best
from an interested Austrian
