[GSBN] Straw on edge with stick (stud) frame

Hi Jacob

Thanks for the response.

I have been experimenting with a version of this technique myself, and I principally wanted to find out if:

1)    I was using someone else’s ‘protected’ design.

2)    It might feature in an upcoming academic paper, and I wanted to know who to reference as the originator.

The post that I saw had a photo of a demonstration wall section and a couple of SketchUp drawings – Was that you?

Cheers,

Jim

Hi Jim,

We've been doing this technique for a few years now, in a few different ways. We coined a term "StrawCell" to describe the hybrid system, a web search for that term should turn up a few blog posts and videos. I'm not sure if I was the originator of the post, as others have been using this technique as well, but I'd be happy to chat further.

Cheers,
Jacob

Hello

A couple of years ago details of a bale wall system using bales on edge against a stick frame were posted here.
I can’t find the original post, and would like to contact the originators of the idea.
Can anyone out there help?
