Their current engineering was provided by someone unfamiliar with straw bale building and is coming up pretty short of being a low carbon, sustainable, or natural design.  So we are moving to a straw cell design to help ease any engineering and building official concerns about the straw bale part.  My question is-- does anyone have a good straw cell wall detail drawing they can point me to or donate to the effort?
