[papercreters] Papercrete and Earthships Question/Banking Education

In pursuing the papercrete house in Rodeo, we got a quick education in
the field of acceptable housing (to the banking institutions). Now,
more determined than before, we have found an alternative property.
From the posts here I've learned just what can be done with a single
wide trailer, papercrete and tires.... the single wide trailer would
satisfy the banks definition of a house. The property we found has a
straw bale barn and a "Earthship foundation".... Can you papercrete
the bazillion tires in those walls?
I am learning a lot from this group and there's a whole bunch of
technical stuff that I will have to keep plugging at but I'm
determined to papercrete and live in my work before I get too old. The
second half of the question.... can we put a single wide trailer
someplace in the tire walls (it would be recycled if we bought a used
one) and incorporate them all into one paper crete building?
Thanks,
Clarissa
