=> sad to hear that you could not continue your project and glad to
hear your passioned involvement in papercrete. It is new to me and
search the archives for all the info i can get my eyes on. I am living
in Aruba where using PC also can give some struggle. The traditional
building style is concrete blocks. Even wooden structures are not
officially permitted for permanent use. So i plan to start
experimenting with PC in "add on" non structural components and in the
decorative use of it.
I was wondering if it is usefull to start a chapter or thread on how
to present PC based plans to the authorities, based on experiences and
ideas from the PC community, as every plan is useless when it does
not get approval. I understand that in your country there are lots of
different building codes. In Aruba we are somewhat blessed by the lack
of codes.
