I didn't take any photos of it but it is in there, I also found a novel use for wire hangers, they work very well for wall ties. I placed them on the OSB wall 16" OC and on the corner post every other course. I'm in Oklahoma and was the Code Enforcement Officer for the city before I was promoted to Consruction Manager. Papercrete as an infill for a Post Constructed building is permitted.
I have a question for the group, has anyone ever poured a wall with an arch? I want to make my entire North wall a series of arch windows and one arch passage opening.
