I understand that its very tough to get a papercrete building approved in many locations because of the lack of recognition in building codes.
However, I am not sure what the lack of building code support prevents you from doing. I understand that using it to support a load is out of the question, but I am not sure to what extent it could be used in non load bearing situations.
Assuming you go with a traditional style of house construction, could a solid papercrete wall replace the siding, insulation and drywall without interference from the building code ?
Could it replace some and not others. Certainly a 18 inch wall would meet the insulation requirements of the area I live (Ontario), but would its R value be considered because the the lack of standards and testing ?
