Wow ! So awesome ❤🎉

[@Olhamo]

I always fantasized, wished for a straw bale house, which was the MOST beautiful energy to be inside, when I first was, while one was being built in Quebec, Canada.. The wide windowsills, the width of a bale, etc. Just heavenly and so still and grounded. This looks like it must feel that good. Now I really want to learn how. A little concerned that it seems to require so much wood...i love wood, but...trees. I wonder if there is another way to do it without so much wood framing. Ah, just had a flash: bamboo! it’s far more sustainable, maybe. hmm. it’s about using what is near you, also.... thinking out loud, after having heard the gorgeous heart-centred words form Souverein, River and Imani today, this morning.

[@roiad876]

once you reach the top of the walls do you just start packing and tampering the hempcrete sideways and upwards instead of down? always been curious about that.

[@George-of8ib]

Very interesting. What are the foundations made from? And do they need to be as deep if the building on top is going to be lighter?

[@ushemphurd]

Thank you so much for the video, can you please give in details the layers for the ceiling? And if we have an intermediate floor what should we put in it.

Hi there.. You can email us at [e-mail] many thanks..

@@havenearthpma Thank you for the post but it would much better if you add narration explaining the details of how it was built instead of the music IMHO... All the best...

@@havenearthpma thx for the feedback..... did not know it was also Off the Grid... ironically just watched a post about "Off the Grid Solar" experience (from it believe it or not a respected car channel).... here is the link to it... kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZOum52tjKeKjZI

[@alina24499]

How much did it cost? It's so lovely!

[@havenearthpma]

This one was a custom home build and had many elements that are not so typical, like the hand crafted reclaimed oak roof trusses. The overall cost of this home was approx. $280,000. We have many design options for similar size Hemp structures that would cost considerably less. We are also providing Hemp Building training, and much more.

[@johnassal5838]

@@havenearthpma I can see the attraction for those old oak beams but couldn't you replicate 99% of the effect by cladding new posts in reclaimed barn wood boards?

[@havenearthpma]

They were reclaimed from the clients great great granfathers barn in Kentucky. He was pretty set on using them for he trusses. Why cut down new when this timber was part of his family heritage from eons ago.. I see what youre sayign though, but in this case the real deal was the best an most practical solution. @@johnassal5838

[@fredmertz1791]

This is a wood frame house that supports the loads..

Neil Young is running your video FYI

[@Viki1808]

how long did the total build take?

[@inzenjerduje9391]

Is foundation made with cement or hempcrete ?

[@havenearthpma]

In this case we used a concrete slab foundation based on California Building codes.

[@Emily-cl4vm]

So it's not necessary to use magnesium oxide or other dry wall?

[@havenearthpma]

It's a person preference, as long as it's a breathable material, like lime based plaster, the mag board is not necessary.

[@nc3826]

Emily: The most common finish is a lime or clay base plaster... There many posts that show the ratios used to make it and how it is applied. Good luck... BTW most "drywall" use a paper coating over the gypsum, which promotes mold, especially if it would be unadvisedly used to cover Hempcrete. That is design to safely absorb some of the excess moisture in the air of the house and release it when the air is dry....

[@paulatarver-prof]

Do you have to apply a lime plaster when finished? Dues the hempcrete deteriorate on the weather? I loved the layer lines.

HEMP HOUSE PLANET HEMP BOB BURNISQUIST!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hermit9852]

One of the most important points of using in hempcrete is allows us to get away from stick frame construction. This is not the best way to make use of hempcrete.

[@amorphous14]

God that music almost kicked of my period. im a guy....

[@havenearthpma]

We'll try harder next time.. ;-)

[@onecompass7290]

I don't understand all the wood framing. Hempcrete blocks make framing unnecessary according to everything I've watched. Your house can burn down due to all the extremely flamable wood framing. Your fire risk went from nearly nil to extremely high.

[@mazieways]

Bldg codes in most places don’t yet allow hemp as load bearing, so until them it may be approved as infill in framed walls…

[@motionbytom1885]

If its a cold country then the wood will allow for insulation and also, the roof will always needs a frame.

[@rickyc711]

hempcrete is not load bearing, so the wood framing is needed. Also most is behind the hempcrete so it is protected.

[@barrbudo]

Hempcrete isn't structural.
