[Cob] Retrofit cob infill.Rudy Nunez cobjobber at yahoo.comMon Jul 26 18:31:03 CDT 2004
Greetings! I am new to the coblist. I came recently from Natural Building Colloquium East and I am ready to start cobbing up the interior walls of my barn in upstate NY. I am looking at 2x6 studs, 24" oncenter. Does anyone have experience with "cob retrofit"? Do I have to worry about wooden members bending due to wind thus cracking my cobjob? Also, I would like to fill my cob walls with about 4" of straw between courses. Will I have less moisture problems than with a strawbale wall? Your responses much appreciated. -Rudy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo! Mail - Send 10MB messages! http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
