Cob: cob and cordwoodKim West kwest at arkansas.netFri Feb 28 06:19:58 CST 2003
Was wondering if it is possible to build a structure where the first 3-4 feet are cordwood, then the remaining height of the structure is cob? Or, if one were to build a cob structure with a cordwood addition, what would be the proper way to connect the two materials without problems due to differing shrinkage and settling rates? Anyone here had any experience building cob/cordwood hybrids?
