[Cob] non-building code areas

[D.J. Henman]

They will let you build if you have a civil engineer look over and 
approval the structual integrity of your plans, in probably any place in 
the U.S.     Also, you might come off to the officials as a person who 
doesn't know what you're talking about, building wise and that would 
cause negative to you responses.  It might be better to have an engineer 
or some person with building experience to do the querying for you in 
the future.   Having an in-between you and the departmetn could help.    
This is only a suggestion.
