[Cob] New to the List (one more thing)

[phil]

I should point out as well that every naturally built home that receives a permit makes it that much easier for the next person who wants to build with cob or some other earthen material. Down the road all that effort at staying within the law may lead to natural building methods being proscribed in code.

Hello,<br><br>I'm new to the list, interested in alternative building materials etc. <br>My goal right now is to find some land and probably start building a cob <br>house. Of course I have alot of questions, but was wondering how many <br>out there that have Cob houses actually contacted there county building <br>inspectors etc, and tried to follow building codes? Is this necessary?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Owen<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Coblist mailing list<br>Coblist at deatech.com<br>http://www.deatech.com/mailman/listinfo/coblist<br>
