Sketch(up)s V03! - Final Wall

Some tweaks to make the wall a bit less wide.


VERSION 03 - Final


Still retaining an air gap, but letting the earthbags do the work on their own. This allows for only 1 stud frame.


Profile depth - 400- 460mm. (will depend on how wide we want the air gap (40-100mm)
Thoughts - A reduced profile makes for a more usable wall. Think we are on the money with this now.

What now?
Well we have the Earthbags filled and the frame constructed. So we now need to identify what we still need to complete the wall, and start putting all the elements together. Still required:
- Window frame
- Window glass*
- Plasterboard
- Render*
- Wire mesh
- Flashing
- Foil

Then we need to look at the roof!...

  2. I think I can source the following:
    Window frame, plasterboard, wire mesh, flashing and foil.

    So that will leave us still needing something to act as glass, and render. And perhaps some sealant for the glass in the frame?
