Straw Bale work on eco-building in St.Anns Part 28

Tash [alan lodge] | 04.06.2008 22:43 | Ecology | Free Spaces

Work has been continuing at EcoWorks with the Straw Bale building in Nottingham. The building is now fully enclosed [short of the main doors]. Window frames have been fitted in the main part of the building and now in the kitchen extension.






















Work has been continuing at EcoWorks with the Straw Bale building in Nottingham. The building is now fully enclosed [short of the main doors]. Window frames have been fitted in the main part of the building and now in the kitchen extension.

You'll see the hessian 'sacking' still loose around some of the frames. This is so when the rendering is applied around the frames, that it will 'key' on the smooth wood surfaces below, and help create the seal required.

So, dear readers, if you have enjoyed watching the progress of this building being constructed ..... how about getting out from behind your computer screen, and get up to EcoWorks in the new year, and volunteer your services.

All could have been done a lot earlier, if a bunch of 'already-skilled' people had just got on with it. But, it was generally descided that by involving many volunteers, folks might go away, and having been inspired by the project, and with a bit of hands-on experience ....... have ideas and help others think about what they could do with other sustainable projects in their own areas.


*****

Ecoworks is on the Hungerhills allotment site, reached off Ransom Road, St.Anns .....
If needed, they can provide transport from the city centre by arrangement. Ring Tim on 07719 428187 for more info.
Hot drinks supplied; please bring your lunch.
