EBC: Framing and Sheathing
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- The Earth Berm Cottage (EBC) is an earth sheltered tiny house with a living roof that we're in the process of building.
In this video we take the cottage from the sill plates to the roof decking. The front (non-bermed) wall incorporates a double stud wall to prevent thermal bridging and provide a better mechanical key for the light clay straw infill.
There's also some hefty beams that if I did my math right should be support a lightweight living roof without a problem.

Great work…congratulations on the French drain beneath the foundations, so often neglected in natural building circles.
Thanks! I could see a french drain not be as necessary in warmer climates on a well drained site but it's so easy and inexpensive install during foundation prep I wouldn't skimp.
