This workshop focuses on energy-efficient, green building techniques using standard stick frame construction with advanced framing for energy efficiency. The goal is to learn everything you need to complete the exterior weatherproof shell but does not include interior finishing.
It will also touch on alternative building techniques like slip straw, straw bale, timber framing, SIPS panels, cob, compressed earth block, cordwood construction, underground housing, and more. You can save thousands by building yourself and customized exactly how you want!
Instructors: Harvey Harman, Nathan Huening, Godi Godar
