Читать книгу How to Build a Global Model Earthship Operation II: Concrete Work - Michael Reynolds - Страница 3

Introduction

Operation Two covers the concrete and steel strength of the building. For a two bedroom Earthship, 20 people can stay busy and accomplish more, taking advantage of the “group effort”.

As with any construction project, there are many things going on at once. This book is meant to be a step by step guide, therefore, it is important to follow these directions and proceed accordingly, step-by-step.

This guide and the Global Model Earthship itself is the result of over 40 years of research and development, both in the field and ‘on the drawing board’ - all over the world, in every climate. Many books and videos are available that were produced during this forty years of development. It is advisable to become familiar with them all.

DISCLAIMER: Codes vary from state to state, county to county and city to city. The required inspections needed (per your local Planning Department) will vary according to the location of your build. The required building techniques (i.e. width/depth of footings, placement of bond beams, etc.) may also vary in order to meet code depending on your location and soil conditions.
