12. Hempcrete Thermal Home System
Replaces – Drywall, insulation, exterior boarding, house wrap, siding, caulk and paint.
Simple post and beam frame system that is easier to build and stronger than conventional stick frame.
The thermal wall system lessens thermal bridging and other air infiltration because of its monolithic nature.
It is used for a superior wall, floor and overhead installations.
Creates a bio-based, more comfortable, less toxic, easier to heat, cool and maintain structure for home, work and play.

21. Building Professionals
Speak the language- architects, engineers, planning dept., building department.
Explain that the system is bio-based and used and tested extensively in overseas and some in America.
Explain that the system is superior. And that most things stay the same. Same solid structure, same rough in specifics except minor changes.
Explain using pictures or a sample wall system like we will make in our hands on workshops.

22. R104.11 Alternative materials, design and methods of construction and equipment.
The provisions of this code are not intended to prevent the installation of any material or to prohibit any design or method of construction not specifically prescribed by this code, provided that any such alternative has been approved. An alternative material, design or method of construction shall be approved where the building official finds that the proposed design is satisfactory and complies with the intent of the provisions of this code, and that the material, method or work offered is, for the purpose intended, at least the equivalent of that prescribed in this code. Compliance with the specific performance-based provisions of the International Codes in lieu of specific requirements of this code shall also be permitted as an alternate.

23. USDA Bio-preferred program
The federal government is demanding more bio-based products.
We are currently in research and development to meet this demand.
