\n

\"\"<\/a>Unit 1: Introduction in Straw Bale Building<\/h4>\n

We start with a general introduction into history and status-quo of Straw Bale Building. there is a lot to learn about the building material (straw bales) itself:\u00a0Procurement, production, quality assessment, testing, handling, storage \u2026 The tools are presented and partly self-made (stuffers) + Safety on Straw Building Sites.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3 days Theory & Practice<\/strong>: \u20ac 250,\u2013\/Person; \u20ac 180,\u2013 for Students<\/em>
\nPartner-price: Your partner just pays the reduced students-price!<\/em><\/p>\n

Language: English\/German, Date: March 19-21, 2021, Start: Friday 12:00, 3720 Ravelsbach, Baierdorf 6
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>Unit 2: Straw Bale-Infill, CUT-Technique, Prefab<\/h4>\n

We get to know the different wood frame construction methods: Wooden constructions (CUT in the middle, CUT supporting planking, double post) are infilled with straw bales without gaps (infill = filling in), prefabricated wooden straw components (panels) assembled professionally. Bales are cut, tied and\/or efficiently compressed in the walls. In the practical workshop, a detached house in timber frame construction is filled with straw bales and then (in the second half) plastered with clay (and lime). We show how windows are sealed with flax and sealing tapes, how electrical cables are laid in straw bale walls and how details are executed correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n

10-12 days Theory & Practice:<\/strong> \u20ac 850,\u2013\/Person; \u20ac 610,\u2013 <\/em>for Students
\nPartner-price: Your partner\/friend just pays the reduced students-price!<\/em><\/p>\n

Language: English\/German, Date: March 22 – April 3, 2021, (second option for Practical U2: July 9-17), Start: Monday 12:00, 3720 Ravelsbach, Baierdorf 6
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>Unit 3: Load-bearing straw bale building<\/h4>\n

The initial straw building (Nebraska style) does not need any supporting construction for walls, the (plastered) straw bales itself are \u201eload-bearing\u201c. Wood is used for protection and support (base plate, roof assembly, window frames), structural integrity (ring beam) as well as for additional construction. In theory, we handle the preparation and selection of the right bales, statics, the construction schedule and construction of load-bearing straw bale houses.<\/span> In the practical workshop, a sample building with small bales is built load-bearing.<\/p>\n

7 days Theory & Practice:<\/strong> \u20ac 590,\u2013\/Person; \u20ac 420,\u2013 <\/em>for Students
\nPartner-price: Your partner\/friend just pays the reduced students-price!<\/em><\/p>\n

Language: English\/German, Date: May 1 – 7, 2021, Start: Saturday 12:00, 3720 Ravelsbach, Baierdorf 6 (practice in Ravelsbach or Gm\u00fcnd)
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>Unit 4: Wrapping \u2013 External Straw Insulation<\/h4>\n

In \u201ewrapping\u201c buildings are all around covered with straw bales or flakes (the layers of bales). We show 6 different wrapping possibilities for insulation thicknesses from 15 cm with diagonal bracing, planks, pallets, battens and facade boards. We learn how to make an additional foundation and set up an auxiliary construction, as well as the professional attachment and the windproof design.<\/span>
\nIn the practical workshop, walls will be wrapped with flakes and\/or straw bales and plastered (in a separate workshop) with lime or planked with wooden cladding (U5).<\/p>\n

4+5 days Theory & Practice:<\/strong> \u20ac 760,\u2013\/Person; \u20ac 550,\u2013 for Students
\nPartner-price: Your partner\/friend just pays the reduced students-price!<\/em><\/p>\n

Language: English\/German, Date: May 20 – 28, 2021, Start: Thursday 12:00, 3720 Ravelsbach, Baierdorf 6
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"Unit 5: Finishes (Clay-, Lime Plasters, Wood Cladding, Installations)<\/h4>\n

Only the most meticulously designed surfaces prevent structural or moisture damage in the long term, especially in diffusion open building construction. Material knowledge (clay, lime plaster), as well as a lot of practice from base plaster to fine plaster, from air- to windproofing, characterize this unit.
\nIn the practical workshop we plaster with clay (earth) and lime, manual plastering is shown as well as spray plaster and some decorations (COB). You will learn to fix reed-stucco as plaster-ground as well as making connections to windows and posts. And you will also learn how to make installations (electric, wall heating, water) on straw bale walls – in the plaster.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\"bauphysik\"Unit 6: Building Physics & Sustainability<\/h4>\n

The knowledge of the building physical properties of building materials is an indispensable basis for their optimal use. It is thermal bridges, mould, moisture (condensation) \u2026 to recognize and avoid. We treat the subjects of thermal insulation, fire protection, sound insulation, moisture protection and heating and calculate and optimize straw construction according to their required properties. We show how sustainability, wellbeing and a healthy indoor climate can be implemented in a straw bale house.<\/span><\/p>\n

5 days Theory & Practice:<\/strong> \u20ac 420,\u2013\/Person; \u20ac 300,\u2013 for Students
\nPartner-price: Your partner\/friend just pays the reduced students-price!<\/em><\/p>\n

Language: English\/German, Date: August 2 – 8, 2021, Start: Monday 12:00, 3720 Ravelsbach, Baierdorf 6<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>Unit 7: Solar Architecture and Design<\/h4>\n

The principle of \u201estraw construction\u201c: You learn to read plans and to implement construction plans and learn how construction, insulation, electrics, water, building services and heating \u2026 interact. With a straw construction overview, you prevent building defects and repair building damage and keep the budget within limits. We also show how organic straw bale building is possible and how to save on building costs. With practical workshop planning of a straw bale house (in Sketchup), videos and discussions.<\/span><\/p>\n

5 days Theory & Practice:<\/strong> \u20ac 420,\u2013\/Person; \u20ac 300,\u2013 for Students

\n

\"marketing-kommunikation\"Unit 8: Communication & Cost Calculation<\/h4>\n

Market knowledge improves your bargaining position, knowledge of suppliers and prices enables costing. We show (open-source) tools and software for self-presentation (CI), administration and successful (social media) appearance. The basis of everything is communication and knowledge about target groups, other craftsmen (networking) and suppliers (where can I get what?). We show how the price of a straw bale house can be estimated, calculated and communicated. And explain the differences between soft and hard costs and show savings.<\/span><\/p>\n
