Today's Question:

We get questions daily about Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture , so here is an open letter to you the Future Georgia Adobe Home Owner.

 

First , Thank you for your interest in Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture !

 

A Georgia Adobe is often considered experimental, by those not familiar with alternatives to conventional construction , yet we believe our methods will become the standard of the future. In fact every part of our structures wall system is drawn upon an ages old and tested process called Rammed Earth.

Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture can work with our clients, to get almost any structure fully permitted and completely built, yet the cost to fight a governments interference , over an alternative construction process and work within the governments “building codes” may adversely impact a projects budget & at least to the point of some frustrations. Time lost, is also money lost and below, we will try to further explain the process to you, the future Georgia Adobe Home Owner.

Know this also, if what you require is a complete turn key & finished home or commercial structure with everything done for you in the Georgia Adobe way, then we can provide this to you or if you wish we can just assist and simply consult you through the all the parts of new construction process, allowing you to do the work but where you need help on some parts . Also we can work with you in the remodeling of an existing building too.

A Georgia Adobe is basically a machine that provides you with most all of what is required to live in a home after its construction and we can fully plan and install all the mechanical parts of an alternative fueling & energy system for your building & transportation needs too, so you can be totally off grid. Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture may be thought of as a company combination of Systemsist, Architects , Engineers, Plumbers, Electricians , Energy Systems Creationist and Alternative Builders,  in short called Ecoitects combining Ecology and Architecture, into useful structures that are a benefit to the owner & not a burden to your pocketbook.

 

Our current intro packet is online at our web site :

georgiaadobe.com

and the web site explains the steps involved in some construction projects and it is also enhanced at our companies blog pages including at our Facebook notes. Each new builder has their own ideas or special needs and many can become incorporated, into a Georgia Adobe Home, all of course depending upon the integrity of the Georgia Adobe structure, where your building the home, the difficulty of that project and your own budget constraints.

 

Building for themselves their own home is how most new builders may start, but a smaller project is often wiser in the beginning, just to get the feel of the work. For clients of Georgia Adobe, we allow volunteers to join us on our projects; this may enhance their construction skills when publicly available projects or previous agreements allow us to do so.  You may also wish to read about basic Rammed Earth Construction first, just to familiarize yourself with the process of this style of construction .  Also, acting as your own general contractor , for your project is best, as this will put you in total control of your cost.  We think this is the best way for many individuals  to save the most money.  While cost will very with each situation , a common cost to build out a 1000 square foot conventionally constructed home, may be in the $100 to $200 dollars per square foot range, when finished . These cost are also the same for the alternative Georgia Adobe builder, if you hire out everything and all will depend on the locations restraints, the plans, your finishing choices and systems required to make the project work ,etc.

 

If you do most everything yourself, and you have readily available , the required materials to build with ( including the free, the recycled & the purchased materials ) all harvested before construction starts, much money can be saved if you’re a wise shopper and thus the project become a prepaid factor, before you start. By searching for bargains & safely warehousing your materials, prior to constructions start the highest use of your time can be made from day 1. We have seen some proper choices and projects save the builders much as 90 %,  through their extreme efforts , but perhaps a 50% materials savings could be more common and also by removing outside laborers lowers cost as well does using free & recycled materials. All this depends upon you & your abilities if you do it yourself !

 

Several years of waiting to start a construction project is a long time in today's world and not a wise move . Your swift actions today, will often reward you financially,  if you can begin by good locations choices , before codes become a problem. So much is changing quickly today, to literally cheat us all out of our ability and freedom to build for ourselves , let alone to live freely afterwards, in something we built ourselves, especially if its totally off grid. Thus, unless you first want to comply with more & more codes – go and find yourself a location to build on,  that has as few as possible restraints on you .

 

An example of bad location to build in might be, those where your required to buy a construction permit to build , or to be inspected at each step of construction, or to pay for in advance public utility connections , even though a Georgia Adobe doesn’t require public utilities and perhaps to file those permits, for the public utilities before your construction permit application, will be viewed by the permit office - let alone actually become permitted.  If you have a set of plans drawn ( which is required for permits ) , permitting offices may then also require you prove certain steps of your building process with certified tests if your building with what they consider to be alternative methods . Perhaps engineered stamped drawings are required, through an extended permitting process, may be required and additional inspections too, all of which cost time, & may cost you more money than what may have been planned. This all must be worked out before starting where governments get involved .

 

This is where more pre-planning of the locations selection and any prep-work possible, becomes beneficial to the builder. Thus, the best practice is to start today - Not Later and find a location that allows you more freedoms to build & to live freely afterwards , and one has as few rules and hoops for you to jump through to get to the finished project. The locations choice being thus the first project for you the general contractor, may also then allow you to continue to legally start your construction today, with  completion time requirements,  that come without future building & code restrictions.

 

Hiring Georgia Adobe to assist with the entire process including location selection is easy and you can begin today at cost as low as $75. Per fifteen minute online consultation sessions. Also you should contact Joe Woodall personally first at Georgia Adobe headquarters at sales@georgiaadobe.com to start your consultation process or just call Joe at 706-363-6453 for a free telephone conversation, to help you decide what is right for you !

 

Happy Building !

 

  The Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture Blog is an adjunct to the Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture web pages & the Georgia Adobe University Of Ecoitecture. Here readers may ask questions & discuss the proper ways to volunteer for a Georgia Adobe ( open to the public project ) or perhaps how to attend the next self sustainable class at The University Of Ecoitecture, Obtain Certification to build Georgia Adobe Structures for profit  or for their own personal use as a new home , by utilizing the independent self-sustainable Georgia Adobe Ecoitectural method.

http://video.pbs.org/video/1088152802

C.) Now then, we all can't afford these pneumatic tools , so what is to be done ? Perhaps a low tech method, is more in line with your abilities- well that works too. Notice in this video how utterly thin this gentleman's walls are - ( way too thin for load bearing ) ! Think 24" for all load bearing applications, but watch his work and you will get an idea of how you might could apply the hand built technique, to your project. Additionally notice the form material used , was Plywood - not steel forms , thus this begins the thought process - that construction of Rammed Earth can be constructed at an affordable price and with common tools ! His Tamping is slow yet steady, ( needs a little more in 1 or 2 places perhaps but ) the Tool can be home built inexpensively from a milk jug or a coffee can perhaps, with a old broom handle laced with some small nails placed into one end and then all this is poured into the jug with Portland cement, to make for a good home made tamp. One wants a hard finish when tamping so don't be afraid to tamp it well in each location working back and forth until a ring sound is heard ! Try this over the weekend and build yourself a low knee wall for your garden , as an experiment. This should give you a good idea of, how hard the work will be. For your soil - what do you use ? Try using the traditional mix first 70% sand, 30% sifted clay ( nothing over 3/8 think pieces ) and when your finished, as this is not stabilized with Portland Cement , you will need to stucco the wall with Portland cement to seal it. Be sure and raise up your knee wall starting location with stone at least 4 inches above the water run off point. so as to not cause undue wear from rain events. ( Note in home construction you will want 8" above that point ! ) If you wish to make your walls more water resistant add 5% Portland to the mix and mix it well into your dry soil before placement into a wall form. Then Start tamping it into place. Share some of your experiment photos with the group so we will all see your progress and feel free to ask any questions above in the comment section. . <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/WTTHGrGmrKA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Now class, if you can afford steel forms and pneumatic tools, your a step ahead financially than most - yet, if you kept your money and used free materials the Next Wedge #3 is found in - (Free Materials). Tires Can Become Permanent Wall Forms for Rammed Earth Construction and tires provide the user with a a 24 inch thick, Rammed Earth Brick Wall - when properly compacted with Earth.

Free Soda Cans and Glass Drinking Bottles could also become "forms" when laid double thick in a Portland Cement Matrix, so as to retain your "wall in-fill" and the in-fill rammed into place or poured as with concrete bond beams needed on top of a Rammed Earth wall final layer. This then becomes the mechanical section when the roof will connect to the wall. Even empty, and cleaned drinking bottles (both plastic and glass ) could become light giving "Windows" when for example, a glass-wall is laid, as a brick wall would be - 1 glass bottle at a time in a Concrete Matrix (for sturdy walls).

Should you have a thick wall that could be wire wrapped and stuccoed over , sometimes a Mortar made of Site Earth ( just like your walls of Rammed Earth are built from ) can be your Mortar in place of Concrete ( thus saving money in that extra purchase ) but some advance engineering may be required to do this and that's a bit more than I can go into in this writing.

CLASS QUESTION TIME : What other Free Materials can you find to reuse in the construction of a home ? LIST YOUR THOUGHTS IN THE COMMENTS SECTION, WHERE QUESTIONS ARE REQUESTED FOR THIS TUTORIAL !

 NOTE : The Tire Stores might even pay you to remove their old tires or at least you can pick and choose the ones you want . Most when pressed, will pay $1 to $2 each ( as that they are already paying this to companies who contract to remove them ), so you could potentially be paid to gather your Free Materials, to build your walls from ! In these next 2 quick videos you will see how some Owner-Builders designed their own building or borrowed designs from others and built homes and found success with Tire Walls, Bottle Windows And More !

Our house is constructed from trash. It is a monolithic building constructed from old tires, cans, bottles, and lots of earth.



Tire Houses www.youtube.com These houses were built in Mexico out of used tires, plastic bottles, and adobe. AMMAC is working to build houses like these in the poor districts called "Tire Houses"

The Next Lesson:

Wedge #4   The Passive Solar House Design
&
Wedge #5 Natural Ventilation

Combining of all the “Wedges” is the way the Georgia Adobe Building System makes for an inexpensively built & operated structure. The above 2 design principals, are very important ones that low energy structures to function & they can only be replaced by energy driven devices with super insulation & lots of money spent to operate the structure, when they are not a part of the design.

Buildings with Insulated Thermal Mass (i.e. : dry water resistant Rammed Earth Walls), Earth Sheltered structures (with at least 5 feet of Earth against the walls of the building ), keeps the structure at about 58+/- degrees, year round without much effort or expense to the homeowners.

The Passive Solar Georgia Adobe designed building, is in Winter therefore heated mostly from free Solar gain, as the walls & masonry floors receive sunlight all during the day through the front windows, set in place at an angle to receive the most sun between 9 AM - 3 PM. In fact without Wintertime Ventilation some over heating, may occur. During the cold Winter evenings, no additional heat is normally required many nights after a 28 day period of Solar Charging the Insulated Thermal Mass, is completed. Conversely, During the hottest months of the year, this same Southern facing building design, will also allow your building, to cool itself a great deal without mechanical forced air systems, if the Passive Solar Design is combined with Passive Ventilation. Also, in the Winter the walls Insulated Thermal Mass will return the inside air temperature to the wall temperature, normally within about 20 minutes, after the Earth Tube’s & Ventilation is closed for the night.

The Sun in the Summer months, is higher in the sky causing lessened Insolation (direct solar gain). The Insulated Thermal Mass cools as it‘s not being constantly charged by deep penetrating sun & as that heat seeks cold, much of any warmer air entering the building, will exchange itself with the cooler wall temperature; thus helping to cool the air inside a building.

“Earth Tubes” are properly designed into the structure in a North To South orientation, & will cool the building naturally ventilating it of its excess moisture or any undesirable conditions such as Radon gas build ups, in areas prone to have those conditions.

Again, this combination of “Wedges” will most times keep your Georgia Adobe Structure cool in the Summer & Warm in the Winter much as if you had, a forced air system operating.

Thus, it turns out that, how one designs their building, points that building ( facing it Southward in Northern hemispheres ) , is just as important as the very materials one chooses to build with.

For more information on the basics of Passive Solar design please read: “Passive Solar Energy -- The Homeowner's Guide to Natural Heating and Cooling", by Bruce Anderson and Malcolm Wells” , these authors were some of the early pioneers credited with promoting the Earth Sheltered Home Industry in the early 20th century.

If you have been following along with the above material , you now should know enough to decide if you want traditional Adobe Or Rammed Earth Walls and if you care to take our suggestions, you may well choose Rammed Earth For The Majority Of The Exterior Walls. Windows & doors can be constructed on site from glass bottles laid ( small end to end & wide side out) as bricks becoming windows and doors can be poured from concrete and or Papercrete with a water resistant addition keeping all dry inside.

Just remember to build your openings mainly facing South ( in the Northern Hemispheres) add gutters to diminish water washing of any exposed surfaces and keep your walls insulated on the outside and the Thermal Mass side on the inside with a proper ventilation will provide you with a fine set of walls and a passive solar building ! Direct all clean water toward your fresh water tanks ( more on cisterns & water use later in this series ) .

Keep it high & dry is age old advice and this is surly true for Earth sheltered structures too. Dwellings are also best and least expensively constructed , when built above the ground, & then you bring the Earth over to them and berm the structures sides , with at least 5 feet of Earth ( this is for not for traditional R/E , but rather for permanently formed R/E). Any exposed surfaces should be sealed or Stuccoed to protect them and a sufficient overhang is required. Direction of traffic towards the East & West is often best with South facing structures and allows protection in the way of foyers to retain even temperatures inside , when doors are opened.

By building above ground, your Rammed Earth Home Sheltering is possible and without you having to dig a basement , risk water running into the dugout area before or during residency, or without actually living underground. 5 feet of Earth sheltering will do very nicely, providing most structures with enough weather protection, ( if insulated properly & Moisture Proofed properly too ! ) keeps sudden temperature changes from causing any discomfort to you, and with a good amount of "Solarization" , streaming into the structure , from the South facing windows. The thermal flywheel cycle , will work for you as the Insulated Thermal mass, can collect heat daily & release it slowly as the evening air cools the inside , thus moderating your indoor temperatures to comfortable levels. With the Earth staying at about 58 degrees year round ( in most elevations) if you had no sunlight at all , you would not have to add heat at more than 20 degrees, to bring the inside to 78 degrees in the Winter. In the Summer as that the Sun is high in the sky , it won’t penetrate your windows directly (nor as deeply) as in the Winter time thus allowing a general cooling inside and with proper ventilation , almost –0– air-conditioning will be required most times ( Southern States elevation humidity’s may change this somewhat ) & that Ventilation should go up through the roof on the South side, drawing from Earth Tubes ( Now Go Google That Term if you don’t know yet what they are ) .

Roofs:

We never talked about roofs – Have We ?

As with walls, there's several ways to build roofs. A standard styled roof, can be made from wooden roof trusses , as long as your NOT contemplating an earth sheltered roof. For example, in a rain water catchment system, you will want a clean surface, to catch that rainwater & common asphalt or fiberglass shingles, just won’t work as a covering, since they will leach petroleum & other pollution's into your rainwater. Instead if your going with a wooden materials roof, consider choosing a metal roof covering , as your best choice for water to be caught from. Other choices might be an EPDM pond liner, over an insulated wooden roof ,will do just fine. Some loose stone covering will be required, to protect the EPDM liners and some extra engineering may be required as such. Also, Concrete over Wooden Roofs will work too , with proper water resistant liners. You may wish to research completely this term: "concrete domes" as well. Since these masonry roofs weight so much more , they would require extra expense in strength . There are many types of Concrete Domes out there too. Since this is only an online introductory to Ecoitecture, we will suggest some additional reading at this point research ferrocement.com/Page_1/english.html as a starting point, as there is a plethora of greatly detailed info there too.

How you construct your roof, will therefore become a matter of its use, in the total scheme of your construction plan and final use of the structure. Should you wish to cover the building’s roof with Earth – an engineered roof plan for that extra weight, "Will Be Required " as that 1 foot of Earth, will weigh over 65 LBS. Per cubic ft .

With Rammed Earth walls some accommodation to allow the roof to connect to those walls, will be required no matter which way you decide to go with roof choices, be sure and plan to allow 8" in the center to tie all together, plus an extra 8" on top as the cap & bond beam . Then with seal plate length bolts protruding upward ( if a wood roof is chosen ) or properly sized rebar sticking out, at least 24" long to tie a concrete roofs rebar web to. You will require forming on top of your Rammed Earth Walls & cans will work when mortared like bricks ( lay them with the small end pointing inside to outside. Then a bond beam to be poured on top of Rammed Earth Walls and any roof can be applied.

Have A Merry Christmas 2012

SO, You Want To Go Off-Grid ?

 

At Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture Were All About Self Sustainability & We Sell All The Products &

Services Related To This End. We get a lot of question about life off grid & one of the most common is : “Just what is really involved ?” Some planning is a must for the homeowner, before going off grid thus, you might ask yourself a few questions :

 

#1 )  What Size Generator System Do I Need ?

#2)   What Size Generator System Can I Afford ?

#3)   What Fuel Will I Choose ?

#4    What Methods Of Storage Do I Choose ?

#5    What Home Design Features, Will Impact My Energy Usage ?

 

Today, we will begin today with the first question, as that understanding how you will use the energy you produce is the key to understanding & planning for a off-grid generator system.  The table below shows estimates of typical wattage that is associated with home appliances and may help you understand the power demands that will affect your generator system size. There are two primary considerations - Running Watts and Starting Watts.  Running watts represent the solid stead- wattage, while Starting Watts represent the requirements on your system for common initial starting wattage, required If or When the appliance first starts up.

A Georgia Adobe Is Many Things, But 1 Is :

A Modern Thermal Mass Construction Method

---

Thermal Mass is defined as an energy material, that can be added to almost any structure and used much as a battery is used , except in this case thermal mass is used to hold heat or cool. This heat or cool energy if arranged properly into a building, can make a vast monetary difference, in a homes overall cost of operation and construction cost too !  

When Einstein gave us the equation of E=MC2 ,  he also wrote therein about the speed of light, with that reference. Had he not included a speed of light quotient, this might could have described what we find, from the enormous amounts of energy capable of being stored, in thermal mass. Combined with the free energy available to us all from the sun and the energy saved in a mechanical systems size ( actual needs ) &/or the operations of mechanical systems , the properly controlled releases of thermal mass energy, makes its addition to any building, very desirable and can nearly eliminate much heating and cooling cost, when combined with a ventilation system.

As an example, consider this: Solar heat energy can enter a building , perhaps through large windows or through custom built energy gathering system, and it’s then absorbed by thick thermal mass walls, floors or building features perhaps least expensively in earthen constructed walls.  Heat or coolness captured, can then be slowly released during times of need at night and on sunless days , to change the buildings environmental temperature.

Considerable ecological damage to earth’s environment has been produced, by the conventional building construction industry and the materials that are chosen for building conventional structures is often even dangerous to breath in after installation to a building . Also many factors including air, water and environmental pollution results from these materials, plus the energy required during manufacturing those materials is enormous. We know of many conventional building materials factories, that would rather pay the Environmental Pollution Fines, rather than clean up their manufacturing plants !

Then the transportation cost & pollution enters into the conventional building picture, as to the job site distance is often a long trip, from a materials collection site          (forest, mining operation , oil field etc. ) then to a factory o& on to a sales center & to the building site  very often require more energy consumed than making the materials. After that even more energy is used in the actual construction process, of the structure.

Conversely, with a Georgia Adobe Home, the actual site materials can normally be harvested and used for the building of walls, floors and ceilings creating Thermal Mass. Through a process called Rammed Earth Construction , (a long ago proven method of construction, even used by the US Government today) major construction costs are saved and pollution is greatly reduced , allowing a major monetary gain for the home builder, not to mention the lessening of environmental pollution's .

Existing conventional homes can also be improved upon or even expanded or modified to convert them to perform much like a Georgia Adobe’s modern thermal mass construction does. Combined with Internal & External systems both new construction or existing structures,  can be built & will operate more afford-ably and independently,  in a GREEN Method, from Thermal Mass , Recycling  Local Materials ( capturing or use that would normally be thought of as a costly waste stream too ) .

Today, we are all blessed with the modern days low cost technologies, many that can also generate real energy we can use and in several forms. We can now safely capture, contain and filter rainwater or snow melt, then recycle that water many times,  within the building or outside of it, to lessen the water needs we have and the cost of disposal too.

Additionally,  electricity can be generated cheaply today at home & even commercial facilities can be operated afford-ably  off grid when combined with personal fuel/energy systems, which are also available from Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture.

These systems include site made gas, solar electricity and solar thermal of many kinds, correctly sized wind energy turbines, and alcohol fuel systems that can also run all the building’s power generators and its transportation engines too.

Public infrastructures that were once previously seen as a stumbling block to someone’s construction project can now be totally eliminated as a reason, to not to build practically anywhere, as these public utilities are no longer required, by the independent Georgia Adobe Structure owner/builder.  And, the savings of your energy purchases, can be plowed back into a buildings construction, and/or used to add to a higher quality of life or business profitability for the Georgia Adobe Building Owner.

We believe that your construction is a private matter and we ask that you contact Joe Woodall for personal attention at Georgia Adobe Ecoitecture’s Headquarters .
