\\\”R-rating of 200 & tires are almost free.\\\”
I think that you missed part of the non-toxic aspects of the article. Tires contain a large amount of petroleum products, something that I\\\’d certainly want to eliminate from my breathing area.

you would still need plenty of insulation in the northern part of the globe since the r- rating is only 2.5. Ugly deign & costly. Try a tire bale house. R-rating of 200 & tires are almost free.

I wonder what the R-value or R-rating of the “Hemcrete” is? This is a great innovation in the use of hemp products for building material. I hope to see the legalization of hemp in the US in the near future. Our politicians have no idea how hemp could stimulate the economy and help the reduction of carbon emissions in the US. Come on Obama Administration!!!! WE WANT CLEAN AIR AND GREEN JOBS!!

Hemp houses are great. There is a new technology from Australia where you can Grow Your Own Hemp Home! Also offers full construction manual for building with hemp http://www.thehempbuilder.com

Good idea, ugly design (apart from the basic structure).

At $452,200, I dare say I can’t afford this “light on cost” house.
