Durisol walls for a basement?
RT got me to wondering about this Durisol thing. I reluctantly must
admit here for you baleheads that I will not be "building with bales".
In lieu of that however, I would like to use as friendly building
materials I can and recycle everything that I can for this project. Now
for my question/clarification:
Did I understand you right about the surface-bonded Durisol? Can I use
that for a full basement foundation? Keep in mind that the house will
have a 36x40 footprint, and it will be 2 stories with an attic for
future expansion. The design is a basic saltbox colonial. Looking
forward to the answer to this.
Also, how would this configuration compare to a poured concrete wall as
far as costs go?
Thanks,
Shane Van Wey
