SB: slightly off-topic question re hemp/hydraulic lime

[Edel Chadwick <EChadwick@AIT.IE>]

Sorry this question is slightly off the topic, but I know from being a
member of this list in the past (I am a heretic who had to give up on living
in a SB house and buy a conventional one...still doing penance for that!)
that there is a wealth of knowledge and experience here so I am wondering if
anyone  has any experience of a hemp /hydraulic lime building material,for
use as infill in a timber frame construction. I am interested in any
technical results data, info, anything really. I know that this material has
been used in France for a number of houses, over the last ten years but
there appears to be a scarcity of technical data, which I will need to get
approval to use this material in a house. I would appreciate it if anyone
could help
