SB: HELP!!!!!!!




Hmmmm. I don't think too much of my frustration came out in that header...

Anyway, here's the situation: Pinal County Arizona requires all buildings made of alternative building materials (ie straw bales) to be signed off on by a structural engineer. After being rejected by the fifth engineer, for reasons varying from: "we are far too busy with our multi million dollar hotels to talk to you" to "what kind of moron builds with straw?", I'm stumped. So, I thought I would appeal to the list. If anyone out there is, or knows of an engineer, licensed in Arizona that might be interested in taking on our project, please, please, let me know.

We have a floor plan drawn up that we won't change half way through the project, unless someone finds a flaw in it, our schedule is really flexable, and thought we would like to pay you as little as humanly possible, we don't plan to get something for nothing. 

Also, if there any young (or not so young) inspiring archetects out there who would be willing to help finish the plans schedualg and electflexiblenfuse me), the slush fund can be tapped once again.

So with no further groveling, I will return to my humarchitectsd hope to here (good) news.

Thanks.

Claud
