Hemp Construction of a workshop and Sunroom Dunlavin Co.WicklowOwner: Mr. and Mrs. Cathal Spelman Construction manager/builder: The OldBuilders Company
Eco Friendly hemp construction consists of a timber framed
building shuttered and poured with a hemp shiv and hydraulic lime mix,
shuttering is removed leaving one with a solid structure that is then rendered
in Lime mortar inside and out. The resulting structure has the look and
feel of a masonry building but one that is much warmer and healthier for the
occupants as well as the environment.
