Re: Re(2): GBlist: Faswall



Abby,
        Faswall is a modified, oversized concrete block made of wood chips,(
pattened process) and cement.  It is considerably lighter than a regular
concrete block, can be stacked like one (is more precision molded) and
trimmed, drilled, routed and nailed using regular wood working tools.  It is
meant to be stacked, rebarred and filled with concrete.  It presumably
requires less skill than a normal concrete block.  At a finished R-11, is
suited to the somewhat warmer climates found in south or I suppose to an
uninsulated basement.  Regard,  Sacie Lambertson
