i wouldn't even suggest people to use this material for construction because of the fact that i think you will destroy huge number of trees...

"It is legitimate to think that timber construction accelerates deforestation. It is in fact exactly the opposite. The wood used for the Mecawood brick is not cut out of exotic wood in an uncontrolled way, without taking the equilibrium of the forest into account. It is a type of wood that is certified and is originating from forests that are renewed and managed in a rigorous way."

How do you run electrical and plumbing?

[jermoer]

Our brick is designed to integrate all the technical sheathing and casing (electricity, heating, water) in a built in and non apparent way.

soy brasileño y me gustaría saber si se puede cambiar una parte de la pared para reglar-la se algo mal se suceda con el pasar del tiempo.

i dont think this is a great way to build based on cost the hardware alone looks like it would bankrupt my build let alone the amount of lumber involved vs a stick built house now a earth block in this shape with a masonary bond aka mortar or a arigated plastic block with a liquid nail bond could be way cheaper n probably chatch on like wild fire !

@jermoer almost all lumber produced in the united states is renewed. Seems like a ridiculious idea for a product to me I dont think it will catch on.

[thomasuras]

cost per sf? Its ridiculously expensive

@sarandorairaj Not at all. It must be much less flammable than a stick constructed house. Houses with Studs burn fast because the space between the outside wall and the inside wall allows air to feed the fire. These walls would not burn fast and fire in one room would not be able to pass through the house anywhere near as fast as in a regular stick frame construction.
