*The structural CAD for the roof is in this folder (file Belize Microhouse.sh3d):  [https://drive.google.com/open?id=15zYb_uhTkBnGMUZa9q7f9sFo3y3VJkcM]
 
Based on that design, I drew up this list of materials: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hWAUu4roXp0N2semHtghBP9BiFgIIEbpUNXANQZX1wk/edit#gid=0
 
The list is not 100% complete - I still need to add screws and more nails - but it has the most critical components for the roof and loft. I believe the priority right now is to get the lumber (so it has time to dry) and check if the hardware (tie plates and hurricane ties) is available there or if it needs to come from the US.
 
Most lumber needs to be hardwood and rot-resistant (it'll be exposed to the elements). This is all specified in the "grade" column. Aidan talked to the carpenter who recommended a couple wood species as being good for roofs (hardwood and rot-resistant).
 
The dimensions on the document are what we need. If the wood is green and is going to shrink, we will need slightly longer boards (to account for shrinkage).

#[[File:check.png]]'''Bob Moore'''
#[[File:check.png]]'''MAC Chiulli'''
#[[File:check.png]]'''Jolanda Witvliet''' - Denmark
#[[File:check.png]]'''Patrick Sullivan''' - Canada - I follow OSE on facebook, so that is how i heard - the fb link. I've been interested in building with earth for a while now. I've helped build strawbale homes, earthen floors, walls and ovens. I am quite interested in the CEB machine as well. I have taken workshops on building and recipe making but am still looking to broaden my horizons. I have recently found good quality building clay in the area i live, Mackenzie BC Canada. Also i found an old lime quarry. Anyway, working with the earth seems to be an almost lost skill. I think it is a very important and foundational to a resilient society to be wise about working with earth. My '''goals''': basically im interested in the whole gestalt of the context/process. The social diversity and collaborative elements, the empirical metrics of the earth - pattern and difference between types. Im quite into the setting up and cleaning up process as well. It's only a week so i'm not expecting to much. It's part holiday for me as well so I'm looking forward to the beach/yoga scene :) Was I one of the first 12? I would like one of them rooms if possible. Although im flexible really.  But please let me know.
#[[File:check.png]]'''Duane Johnson''' - Utah - Hi Marcin! I've been looking forward to something like this for YEARS. I'm a founder of a makerspace called Make Salt Lake (Utah) and first heard about OSE after your TED talk in 2011. Excited to learn & build alongside such innovators, and hope to make a CEB press when I return.
#[[File:check.png]]'''Vincent Horn'''
#[[File:check.png]]'''Rey Johnson''' - Canada - I am Duane's younger sister. I live in Canada and he lives in the US, and we haven't seen each other in a long while, so this project is going to be a big highlight for us. I heard about it from him today, but have been keenly interested in these kind of builds for a long time. It was an instant yes for me when he proposed the idea. My goals are to learn as much as I can about technology that can save the planet, especially when it comes to housing. I'm a huge believer in sustainability and love earthships and tiny homes. I'm a geek for this stuff. So excited. This looks fabulous.
#[[File:check.png]]'''Ken Kesslin''' - http://proteus-international.com/the-team/ken-kesslin/ - I'm currently in a learning mode about natural building techniques and about ecological home construction. I have a desire to build my own home someday and I'm also interested in discovering ways to make home ownership more accessible to those with more limited resources (my past life as a Social Worker bubbling up!). So by coming to collaborate in Belize I'm hoping to leave with... 1. At least a basic understanding of the entire home build process - from foundation to roof as well as the utility systems. 2. An understanding of the benefits and downsides of using compresssed earth bricks for construction. 3. Learn about collaborative and modularized building to speed up construction - especially by less skilled people. 4. Connections to others who can be resources and potential collaborators if/when I decide to invest time and money in a construction project.

#[[File:check.png]]'''Leila Hellmuth'''
#[[File:check.png]]'''Ismail Mussa'''
#[[File:check.png]]'''Reginald Maunze''' - I found out about this opportunity from a friend and after watching your TED Talk and some of the other projects you have done, I was convinced to come along and learn about how to build Microhouses. My goals in this workshop, is to gain as much knowledge as possible regarding Open Source technology as well as make a difference to someone's life.
#[[File:check.png]]'''Joe Richards'''. I am always looking for the "what's next" idea to help move our camp and facility forward. To make parent's, teachers, and other say - our kids have to experience this program - thus world camp, farm camp etc. I want to understand how the CEB machine works and how it is put together. I want to see how the CEB's are used to build and how to troubleshoot consistency problems with CEB's. I want to see the viability of building a CEB machine at Pearce Williams and use it for building small houses for summer staff, volunteers, and/or retirees. Seek knowledge about how this works with building codes and engineers. I want to learn more about the OSE movement and how Pearce Williams can help our local community learn and grow with it. World Camp connection - use a CEB machine to create the blocks and build a structure as a teaching tool for both interested individuals and ongoing education for our campers and school groups.
#[[File:check.png]] - '''Rick Hagen'''
#[[File:check.png]] - '''David Puckett'''
#[[File:check.png]] - '''Pieter Hijma'''. I've been a silent follower of your projects for many years now, so I don't recall exactly how I found out about Open Source Ecology. However, most likely, I have been looking out for cool open source projects and came across your TED talk. I'm a computer scientist and care much for open source software.  In my opinion everybody should have the ability to verify the software that they run and I believe this should extend to the physical world as well. Hence my interest in your projects.  I believe division of labour is a logical phenomenon, but I don't understand why this implies keeping your methods secret to others as is customary nowadays.  I believe this is an important contributor to a divide in society and I would like to see it changed. Up until now I haven't had time to become involved because I have a demanding job.  I've decided to register for the workshop because I'm looking forward to meet more like-minded people.  I'm pretty sure I will leave academia in a year or so and as I'm wondering about my next steps, I'm trying to extend my network, and my world-view. Another goal is to simply learn new things (everything of the workshop will be new to me).  I'm very interested in compressed earth blocks as a building material and how one builds a house in general. Thanks for reaching out to me personally and I'm looking forward to meeting you and the other participants.
#[[File:check.png]] - '''Emmanuel Gye'''.''Will instructional materials,booklets, DVD etc be provided?'' Yes, we are compiling all the design, CAD, bills of materials, instructionals, and budgets into a manual. Does that answer your question?. ''I want to learn how to build with CEB so as to use it for internal refugees in Africa. I have also been looking at the Liberator IV and would love to see it in action.'' More: I actually found you first was doing searches for compressed us technology on YouTube. And also over a year ago. I subsequently follow you on Twitter and so gotten word of the workshop that. I am actually a physician who is originally from Nigeria and has been concerned about the plight of the internal refugees for return to deer destroyed homes. My thought was to help them build better quality house and then they started out with using the same materials. So I would like to gain knowledge and skills during the workshop and transfer this to the refugees. I will look at the links you sent out. Additionally I would like to work with agencies such as Rotary to see if we could sponsor trainees from Africa to the workshops. Or alternatively organise workshops in Africa. More about that when we meet face to face.

Based on that design, I drew up this list of materials: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hWAUu4roXp0N2semHtghBP9BiFgIIEbpUNXANQZX1wk/edit#gid=0

The list is not 100% complete - I still need to add screws and more nails - but it has the most critical components for the roof and loft. I believe the priority right now is to get the lumber (so it has time to dry) and check if the hardware (tie plates and hurricane ties) is available there or if it needs to come from the US.

Most lumber needs to be hardwood and rot-resistant (it'll be exposed to the elements). This is all specified in the "grade" column. Aidan talked to the carpenter who recommended a couple wood species as being good for roofs (hardwood and rot-resistant).

The dimensions on the document are what we need. If the wood is green and is going to shrink, we will need slightly longer boards (to account for shrinkage).
