This page is going to be turned into a redirect to CEB Press Intro, but first we need to strip out the useful info and put it where it's needed. Everything should end up in one of the following: CEB Press Intro, CEB Press Development, CEB Press Bill of Materials, CEB Press Build Instructions, CEB Press user's manual

How about through-tie with rebar? We are considering this for double brick thickness walls. We could use technical help on this.
- Rebar can get very expensive in the developing world. The galvinized wire reinforcing is much lighter, (aka a shipping container from these guys as an examle - [10] , **probably could provide better resistance to earthquake, simular pricing to rebar per pound, and probably 5 times the support per pound of material) as well as not needing double thickness which cuts down on labor.
