Looking through the notes, EPS is not a preferred material. However, it is more available and considerably cheaper. With the concern about it also not being rigid, I was thinking of reinforcing the walls with shelving.
Using a design similar to Playatech furniture, two sheets of ply could be cut into 8 inch shelves, 6 feet long. Some vertical pieces to hold them aloft, and suspending the top shelf around 2 feet high. 6 foot shelf, 2 foot vertical pieces, 8 foot plywood..... run a tape seam along the top shelf to the wall of the structure. 2 sheets of plywood would allow shelves along the 5 open walls, and some extra that could be ripped down to 4 inches to run as stabilizers along the ground to the vertical 2 foot pieces. Two issues solved. The walls of the 4x8 EPS (with foil) panels are bolstered, considerably. And there is plenty of shelving for the occupants. That's the thought, anyway. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hexayurt" group.
