Hello All, new to the forum. Planning stages for building a post an beam, in fill, straw bale house. Don’t have to worry about inspections and the like, here in KY I can get a farm exemption since I have more than 10 acres. Trying to decide on foundation, leaning towards a basement at this time. Going to build a sawmill , cut logs off my farm and mill my own lumber, did this 25 years ago when I built our current log home. My question is, is there a possibility of using tires filled with gravel to make basement walls? Thanks for this forum for the sharing of ideas. Paul
