I’m replacing two walls in the upstairs floor of my house in Vermont, USA. The house was conventionally built in the 90s using sheet rock softwood framing and fiberglass insulation. The floors are pine. I would love to use hempcrete as a replacement. I’m wondering if anyone has experience retrofitting with this material ? They are interior non load bearing walls. I’m mainly curious about the wall thickness and also it looks like ideally there is a masonry plinth supporting from the floor which in my case it would just be pine with the frame underneath. Let me know thanks!
