Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Creating Community-Led and Self-Build Homes, Martin Field explores the ways in which people and communities across the UK have been striving to create the homes and neighbourhood communities they want. Giving context to contemporary practices in the UK, the book examines ‘self-build housing’ and ‘community-led housing’, discussing the commonalities and distinctions between these in practice, and what could be learned from other initiatives across Europe. Individual methods and models of local practice are explored - including cohousing, cooperatives, community land trusts, empty homes and other intentional communities - and an examination is made of what has constrained such initiatives to date and how future policies and practice might be shaped.

Book excerpt: Written by "GRAND DESIGNS" Self Build Expert Barry Sutcliffe, this book sets about debunking the myths and revealing the hidden and often surprising secrets of the UK's self build industry. Over its 16 chapters and 550 pages it turns the industry upside down and shakes it until all the rubbish, the unnecessary and the inappropriate falls out. As it does so, it helps to create for the reader, a much clearer and less intimidating picture of what self build is actually all about. Allowing each individual to make informed decisions on "when, if and how" they should consider taking on their own project. In a straightforward, but easy to read style, it explores and explains all the important parts of the process, including: Would a self-build a good idea for you, either now or in the future? - What could you afford to build? - How can you find and buy good quality land at lower prices than most others pay for poorer plots? - How you can save 1,000's by actually designing your own home? - How to give yourselves the best chance of securing planning permission. - What building method would be best for you? - How to manage your project. - How building quickly can save you money. - How to avoid the pitfalls, the traps and the mistakes. The book's author is a well-known and well respected self build expert, with over 30 years of both housing and commercial site management experience. Barry's "no-nonsense" approach has seen him working with "Homebuilding and Renovating" magazine as self-build expert at their live shows. He was also part of Coalition Government's "Self Build Working Group" in 2011, where his ideas and knowledge helped to formulate governments latest UK self-build policy (published in 2012). Over 35 years' worth of unique and invaluable building experience and knowledge has been condensed into this book, with the aim of guiding you, the self builder on to a path where, maybe sooner than you think possible, achieving both your potential and your goals, could become a reality. Whether or not you are involved in the building industry, before you take on a self-build project, you should read this book."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An updated, fully revised, full-colour edition of the definitive manual on building with straw bales, described by Grand Designs as an 'essential guide'. Straw-bale buildings are cost-effective, easy to build and highly energy efficient, enabling you to design and build beautiful, environmentally friendly buildings.

Building with Straw Bales takes you through everything you need to know in an easy, accessible way. This includes design principles, the different types of foundations, how to raise and stabilise walls and protect them from the weather, including a detailed analysis of how straw performs with humidity and how straw bale buildings can easily meet building regulation requirements, as well as detailed information on lime and clay plaster finishes. Now in full colour for the first time, the beautiful photographs throughout this practical guide illustrate the design and build techniques described and showcase the diverse possibilities of straw bale building. The fully revised text includes step-by-step illustrations of key techniques, and also looks at the full international context of building with straw bales. This book is ideal for anyone looking to build more sustainably and integrate straw bales into their design.
