2005 Continental Cordwood Conference Papers (CoCoCo/05) ... edited by Richard Flatau, Rob Roy and Alan Stankevitz.

"This new collection of papers reports on the latest innovations in cordwood masonry since CoCoCo/99, the previous conference. It is an excellent supplement to Cordwood Building: The State of the Art.
In this volume you will find new papers on cordwood saunas, cordwood on a frost-protected shallow foundation, log-end treatment and insulation techniques, accenting light in a cordwood home, R-value studies, papercrete revisited, cordwood on a basement, 'wraparound' log-ends, cordwood mortar, lime putty mortar, the use of foam insulation, and several case studies from around North America. There is some beautiful work here, what we think of as the next generation in cordwood building. There are 27 articles in all, including four by Earthwood's Rob Roy, two by conference host Richard Flatau, two by Dr. Kris Dick, P.E. and two by Daycreek.com's Alan Stankevitz. Highly recommended."
