Like Jemma, I am a student in university of melbourne. I am doing a project about a cabin near the beach and interested in finding more information e.g. the construction, material used for the base, plumbing, heating, electrictiy, transport about these floating homes. Also, any information about the design or concept related to the floating homes. Thanks in advance! Hi! Like Jemma, I am a student in university of melbourne.

Herr Olthuis! Ich kann nicht sagen, ob Sie mein erstes @ erhalten haben, wenn nicht, sehen Sie sich unsere HP an. Wir möchten dabei sein bei der Revolution in der Bauindustrie, die uns verrostet und verschlafen vorkommt. Nichts neues außer architektonisch, nichts wirklich neues von Seite der Baustoffe. Und hier wollen wir an Ihrer Seite stehen und Sie supportieren! Sehen Sie sich unser HP an und Sie werden gleich sehen, dass wir auch für Sie interessant sein können. Alle Materialien in unserem Programm haben Brandschutzklasse "A" nicht brennbar und sind zu dem leicht. Keine Recyclingprobleme, Resourcen- und Energieschonnend. Z.B., beim Blähvorgang (neues Verfahren "Wirbelschichtprozess") expandieren wir um das ca. 10-fache und bei einer Blähtemperatur von 310 Grad Celsius. Die Dichte von SioPor ist 60-120kg/m³! Leicht mit s.hohen Dämmwert wie EBS (Lambda-Wert 0,04). Hat auch sehr gute akkustische Eigenschaften - absorbierend. FG/avdm Daten zu mir dirkekt: MP +43 664 2403517 @ avdm@aon.at S.G. Herr Olthuis!

Our house is built on a concrete barge measuring 13.5 meters (44 feet) by 6 meters (20 feet) built in 1978. We float approximately 18 hours a day. We have municipal water, sewage, electricity and cable for high speed internet.This is a great way to live and we are happy to share our experiences. We do have a 400 meter (1/4 mile) walk from our parking lot to our front door which can be interesting during our rainy season. There are approximately 650 house boats in this area but there is great opposition to any more houseboat berths and the local building codes are becoming onerous.
