A 2 weeks Hempcrete workshop organised to build the FORT V. 

In december 2017, BC studies organised a workshop to execute in situ hempcrete as insulation for the walls and roof of the FORT V project. The workshop was led by contractor Het Leemniscaat. Because of repetitive works, the workshop participants were invited for a participation of 2 consecutive days, ending up with changing teams of 6 people per day for two weeks. Participants were introduced into the mixing of hempcrete, putting formwork, compressing hempcrete and taking formwork away. Every two days at lunchtime, a lecture on hempcrete was held by Woonder.
