Hej!
Sorry for the English, my Swedish vocabulary isn't so good with DIY terminology...
I am removing a non load bearing interior wall in my apartment (built 1929) and there is an unusual construction that I would love to know more about.
There seems to be a solid wooden core, with a straw layer, followed by a coarse plaster/cement layer.
Does anyone know when this type of construction was common? I am not sure if this wall is original to the apartment. I am also wondering if it contains asbestos, or something else I should be worried about...
Thanks!

Yes, it was a common construction 1929. The Swedish word is kloasongvägg.
