There are books on ferrocement boatbuilding; many libraries should have 
them. Also, Rex Roberts' book "Your Engineered House" (1960s/70s)
had a discussion of building with cement and fabric or basketwork meshes,
if I remember rightly. Also he discussed concrete with organic
aggregrates such as grain hulls.
