More video please.

Hi wondering if you got your space done. I have some thoughts for you. First the hieght is a problem, the foam tends to break down with the preasure created by the wieght of the solution. Nex think of dywall when making your walls. the core of drywall is gypsom and by itself is not able to sustain itself, so they layer 7 layers of paper on each side. So lets concider your wals are 6 inch thick with your concrete grid in the center, If you put a membrain on either side that becomes the strenth, second build a form 4 x8 is a standard size and works well. while layin flat you put you membraim on the bottom of the form [ 1/8 door skin would work great for the insideas it would be a finishe surface] pour you aircrete withe the grid in the center now this is where you finish the outside. You can use paper or doorskin or woven roving or just a cotton sheet. After 3 days deform now if you use woven roving you can put fiberglass resin on it for strength and waterproof, you can do this on the paper as well even the door skin. Or you can just paint it with 3 coats of good outdoor paint. Ror your house you can daytoe the slabes to except the steel studs every 2 feet, of course your form now needs to be 2 by 8.

Thank you for posting this. Very good information. I got rather lost when you started to describe the building (around 13:30) because I could not form a mental picture of the building. Would it be possible to show a picture of the building or show a simple sketch diagram. Again, thank you for sharing this information. Very helpful, especially showing the foam gun, sump pump and what the foam should look like, Red & April Off-Grid mentioned you in a video as having the answer for their poor aircrete tests (cold water).

what is your concentrations of each?

Did you use an aircrete foam gun

Great job! I assume the mix didn't have lumps and was consistent as well?

i want to make clad a shipping container in these

Does the foam show any warnings for toxins?

with such mix you can use some Screw pumps for supply of cement mixtures -- to make wall fill much easier

I love the shredder idea. Thank you so much for sharing.

I'm really enjoying your creativity! Thank you, I'm getting so many helpful ideas.

Too cute. Looks like a fortune cookie printout they're playing with😂

YO! THAT STYROFOAM SHREDDER IS AMAZING! 🤯 🏆 ❤👍😊

That's right Grandpa exercise your 2nd Amendment Rights! 👍😅 Your a lot of fun! 👍❤😊

Thanks for this amazing video. It is interesting to see how fluid your mix is. I can see the benefit especially pouring larger walls like pouring ICF, where you could pour around windows. The cool part of seeing your blowout is seeing how little was lost. I have seen a few ICF real life disasters with DIY'ers and in those cases it is catastrophic. The idea of insulating a trailer never crossed mind however would be an inexpensive alternative for people living in mobile homes and modulars.

Excellent!

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your video posting. These are good ideas.

George, what is the mix quantities for your product. How much styrofoam cement foam for one barrel.

Hi George. Great video. this is what I love about sharing ideas on KZbin because it gets more people testing and sharing their findings. Your mix is actually a little wetter with more cement than my mix just from looking at the video and your mix pours better because of that. The less portland in the mix the better the R value I have found. I had to pack mine into the molds since the mix did not flow well and thus would not fill every nuke and cranny. But the weight of the mix I imagine also helps to push it into the crevices as it gets up to around 3 or 4 feet. People have been building with wood encased in concrete for generations. The wood does fine as long as moisture does not enter the wall. Styro aircrete will absorb water due to the porous nature of the foam in the mix but will dry out if allowed too. What kind of siding are you planning to install?

How much time you roll the cake ?time is important once you add the cement !can you appreciate?how much foam agent did you use for one batch ?

aha so you kept the cement at the end so can start reacting later to keep a short time action mix! for this kind of material you try to archive the foam is not so important but it purpose is to create lighter product ! we have also termo-concrete that s not have foam and its heavier because we need more cement to coat all the aggregate !

wow ! is something amassing i ve see here ! asuming you will not try to move it to much at later time do you ?because has increase it mass ....Hmm!

can you make a video or a hand drawing what s inside that polystyrene shredder? How you made the knifes ?

in batch there you have 2 type of Styrofoam but i think is not something rung using closed cell anyway ! is the same once you make little pices you can called filler material or "aggregate" so regardless that is a extruded or expanded !but the difference between those could be the density ! but assuming you will mix and the local density will be dispersive ! no problemo!

George please mention from your experiences (tests) how temperature influence the foam? i read some masters diploma on this topic and they say depending on foam type agent but they all tend to work better lower temperature at the beginning !but again as well all know lower temperature could mean not good for any cement working !still more the 5 to 7 Celsius as staring point they say over 35 procreant better then at 21 0r +35 Celsius! how come ! having the opportunity to have direct answers from a real person that could mention me the conclusions will be greater benefit for me

so how we can regulate the production of the right foam consistency every time/Ok we observe but basically we regulate the air pump right ?How much psi we need for the right foam ?

Ok sow let me understand !You foam machine do not need a a air compressor right ?youuse only a small pump that create the air necessary for the foam i am right ?

so you say soft worm water is better vs cold regular water !in terms of reducing the foam agents and foam capabilities ?

What you mean by soft water !?you boiled first and let it cool?

how many hours that EVERLAST stay "ON" have you cronometrate?

what you mean by consistency of the agent?maybe you meant to say the dilution ration (95-100grames per liter of water) i am right or i just misunderstood? that's the density of the foam measured in a 1 liter bucket right ?sow you can compared to water density !i am right ?What foam density we need to produce Lightweight Structural Blocks !?I m assuming the ratio from slurry (some type of mix design slurry) With a certain amount of foam more or less will produce eventually structural or non structural density blocks right ! The the density of the blocks can be only achieve by using from the start same good foam no matter what and just tweak the ration between them .is true ?

Great job! You could lay the barrel horizontally on rollers and spin it by hand or motorize the rollers so you can pour and/or prep another barrel.

Inspiring!

Hi George! Nicecwork! Just wondering....Are you concerned about the Styroaircrete cracking if you move the trailer?

What affect do you think the styroaircrete will have on the lumber?

So simple. What are the benefits? Is it cheaper than fiberglass? What is th R-value?

Thank you Thank you for sharing your creations with us! I'm looking forward to seeing what you discover in the Spring!

Wow yehaw. Great work.

Thanks for another good video, George!

This is great!

Hi George, thank you very much for all your videos. Iam Carmen Almeida and remodeling my house. Is it possible to send you some photos of the project? I have some questions I hope you and your family will not misinterpret this messge. The house orientation is North-West in a corner, so it gets sun all day in the summer and cold windy during the winter. I wish to cover all the walls arround the house with aircrete but the new combination that you developed.

I grew up with a slight different way of saying it. "You can't turn a sow's ear into a silk purse." Meaning, sometimes you can't turn an inferior product into a superior product.

You were spraying the foam saying this is to dry, now its over the target but you weren't saying anything to look for. What are you looking for and adjusting to get it there?

Basic recipe for non-autoclaved lightweight aerated concrete (aircrete) with 600lbs kg/m3 density: -Ordinary Portland cement -Limestone powder (particles up to 0.05 mm) -Aluminum powder MEPCO 7520 or any Aluminum powder with blaine value 15,000 cm2/g and more Dry mix formula: 50% cement (by weight) + 50% limestone powder. For 1 kg of dry mix you need 500g cement and 500g limestone powder Mixture formula for for 700kg/m3 density: 1 kg of dry mix0.65 liters of water, 1 g of aluminum powder for 100 kg of dry mix you will 65 liters of water and 100 g of aluminum powder. How to mix it: 1. Add water in the bucket. 2. Add dry mix in the water and mix it for a couple of minutes. 3. Add aluminum powder and mix 1-2 minutes. 4. Check video for graphene dry mix ratio and add 5. Pour in mold Videos are on KZbin. Graphene is easy to make and can be made out of just about anything - graphite, sugar, charcoal, etc. Graphene adds additional strength. You can make it in a microwave, in an oven, with a welder etc.

Nice work George, do you mind telling me where do you live, I live in Ontario also

Midsummer greetings to you George and your family. I have throughly enjoyed you sharing some of your creativity on KZbin. I thank you.
