Excellent presentations! The Binishells look the most promising, but the Comfort Block solution looks like it would cost upwards of $250 per square foot for a turnkey structure.

[@Eye_of_a_Texan]

Perfect blocks may be environmentally friendly, but if you have to mention how easy it is to fix damaged blocks in the sales presentation, you'll be fixing some blocks. Also note that nothing was said about its ability to weather high winds and such. Comfort blocks seemed like the most viable option for most people.

[@maziemiles1]

He did mention high winds do not bother the housing

[@bobcathey8903]

Excellent video! Developed my own system in the early 1980's. Never was able to proceed with my design due to lack of technology at the time. Maybe one day .....

[@darkshadowsx5949]

did you need to employ millions of nano robots for it to work? idk what your plan is but we have advanced greatly in terms of technology in the last 40 years. we might not have nano robots but we have a lot more materials to work with.

[@Erin-Thor]

On those blocks with styrofoam inside, there’s a product in Texas that mixes styrofoam with a special super hard cement mixture that makes cinderblocks that are super light, great insulation, and you can’t break or damage them with a hammer.

[@kmw4359]

That’s probably the “Perfect Block” shown at the end of the video

[@edsonjavierrr]

What are they called

[@Erin-Thor]

@@edsonjavierrr - In this video they are called “Perfect Block,” however every manufacturer has their own brand name. Search for “styrofoam concrete blocks” here on KZbin and you will find dozens of examples.

[@edsonjavierrr]

@@Erin-Thor thanks!

[@Codinferno]

Styrocrete and aircrete

[@JohnSmith-ft2tw]

The last system seems highest value, and easiest DIY project. I might first look at that for a basic "cabin on the lake" type use, to test it's potential. The logistics of availability, transportation costs, and a final leg to an off grid site would be major determining factors, as well as initial costs.

[@plasmaglowmusic1655]

The "perfect blocks" should be stacked like bricks in an alternating pattern instead of directly on top of each other.

[@zancrus9629]

Yeah it was weird for those some of the building had the blocks offset but then a bunch of others just had them stacked up directly on top of each other. I thought that was a little odd looking.

[@plasmaglowmusic1655]

@@zancrus9629 it is structurally weak and can easily topple with the right conditions. (i.e. earthquake etc.)

[@rbnhd1976]

Those are supposed to have rebar every course and down each column and then filled with concrete.. I'm not sure why they didn't show that, that's one of the main selling points? It makes a very strong structure if put together correctly

[@trentszeponski3456]

Wow you have houses for the future to live in, have work shop space, and room for store houses. I see my dream future house in this video.

[@danavadanei4667]

Frumos și interesant, bravo.

[@thinkingoutloud6741]

Was surprise to see the complete lack of staggered structure in the “Perfect Block” product in the last system. Seems like a basic building technique was being ignored, and I can’t help but wonder why.

[@steveperreira5850]

I noticed that right away, no staggering, it must be a mistake, but maybe they were too lazy to cut the blocks in half for a staggered course. It’s inexplicable to me.

[@JC-XL]

That's what I thought as well and it looks so counter-intuitive, but this is because bricks are load-bearing and the staggered pattern serves to redistribute the load and bind/interlock together the blocks (bricks). Here the blocks only serve as a mould to pour concrete in and then serve as insulation, the load bearing part is provided by the concrete that is poured into them. Think about these blocks as arranging your insulation.

[@davidkerk5676]

my thoughts exactly.

[@steveperreira5850]

J C Staggering always improved strength, even when we are talking about the interior continuum of concrete and rebar

[@rchrdgrn]

After the Block are set concrete is grouted through the holes for a complete web of reinforced concrete inside the whole structure of the wall very strong. This is not a new building system it was invented in 1965 in Australia it's called rostra block.

[@darkshadowsx5949]

10:14 you really should stagger blocks its structurally important. if you build a house out of legos like that its easy to knock down. if you stagger them its much harder to break a wall apart.

[@slippery_gecko9274]

It even looks wrong

[@petersatzer3010]

Not very much if the blocks itself are not supposed to hold anything up. What this product is, is basically a styrofoam mold for the concrete that can stay in place as insulation after the pour. You also see connecting channels in those blocks to allow for an encased continuous concrete structure for the whole wall. I don't think the styrofoam blocks add very much real support to the structure, but that it is completely dependent on the concrete filled in. But I agree that it looks wrong to do it that way

[@masterpiece62]

cost comparison per sq ft would be a nice metric

[@donraptor6156]

$250.00 per square foot turn key sounds about right! I researched a Concrete come home. I built a brick home for $35.00 a square foot.

[@cgstech5657]

Hi, yeah I agree cost is a factor, but it's kinda hard to give an estimate when there are so many other things to take into consideration than just the cost of the blocks. Only Conrete shell companies and Aerecura rammed earth company builds turnkey solutions. Binishells have different system that range in price and Aerecura is from my research a bit more expensive than conventional construction because of the labor involved. Comfort Block is I think about $30 for square foot and the OSBlock and Perfect Block you have to contact the companies for a quote.

@@cgstech5657 I mean, it's not hard to just find a house that was built with one method and then find the cost of building it and divide that by the square footage, then find a comparably sized traditional house and do the same.

[@주명화-w3c]

The mold proof blocks are mold proof. But however perfectly they make mold proof blocks, if you're living in a house of its temperature gap between in and out of the house is too big, then the house starts to be moldy. That's freezing phenomenon especially in winter when the heating temperature is too high making big temperature gap from outside cold weather, it makes mold start to grow.

Steel reinforced concrete doesn't last very long. Maybe 40 years at best. Once the water gets to the rebar and starts rusting it, the rust expands and the concrete begins to chip away. That's why the roman coliseum has lasted so long, yet things like apartment building balconies and concrete bridges don't.

As I continue to watch your series with great interest, I can't help but note how greenhouse gas emissions heavy many of the materials and methods of construction are. Whilst many of these buildings will have a lower energy input over their useful occupancy life (that's great), I don't think that it's possible to truly describe most as eco-friendly. Costs are more than just what it takes to build them in the 1st place; overall environmental costs/impact matters too. End of life disposal is important for *any* product to eliminate landfill usage and all the problems associated with them. Most of these construction materials are not recyclable at end of life. TBC, these observations are NOT criticisms of the channel, but of materials used therein.

To be fair they are sometimes the only viable option due to conditions and intended use of the buildings but I think that wherever possible, it's good to limit their usage in favour of sustainable construction materials that are relatively easy to recycle at the end of their useful life; particularly in the case of plastics, polymers and polystyrene.
