Thank you. 😊 Great explanation and very informative. The idea of building the home in parts, so you have completed sections, is was exactly how I was thinking. Our property requires a minimum of 1000sq ft home, so I wanted to permit in phases if they will allow. I will definitely check out the tutorials!

Liked, subbed. Does aircrete get harder with age if rained on after cured? What do you think about adjusting the aircrete with each layer so you have a stronger bottom mix that gradually gets lighter toward the top?

I've always wanted to go back to Guanajuato and learn how to build those brick domes. No forms used, pre Hispanic. I hear the last brick is tossed up into place. My foundation guy was from Guanajuato and I asked him if I could learn. He wanted to talk about how he hid his guns in the walls of his new house. By the way not sure where I was but I saw the sign for the school. I mean I know what county I was in just not where in the county. Sometimes I go out to Agua Fria and my brain runs off and get it's toes stuck in the bentonite. Leaves everything behind except the bad attitude because it's time to head east to the pan-am freeway. A non profit gallery I'm involved in wants to build a cuartito in the back for traveling artists. It'll likely be sized the same as the existing shed that needs to be removed. I would love to build some aircrete tilt wall panels. It would be perfect to shore up the falling down board and batten shed, pour a foundation perimeter, deck it, then pour a common denominator wall panel. And when there is enough parts make the shed change from a shored up, rotting bottomed 100year old structure still energized by knob and tube ungrounded electrical service to modern and livable and revenue generating! We'll see. Hopefully we don't die from malaria this summer they say we lived through the 'rona. That's only because of the sotol I drank for 16 months while I designed a John Prine tattoo on my inner forearm reminding me of the smell of snakes in the air. Time to make breakfast and kill some grass with cardboard. Yeeehaw.

Hi Just found your vid. Just experienced the flooding in Vermont and was searching tiny homes to help the homeless up here. FEMA and some others are spearheading alot as well. I learned of aircrete I can see it being a valuable resource for this. Even if not used with this event i will be doing my due diligence to see gow to have a system ready and possibly a list of owners with land that we can get trailers and have these ready built on them to transport to the needed areas. I like your pueblo style for this idea. So will definitely need to learn and see what I can do and see what your current status is and progress with your system. I had also contact Domegaia and learned they do workshops as well not sure if you are related at this point or not. But just gathering info and hope I can process this and have a viable solution for what i would like to be involved with. Maybe even find land and build for myself as an example here in New England maybe even see if a workshop would be doable this year. Ok thats my thought off the top of my head. Love seeing these ideas come to fruition. Scary to see wood buildings burn. Time for cement to rise not just in warm climates.

@TinyGiantLifeStyle
@TinyGiantLifeStyle 3 жыл бұрын
Once you understand the process and details then you hire unskilled labor; $10 per hour here. You can place ads in craigs list or post availability at your state labor/job office. Then you have to train them and be willing to fire them if they don't get the world done or don't listen. Electric, plumbing, HVAC and skilled labor is expensive and a little risky to let just anyone do it for you unless you understand exactly what needs to happen. Doing these things your self or hiring a guy from a company to do it on the "side" can work ok.

Subbed!!! In 2000, I had a vision of a young couple with the one Hellsing a boy and a girl's hand so four people coming toward me to my right and to their left was an underground house and they came to the door and there was a welcome mat out and the note on the door said if you find this home it's yours we built it for you. There is food everything ready to eat silverware pots and pans plates cups saucers a fire ready to light in the stove. Ever since I've studied every single alternative building system I could find wondering if I could explain how to build those homes that fast and that quickly and that safely to have them be Underground I think aircreate has a lot to do with it and I really appreciate you doing it you've been doing and helping people I'd love to get out to your course or at least get a course someday and thank you for your KZbin thank you so much for everything you're doing!!

My Sis and I are going to build an aircrete home. Up until now we were going to build a Geodome, but after listening today, we may make it a square house with a dome over the top and a courtyard in the middle. I have already subscribed and liked your channel. I've enjoyed watching you along with several other aircrete channels. We pick what we need from each channel. One is great for DIY. This one is great for general information, and the potential for attending a workshop, if we can afford it. That has been our challenge so far is affording to do all of this stuff. I'm on SS, so I will almost have to start my own channel so I can afford to do all that I want to get done. I would even like to build an aircrete boat so we can go where and when we want. I have drawings for that already.

I do not believe you can foam adobe. The carbon foot print of a small structure can be canceled by using the greywater and growing 12 trees. It honestly no bad considering it could be a multi-generational home. Not only that but the average person uses FAR more energy and produces far more carbon driving to work daily. Then these the purchases energy. Either produces so much carbon that the amount of cement used for a modest homes doest even being to measure up.

To be honest, built in 10 days by 4 people, so 40 man days...

Just as easily made with one man in 14 days working 3 hours (2 actually) per day for 9 of those days and 10 hours per day for 5 days. 77 hours. Of course depends on building size. Many hands make light labor.

The desert is not for everyone but I love it down here! I took 3 PDCs and am really looking forward to building Bill Mollison's desert garden! There is a video on my channel shot nearby at a desert oasis already made. So it's very encouraging to know the possibilities!

I wonder how aircrete would do through a Maine winter, whether the structure should be off the ground

The "competition" is doing a workshop in Maine later this month (August 2021)! www.domegaia.com/upcoming-workshops.html Presumably they would address the specifics of adapting to Maine weather in that workshop...

What would be amazing, for people who don't live in the USA and who can not travel, would be a full written course, that features everything that is taught in the full course at the terlingua school. It would be a lot of work to create that, but if you did I would buy it immediately. Great vid as always. I wish you would put a rocket stove in one of these timy aircrete houses, and a greywater system that feeds fruit trees, would be even more awesome... Yes there's not much heating and cooling costs, but if the grid goes down at some point, this is not as good as a fully self sustained system.

What is the absolute cheapest shell that can be built? And what about all the different aircrete recipes that are shown online..
@TinyGiantLifeStyle
@TinyGiantLifeStyle 4 жыл бұрын
I think $12 per square foot is probably as cheap as it gets. If you buy bulk cement you might get it down as low as $9 per square foot for a shell.

Hi I just stumbled upon your video about AirCrete building. I'm most interested in a medium-sized structure that would be 1/2 buried in the ground, off grid, and semi-domed ceiling.
@TinyGiantLifeStyle
@TinyGiantLifeStyle 3 жыл бұрын
I never recommend placing AirCrete below grade. A berm placed on top of the ground might be ok. AirCrete has a low tensile strength compared to cement.

What if you add graphene fiber, glass fiber or rebar? That would increase the tensil strength. Any idea on the fiber ratios?
