this guy is so hard working and pro... respect and regards from Pakistan....

[@AircreteHarry]

Thank you brother, I appreciate your kind words!!

[@danwagner2296]

Harry, don't let everyone distract you from getting your dome ready for winter! You guys deserve a warm place for this winter.

[@AircreteHarry]

Thanks Dan, I almost finished my air-form I have all the gores together I have to do the top and rope at the bottom then I move onto mounting to the slab.

[@CakeApp]

Good testing Harry! The EPIC holds up!

[@AircreteHarry]

Thank you very much, it does indeed!

[@timklassen421]

Now this is what I call real Science thanks Harry sincerly Tim

[@AircreteHarry]

Appreciate you, brother!! Thank you 👍 👍

[@flick22601]

Great work Harry. I guess you cleared things up for all those skeptics.

[@AircreteHarry]

indeed!

[@off-griddomeliving8018]

Yeahhhhhhhhh ;) !!!

[@MrBeard-ig5zc]

Good show brother. I did not think it would burn. The big story, it seems to have a way higher r value than I would of guessed. I am impressed.

[@AircreteHarry]

Thanks!!

[@jasonvoss1984]

Epic indeed! And with a cosmetic cement render on top, I'd guess even that very minor damage would be less. Great demo.

[@AircreteHarry]

Thank You!

[@geodeaholicm4889]

impressive demonstration.

[@AircreteHarry]

Indeed!! And with great results

[@ChrisRasch]

Nice work! How did the heat affect the strength of the wall? What happens when you hit the burned spot with the sledge hammer?

[@AircreteHarry]

Very little on the outside layer it mad it weaker about a 1/4 inch. the rest was still strong.

[@ducagace1390]

Thank you Harry for this video, quite impressive in term of fire resistance. I'll would like to see earthquake and hurricane resistance of this building/air crete mix too. Wish you the best Harry, take care.

[@jeffkrupke3810]

Domegia dome in hawaii have put up with huge amounts earthquakes and hurricanes with no damage.

[@ducagace1390]

@@jeffkrupke3810 I know about Domegaia, that's how I've learned about AirCrete in the first place. They add 2 layer of fabric (one inside and one outside) for increase in tensile strenght, where the concrete lack. I would be curious how the EPIC mix is earthquake, hurricane proof. At the same time, a comparaison of geodesic dome structure in wood compare to aircrete/EPIC mix would be interesting.

[@AircreteHarry]

Epic is much stronger then Aircrete.

[@brotherbrovet1881]

@Aircrete Harry EPS foam is highly flammable. However, EPS foam used in construction is "California Fire Rated" CFR and is self-extinguishing. If you're just using scrap EPS vs. EPS that's CFR.... your results could be very different.

[@BlockTechGold]

I am looking to build with blocks made from aircreate/stryo/recycled plastic how do you think this strips of plastic bottles distributed into the mix will add to the strength? it should still be fireproof also but im thinking it will also be much stronger

[@scottpreston5074]

Awesome stuff. Have you ever heard of "fire stopping paint"? When hit with a torch it expands and forms a thermal barrier to the wood. Also, how water proof is aircrete; can it be used as a roof without any furthrt water proof coatings? Great series! And i thank you for all the great research. I can tell that those are large projects.

[@AircreteHarry]

I sell a paint The contains surrounding beads and its is fire proof I'm not sure where talking about the same paint though. Aircrete is not waterproof you would need a waterproof stucco coating on top of it.

[@TheRainHarvester]

@@AircreteHarry , could a water tank be made of the inside is coated with something? Our would it crack?

[@AircreteHarry]

@@TheRainHarvester Yes! you could make a water tank of this EPIC mix.

[@TheRainHarvester]

@@AircreteHarry , would regular aircrete work too?

[@AircreteHarry]

@@TheRainHarvester Yes Aircrete would work.

[@ShortwickCreations]

Couple of tests for you: 1) take a 5 gal pail and use it as a form making a 6 inch and 8 inch "barrel" around the outside of the pail. Once they dry use them a burn barrels. A normal house usually has 6 or 8 inch walls, so the 6 and 8 inch thick barrel would be similar. 2) Make this Foundry ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKLKnomsqbVsapY) with epic as a ultimate heat test, see how hot it will withstand.

[@watchthe1369]

451 degrees is the temperature to ignite paper or wood. It stood up for 5 minutes, pretty good. I would say to simulate a bit of preheating from a tree or house burning nearby, then give it some torch action. Using your papercrete block as a back stop for the other tests satisfied that. It does not support combustion awesome!

[@AircreteHarry]

Thanks!

[@inventanew]

awesome work

[@AircreteHarry]

Thank You!!

[@biospheres]

Have you looked into those nano-bubblers the Japanese invented ? combined with an Air-lift pump + interior graphene coated hoses and/or graphene admixture in cement for two story pumping...I have tried the graphene in my aircrete w/H2O repellent ....so it floats and does not get waterlogged / could be used as an insulated watering trough?..the downside was it took too long for me to cure.

[@AircreteHarry]

I would love to see your experiments.

[@TheRainHarvester]

Biospheres, is there a way to make water tanks with aircrete?

[@docvencil2222]

What is your recipe for paper aircrete

[@ShortwickCreations]

I'm wondering if the paper-create would work as a home insulation? How does it hold up against long term moisture and possible rot/mold.

[@StoicObserverS]

Nothing organic to rot or mold. Does not wick water the way standard concrete does. And it flows into all the voids really well.eith papercrete you could fill the entire void at once. With aircrete you can only fill approximately 1 foot to 18 inches in depth at once as too deep will force the bubbles pt and lose ypu r value

[@AircreteHarry]

Aircrete alone would work for home insulation.

[@docvencil2222]

Are you using aircrete, papercrete, and styroaircrete together? I need a recipe.

[@syfikit]

Harry is it cheaper to build than ICF type construction?

[@servantofthetruegod7596]

Try using accelerant, like gasoline to see if it has an affect

[@AircreteHarry]

I have done it, no effect!

[@servantofthetruegod7596]

@@AircreteHarry epic for real!! Great invention, I hope toy see fruits from it.. you deserve it!

[@mycool8980]

Have you tried using these mixes in shotcrete or gunite application?

[@jimh712]

I can see from your test how good it works... But from a build code point of view Things that i have encountered are usually rated at a 1 hour fire rating or 2 hour fire rating

[@AircreteHarry]

I'm not standing there for 2 hours. Lol. I do have some other burn text for the future.

[@Lilmiket1000]

maybe test it for moisture penetration or rotting? see if termites like it or something. seems that adding paper or anything organic to it is not a strong point. usually, organic things mixed with none organic things make it mold mildew and rot resistant but not proof.

[@simonlang2001]

I think requirement 4 code require at least 20 mins constant heat n some 30 mins most need an hour a wall is constructed in front of an oven and consultant heat is applied temperatures are checked a competition would be 2 use 1/2" 5\8" n 3\4" sheet rock andc1\4" n 1\2" hardie backer and wonder board as u are out side u loose a lot of heat

[@tmadden4951]

So 8 thumbs down 👎🏾for what? Haters

[@IronMan-yg4qw]

how does the heat affect the structural integrity of the concrete? if you hit it with a hammer, does it break more easily? and i wana see an hour long burn test too!

[@StoicObserverS]

I want to see a before and after drop test too. Will it fracture

[@AircreteHarry]

The wall is about 6 inches thick just the outer layer was weakened.

[@arecansawhillbille4463]

Have you did anything with aircrete and graphene ? Also, Do you think the helix rebar will work in aircrete?

[@anomikak1062]

little pig did some graphene tests. very solid I suspect for very different reasons than micro rebar. it's more chemical than just providing physical tensile.

[@anomikak1062]

what was the inside temp?

[@AircreteHarry]

I have not done any test with graphene yet What I'm looking forward to doing some in the future. Helix micro rebar does not work well with aircrete because of all the air pockets in aircrete it does not hold on to the rebar well.

[@AircreteHarry]

@@anomikak1062 64 degrees

[@arecansawhillbille4463]

@@AircreteHarry thanks for the onfo , also do you think helix will work in the epic mix? Also liked your test with bullet penetration in the past videos

[@va8ko8]

после большого пожара будет большой вопрос- использовать ли эти стены в дальнейшем? даже брусчатый дом, сгоревший частично, частично требует замены, ведь гарь будет присутствовать. а этот бетон после горения потеряет свои свойства- первоначальные или нет? вот какие вопросы нужно обрабатывать. даже кирпич сложно использовать в этом случае, не просто- невозможно, а ставится вопрос, хоть это и глина.

[@AircreteHarry]

Никто не сделал это тестирование еще так что мы не знаем.

[@watchthe1369]

The wood was nicely graphic, but you need to make a stucco coated section of wall to do the test right if you are claiming "House Wall" the papercrete is impressive.

[@DocJaeBass]

While I find the many questions interesting about if you have done this or that extreme test or tried an exotic mix I think they miss the real salient point. The epic and paper air crete have proven a very, even extremely safe material to live in. I live in a log cabin in the pine covered mountains and can guarantee it would be the LAST place I'd stay in during a forest fire.

[@AircreteHarry]

Thanks!

[@genocanabicea5779]

It didnt shatter either

[@justfly2525]

What is the R value of EPIC?

[@AircreteHarry]

Not sure its close to EPS foam board.

[@perpetuant5452]

papercrete is flammable?

[@AircreteHarry]

It probably is but my 2 samples are not

[@perpetuant5452]

@@AircreteHarry In other demos from other videos, it wasn't flammable either so good going.

[@markwilson8118]

How is it if you leave it in a barrel of water submerged? ? Love ya'll

[@jodibaas6954]

Water is my question If it is under dirt like side of a hill and high ground water Will it seep Paper aircrete specifically

[@MrBeard-ig5zc]

I will bet it will perform great. But only time will tell that. Harry has a good brain I will bet there is something in the formula with respect to water/moisture. I bet you home boy has it covered.

[@jodibaas6954]

Hopefully he can enlighten us Or suggest a natural answer to coat or add to it

[@markwilson8118]

I'm just very curious what 24 hours of soaking will do

[@AircreteHarry]

I'll do that test just for you next.

[@philliptoone]

I am curious to see how it stands up to being doused in gasoline and lit on fire.

[@MrBeard-ig5zc]

Try it and put it on KZbin

[@AircreteHarry]

Nothing will happen, but I will do it anyway for you!

[@philliptoone]

@@AircreteHarry I believe you but would love to see it. I think others would like to see it as well.

[@StoicObserverS]

That was my first thought. I want to see it with an accelerant. A long burn with an accelerant and then test it for compression and brittleness.

[@off-griddomeliving8018]

The donation jar is officially open to be filled for that experiment with ga$oline ;)
