the only thing i dont like about hempcrete is how most people are just turning i into mulch before mixing. why not splinter it? pulverize it to smaller particles so it creates an even stronger bond.

I can see some applications for hemp crete but you know the rammed concrete builders will be working over time to discredit it while they continue to try to sell it as ‘green’. But when all is said and done, formed cob outperforms hempcrete and concrete on every important measure. Its load bearing where Hempcrete needs a timber frame, its fire,termite,damp,mould, vermin proof. Far more so than Hempcrete can ever hope to be. And unlike Hempcrete and Concrete it has been proven to last for centuries with very low maintenance and no loss of performance as long as you keep a good roof on it. Concrete is a nightmare. My biggest concern with hempcrete would be its reliance on a timber frame to maintain its integrity. Its an infill product really and should be named as such. The trouble is that over time the expansion and contraction of the timber frame will work against the Hempcrete infill and create gaps for Termites, insects, vermin, etc to attack the frame. This is the same problem as straw bale houses get and it starts even before the house is finished. With Earth building you have a product already available under your feet that cannot be broken down any further. Nature has already done that for you. You just mix it with water and pile it up. You will never have to worry about anything eating it, rotting it, burning it, breaking it down.

Very good information in this video over all. I learned a lot and it is a very cool substance. My main problem with this video is that I almost fell asleep a couple times. It was very boring and monotone in nature even though it had valuable information. One of the things this group did well was use a lot of helpful visuals that let the person viewing have a better idea on what it looked like and how it works. Good project over all.

After researching this product further, it is superbly more reasonable to use hempcrete instead of concrete. HOWEVER, hempcrete is no where near as strong as concrete. As far as I can postulate, the market would be using hempcrete if not for this fact, the stigma around the plant, and overall availability. If the price was about 20% cheaper than concrete and the stigma was removed, we would probably see a lot more of this material being used today. Some of the market would still choose to use the more robust and stronger concrete with insulation. Anyway, pass the joint.

Hempcrete is not meant to replace concrete. I think the name "hempcrete" is not that great because it gives people this impression. It's purpose is for insulation and using it to build that walls of a home. Not to support the home.

A question for the makers of the video: I am assuming that the lime that is mixed with the hemp shiv is slaked lime. If so, when it is claimed that hempcrete is carbon-negative, is the energy involved in the production of the slaked lime factored in?

Hemp grow worldwide, so it's very adaptable and resilient. It also grow and spread like (literally) weed and even grow much more faster than any tree in this world. So growing it is very easy and fast. The only reason it is still so expensive is because it is forbidden or limited permitted that the production of hemp is unnecessary pushed down, that result to low supply and medium/high demand. If it gets totally legal, that will result very high supply and high demand. It will become at least 50% cheaper than now.
