Ramming Again - Let's Finish This Wall -

[@JamalHashe]

It takes lots patience, dedication, determination, resolve and lots of love to build this huge structure of a building. Hats off to you guys.

I've learned from work that safety is no joke. One of our guys fell off a trust 35 feet in the air and fortunately for him, he landed on an awning 15 feet below him. He had a safety harness on, but he didn't clip in onto the trust. The awning slowed down his fall and then the awning gave way and fell into a big pile of ropes. God was definitely watching over him that day. All he got was a few scratches from the plywood awning... Lucky man.

Whoa sounds like he was very fortunate. I'd rather not take the risk...anymore LOL

I’m doing a bachelors in civil engineering and my end goal is to work in rammed earth/sustainable architecture. Watching Your channel is honestly amazing. I bought a small plot of land as a teen and I’m hoping to one day do what you’re doing when I can afford it. Thank you so much❤ this content honestly shouldn’t be free because the work and effort to finance this project is so much. But a broke college student like me is loving this.

That sounds like an amazing project! You will have to keep us updated when you start building!

Here’s a question for you. Can you ram Earth today above freezing if it’s going to be below freezing in a day or two?

Nice harness!

How long Will your walls last? Will the rebar, eventually rust, expand and burst your walls? I know that in modern concrete the longevity is limited to Ability of the concrete, to passivate the pH, which eventually deteriorate due to carbonation from atmospheric CO2. Roman concrete last forthousands of years because it does not have any rebar, have you considered using fiberglass or basalt, rebar, or forgoing rebar all together and working with compression walls?
