    Great video! They all look good to me!
    I have built a couple straw bale homes here in Canada, one even had hemp bales. The hemp bales were hell to work with, the stringyness did not allow us to use our chainsaws to shape them for windows and such. wheat and barley bales were really nice to work with though. It was a slow process and I think this pre-fab idea would be a better use of time and materials. Less commuting necessary. We always had timber frames and roofs with large overhangs. When building with natural materials it is always good to have a good hat and a good pair of boots for your building! (large overhangs on the roof and up out of the mud!)

      @@MrSpringfellow Good question. I would expect that its biodegradability would be no worse than the timber supports. I have seen one source that indicated that, as a result of it being mixed with lime, it effectively becomes petrified, thus no longer biodegradable, but this would need to be independently confirmed.

Such a better alternative to just dumping in landfills and oceans. It could also be used for public spaces, walkways, statues I don’t see why we shouldn’t since it’s so unbiodegradable.

    I'm rebuilding after the Camp Fire that burned down Paradise CA with a composite interlocking block called Faswall. It's 85% recycled pallet wood and 15% cement. You dry stack it inserting rebar then fill with concrete. Like the hempcrete, it's lightweight, insulating, soundproofing, and you can work it with hand tools. Gives about an R35 wall. I'd love to use hempcrete but don't want to wait for the laws to catch up.

    How are the electrical and plumbing installed in these structures? Is Hempcrete being used as infill in Structural insulated panels?

    • @technosaurus3805
      @technosaurus3805 4 года назад +1

      No, SIPs typically require load bearing infill to meet the S (structural) part of SIP. There is at least one company that uses a triangular network of dowels in their SIPs to meet the requirements that could swap out the foam, but then the panels would be too heavy.
      Ideally you would be able to pour hempcrete between a structural outer curtain wall with high thermal mass (brick,block, stone, etc...) and an inner wall with double layer overlapping drywall. This minimize thermal bridging, allows unlimited R-value with proportionate sound attenuation and the "crete" part eliminates the compaction problem of blow in cellulose as well as the bowing problems they cause at the base after several years of settling (to see exaggerated examples look at an old shooting range with rock filled wooden separating walls) If you prefer pure stick construction, hempcrete fill would work well with staggered studs to eliminate noise and thermal bridging.
      I'm not saying that SIPs couldn't be made with hempcrete, but the weight pushes it into the realm of commercial construction with access to more heavy equipment.
      You can make your own pseudo hempcrete by adding hydrated lime to the water in spray-on cellulose (just use hemp based cellulose if you can) When it dries it will either absorb CO2 and resemble limestone or bond with the silicates/aluminates in the hemp as in traditional concrete... It takes a long time to cure compared to portland cement base products, but cures into a complex structure that bonds to the fibers and can look like pure marble if you have a talented plasterer.

      They should team up with the interlocking bricks company... Cost-efficient AND time-efficient! If they use waste anyway, they could build houses for the homeless that way and even unexperienced volunteers could make any house.
