Wooh! Wonderful job. This video deserves a million views...let me leave this comment here as a reminder, even if it takes how long when the video hit 1million view I would request someone to hit and like my comment
I am saving this video! I am drawing plans of building a rammed earth farmhouse but have always wondered how a rammed earth floor can look like and how feasible it would be considering that I live in the tropics. Thank you so much.
Can’t wait to show my 85 year old mother who grew up in a tin shed earthen floor shack in far North Queensland , they had a simple mud floor packed hard and you just lightly sprinkled it with water every few days to stop the dust. Nowhere near flash as this floor.
Roman heater by ground are still working 2000 years after making because they used air to eat. All systems with water will not past 50 years with multi layers pipes, 30 years with pvc pipes. Ancients were much wise The name was: Hypocauste
Looks amazing. I was just wondering if the team had mixed the soil and gravel into separate layers of large, medium, and small, compacted separately, the finished product would have been smoother. Just my observation; what do you think?
Thanks! There are so many variations of the method because the material is quite flexible and relatively easy to work with so this could potentially work! We could have been a lot more precise when finishing the floor to grind off stones and spread the slurry more evenly. We also had trouble with the polishing machine getting stuck, making the floor rougher. Although generally it is preferable to create a homogeneous, even earth for compacting. This floor is ideally compacted from 15cm loose to a finished 10cm thickness.
In this case yes - there was an existing concrete floor slab. However, the floor can be laid onto compacted hardcore / foam-glass or even a suspended timber construction, providing the subfloor is immovable and sealed from damp.

Love the layout of the steps that it takes to complete. Thank you
Thanks!
Amazing !

Stoked I just stumbled on this video. Thanks :)
Cheers!
Beautifully , I love it.
What are the differences in quality/durability between this and a regular earthen floor??
👍🏾😎🔥🔥🔥

Claramente se puede ver que si han hecho su tarea para éste tipo de construcción.

A soil cement floor is much faster and easier. trowel out the mix and use a plastic milk crate to press into it. Give a nice spanish tile look.
Can you come for a work place in DRCongo, we want to build school in rural area using ecological materials. Loved the results.
Sounds interesting, would love to hear more! Could you send me an email?

Is this layed over concrete?
In this case yes - there was an existing concrete floor slab. However, the floor can be laid onto compacted hardcore / foam-glass or even a suspended timber construction, providing the subfloor is immovable and sealed from damp.
