Rammed Earth House Construction Part 2: Solo Build | The Wall with Windows, and Doors
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 окт 2024
- In this second part of my rammed earth house construction series, I build the walls by myself. This involves a lot of shuttering work, as well as making windows and doors using frames.
Rammed earth is a sustainable and durable building material that is made from a mixture of earth, water, and lime. It is a good choice for people who want to build a low-impact and eco-friendly home.
In this video, I show you the entire process of building rammed earth walls, from setting up the shuttering to ramming the earth into place. I also show you how to make windows and doors using frames.

This is a beautiful video of what a man can achieve if he puts his heart into it. Hats off Brother. Absolutely loved your wall with the mountains especially the ones on the lower level. Awesome!!!!
What do you do about the holes formed by the rods that go through the wallnto hold the forms together please? Ibguess you fill it, but how, when and is it as strong as the rest of the wall?
Also if you could make a video explaining how you manage to make tye mountains so beautifully with a height if 4 feet when each lift should be technically about 8 inches.compressed down to 5 or 6 inches?
thank you. your kind words are an inspiration
very nice pak , very good video
thank you
Great 👍
Thank you 👍
Wov, this is really awesome brother!! You have done all this single handedly, thats incredible . Please do let me know if you need a volunteer. I live in Bangalore , I can join you if that can be of any help.
Very good,iam looking forward to the complete build
Thanks 👍
What is the name of the metallic rods used for supporting the boards?..Those ones that when removed, a hollow space is left inside the rammed wall.
these are 10 - 12 mm threaded rods. Usually after removal, we need to fill in the hollow space, I have kept that open as at that time I had planned to conduct classes and see the impact.
small suggestion, buy some tennis balls or cheaper foam balls in bulk & use them to cover the ends of those rods....for safety....
They should have been cut to 1.5 ft , but since it will be a waste I did not cut them into smaller sizes, Thats why it's looking risky.
@@BangaloreFarmer What is the name of those rods?
@@atoncybiker2022 they are called threaded rods, the the hallow ones are curtain rods cut to the size of the wall.
@@BangaloreFarmer Thank you so much.
I am learning quite much from your videos.
Thanks for taking your time to reply.
Awsome inspiring video. It will be great bro if you could please share the detaied specification of size of plywood taken, Rod and pipe width and length size. Any other suggestions for improvement etc.The best part in everything is to know and its amazing that you choosen be solo for your house project.❤ These videos will be inspiration for all those amd community as a whole who aspire for sustainable living in rural part of the country.❤😍 Looking forward for the complete video. Namaskar 🙏🙏
Thank you for your kind words. The next part of the video is on roof fabrication, and Windows + Door . After this I plan to make a video on the learnings soon.
It's great individual work for building your home, You should be to be aware of how many hours you work each day, Otherwise this work will seriously affect your health....Be Careful 🎉
Great work and I am sure you are thoroughly enjoying. Small clarification..what is the reason to use so high forms?. Will the labour/time be saved? Will it not be convenient or simple to keep using say might be 1-2 metres height? and then keep going up once the lower layers stabilise? Having such high walls to work at one go impair the compaction?
its actually only 8ft high. I cut the plywood into half so that I can handle it alone. the choice is about convenience, in my case I wanted to set the frame just once (to save on labour time) and then finish the wall at one go. Doing it in smaller frames will mean additional work to safely place the structure on the below one.
Do we need to put beams at the doors n windows? What materials have you used for that
Yes, you need some support. I used metal frames and then placed kadapa stone slab above that. The height above that is less than 2 ft, so this was okay. But if you are planning to have more height , then you need to look for stronger frame and reinforcement.
@@BangaloreFarmer thank you
@@BangaloreFarmer I am wondering how the windows / doors will be managed in this type of construction? If you are using kadapa stone will the ramming on top of it not break the stone ? what is the thickness of metal frames you are using for windows so that it can take up the force of ramming
Respect bro.....no words for your efforts & dedication....best wishes...how can I get in touch with u?
we have been hoping to open for visits for a year. hopefully we will be open by August of this year :)
