- Framing the structural metal Armature reinforcement for our ferrocement wall. In this video I show you how I bend rebar and cattle panels with simple hand tools. Also we explore the fluid design process and I show you how I use the drawn plans as a guide to keep me on track but at the same time I don't hesitate to change features on the fly as I build.
At the end of the video I talk about the format of these videos and how I am trying to make the content I would want to see. I mention Doug Lacy of Shambhala Village. Here is a link to his TH-cam channel. / shambhalavillage I think his videos are much more informative then mine are but I assure you I am working on improving my public speaking skills. I Want Doug Lacy to post some more long format videos. Here is a link to his Facebook Page If you want to see some of his more current projects. / shambhala-village-1085...

Now building my 2nd ferrocement house.... Videos like this are really helpful! The longer format shows your progress and including mistakes helps the rest of us to learn so we can avoid the same mistakes ourselves... Thank you for posting these videos!
I enjoy the full videos where you show the good and bad of the whole process.
But I am also fully interested in it as a professional standpoint. So if I was just a regular person not planning on working with it myself. Then having a second edited version for that group of people would benefit you for traffic. But please don't nix the long videos! Thank you for your long effort and work to put these out there! Really appreciate it especially when you do show the mistakes and how to correct and improve them as well!
Thank you!
Your metal armature is really well done. It looks great, unlike many of these project on youtube...
Your subject allows and dictates a level of detail that you ARE providing. Your skeleton is complete, and magnificent if I may comment, the flesh will have a place to reside for a very long time. I am surfing for all the fire proof methods in the aftermath of Boulder County's fires. I can't look at all the subdivisions, some that I helped build, and not see them all as piles of kindling instead of peoples homes and lives as they should be. Excellent workmanship Mr. Ben do carry on!
Happy with the long format!! After watching this I think I'm ready to give up on my original idea of using cinder blocks retaining walls to terrace the slope in the back yard and use a more free formed ferrocement wall with incorporated steps. Thanks for your enthusiasm.
hi! awesome work!! but I have one question, you fix the rebars directly in the ground, could this lead to rust problems in a future? i want to make something like you
Looking forward to seeing the next installment. Your work is inspiring !!!
Waiting for part 8 :) I enjoy long duration videos :D If you want to reduce it to 16mins or less thn that then still its OK :))
& thanks for the awesome videos :-))
Awesome video thanks bro. Really appreciate this bro. Keep long format videos and keep up the good posts.
Great job
The 7 11 stair pattern has an overhang of an inch and a half, this way your foot goes under the next step up.
You can either lean the riser or vertical part or keep the riser perpendicular and add a lip, preferably half round so shoes don’t get snagged as people walk up and down.
The main objective is that each step is exactly the same as the others. Accidents can be expected when either the top step or the bottom step is different.
Great job .... so good to see in detail. Keep posting long vedios.
Looking for thin concrete solutions I had found GRFC/GRC years ago. But I was always thinking if steel does not corrode, steel can be used. Its much cheaper.
A week ago I was made aware of Ferrocement in a Video about the roof a a newly buildt event centrum in Athens. Also I found out that the famous architect Renzo Piano (who also designed the building in Athens) had made his Yacht out of ferrocement.
As a general rule (Europe, germay) corroding steel should be 4 cms (1 1/2 inches) away from the surface. Near the sea its even more critical.
When looking at the video series and especially here at min 9:00 its the 1st time that I see most of the stuff is corrosion protected. But not all. How is the rule/experience?
Also, it seems I cannot get the small hole net made out of a metal sheet. The other stuff yes. Whats the optimal rectangle whole sitze? 9,5mm (1/3 of an inch) is available.
How can I search on ebay? From there i should be able to find something similar in Europe. (Even on the continent whilst it would be more easy in UK).
Ben - where are you sourcing your wire matting and armature for best pricing? Love your work and appreciate you posting all your videos!
ได้ประโยชน์มาก ง่ายและประหยัด
what is the difference between hexagon mesh dense mesh in terms of benefits of using and disavantages also
why you used this thin mesh instead of hexagon mesh ? i want to know the difference of using this dense mesh and hexagon mesh.
How many floors can we built with ferrocement
I'm just jumping in a couple minutes into my viewing to ask if you buy your hardware cloth and panels retail? They seem pretty pricy that way, and it looks like you're using lots of it.
OK, now I'm editing after finishing the vid. I really like this format, I found it very informative. I'd say for me personally this is great. I don't know what your intentions are for the ferrocement videos, but if your target is potential users of the technique, then I doubt they'd have a problem with it. Maybe try some shorter videos that are focussed on single techniques or processes? I'd watch those too.
We shopped around for the best deal on hardware cloth and the cheapest place we have found it was on Amazon. I'm not even kidding. Our local metal supply businesses don't carry hardware cloth for some reason and buying it from Lowe's, Home Depot or the Tractor supply is very expressive. We have the Amazon prime and do free shipping to our house out in the unincorporated county for cheaper then we can find it at a store. How crazy is that.
Thanks for the feedback on the format of these videos. I am trying to be an advocate of ferrocement building and share what I know about it. The way I do it certainly isn't as fast as what I see others do online. Also I think I am using more metal then I need to. I am thinking about making a video where I look back at some construction photos of some of the other houses out here and look at how they stood up over the decades. Then compare that to what the original guidelines set out by the guy who developed the neighborhood, and then to my own work recently. I have photos of most of the houses out here and some were built with rebar on three or four foot centers and others on one foot centers. All these houses are still standing and most of them are buried. None have caved in or failed in any structural way. The biggest problem we have had out here was the failure of water proofing. I think the future of these things is to use a modern basement waterproofing membrane like a spray on for brush on type with an external insulation envelope of some sort. But I am kind of rambling here. The point is I think I might add other types of videos to the mix like you suggested in addition to the long format work videos. Make as many of these at least as I have ideas for.
Amazon. Wow. I guess my follow up question would be why the hardware cloth vs multiple layers of something like chicken wire etc? Maybe you've addressed that in another video?
I don't know why i prefer hardware cloth. I have never really even given chicken wire a try. We have one house out here that was almost only chicken wire. I should make a stand alone video for it. Bob Foote who developed the neighborhood taught that you could use one layer of hardware cloth per side or two layers of chicken wire per side. I'll use chicken wire in my next project and see if I have been missing out on anything.
Does anyone know what tool he is using to tie the wire together at 1:07. I'm looking to do ferrocement myself and this would really help.
Pigtail wire tool you can get it at lowes
Save money on cement and steel by using rammed earth tires for foundations and vertical walls
I get bored with waiting so would want to see fast progress with snippets of detailed instruction.

Hindi please
I have been thinking about this. Ill ask a some of my Hindi speaking friends what they would charge me to translate a transcript of these videos. Hopefully I can work something out.
Way too much overkill
