Holy smokes! I’ve finally found a light, strong, and fireproof material with promise for retrofitting my California home against wildfires! I’ve been looking at fiber cement but it still transfers heat - foamcrete sounds amazing!
I worked for a company is southeast Michigan that pumped this lightweight concrete. This stuff has been around a long time. We used a product called E____________ to make the foam we injected into concrete. This was mixed into a nine sack grout mix in a concrete truck. We then used piston pumps to pump it through two inch hoses. It was poured on plywood at one and a half inches thick. After it set up it was troweled. This was a floor underlayment intended to be covered with a floor good. The purpose of it was for sound proofing and fire protection on second and third floors of apartments and condos and other types of buildings.
QUESTIONS: 1. If you were to build the same shed how long would it take you now, vs. the first time? 2. What is the price difference vs conventional construction? 3. What is the life span of the air Crete vs conventional construction? 4. Is the air Crete strong enough to build 2, 3, 4, stories? Great video, keep up the good work. Thanks in advance.
I’ve been watching you throughout your development cycle, and have been impressed at your determination to make it work. I am a retired Mechanical Engineer from the high tech field, and your iterative process has been right on target. I ‘have plethora of project I could use Air Crete for and because I have a very fragile back, this has given me new hope of accomplishing things I’ve not been able to consider before. Thank you and God Bless.
Ive been looking for others like you to help a project to evolve. A tiny home construction to take a 40 acre farm no longer used into a microfarm collective and techie village. Affordable housing and a place to create and grow food effectively.
Watched one video and hit that subscribe button right away. First, The love and admiration you have for your wife just radiates and I can see on her face the love she has for you. Second, this video is just what I needed as an introduction to Air crete. It was very informative and very useful that you showed all the different and marvelous properties of Air crete. Once the properties are understood this helps spur the imagination for other uses. For now, I have one particular use in mind and I feel certain Air crete will serve this use well. *THANKS!*
Big shout out to you two wonderful people, "it better to give, then receive" , that you Mr. Do and a special Mrs. Do. I've watched from the Get Go!. Double Thumbs UP
Just came across your video... what you did with panelized foamcrete is a vision of mine almost 30 years when in Costa Rica on a volunteer trip... super cool to see someone bring to life what I thought was possible a long time ago. Great job my friend... very impressed!
Wow! I’m at a loss for WORDS! I want to do this SOO BAD!! Ever since I became permanently disabled, I have been looking for something to do.... to keep me busy,.... to GO BACK TO WORK!! This looks like something I can do, WITHOUT hurting myself! I NEED to know MORE!
I’ve been a fan for a couple months. I need to watch everything! I’m very sure you’ve single handedly solved a huge problem to build a sustainable home and workshop for everyone. Thanks. Love this channel.
Think you could put truck bed liner spray in your foam maker? It'd be great to seal and protect those aircrete panels if you could... Just spray it in the outside of the building and smooth with a trowel... Or something... Military has found that multiple layers inside a concrete and/or cinder block building can stop spalling from penetrative impacts. Even if the bullet penetrates, the wall fragments are stopped and the wall retains it's integrity due to the bed liner sheathing... Foaming it up might make it even cushier... Just a thought. Plasticized foam protective layer... What with concrete's brittleness....
You two have pioneered and amassed amazing and enviable knowledge and experience in investigating, creating and putting aircrete to work. You both exemplify just how passion, ingenuity, determination and a good amount of elbow grease results in a building and construction breakthrough on so many integral levels for shelter, protection, durability, simplicity, energy and fuel conservation, etc. Major kudos to you both!
I won't deny your aircrete held up in your furnace. I would have thought the bubbles in the concrete would cause the air pockets to expand and blast the outside of the concrete apart. So the outside would just keep flaking away as each layer would be blown apart. I guess I was wrong on my assumption. Great videos! I think will be viewing all your videos about aircrete and see about building my own shed!
Awesome Channel! Amazing info & informative, valuable no fluff tutorials & examples, etc.!!! Very glad I found & subbed you! Thank You Darwin & Family!🤗😊
Salt of the earth. The mainstream media and entertainment industry needs to highlight people and families like yours. Sadly we are force fed vile programs like the Kardashian’s and jersey shore. Thank you for sharing and God bless.
@Steve Logue Most Trump supporters use the internet and raw footage as our source of news. TV's are full of propaganda and garbage. Internet is too but it has both propaganda and the truth.
I love your video AAA+++ I've been putting off building a forge for the right moment. Now I can put up a fireproof building and make forge too boot. I'll have to watch more your video's to make that happen . ..oh man good work you guys. I'm excited now.
Do you think air crete would do a good job of absorbing traffic sound? What about using them as hanging panels to reduce sounds in loud rooms bleeding out? Does your shed dampen the sound coming from outside well when the doors are shut? Does the shed dampen power tools from annoying neighbors? Does your shed stay cool in the summer, warm in the winter?
@Honey Do Carpenter Have you tried to add fiber to Air Crete. Im assuming you might have since you were certified and should know the strength fiber adds to concrete. If you have, what kind of result did you get?
I'm impressed. Concrete is something I've worked with for years (every now and again), and I've seen some failures, but never with aircrete. Yet, I still do not have the confidence in this light solution. lol. perhaps aircrete would make a nice concrete form. lol.
I have been playing with AirCrete for a while now myself. Experimenting with this that and the other. I first found this on domegaia website as I was interested in building dome homes on our property with AirCrete. Good luck in your endeavors and it seems you are having fun with it!
Hey thank you so much for being so thorough with this video, with info about air create. I just found this product a friend of mine told me about it. I’ve been looking for a new way to build a home efficiently and cost effective also earth friendly. I think this is the new wave of the future. Thank you for sharing your knowledge looking forward to watching more. 😊
well.. I have subscribed for a while now and do get alerts. I rarely catch the sat shows but catch them later on. would love to be entered in the contest. I think I am ready to use one. first a dome then a greenhouse foundation and tank support for aquaponics. love this stuff
Back in the early eighties I work for a company that did swimming pools and we're used to mix Portland cement and zonolite and we would trial the pool out there was places it was 2 3 4 in thick but they would turn around and let it sit and then they put a rubber liner in it and I always knew it had to be pretty stout to handle all that water pressure cool job thumbs up
As an engineer I’m sure you know that placing bags on concrete on a random span of concrete is not a proper strength test. Pour some smaller samples and test them to the point of failure with a hydraulic press. Then compare to traditional concrete. Would love to see some actual data on whether aircrete is better.
As an engineer i'm pretty sure this wont hold up against any conventional stress tests at all. It even looks more costly then "Ytong" which is easier to install, is ideal for non-supporting walls, has high resistance properties against freezing temperatures, hot temperatures, water..., fire... (Autoclaved) Aerated Concrete Blocks are already patented by several companies/countries. so you might wanna check up on this because you could be committing patent infringement.
@@EnricoRossignoli89 no, skyscrapers are built out of regular concrete. With only one difference they are built to flex. various methods are used, like radial dampers, hydraulic cylinders, .... Japanese skyscrapers use some interesting methods like a counterweight in the center combined with hydraulic cylinders...
I initially came over to you from when you were working on Dirtpatch Heaven’s stove and the oven, and the garden bed. I’ve been excited to see you grow and have shared many videos. I’m hoping to get someone eventually to build your rocket stove so I no longer have to try to raise enough money to buy kerosene every year! THAT would sure help with my budget!!
I would like to see your span test without the metal stud frame. If poured in a mold they could be made T&G for a locking fit. Also a crush test would be nice to see. Just some ideas. Keep up the good work.
IT WAS THROUGH YOU THAT KNEW AIR CRET AND SEARCHED MORE ... OPENED MY EYES ,, THERE ARE MANY SECRETS FOR ME BUT YOU ARE MY MASTER THANK YOU //SÃO PAULO BRASIL
I just started watching your show and I LOVE IT! I need to know what is the ratio of foam to cement or concrete. Because I am confused what you are using.

great share and info but FYI concrete is a highly energy intensive product. The manufacture of the cement requires very high temp in a gas furnace insulated with ceramics..It isnt just mined from the earth. Look into it!
Does the material allow water to flow through all the time, thus requiring some type of sealer. My question comes from if I decided use it as a roof material. Have you ever placed rebar through the material and spray the material for strength?

Definitely worth trying
Congratulations for your inventiveness. Thanks for sharing!
Could you form this up with rebar and wire mesh to make a solid aircrete structure instead of making panels to construct the walls?
Thanks Mr. and Mrs. H!
I love the Tech he is using. it's nice how he puts this together.
Like the air crete can be used for so much. Been looking at a lot of alternative building methods
Love how your wife supports this and helps you. Power couple. Bless you brother.

I wonder if this could be used for an outdoor pizza oven. Would it crack? Would it leech water into the inside from rain?
👍already new to your Channel I'm needing to learn this so what a marathon of videos to watch in hopes to realy do a great job.Thanks for your tips.
I am really fascinated by this stuff. Who first discovered this stuff?
Hi, I totally love this product. Could you tell me what goes into the foam itself?
Thank you. I wanted to build an expensive little house and have watched bunches of videos. This, so far, has been the best
I like it, I wonder if they have that in Australia. I like how you started giving your wife awesome credit, you guys make a great team.

Consider color metal roofing trim for your studs. Those
pieces are often created as needed locally. They have matching self-taping
screws.
How about Aircrete roofing tiles? I wonder how they'd hold in the elements and if they'd crack.
Doesn't work as a roofing tile, because it has to be covered from the elements/weather.
If you want to know more about it search for Ytong.
He poured water right through it at the end. I see a humidity problem
This looks cool as all get out. I’ve never heard of it before but I can already see a ton of projects that I can get accomplished.
Keep at it. Im ready for this.
