Thank you, Francis & Cameron, for this interview & content. I am really hooked. I have been looking for a material for my house. I think I am going to review this one further.
Hi Cameron, Thank you for the insightful content. Could you share with me the number Lubega Francis. I have been looking for builder with specialist knowledge in ISSB construction. Stephen
Francis, thanks for the very good video. I want to build with these in Australia, and I will have a double block wall, and it will be rendered on the outside and inside walls. So I have 2 questions: 1) If I want to render it, should I ask for a mould with straight sides, that is, without a bevel on the edges? 2) The blue surrounds on the windows on this house, is it rendered to look like lintels? Or are they concrete lintels?
i wish i had the video but i did see another youtube video show that with the interlocking blocks you actually spend more money on concreting the corners than the mortar used with regular blocks ... but the video sounds correct in saying you can do it faster with interlocking so that will be cheaper .... now i did find this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-23MTZuq6bec.html that shows a cheap soil mortar that is strong but is it strong enough to get approved by a city building department
Hi.. Francis... what's the size of the brick..and weight..is it easily manageable to place and construct.. conventional clay bricks a bricklayer uses one hand...
How to check the local soil whether it is fit for this purpose. And can we make it through hand instead of that machine for compressing. For single small house the machine cost is too high. It can be combinedly buy for the eco friendly community.
bonjour francis c est magnifique se que tu fais . j ai un projet de construction j aimarai echange avec toi , voici mon adresse mail ou tu peux me contacter : emodany37@gmail.com. cordialement Dany
everything is built on earth , so even if where you're at is all concrete just break the concrete up to get to the soil and then dig down for all the soil you need ,, that is unless you live on a volcano that might be the only one instance where you can not get to the soil that's below your feet
i think for the interlocking if they don't put plaster over the bricks then they can spray on this liquid stuff that prevents water & bugs to get into the cracks but this spray stuff you need to re spray every 3 - 5 years ,, i think that is what's giving a shine to the bricks in the background
