- Foam concrete is a type of light concrete mixed with special additives which give to it outstanding characteristics.
Excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, 3 times higher than conventional bricks and can be compared with the characteristics of wood. No additional insulation is required! Reduce heating and cooling costs up to 40%.
Foam-concrete is completely clean environmentally friendly material.
Belongs to the group of non-combustible materials.
Foam-concrete is low weight material. It gives direst impact on cost reduction for transportation, use of reinforcing steel for foundation, labor costs, save time for finishing work because of already smooth surface.
The most modern way of building foam-concrete houses at the highest standards and competitive prices.
Cost-effective especially for construction of settlements. In case of flood it can be dry in 24hours.
These guys are better at building a house than making a video about building a house. They have the correct priorities.
As they should be

Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.
I grew up in South Africa until 1974, when I left and came to Europe, and in the last few years I was there, a company called Gazbeton (French for Gas Concrete) started building houses and other buildings from foam concrete. They sold it in long blocks about 1ft wide (from memory) and 9" deep. I can't remember the length, but around 10-12 ft. The mouldings had a frog in the end, so the corner verticals were erected, then the walls filled in between them, all joined by putting concrete between them down the frog. Where the sections were too ,long, they could be cut with a simple hand wood saw - the concrete was made of tiny bubbles, like Aero-chocolate, and the teeth of the saw would simply break the bubble walls. They advertised it as having very good thermal properties - easy enough to believe, as it was full of trapped air.
They had built their HQ office building with it - 4 stories high.
I just looked for it on UA-cam, and I see they are still going strong - not only in S. Africa but all over the place. There are lots of videos.
In short - foam concrete is not new.
That was another material. Material You're talking about is made on factories from sand, aluminum and lime with some other minor amount of chemicals. All those components are mixed and due to chemical reaction CO2 is produced by material itself, this CO2 gas creates bubbles in blocks. When material is dry enough it has to be baked in huge industrial autoclave and this completes all chemical reactions in material and transforms it into single monolith crystalline unit. This is literally artificial crystal, it doesn't have any organic components at all. Later huge unit has to be cut to smaller blocks and this kind of structural material is named as "gas silicate block". Overall this is very high-tech material, which can be made ONLY in industrial conditions. It's effective, reliable and not exposed to microorganisms and pests, because it doesn't have organics.
To clarify, i want to repeat - You've described absolutely another material.
Material, shown in this video has absolutely different purposes and components. It can be used directly at construction site, it can be mold anywhere, but it's not monolith crystal and it has organic components in materials. In most of cases organic components are based on proteins and they are needed to create foam.
My best wishes.

We had similar houses built in 1970 by Roberts construction for district councils and at that time it did alleviate the housing shortages. The assembled concrete panels were joined, the structures are still solid to this day.
I remember pre-fabricated housing units made from foamed concrete being suggested for UN refugee work a looong time ago.

This is in Serbia. What building standards are required there?
@@Og-Judy How do you know its in Serbia? As there is no houses nearby tells me that it's more of a place you would go to sleep over once in a while and not to actually live in it.

Fema should get a contract with these people and use this company to build houses for all these people who have lots there homes,and are devastated ,we can use this company in Louisiana.
In theory .. good idea. In practice... I'd be worried about the environment it's in like that.
I like how realistic it is that exactly one guy does precisely 100% of the finish work with zero perceived effort.
I like how the tile the installer is laying isn't the same tile in the finished house.
or it would be plumber, sparky, painter and decorator all together with their tools in there fighting each other lol. sounds like modern building sites to be fair.
I remember watching this years ago. It popped up on my feed again even though I didn't hit the like button. Hitting it now.
That guy is a renderer, kitchen guy and electrician , plumber, concreter, waterproofer, all in one!
If you noticed , there is flaws in all the jobs he did..Cabinet doors are uneven at bottom, faucet on left side is lower....People who are jack of all trades never really pay close attention to detail and the fine crafting of a skill. They CAN do it somewhat but not as well as a skilled person dedicated to a certain trade would..ie electrician , carpenter , HVAC ........
try duck. it was an "equal opportunity build".
whiteflag
A jack of all trades,an master of none.
Wellcome to Serbia (yes this is serbian company from Zemun), where life makes most of people learn everything, not saying everyone is a pro and lives off it, but everyone can do everything good enough for himself and you know since unemployment is high, everyone survives in any company he can untill a beter job opens up. Personally I dont remember last time I paid someone for example a painting job, and Im on half way to becoming electrical engineer who is supposed to design building instalations so houses this small are never a problem.
FUN FACT: Most ppl here choose to do jobs themselves cause it is often better, and worker mostly doesnt know a lot more than you anyway, but he doesnt care about how nice it is done, so ppl actually choose to work themselves - for themselves, and like i said ppl are usually poor so f paying someone to do it worse than you anyway :)
"Ihr Fachpartner für Baustoffe." ;D great video, thank you for sharing.
Two things to note:
You need to make sure that the cure (concrete) is fully dry or nearly dry (3 to 5 weeks) before you use it for your walls, etc.
And you have to use a vibration tool for the concrete. This tool ist vibrating through the concrete and releases any air inside of the concrete.
Otherwise, the concrete encloses air inside of it. If there is a really cold winter, the concrete could break up, because the air gets pressed out of it due to the cold temperature.
I think this Video is just a PoC for us. So we can see how this house was build.
Thank you very much and keep up your good work!
Cheers from Germany!
27 days sir to be fully cured
Concrete technically never fully cures but normally 28 days is considered full strength.
Air is good, to a point. 6-8.5% engrained air is good for climates that get cold. Too little, it cracks due to freeze/thaw cycles. Too much air, its weak.
Everybody hates a smart ass, Im sure they know what they are doing
Its a ccp housing project.
These men are SKILLED. They put that thing up like all bosses. My home looks lovely, when can I move in for free 😀😘.
They never said how many workers. Especially on the last day
The construction crews did an awesome job 👍
I don't know what's more bizarre. The sound going from nothing, to Iron Maiden freestyle, to tranquility back to Iron Maiden or contractors that can get the job done in six days. It takes them normally six days to smoke a cigarette and ponder what's happening!! Lol
Only took 6 days because it's not a house, it's a shack.

Way to wet . That aggregates going to settle to the bottom when they poured it in there all the mortar will be at the top
@John Fischer well I don't know where your voice of experience is coming from been doing concrete for the last 25 years that slump was way too wet you could see it when they poured it in there that the aggregate immediately fell to the bottom it needed to be suspended in the mortar but to each their own

Although this is a well constructed building, there are few things I noticed that we do differently in Alaska. When we put in the water and sewer we add protection around the pipes. This is because we have to follow guidelines for earthquakes. When we do the walls, we install the conduit for the wiring.
very good ideas. why they did not do this i am also confused
Third world construction. Probably too notch for that part of the world. Compared to the cinder block method mostly seen.
To be fair, the general quality of construction in the USA is on a par with made in China stuff

The nostalgic vibes are immaculate atm !! Music is super sick my uncle used to play stuff like that on his guitar at my grandma's house as a kid
How many electronics tools are there In six days, I still can't imagine what a person is doing, appreciate the construction work you have done.
This is an idea for the company. Get with engineers and see if this would be feasible in dome style construction. For places like Oklahoma and areas of the tornado belt for least wind resistance. Could save lives and could be a major savings in insurance costs as well.
That's a good idea! And maybe in areas with a tropical climate?!
Seems like a better solution than, "they're wood so it's cheap to rebuild"
👍
Probably would not save the buyer much.
This is way more resistant than what we have in Oklahoma because it’s all concret when we have houses built with wood! Not even close! This is how houses should be especially in a tornado states!
All that in only six days. Pretty impressive!
Beautiful outcome from such labor intensive and backbreaking work.Those men are incredible.
I wonder what State this is?
Different states have different building codes. California is one of the strictest codes to build a home or add on. Because of earthquakes, fire's, floods and just about anything else you can think of but they have nice weather work all year around out side.

These guys can build an entire house in like 6 days but our DOT can't even fill a pot hole in 9 months. Heaven help us if the government ever takes over healthcare. Private sector is always motivated to get stuff done. This was a great video.
It may not be the biggest or most stylish of houses, but I'm impressed, 6 days to build it complete, wow. Plus its good for the eco system, low cost to run. They just never stated the price 😁
Thanks for the comment! A practical solution to the homeless problem. I was deployed to Bosnia and our housing was modular. Built similarly with shower and bathroom located outside. LOL Cold walk to the Latrines!!! Heating was provided by a HAC unit located at both ends of the room. Thinking outside the box. Add solar power and you're good!! We drank bottled water.😊😊😊😊

@@johnboddie6826 Mini split and solar ?
@@dodfallin It would be more efficient for the community to be off-grid to off-set the cost of utilities. I live in a modest apartment and usually pay $40-60 per month for electricity. Rent is reasonable which is more cost effective than homeless shelters. Most military posts use propane which would reduce installation of gas line and plumbing. Solar panels and a backup power cell would run about $1,500-3,000 for a small home like this. It would cost the tax payers much and maybe be offset by the person's social security or DPA benefits.

I have an idea, I am to old to start a new venture, but someone out there may want to pursue this idea. I would like to build aircrete logs. Based on the toys we all played with when we were kids, Lincoln logs. These could be pre-manufactured so really almost anyone could buy the logs and construct a building. There would need to be different lengths made say like 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 feet etc. There would need to be some that had special ends with channels for doors and windows. There could be some that are pre wired with wall outlet boxes and switches. Logs could be pre-colored or surfaced in some cases. A building could be constructed permanently by bonding the logs together, or could be temporary and disassembled and moved. I think this could be an amazing new business that could revolutionize small buildings. And it would allow for any person to DIY.
Good thinking, why not, it's an itch somebody should fill it, imagine rural out structures temporary structures for housing or whatever, build it as you want just like Lincoln Logs
I think you can improve the ground by laying up plastic , then , use the 1" ×20cm pvc pipe to secure underneath the Brc ,by lifting up and centralized tthe Brc , it will help to improve the strength of your concrete-floor .
Back in April 2021 , both my frens n me built a Single Bungalow house 50x32 , altogether 5 bedrooms , 1 Masteroom , 1 kitchen + Living-Room , 3 bathrooms and 1 utility Room.
We completed nearly 3 months ,job delayed by heavy rain nearly 2 weeks on and off. Only 3 of us worked together until completed . The whole neighbourhood was shocked ,the rest of other developers were shocked too because we were young and average sized person and only utilized 3 people while the rest uses 6-10 person . Yet we completed like 2-3months earlier than them lmaoo. All i can say it , do it right for the furst time and work as a Team !!!!😼😾😺😹😅🙃
You guys have to learn so much... from design to basic material installation. It doesn't matter what country this is from, some general and basic construction procedures are simply omitted.

Where is this? Good for them if this works, efficient and nice look. Does the special foam concrete mean they need zero insulation?. I'm in Canada and my concrete basement gets so cold and humid in winter, I can't even bear to think of my whole house being like that. Also, concrete tends to crack here, with the ground shifting from temperature variations. It's fun to see how different techniques work in different places. Good job!

Bruh, I thought from the thumbnail this was going to be a snap! 😂😂😂
If y’all can build this in 6 days you should be able to do a regular timber and drywall house over your lunch break.
Would steel frame be faster as well?
Lol right, I was thinking the same thing, I could've framed that with regular lumber faster
Probably this is the "Preferred" method of construction in this part of the world. Plus the sound deadening of this with the Airport right out the front door. My question is heating and air. Didn't see any provisions for that.
You should have tapped the little drop down arrow and read the description. It would help you understand that it wasn’t just about speed. The very small home (maybe 25 x 12) has benefits a wood stick house doesn’t. Besides being fireproof, and not needing extra insulation, it is likely very inexpensive per sq. ft.. Termites never a worry. Rodents not setting up homes in the walls and attic space and nibbling on the wiring. I assume what they built is not in an area where the temps vary much. No heating or cooling at all. White stuff they painted the roof with will reflect some heat. Put the lightest colored asphalt shingles I could find when I replaced a roof. Helped only a tiny bit in the low desert of SoCal. Until they came up with better insulation materials standard stick homes were about the same temps as the outside. I don’t know the R value of the foamcrete, but it is no worse than what you gloat about. “Timber and drywall”. Unless you are talking about logs.
The title of the video is the problem. And the lack of narrative about what the benefits of the material are. In the description they were comparing it to concrete blocks and use after floods.
Since you are in home construction I have a question. Why in blue blazes do you put toilets in, essentially, cubby holes?

You have given me some ideas thank you. Our building codes require the foundation for the wall has a minimum 6 inches ( which you could have framed on your perimeter when you poured ) to stop water and pests. I see you water proofed before your wall pour where they would sit. Each country is different.
Great to see all that concrete work from the comfort of my cozy bedroom and I don’t have to participate 😁I’m not sure they’re saving much time. A house that size could be stick framed in about the same time.
@@Newlife-ol6pk According to another post, wooden houses can last well over 100 years. In fact, we've all seen very old wooden houses.

@@edswope28 First house I ever lived in was a fr4ame house on the west side of Chicago it predates the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 and it's still standing . BTW it's a balloon frame not the platform frame used today .
Great idea but there's no way that was done in six days, not least because concrete, any type, needs to dry out completely before being tiled.
Good. Strong, simple, and fast. Would be better if the house was bigger.
Its a cool idea but that stuff surely gonna give off toxic fumes over time.
Don't forget toxic. Since it's a foam, I'm guessing that it is petroleum based. This is a very bad idea.
bigger builds require stronger materials, with so little of the space being concrete it has much less strength than if it were solid

Seriously like the current printed houses. Apparently they are so affordable that they aren't available to the public.

It was next to the airport so not the most desirable Leland, probably pretty cheap
Having the wiring inside the foam walls, and no provisions for heating and air has me confused. Different culture, probably top notch for that part of the world. Can't compare apple's to banana's!
@@bigjohnson7415 Literally in Serbia houses aren't at all made this way. They're made of brick, heating provisions are a must (cold winters). I thought foam houses would be a thing in hot parts of US, I have no idea what these guys were doing. In any case, basically the way a house is made depends on the climate. For instance, in the Netherlands houses are made of brick with no insulation, while in Serbia they're made of brick with insulation, cause of the extreme temperatures both in summers and winters.
x2 the playback and see a house built in 3 days
Love it and all. Just, even something that small would be a bit pricey. My 16x16 tiny house, pre-wiring and plumming, ran me a little over 1k to build. Granted, having that awesome of a sound barrier would be nice.
I would like to asked if you build your house?
That awesome of a sound barrier might (read, IS) nessacary where they built that house. I can see an airport in the background.
How would I contact them about one like your?
If you built a 16x16 for a thousand your a master in economics unless its 20 years old. It cost me 700 to build a 4x8 chicken coop with 6 ft walls metal roof. Just recently. Using the cheapest pressure treated lumber I could find.
Seems you didn't bargain hunt
Would have liked to see it furnished in the end stage. It looks like a very polished finish. How about a follow up from the residents experience of living in the home since a year has passed?
That man deserves a raise, he's doing it all. lol
Which makes you wonder if all of that was truly completed on just 6 days by a couple of guys...
It's a wonderful little house. I imagine the entire construction process would require a higher than usual quality control to avoid the "oops" factor.
Came here for the build process, stayed for the rockin’ soundtrack
Instead of foam cement, maybe use shredded up pieces of recycled styrofoam insulation and micro rebar mixed into cement. The shredded up styrofoam would provide some insulation while making the cement lighter. The micro rebar would add strength. Could experiment with shredded car tires mixed into cement. Many car tires have steel belts/strands in them, if adding shredded car tires to cement gave it some strength. It'd be a good way to recycle tires and keep them out of landfills.
If you watched they used fiberglass reinforcement. The micro steel pins need special equipment and MUST be stainless steel or will rust later. That is one of the biggest problems with rebar, it literally explodes concrete when it rusts. Here in FL we see this problem constantly with concrete.
R-6 per inch for aircrete .. that's higher than the R-4.2 per inch for EPS foam board ..
@@djea3589 Yeah, those little slivers added to cement are stainless to not rust. Shredded tires might work fine in some things but not others.
One of the problems with these buildings is that where they are most needed are usually the places not allowed to be built do to building codes.
Wow... Multi talented. That cabinet guy also was plumber and electrician.

@@stephenaltherr2217 watch the video it says
Did anyone notice how in six days trees with leaves turned into trees without them? 🤣
They didn't say that they were 6 consecutive days.
Between FI day 3 and 4 there would be at least 4 days concrete cure.
Did anyone notice how there wasn't a slab but 10 small slabs separated by 2x4s 😂😂😂 that's not a slab.
wow what is thww difference in price range of this house and our traditional use of building materials here in South AFRICA. The structure really seems tight.
It’s hard to take them serious when they’re not wearing open toe sandals and have more tools than a hammer and a torch ,, but I’ll stick around and see how this goes 🤔
Hard hats and vests too

Very efficient for heating and cooling, like living in a thermos-bottle.
Give those men a raise-- they worked hard for their pay!
how much does it cost compared to conventional building work for the same space
Depends, are you against slave labor?
@@davespark10 yes I am. But I am asking from an economic perspective
Didn’t see any “foam cement” used in this construction.
I saw a concrete silt or slurry used but no foam at all.

Lol, They're using "Hot Head Bop" from Donkey Kong Country 2 for the first song.
I thought my house was poorly constructed until I watched this video.... wow!
I love you so MUCH! 💓
Is there heat and air conditioning?
Interesting to read all the naysayers. I viewed this as a material demo video not as a permanent residential structure that someone is moving into. What better place to demo a new construction material than by a noisy flight line vs next door to a residential area, duh? Someone mentioned mold due to no vapor barrier being installed, someone criticized rebar and the list goes on. I've been around the world, there are millions of man-made structures that do not adhere to OSHA or other current industrial standards that continue to function, stand and be useful for 1000s of years. While plenty of buildings that meet said standards are blown away, full of mold, burn down and wash away in the blink of an eye. So much for standards... The longer I'm on this planet the more I realize how SOME people choose prescriptions of ignorance and close-mindedness for their glasses and contacts. Sheesh, let these folks test their material and lets see where it goes from here, if you don't like it don't use it.
Ok.
Why not test it in American where people or living underneath bridge and roadside...as bad as things are in a third world country most people have a tree where they can rest their head....it not everything you see on television believe. ..it is so good why not test it here first.....stop letting these people use your people for guinea pig....your lack of knowledge and common sense blind you.
I would like to build a hemp house. There was a bridge built about 5000 yrs ago and part of it is still standing.
You also made a good point about the naysayers, stop it and open up to possibilities for crying out loud!
People have to appreciate that construction requirement vary a lot depending on the conditions the building will face. Moisture management it important in the northern USA, or the UK, but it may barely matter in the desert. Fire resistance it not a huge priority in cold, wet places, but it's critical in Australia or the south west USA. So yes, some of the criticisms may not apply to the place where this house it going up.
Great comment shayes323. Darn i'll be the guinea pig. I'm currently homeless and would love it if someone built me one of these.
I would have painted the walls first and then put the tiles down, not the other way around 😄
The soundtrack for this was really emotive, it elevated this video into a Top Gun type of experience. This is a house fit for Maverick himself.

Beautiful home in a country setting, newer amenities. Close to the airport, bring the family stay for a month $750.00 per night.

Foam cement houses are da bomb.
Memo to all UA-camrs - NEVER play constant electric guitar background "music" - totally annoying
Suze I completely agree!!!
you don't have volume control?

The compressive strength of foam concrete would have to be much less than regular concrete. A two story home would need structural elements other than the foam concrete to support the second floor.

Esse projeto é espetacular. Aqui no Brasil infelizmente não existe nenhuma empresa que execute construções assim.
sabe pq? o custo disso feito so com argamassa... 35 pila o saco do cimento, 140 pila o m³ de areia... da pra fazer 3 casas com 1 dessa
I would put a steel security screen door on the front, so I could leave the wooden doors open and have a view from sitting on the toilet
zbudda 😂🤣😂😆🤣👍🏻
watching the planes going by, on the runway you can see and hear.
Great show, except I guaranty that the paint is going to peel. You can not paint until the moisture has been evaporated from the concrete or it will peel. This takes at least a week, but usually three to four weeks. In the USA foundations are poured and can not be built upon until the concrete reaches over 90% strength, usually 28 days. Great job but does for show.
I LOVE IT !! Much better than crap American construction...
Not using Teflon tape on those water fittings is a recipe for leaking.
Same guy doing the plumbing joiner and electrical work.wow 15 years at trade school for three separate trades!
What do you do when you need to repair your electrical or Plumbing from age. Perhaps you repairing something in your plumbing and your piping off at the stub of concrete. Same with your wiring. Your wiring could be spared by running it through pipes or conduit perhaps. However, you need to come up with something better for the plumbing maybe pipe within pipe I don't know. Yes it does have some serious design flaws. What do you expect from college-educated engineers and never worked a day in the field.
Although the bulk of the hydration process takes place in the hours and days immediately after the pour, concrete needs 28 days to fully dry. While the slab will harden and lighten in color before 28 days, don’t be fooled into thinking it’s done hydrating. If you plan to stain or paint the concrete, doing so before the process is complete can result in changes in the stain color or the paint peeling off.
The bathroom is very small, it could have been big, where the washing machine and the dryer were included, I liked it, there was the option of doing a second floor.
Hello Bernardo ......
how about less music and more explanation of the process I'm more interested in more information
indeed it's too loud
You will get what they give you! And you will like it!
That's because if they gave an explanation they would have to admit that it took waaaaaay more than 6 days to do that labor.
so am i, to be perfectly honest.
@@anthonylutz118 From the video I would have to insist the whole process only took 18 minutes!
Hope nobody needs any piping fixed seeing how its all encased within concrete.
I was thinking the same thing 🤔
In Canada at least, Supply lines and drain pipes in poured floors are pressure tested before and after pouring concrete. It’s a lot easier to break up concrete and replace it than to cut & replace framing, insulation, vapour barrier, rain screen and perhaps exterior sheathings, and/or drywall and then painting and maybe trim too. It’s all too easy to be allowed. This kind of technology would change a great many lives for better.
😒 plenty of people encase their plumbing in the foundation. You break the concrete if there was a leak at the location of the pipe that’s leaking.
@@alanaweaver8942 do you build houses? Because it's not really the plumbing going through the floors. Those pipes are for temperature control in the flooring. Not for the house plumbing.
I think there is sheetrock involved. They just not showing it . I hope.
I'd add a support beam in the center for sure... also that bathroom should be a few feet bigger. Wirewhile doing the framework. Definitely needs insulation on those pipes. When finished I'd also add another roof on top suspended by independent supports
