    Every time I watch this build, I am in AWE at ALL of the phenomenal work done at every stage of the build. The whole complex or building is a work of art, and then the items that would typically be considered art is just off the charts great!!!

      It would be indeed! And we are working hard to make it happen. In fact, back in 2013, our construction foreman, Romeo, became the first person in the LWH team to do so, followed by our Construction Manager, Roberto, in 2018. Hugo, green-building foreman has also implemented some of these techniques in his own house. We hope it soon becomes a trend in Comalapa 😊. Thank you for watching our videos!

    Dear commenters, Thank you for the feedback. Prior to building this structure we built with tires and bamboo. We also built this structure. ua-cam.com/video/EtK2V3lMiu0/v-deo.html as a trial run. What we discovered during the construction of this building was that earthbag buildings such as this, although strong, are not as easily replicable as tire buildings, in earthquake and hurricane prone Guatemala. I agree with one of the comments about not receiving enough square footage for all of the work necessary which is one of the reasons we dont do this more often. However, because we are building a school, what we lost in sq feet we gained in the structural integrity of a round (is sound) building. The reason we have added so much art, is b/c the rooms are filled with students and teachers, the campus with families, community members, and visitors.

    • @LongWayHomeOrg
      @LongWayHomeOrg  4 роки тому +5

      Hi there, Merlin! The answer is yes, eventually they will break down. However, our research shows that in the 5 years we have had shingles up in that building, none have broken down yet. If anything, once they start deteriorating, the idea is to replace them with new ones and stuff the old ones in tires. For your second question: the first floor of that building is actually comprised of 3 classroom and 1 bathroom, and on the second floor there is an office and two guest rooms that are currently being used by our Executive Director and our Green Building Academy instructor.

      @LongWayHomeOrg  4 роки тому +2

      Hey Audrey! You are absolutely right in that it is easier to use adobe blocks, which is what we've used in pretty much all of our buildings. With this building in particular though, we wanted to try something different (that's part of the beauty of green building, you can have a lot of fun in trying out various construction methods, materials and techniques!) It was indeed a lot of work but the result is magnificent, at least in our eyes, and this building ended up becoming the focal point of our campus -it's the first thing everyone wants to see when they come to visit us in Comalapa. You know what they say, hard work pays off! Thanks for watching our videos. You can learn more about our work and mission by visiting our website www.lwhome.org. Take care 😊
