Dumping tires and other waste into concrete bedrocks might be a good idea by itself. But what happens after 20 years, when the building is already worn and has to be pulled down?
1:38 "When concrete dries" ????? Concrete does not dry. The water combines with cement in an exothermic reaction. The final strength of the concrete is determined by the water cement ratio. That's the amount of water used in the mix. FUN FACT : The Hoover Dam, built in the 1930s, is still being cooled to take away the heat generated by the continuing reaction of the concrete hardening.
Your "Fun fact" isn't accurate. _"The Hoover Dam concrete _*_would cure in 125 years by conventional or natural methods._*_ Crews, however, used some innovative engineering methods to hasten the process._ _Nearly 600 miles of steel pipes woven through the concrete blocks significantly reduced the chemical heat from the setting for the concrete. Crews relied on 1,000-pound blocks of ice produced daily at the site’s ammonia-refrigeration plant._ _The pipes that were used to cool the large blocks were later filled with concrete for additional strength"_
Well, as long as the reinforcement rebars are not pre-tensioned, you're kinda good. It's not gonna blow up like tensioned rebars. Yes, you'll lose on structural strength, but so does any other material you cut a window in.
In The Netherlands most houses are rowhouses. They are typically constructed with reinforced concrete, but only for the side walls and floors. The front, back and internal walls are mostly from aerated concrete (which is very light weight) or even just wood.

Concrete Doesn't Dry It Sets, Hard Enough To Walk On Within 24 To 48 Hours Depending On Location. It Will Fully Set In About A Month However, It Can Cure For Years. Thank You.
The Roman's had concrete forms , and concrete that would set under water. Tyres and straw bales with concrete poured over has been used since at least the 1970's. The Victorian farmer would use old bottles under floors to create insulation.
At 3.01 mins, this flooring is and looks a fantastic idea to keep homes warm underfoot, I wonder if you can use it for interior walls after brick work completed?
After all, if “construction workers can’t believe these techniques work” a bit of measurable and confirmed data would help us laypeople. For example: How “long lasting” and how resilient? What’s the reasonable cost for materials and labor? What are the pros and cons? Thanks . . . very interesting!
Depends what though? Definitely nothing massive like a city building complex. I this stuff might be okay for small home shelters or lighter applications.
In a small town south of Pittsburgh called donora there is what is called the concrete city houses built of solid concrete 1 ft thick walls, poured! From what I recall these were built in the twenties or thirty's! 1 ft thick walls of concrete I believe does not need any insulation, just my guess.
I was made to understand that a rubberized tire will not stay buried no matter what. They will work their way to the surface over and over, the rubber will always be gassing out until it crumbles to a dust after decades. The road made of tires is a joke!
A tire? Possibly. But these are essentially the tread rings -- no sidewall. So I'm not so sure the mechanical stresses will cause the same "springing" effect that a tire would be subjected to that would cause it to rise.
They continually resurface, and the rubber within them keeps emitting gases until it eventually crumbles into dust after decades. Roads made from tires seem almost like a joke, don't they? What are your thoughts on replacing tires with other materials to mitigate this issue?
For decades i am watching these amazing new building techniques but I have never seen them to be used in building a run of the mill house. Even if you could build it you will not find department of building and safety which will approve and insurance company which will insure it. It is just an other wet dream.
I absolutely love watching these kinds of videos but let's be honest in 50 to 100 years because of what the materials are made of most of these buildings won't be standing what I find amazing are those who engineered buildings monuments whatever you want to call them but it stood for thousands of years for hundreds of years and unfortunately we just have not created anything like that in a very long time
Funny, in Germany houses have been built with insulation panels for decades and here it is sold as "new technology for energy reduction and heat storage"
0:55 Reinforced concrete walls are absolute no go for building a house, we know it since the 1960´s & 1970´s after using prefabs to build huge housing complexes 🤦♂
Beton und Kunststoffe mischen ist nur noch Sondermüll, fast unmöglich dies zu recyeln. Alles wird irgendwann mal abgerissen und wenn es über 100 Jahre dauert.
concrete has a average R-value of .08/inch, brick .2/inch, fiberglass insulation 3.7/inch say you needed a R-20 value for a wall you would just divide the total number 20 by the r-value/inch of material to see how many inches you would need to meet the requirements 20/3.7 (fiberglass)= 5.4 inches of material, but i'd just go 6 inches for added protection of 22.2
When i think of American builders, i always think about the story of the three pigs; one builds his house out of straw, one out of wood and one out of bricks. Seeing this makes me realise that just now Americans think about making houses of concrete. I always laugh so hard when i hear on the news that a city is destroyed by a hurricane. People in Hurricane alley still build their house with straw
Brick is more expensive and way more labor intensive than wood in the US (unlike many countries, the US and Canada have not depleted their forests). It's a lot cheaper to build wooden houses and rebuild every 100 to 150 years than build brick houses and rebuild every 200 to 300 years. Plus, wooden houses are easily modified and upgraded as technology changes while brick houses aren't.
@@eliwhite5548 In fact America has more forested land than a hundred years ago. (Of course most old growth trees are gone) We have so many tree farms that we more than meet all of the building needs in the US.
@@eliwhite5548 I was more talking about pouring concrete, instead of using bricks. And I was only half joking. People do things differently, to get the same result. If you look at some of the medium sized buildings in London (still multi-stories high) we still use bricks, where in America they seem to use steal rods and poured concrete. Neither I guess has a better result than the other. It was just an observation. In the UK, we very rarely pour concrete for the outer walls of a building.
Snappy music and quick-cut vids are not particularly informative. As a former concrete lab technician And construction inspector and degreed chemist, I would have appreciated a more detailed explanation of what was shown.
I designed and non mortar flexible concrete panels better than that initial scene. Flexacrete. 15 years ago. You can service( remove/ replace as needed and no metal reinforcement react) because erosion is a life problem and will always need servicing. The poly filled cement in the video design will be cost prohibitive as it it permanent in place. ( Louisiana hurricane levee protection)
Not that anyone would read that or this but I'm not trying to insult or anything I am not inclined nor intelligent enough to be able to build something I just see the direct disconnect of the beauty that we used to build and what we've got now and you just don't get to see that beauty anymore look at the cars I mean yeah they look cool but there's just something off about the art of our day and age
The carbon footprint of cast-in-place concrete most likely doesn't add up. I don't care so much for 3D printing for the same reason, but at least you can use less material and rebar if you're creative with the design.
Half this stuff will only be used in places like China, because they won't let you use such ridiculously flammable material for insulation in the West.
I'll tell you who else can't believe it: licensed civil engineers responsible for designing infrastructure.
I grew up in a 1950's cinder block construction home. You don't have to worry as much about heating/cooling costs.
Dumping tires and other waste into concrete bedrocks might be a good idea by itself. But what happens after 20 years, when the building is already worn and has to be pulled down?
I guess plumbing in these new wall forms is out of the question
Was wondering that same thing myself....WHERE are water and drain lines going to be run up to any second-floor bathroom ?!?!
You can, but pre-pluming only
Not really, you can put thepipes for wires and water into the concrete in advance, just like other methods where you use wood for creating the walls
@@JimmyTheGreek2000 ?
frame the interior of the concrete and do your plumbing that way. You'd obviously need holes in the floor for your plumbing.

So what are you saying 👍
#1 In my book, the rest of this mess is nonsense.
There's bridges crumbling all over the country built of rusty steel reinforced concrete.
So basically your saying there’s no bar like US. Rebar
As long as you getting people to build the same stuff the same way you going to get the same results this is how it should be done❤❤❤
Fantastically said.
Concrete house needs to be insulated well. Really cold in the winter and unbearably hot and muggy at night in the summer.
Perhaps a hemp slurry stucco type finish... But things are definitely zeroing in on an excellent structure for hurricane alleys...
Still better than toothpicks.
@@Plutogalaxy Not what I was saying. Did I say a concrete house can change the climate? No.
Yes, so why not use ICF and leave an insulating form behind?
😂 Really?

Reinforced concrete homes is a great idea, until one day when you want to want to change window sizes and positions...

@@arthurtomczak8474 Not all types of concrete though 😉
In New Orleans, they made a concrete that they added air to so water flows through it was pretty cool to watch. I'm not sure if it went anywhere.

So what happens in a couple years when the tires have broken down?
Regular concrete roads buckle in heat, pot holes form and breakdown as well.
Thats great, put more plastic in the environment!
Just because you can make something cheap and quick doesn't mean you should

Nothing today has anything to do with better or stronger, only cheaper. Cheaper usually ends up costing you down the road.
