DIY Aircrete Mixer and Pump System Explained
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- In this video, Bruce gives us a complete walkthrough of his homemade aircrete mixing system that also pumps the aircrete into slip forms. This system only requires two people to operate, and they can quickly produce 15+ batches of aircrete daily. If you want to do a large Aircrete build, this is a must-see video.

Domegaia, please produce a system like this (for sale!). I am 72 years old and I cannot manage lifting the heavy stuff anymore. I understand the reason for the original lowest cost equipment+method, but some of us need something like this. Thanks.
And/or plans for setup!
Agreed?!
This is a great system. I am building a semi automated aircrete machine based on a stucco mixer and a 2" diaphragm pump. My hope is to have even less steps with transferring to a pressure drum etc. I think i should just be able to make the slurry, add foam, mix and pump. Got the Dragon XL as the generator that I intend to add onto the machine. Ideally everything will be trailer mounted eventually to make it super versatile.
Can you make the plans, pictures and parts list along with the directions to building Bruces system? I have watched the video multiple times and still can't grasp how to make this system, all the help possible that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. My wife and I want to do a similar build when we get our property in Arizona and Bruces system would make it so much easier. Thank you.
What type and size valve are you using between the mixing drum and the pump drum? How many batches of the slurry are you putting in the top 55 gal. drum to mix and how much foam are you using to mix it? What diameter pool hose are you using, how long is it?
I would look Bruce up and go visit him... this video will never be enough.
Thanks for sharing the info you have a nice setup! I'm looking at doing the thing for my build. On the air pressure, if you regulate the air pressure in your metal barrel to 20 psi, the max psi in your metal tank is 20 per square inch no matter the size of container. Hopefully you are using an air regulator to your caged barrel vs a control valve, air regulators controls the psi,..control valve controls air flow and not psi. Hopefully you have a safety relief valve (they come in different psi and are preset) your air pressure tank and your aircrete pressure container, in case the regulator fails to limit the psi. Adding the cage around your tank is nice to have as well in case the regulator and safety relief valves both fail.
It doesn't have a safety relief valve, but that's a really good idea.
Thank you soo much
Pumicecrete is by far the best building material on the planet Pumicecrete is a mixture of pumice cement and water mixed and poured into a set of reusable forms walls are poured from 12"to 24" thick pumicecrete is fireproof termite proof rust rot and mold proof and has a high R value and good sound attenuation solid poured walls means no critters can live in your walls Pumicecrete can be built for a fraction of the cost and time and pumice is one of the few building materials that can go directly from the mine to the job site ready to use without any additional possessing and zero waste
Take care Ray
Where did you get your pumice and what is their largest bag? I have found it in lumber stores small bags are expensive. The lowest price light weight rock I have found is Haydite bulk is 40 dollars a ton an hour away.
@@duanethieme4186 I order pumice by the truck load there are 3 mines that I have used Cr minerals In Espanola NM
Hess pumice Malad city Idaho and Global pumice in Olancha CA
All 3 are around $ 40 per yard plus shipping
Take care Ray
I don't make blocks it is poured in place and sister uses 3 gallon bucket so it's lighter
@@raymondpeters9186 Sounds great!
My experience with pumicecrete was that they are heavy... a small size sure but the ones we dealt with came in larger sizes and it would be hard for one person. Im in the quest to find a way so that one or two ppl can build these alternative structures.
@@getlostinit3D the pumicecrete walls are poured in place the pumice I order is 3/8 in size it is light
The mix is 10 5 gallon bucket of pumice to 1 5 gallon bucket of cement and 8 gallons of water mixed in a 12 cu ft concrete mixer poured into a wheelbarrow and is poured into the forms with a 5 gallon bucket
I have built 5 homes 3 additions and 4 walls I never had more than 3 people on the job including me and my first house was poured by me and my 68 year old mother
Pumicecrete is the easiest way to build
Google all the walls of my house are made of pumicecrete
Take care Ray
I don't build blocks it's poured in place and can be built by 2 people
Domegaia: a system like this would be a big movement toward getting building permits. The Hawaii county office said the homemade aircrete was a big problem due to the differing consistency, human variability. You have to use building materials that meet and are tested for certain specs preferably from a factory that tests everything. I am wondering if even setting up a DIY testing process that could be documented would work to satisfy the permitting agencies?
I’m in Panama. Did hit right the “wall” in the municipal engineers office, responsible for building permits. “Aircrete? Certificates? No? Sorry. No permits!” Local availability in building materials are the key if you like to get electricity. Fire department signatures. All is only given if you use local products. So I am using concrete blocks like the original Steven Dome house. Hebel or Ytong products aren’t sold here. There are still roadblocks if you mention “self made aircrete”!
They need to manufacture this design. I’m pretty sure they can find a Chinese developer. Also they can make block molds and sell them by the pallet since they can make so much at a time.
awesome
Question, does the vibration motor added explode the bubbles of air Crete? If yes, then is not such a good idea to implement this vibrator because it looses the r value ?
No, the foam is very robust when made correctly
Hey Joel it's Lorenzo let's chat about some potential new workshop(s)
What did you use for your paddles, wood 2x4 and plywood?
I seen an earlier video showing a closer view of the paddles!
@@duanethieme4186 they're made out of composite decking.
@@brucecoutant4874 Great idea!
i just want to buy a pump for pouring aircrete into walls. Where can I buy one?
30,000 pounds hogwash. What is 20 psi? 20 pounds per square inch ring a bell?
