    I like the idea of the lock and block system in a way to use up plastic waste. As long as the outside and inside could be covered over by a nonflammable and traditional covering. In other words be able to glue or screw to it or concrete up against it for durability and fire resistance. I myself live in Tornado Alley and that is an entirely different issue with most building methods. We get all four seasons and add very strong weather conditions and hail and tornados.

    Interesting. I have never hear of a wood brick system like that. Living in Canada I would want to see a wider wall for more insulation but yeah it could work here. Well I guess log buildings are the same idea and those are everywhere here. They also make logs that are milled to interlock like that, with grooves on top and bottom that fit together. They make a really tight house for a log house. It uses more logs though. I still like the full scribed log home, they are so damn beautiful!

    I visited a property outside of Green Bay, WI in the late 1980s that was listed for sale. The seller had built a cord wood home and garage. It was exactly the same method you featured in this video. We passed the attractive garage on our way to the house which was set farther back in a wooded part of the lot. We were discussing the novelty of the building method when we turned a corner and the house came into view.
    Or shall we say, "what was left of the house." It had been nearly completely destroyed by a fast burning fire that destroyed 95% of the structure and all of the contents. My brother in law was a fire fighter. We were shocked by the utter destruction of the home and sat silent as he turned the car around and abruptly left.
    In Wisconsin we heat our homes during the winter and have a heightened respect for fire. I would never, ever live in the wood brick house either. Wood dries out quickly. It also splits and rots. I sincerely hope that some inexperienced person does not take your advice and move their family into one of those death traps.

  • @TonyWadkins
    @TonyWadkins 4 роки тому +3

    Brikawood may be fine for a mild dry climate but not enough insulation value for most of the world. The inner and outer layer (3" together) should be R value of 1.5 per inch of wood for an R value of 4.5 plus whatever you use for cavity insulation(don't use shavings). The thermal bridging for the interior dovetail studs cuts down the overall assembled R-value by 20 to 30%.

    While I'm sure all of these methods and materials have their advantages and disadvantages, the Brikawood one worries me the most. Exterior and interior walls made of wood, with filling/insulation of wood shavings or puffed wool, make me think it would all burn way too easily.

      @@tylerferrell2959 is correct, you would have to add an accelerant, or oxygen (is that technically an accelerant?) To induce any more heat or quicker burning. The only real risk is that there is no separation to cut the line of fire, like an aluminum strip between 2 boards to prevent the flame from jumping quickly, to slow the spread.

A passive house design is based on the principles of creating a house with minimal air-changes. I cannot see how a timber wall insulated with saw dust creates a wall that is resistant to moisture/vapour and further mould issues.
    If someone can explain how this wall tackles moisture and mould issues please let me know.
    Also, please let me know what is meant by 'Passive Construction' in the context of this video if possible.

    I see no electric or plumbing how about heating and cooling . All of this needs to be integrated into those new building ideas !

      That's something you have to do as you build up
      Of course you could use conduit attached to interior wall
      No matter what you do, you just have to have the plan before you start....... there's plumbing too

    I am not a fan of over logging but much of logging is done by tree farming many lumber producers grow their own trees and replant the trees they have been doing for decades

    Isn't wood a good source of 🔥??

      Yes, wood is almost always a fire hazard, unless it's soaked up something to make it non-flammable.
      Cement has become very popular for this purpose. Eco-alternatives use clay mixed with other fibrous material, such as hay, or hemp fibres.
