I. Was a carpenter for forty years . Many different methods I wish I could have used or used some of them . Thanks for video.
Which is better ?
Wood brick or Plastic Brick ????
@@myaim9874 fire-charged clay brick.
Keep this type videos coming. Thanks
Thanks for sharing. Nice methods.
A good use for all the plastic we already have, building blocks.
Wood brick puzzle building. I love it.
Excelente vídeo, saludos desde Colombia en el sur de América.
Thank you for this useful information
I think that all of the above are really cool.
Étonnant et intéressant , merci.
Love these products
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.
I like the first idea
And looks good
Awesome and very informative video!
GENIUS👑👏👏👏
Hell, Lego needs to step it up ,they could be the next big thing in home construction
Gablok.
Make the blocks out of recycled plastic trash.
This is really cool! Thank you for sharing
Brick-a-wood: We da best!
Termites and carpenter ants: Let me count the ways
Mice: hold my tiny beer
@@frosty172 spit take on that one.
That's another reason why I think plastic and metal are the better material option
@@emilyrose9854
They all have their pros and cons. Only time will tell which is the best. Our "disposable" minded cultures, short term memories and social preferences do however, play a role in our choices.
Rock would appear to outlast them all. Mayans, Incas, Egyptians and the Flintstones would agree. 😆
@@emilyrose9854 I was thinking some kind of ceramics or concrete block.
Cool!
Wow that's so cool.
After a tornado, you just pick up the pieces of that wood block built house and put it back together😀
Or earth quake, or hurricane, or strong snow storm, or...never mind, but it's french so...i dont know, they're not exactly know for their quality of work.
That’s exactly what I was thinking! Also, aren’t we asking for a heck of a lot of carpenter ants, wood boring insects and termites? Seems excessive on the use of wood. Also, how much can you do and how elaborate and versatile in look can you get with the interlocking system?
Just like a lots of lego
Lock and block seems like the way to go to me
Brikawood seems like a great idea. It could be manufactured from off-cuts and are easy to build.
Why isn't it popular?
Lock and blok is interesting 👍
PH1M0 👍
Peace… Shalom… Salam... Namaste and Thank You for All that you are doing to Heal our Mother Earth 🙏🏻 😊 🌈 ✌ 🌷 ☮️❤️
Blocks are THE BEST, no matter if they are plastic, wood or hybrid materials! At least for houses... I suppose for building with many floors, the traditional construction might be the best yet
very very interested I rilly like it
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!
Sir please watch lockable bricks concept no need to be cemented easy removable reusable I have seen in somewhere in Africa inner areas
Beautiful but expensive 💲💲 I was wondering if the plastic Lego house would be warm enough for our Canadian winters. With building codes becoming more stricter in Canada all the time , I think half of these methods would not pass codes for the fire ratings or snow loads , (or the big bad wolf, huffing and puffing ) how would insurance companies insure a home like these?????? 👍 👍 🇨🇦
Прикольно первый дом сделан. В Египете так строили. Только из камня.
I kinda feel like I could juggernaut right through that first structure.
the best person minds
There is also a method of using mycelium to create blocks. Which can be used in construction.
Vary cool I like it 😍
Should be mate made of a sustainable , green material like hemp or bamboo
Those methods were talked about in part one
Brickawood - alternatively build it with half the wood in half the time - it’s called a Shed
The point is that it can be reused, which makes a structure way sustainable
The future has to be block systems if we want robots to build for us, would be nice to go into a designated 3d program and have a building built shortly after. Buildings would be a little pixelated if you can call it that but curved surfaces can be made smother in the final finish by hand.
Termites luv's them sum brick-O-wood. Mmmmm good.
There's probably some oil you can soak the wood with, that termites can't stand. A quick search says citrus oils, eucalyptus oil, cedar oil.
Awesome
I would prefer fire-hardened clay brick with metal splines. Using Roxsul type insulation. If you want to use wood for accents, one could use a variety of super hard woods like “ipe”.
They get wood nearby:
Me: Well looks like i’m out of luck!
What about something for shore line protection systems? Any recommendations?
Lock n block sounds nice but i wonder if it fails under high heat loads. Warping and sagging and such.
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.
Laurel Shelhamer Yet the vast majority of US homes are wood framed, with OSB, chipboard and plywood cladding, flooring and roofing. Then pumped full of paper or toxic foam insulation. All of which burn far more readily and violently than a solid log.
I'd be cool if these were actually available in the US
Lok N Blok structures could be built at incredible speeds with hive robotics and AI.
Brickawood is a great concept as long as it is treated with borate prevent termites/carpenter ants. Also true for the wood shavings used in cavities. Not hard but critical; if not done this place will be feast anywhere these voracious creatures live (almost everywhere).
I think hybrid materials to create durable blocks will become the norm and the future
I thought the same thing. Wood beetles destroyed a floor support in my raised foundation home. I can imagine the wood eating bugs rubbing their legs in glee, awaiting the feast.
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%.
What would you suggest for very cold climates, like -20c?
Лучший домик для мышей
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.
Wood burns at a consistent rate so making thicker for insulation also increases the time takes to burn unless you decide to add an accelerant
Main toc, I agree, fire risk and with all pieces integrated and locked together , would be difficult to repair rot or damage
Char the wood like the Japanese do.
@@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.
@Barry Foster me 2, concrete is eco friendly as well, and build thermal mass which is also effective for maintaining temperature.
Glavlok is another new system that could be included here. Made in Cork.. but not of Cork ;-)
lok andblock the best
I hope this becomes more popular and actually puts the logging industry out of business
I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok. I sleep all night and I work all day.
How about eco concrete and stone??
Is the cost very big for eco-friendly building materials?
The lol book demo was misleading. The chippies had to cut and measure the pieces. If it had all pre done like the lokblok the chippies would have won by a mile. But still, interesting concept. Wonder how that system would work with Hebel
PAULOWNIA WOOD, IS VERY GOOD SOLUTION, FOR CONSTRUCTION😀
🙌👏🙌👏😀
When this type of construction will come to India.
are there any cons of why their not used for taller buildings
Did you already show some of the different clay- and strawconstructions in an earlier video or are you perhaps going to?
Yeah Part 1 features EcoCocoon - a straw and clay building innovation.
Price of the wood brick ??
The 1st or last lock n block are intriguing. I didn't catch it, is any of this in the US ?
Hi, Lok n blok is from US but not sure about their status or if they're still working on it. The first one Brikawood is from France. There is a similar product in the US called Lincoln Block which I will cover in one of my upcoming videos.
CAN they be used to build skyscrapers
How do I fireproof the wooden blocks? 😢
Хороший сараюшка по цене мерседеса!!! Ребята, приезжайте в Россию, стройте свои дома и живите в них как сможете!!!
If lock and block is not on the market what was the point of including It?
Lockblok need more Information
0:22 - Brikawood - It talks about passive construction, possibly referring to Passive House design, but I do not understand how this would avoid issues with condensation or create an air-tight barrier. 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.
Using whole planks and screws would be much faster that the first method. I don't see the benefit unless you don't own a screwdriver.
@1:43 he leans against a brick and the whole center wall moves slightly. Looks like no displaying fancy plates on a shelf on the wall.
Арболитовая несъемная опалубка зачетная!!!!
Sorry, clicked away at 4 mins after seeing many lovely creative things that a very very few alternative people might like but will never catch on in the major building markets for reasons such as: high cost of manufacture to process such things ready for use, flamability, termites, cracking and shrinking of different materials, maintenance labour and costs, ...... All just pipe dreams outside of the hippie realms.
Why can't they use Bamboo? and or Hemp?
Doesnt grow in Europe
Wood bricks. Perfect meal for carpenter bees, ants, woodpeckers, termites, etc. ... what person came up with this idea?
Cord wood is a bad idea. Wood shrinks ando expands. There will be air and water infiltration.
Any one that I have seen leaked air
That's why you let it dry for a season.. you want wood at 15 pct or less moisture..or use cedar
I will like to work with the clock and block company… I have a background in Building Technology and Environmental science although I am just about to get another masters in Civil Engineering, I hope to make career out of sustainable building Engineering
How can we use so much wood for construction.? So many trees must have cut for this use. Isn't it a waste and how it can be eco friendly.
avinash wood is grown to provide building materials on huge plantations. It's not just cut down from anywhere!
What of termites infestations?
Hope Atsevgo Moses we don't have termites in Europe
Lock-n-block seems only rentable if it uses recyclen Plastic/ plastic waste
If I'm a termite, the walls are like eating a steak and the wood shavings in the middle are like having a whipped cream dessert!
ECO BUILDING Y DE CUANTOS ARBOLES SACARON LA MADERA NADA Q VER X FAVOR
Wood shavings, sure, but you can also insulate ecologically-friendly with newspaper shreddings, dried leaves, grass clippings, pine needles, dryer lint, and a few buckets of petroleum jelly. 👍
Eco means cutting trees that's friendly.
Mhikee Encina they are from managed plantations, grown especially to provide building materials. As they cut one area they replant it. It's a farmed product, just like anything we eat. Only third world countries actually clear virgin forests!
the wood bricks are cool and all but not sure the wood brick are "eco frindly" do you realize the amount of cuts and shaping there was to make all those pieces, i would say "10 times if not more" the amount of energy was used than a regular house the same size would take.
I know more about diy from Avasva handbooks!
You need to talk about building better, I build garages and sheds with a difference and spent 10 years working in Germany to learn my trade, just about to retire but I have passed on my knowledge to the team and next generation
I'd love to learn
I'm interested. Can you give me an idea of what you mean by learning "about building better". You've definitely got my attention.
But for the wooden bricks, it's much easier and cheaper to just build it with wooden panels not those wooden bricks.
Конструктор для игр!
Tem como trazer esse tipo de construção aqui pro Pará Brasil?
I love use Avasva Solutions for that issue.
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.
brickwood c,est cher et pas adapter au climat de montagne
Wouldnt want a cordwood house
Lok n block = Giant Lego's
I see no electric or plumbing how about heating and cooling . All of this needs to be integrated into those new building ideas !
so you drill a hole ok then you put a wire though that provides electricity then you have home electricity
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
The first house would make a nice bonfire.
HempCrete should be in here...
It's in the first video. This video is part 2.
@@cgstech5657 ok my bad thanks!
depending where you live the mold issues would be something to think about
Wellcome to the termite gang dan say halleluja
''brikawood has no thermalbridges'' oh come on the whole thing is a thermalbridge with those connectors in the middle.
WOOD BURNS IN A FIRE! You can keep it.
