  I don't know of anyone but I think it would be worth trying. Aircrete doesn't have the thermal mass but it is an insulator and would be so much easer than pounding dirt. I would stack the tires, stretch wrap them to seal, then pour the aircrete in.

  Has anybody tried this yet? To have an Earth Ship without the hassle of pounding the tyres would be great. As @anthonydjones suggests, there may be a requirement for either pouring the aircrete into ready stacked tyres and/or adding some form of reinforcement to hold the tyre wall in place.

  I think you will have some water accumulation at the bottom. Foam floats and water sinks to the bottom while drying.

  Hello: I have been using this method for a while now and I love the results. I'm wondering if anybody out there is making their own concentrated soap? Now a days I'm mixing 1 teaspoon of SLS with 2 cups of seventh generation soap. I heat the soap in medium heat for a couple of minutes then I add the powder SLS and mix it well. Let it cool and boom you got super concentrated soap.

  @Jim-Daubert hi! it might not be relevant any more (old question), however others might find it relevant. In Sweden (Europe) there is a company that sells proffesional equipment and non toxic foaming agent called Aercell A-7. See http://www.aercrete.se/20-2/ for more info... Above product is used by another company that performs construction work and has a data table with ratios of ingrediens and compression strengths. It's in swedish but use google translate... http://www.skumbetong.nu/phone/skumbetong.html#data Also see a video clip! I'm not associated with those companies... nor know anything about Aercell A-7 foaming agent, but you could contact them... I have a nice home already, but I might be interested in this technology if it can be delivered in a turn key project for nordic climates too, and would than really drill down into agents nature. Good luck with your project!! Br, Arslan Aga
