Block strength tested 42.7 lb/si
-
Hi to all AirCeters,
I just started to prepare blocks for our dome-project. And I put some samples to the material testing lab at the university of Costa Rica. The results are 3 kg/cm2. This means about 42.7 pounds / square inch. In the cross-section image of the E-Handbook there are noted 70 lb/si.
Can I use my blocks? Or what can I do to improve the strength of my blocks? (I use the original Domegaia recipe and form). Thank you very much for your comments.
