Hi Judith,

 

I had posted a simliar video to youtube earlier this month for my building inspector. I had a 1 part portland 1 part paper block that got torched for 5 minutes. I was impressed to see that the smoldering did not spread at all once the blow torch was turned off. I also dug into the block with a screw to see how much internal damage had been done. I had lost about 1" of papercrete at the point where the blowtorch was touching the block. Significantly more damage than a piece of wood, but nothing terrible.
