Sniped from Slurry Guy
“My experiments have indicated that the more densely packed the paper fibers are, the better insulator it becomes. Foaming likely will produce the opposite effect.”
Hello,
This is what I need to know most. How thick a papercrete core do I need to gain maximum practical insulation value in a double thin shell Ferro cement structure, and what is the formula for best insulation?
Previous discussions seem to indicate that papercrete made with cement is probably better for insulation than mixes with sand added.
I plan to spray the papercrete on the inside of a 1” FC shell then add a second FC shell on the inside.
Will 12” be enough?
Has anyone tried Vacuum bagging wet papercrete to remove excess water and compress the papercrete?
