/diy/ - Do It Yourself

This company makes fabric roofings which they even combine with just these concrete blocks

Although something a bit more isolating than a literal tent would be nice.

You can get a complete metal shed of that size for less than the cost of one wall. Probably close to the price of one from IPOR or other cheapo blocks, too.

nice support ribs on this one

>>2008486
thanks, that's about what I expected desu

lots of cool stuff here

>how to make a roof
easy

>>2008481
With the whole zombie fad that went on for a long time I'm surprised nobody made a story where a group of people built a fortress with this and used the heavy equipment as killdozers to dominate the world

>>2008552
be the change you want to see in the world, anon

>>2008496
Nice

>>2008481
Don’t be weird anon. Just use CMU

I bet there is a guy from bumfuck nowhere on youtube, who explains how to calculate this with a broken bottle and a cucumber

Masonry is deadly when it falls. Those beams should be supporting steel or precast slabs.

Come to Germany, since christmas was cancelled, we have a lot of cheap Merkel lego surplus

>>2008496
That's a baseplate, you can't connect anything to their underside.

I just reported you for racism outside of /b/

>>2010508
>Parthenon
something without roof, thanks

>>2010383
If you look the bricks have a slight arch, won't fall unless some bricks get knocked out by something.

>>2010927
I just reported you for reporting a report.

i'm a retard, why are people not buliding houses from bricks like pic rel ? they look easy to assemble and i think would be pretty sturdy with mortar between them

>why are people not buliding houses from bricks like pic rel ?
The ones in the OP are huge, expensive, wasteful and you need a machine to lift them.

Instead people use CMU https://youtu.be/Qfw679NHSAs

>>2011924
another retard question then
why not make them smaller ? cost efficiency ?
my biggest fear is that i will lie these bolocks in vid rel in a way that will make them bent
that's why i am scared of laying bricks, altho i am thinking of working as brick layer (whatever it's called in english)
lego like bricks would give better guidlines

>>2008552
Almost all zombie stories are extremely retarded.

They did. https://youtu.be/Aq6bv3r4dIA
>will make them bent
People use tools so that won't happen.

thx anon very educative

People who can't afford a laser level use water tubes.

Too logical. That’s the probably. Anyone with a metal shed and a tractor with a cab and a bucket is practically invincible.

>lego like bricks would give better guidlines
This it the closest I have seen to Lego.
No mortar, no training.

From your pic I’m assuming you’re Dutch too, wondering how you’re going to stack those 2400kg blocks since you can’t forklift stack them, and how you’re going to keep them from sinking.

Also they are a huge big cold bridge/reservoir so a space heater won’t cut it and it’ll be freezing unless you isolate the inside.

> roof
Make one side a bit higher, nail/bolt 2x4”s along the top and put some corrugated metal sheet.

> other uses
People built a temporary church out of them once in Enschede. Also used as anti-vehicle barriers like in >>2010825 and to keep people from falling/driving into canals during road works

>>2010941
The benefits of the arch is taken away by the weight resting on the beams though?

Sure the beams will last a long time but still.

>>2011930
Uniblocks, M6 blocks and profiled concrete blocks are popular in South America and Eastern Europe but for skilled masons it’s easier to have at least one flat side so they can build any shape they need instead of just straight walls.

Also solid anything is a good heat conductor, hollow blocks offer better insulation

>>2008481
i want these as a front yard fence, but mom said no

>>2008481
>I think it would be fun to build a hut/shed/workspace kind of building from these type of concrete lego blocks.

Do not reply to this poster. He is obviously a German building a pillbox in an Frenchman's back yard.
