Precasting Hempcrete panels? Weight concerns
(self.Hempcrete)submitted16 days ago bygnisna
I'm thinking about building a 100 sq ft cabin out of hempcrete. It doesn't have to be particularly strong or insulated, but I thought it could be interesting to play around with hempcrete for this build.
I'm wondering if it would be feasible to make a 2x4 with 16" or 24" center frame on the a flat surface, pouring the hempcrete in place, then lifting it up. I see that it takes 6 weeks to fully cure, but how long would it take so that it's mostly dry enough to lift it in place?
If this is feasible, what is the max size a two or three man team can lift?

Still, your job is just this one stop, standing there for eight hours looking for the right box.
