SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING LOAD-BEARING HEMP SHIV CONCRETE BLOCKS
This application relates to a method of manufacturing a load-bearing hemp shiv concrete blocks using magnesium-based cement, the method including: measuring proportional parts of ingredients: a hemp shiv in 70-75% proportion by volume; a Magnesium Oxychloride Cement (MOC) in 20-25% proportion by volume; and water in 5-10% proportion by volume. The method includes depositing the measured ingredients in a mixer and mixing for a time period appropriate to the conditions to produce a slurry, wherein the time period is between ten minutes and thirty minutes; removing the slurry from the mixer; depositing the slurry into one or more molds comprising a frame with a lockable lid and a removable base; pressing, via a press, the slurry in the molds to a suitable level; allowing the pressed slurry to set and cure within the sealed molds to produce one or more load-bearing fiber based concrete blocks; removing the one or more load-bearing hemp shiv concrete blocks from the one or more molds by removing the lid of the molds.
