That's pretty cool.

And once again forward thinking from this company that previous companies should have already figured out I would have thought.

Not sure a drop test is the right way to test out building brick properties
Here's a list of the tests they normally do - dropping not there - who'd have thought?
Guess the "Soundness" Test comes closest - now there's a video to make!!

Where are they?

I am a HUGE fan of compressed earth bricks and I was excited to learn that The Boring Co. would be bringing them mainstream.

Does anyone have any sources of information about whether they intend to go through with selling their CEBs? Have they made any from the Vegas excavated soil?

Any links to threads on other forums or videos about this topic would be much appreciated!
