Cheap, environmentally friendly, low budget and creative. Ayos to. Bawas basura na, nakatulong pa para makabuo ng classrooms. COOL! Lalo na't alam nating mababa ang budget na nilalaan ng gobyerno sa edukasyon. :)
Great work. We did a wall with empty scotch bottles. In a cool climate the bottles may be filled with water or and antifreeze solution that will will store heat for night time. Also, try strips of expanded wire imbedded between the rows for reinforcing along with small re-bar if the budget permits.
i'm from the philippines (filipinas) and i know it's a land of earthquakes and typhoons (tropical storms/cyclones)... i'm not sure how wise is this gimmick.
@pinoyblues69 - why am i not suprise, when a filipino have a great idea, what other ignorant pinoy do??? criticize it!!! tsk tsk tsk typical pinoy... Im no engineer but dont you think before you start building a structure you have to design it first and think about the factors
@Iswup typical pinoy. cannot accept criticism... i'm not ignorant, btw. and i'm an engineer... i hope you use your head next time instead of your fingers. think before you click.
As an engineer I would like to know what all this type of construction would withstand i.e. wind, earthquakes, etc. Does anyone out there know this info?
you could reinforce it by using fabric / cables or something like that to tie the bottles together. then it could be similar to reinforced concrete, a bit weaker but comparable.
if the bottles are not connected in some way but mainly held together by gravity, earthquakes will be a big problem, and storms also could knock it over. then buildings higher than 1 level would be too dangerous, roofs shouldnt be too heavy.

@pinoyblues69 Video says ' Gale Force winds', pretty sure if it's that tough it can be adapted to withstand earthquakes.

@lectricgenius for wind its like a brick wall, but earthquakes will destroy it easily... just less deadly
