This is our first drop test. The block is a 10% cement mix using the soil from our second excavation site. As we're still pretty new at this we were pretty happy with the results. The block had only 1 1/2 weeks cure time so it was not even ready yet, but we wanted to know what it was really all about so we sacrificed one.

  • Yep, the appropriate height of a drop-test is about 2 m. Plus it should not collapse after sitting 24 hours in water. If it doesn't - it's a good block.
