ABSTRACT:
In a first aspect, a lightweight building material for use in above grade construction comprising cement, fly ash, cellulose fiber, and water. In cured form, the material has the appearance and strength of standard concrete, but is lighter in weight and has preferable thermal properties. The material is capable of being sanded, chiseled, drilled, sawed, nailed and bolted in a manner similar to like operations with wood. In a second, separate aspect, the lightweight building material is manufactured into a lightweight aggregate material suitable for use in the construction of pre-cast objects, such as, for example, construction blocks. In a third, separate aspect, a method of manufacturing a lightweight aggregate material includes the steps of providing a lightweight building material in wet pulp form, adding one part of wet pulp to three or more parts of dry aggregate, and mixing the wet pulp and dry aggregate in a mixing screw conveyor. In a fourth, separate aspect, an adjustable masonry wall and foundation jig is used to construct a monolithic footing and slab. In a fifth, separate aspect, a method of construction of cast-in-place structures comprises suspending a form apparatus over footings and pouring a building material between forms of the apparatus.
