ICF INfill

[Big Neil]

Could a CLC/Foamed concrete of the appropriate mix be used instead of a traditional concrete mix in an ICF build? Is there a particular reason if not, why? I mean it's used in roads structure infill and such..

Is there a particular reason why you would want to.

Better insulating properties, lighter so one would assume cheaper to transport, no requirement for vibrating and in parallel less likelihood of creating voids. But that's not the question really. If no one has thus far done it, I wonder why.

Ask an SE. 

That's the trouble with asking interesting questions  ... when you do,  the first impulse is to do it the same way as before. And the next to deflect responsibility for  the answer to an expert.

 

Try it?

[Russell griffiths]

I thought it was non structural and just used for fill.
