VERY, very interesting. Neat, even.

I'm betting that Line-X franchises have doubled in price recently.

Holy Crap
Well worth d-loading/installing the macromedia player
(almost didn't watch it because I didn't feel like installing it lol)

Are you sure Duration can't do the same thing?
Some people may think it would.

The test might have been a little better if they had actually mortared the concrete block walls in the explosion instead of dry stacking them.

You beat me to it... Thanks Fox.

Either way I would love to be the owner of a Line-X franchise right about now...

I was noticing the same thing. It was hard to tell.

Next thing you know UGL and every other thick coating company will be touting these bomb proofing abilities.

There was mortar, it looked like, but certainly no horizontal or vertical reinforcing. Plain old fiber reinforced stucco would do the same thing, on a reinforced wall.

Cost of fiber-stucco vs. line-X?

That was pretty cool. Didn't look like the un-coated block was put together all that well, but the stuff still looks worth while if you got the money.

We've been using it for a few years instead of fiberglass for those situations where a customer has or needs a dry area under a deck. Most common is the customer wants to enclose the area under a deck and make it a heated living area while still retaining the deck area above. So far it has well surpassed what we came to expect from fiberglass applications. Current costs run about $11 a sq ft not counting prep and finish work done by carpenter.
