You'd have to coat it with something UV resistant since ABS degrades in the sun but sure why not. There's a variant of this using foam and concrete. https://w

- jacquesm 7y agoThat's how a lot of foundations are poured here. Super clever system.
- LegitShady 7y agoICF (insulated concrete forms) are pretty common depending on where you live. You have to build the formwork to pour the concrete walls anyways, so building it to stay in place and act as insulation is just smart provided you can reliably get concrete everywhere you want. I like them, although for larger structures the formwork gets re-used so generally if they're insulated its after.
- gav 7y agoI helped a friend build a house out of those foam blocks: it's a lot of fun and you're able to bring a bunch of people together in a "barn raising" tradition that you wouldn't be able to do with traditional construction.
