Not many people live there, mostly Naval Forces are based there. There is no road there, neither automobile nor railway. Only ship or plane. The southern part of the Kamchatka Peninsula has moved 2 meters to the east.

A volcano is currently erupting in Kamchatka.

Has the tsunami from the Kamchatka earthquake already reached the US? What are the consequences?

At the same time we had a 4.0 magnitude earthquake with an epicenter 50 miles from me. No casualties or damage.

The arms of the inverted V are offset from the center. They are not on the same axis. One arm supports the far side, the other arm supports the near side. I loaded 250 kg (~500 lbs) on the center and nothing cracked.

Made from shit and sticks. 4 meters long.

Here is an example of what AAC looks like with the chamfer removed. The exterior finish is silicone paint only.

These blocks are similar to pumice stone (the cubes that rub your heels). But AAC is much stronger and warmer than pumice stone.

I will plaster the outside and inside with facade putty, maybe go over it with a foam roller to give it texture, and paint it with facade paint. I started building a garage to learn how to work with these blocks. Then I'll build a house, and maybe I'll chamfer each block and just paint it with...

in terms of thermal conductivity - similar to wood and sometimes better.

R - means reinforced.

in the USA it is known as Autoclaved aerated concrete, AAC...

This is cellular concrete. The density in a dry state is 600-800 kg / cubic meter. i.e. it does not sink in water. Thermal conductivity is like that of a wooden beam. It is made in large forms, then sawn into the required dimensions. It is made from sand and cement. Make a very liquid solution...
