I was in a home in El Salvador that had a s-c floor. Would not have known had I not been told.
There is a press, Cinvaram brick press, that uses s-c to make blocks with 25,000# pressure. I have seen them in the Dominican Rep and Malawi, etc. Equal to a fired brick. Hand operated and comes in several sizes. Cure for ten days. I ordered one out of Colombia for an American one time. Now they are make in most developing countries.
