Not really.
The plastic may ignite, yes but the sand emptying out rapidly will most likely check the infano not fuel it. this house is safer that most modern buildings

No it won't. Sand/soil is a fire estinguisher. Starves flames of oxygen.

I am sure u are aware that the plastic is the holder of the sand. What happens when the holder(plastic) goes off? #betterimagined

Wow it looks well established too.
Having done some recycling projects (in theory) I believe it's a genius idea giving that the plastic takes about 2000 to decay. However, I think they should protect it against direct sunlight by means of coating. Otherwise sun can damage the bottle within weeks and with rain the sand can be washed off leading to collapse.

It isn't sand, it is concrete

Not so quick because of the sand inside the bottle. However if the sand were not inside the smoke from these bottles would be very poisonous.

Re: PHOTOS: House Construction With Plastic Bottles by Ghost01(m): 8:16am On Sep 29, 2017
Learnt sometime ago that unlike the regular brick houses, those built with sand-filled bottles tend to be (more) bullet-proof - as the sand prevents or slows down the movement of bullets more.

That is so so wrong.. That's the Lawlessness am talking about in this country.. House where Humans live.. Does anyone have the slightest idea what will happen if there is a form of stress on that thing call house.. Is going to shear and collapse on people living in it.. Not even an engineering test nor geophysical test is conducted.. And we are here celebrating lawlessness.. RUBBISH

Simply ingenious.
Re: PHOTOS: House Construction With Plastic Bottles by gabe: 10:28am On Sep 29, 2017
plastics are easy to dispose off. It just cost less to make new plastics. Political will+ strong personal commitment to recycling will soon remove all plastics from the garbage space. political will involves building recycling plants or giving private investors tax breaks and incentives. Personal commitment involves everyone sorting his trash and and delivering all used plastics to the collection points of the recycling plants. Also, plastics can be thermally broken down to produce less toxic fuels for waste to power plants. If we are determined, we can turn the mountains of waste in Lagos, Onitsha, Aba and all major cities to wealth, resulting in a cleaner Nigeria.

Not true! Or do sand burn? Most of the material is filling sand and the bottles are just to hold the sand

Not in between the bottles, I mean inside. It's mentioned in the article the bottles are filled with sand. also see that boy filling one using a stick to compact the sand.
It wouldn't be economically wise if the bottles are filled with concrete.

*Modified
As an engineer I know about methods and research to find alternative building materials. One of the most popular is actually using Styrofoam inside concrete to reduce both cost and weight of structures.
Styrofoam and plastic bottles are basically from the origin; non-boidegradable cheap organic products. And the fact that the bottles are already used makes them even cheaper. You get them basically free and get kids (as seen in the pic to fill them up with simple sand). It will like N6 per filled bottle. Six bottles can be equal to a 9inch Block. This simply you cut cost of blocks from around N150 to N36!
This is to all those claiming it's gonna be more expensive or stressful.
As I mentioned, my concern is the bottles exposed to sunlight outside. weathering can destroy the bottles in no time if not covered.
The building will cool though especially in hot climates like Northern Nigeria.

Never knew you were smart OOO..See what supporting Buhari can cause ....nice you made a lot of sense
