This isnt new and thats not important but it has been adapted in a very dangerous manner. There is a reason earth bag buildings are curvy and ofter have deep walls. This high rise vertical structure with thinnish walls is scaring me. I agree with steve.

They must be used close or similar to original cal earth or classical corebelled dome/arch/conical tower principles or you will simply die under tons of sand. Used correctly they are strongest buildings known. Please use responsibly. Using sandbags this verticle way is entirely unstable and dangerous.
