Hydraulic cement strength

[Centerline]

Hi, can anyone tell me how strong hydraulic cement such as e-marco 400 is?

I'm doing a somewhat complicated rockwork overhang that will be heavy. I had planned on using west system epoxy and glass tape. Its great stuff if time consuming and I've used it many times in the past however I have a bunch of the e-marco stuff already so why not?

Thoughts?

Google "Ancient Rome Invents hydraulic cement" :p
Use some reinforcements inside the cement to distribute the weight. plastic crate acrylic rods pvc pipe etc, similar to using rebar in concrete construction.

Ive really wanted to do one of these tanks.

I just built these with e-marco.

Great stuff..... actually best in my opinion.

Ya, looking forward to the process. I have a nice bonsai collection and may use some basic bonsai rules to help guide the structure.

That looks fantastic! Nice job gathering the rock into a cohesive structure.
