1. A wall construction system, comprising:
a first block having a first surface and a first void; a second block having a second surface and a second void, wherein the second surface of the second block is positioned atop the first surface of the first block to define an interface plane between the first and second surfaces and wherein the first and second voids have first and second heights, respectively; and a hollow shear member having a first shear surface and a second shear surface opposite the first shear surface wherein each of the first shear surface and the second shear surface extends a full height of the shear member, spans the interface plane, extends into the first and second voids, and is contacted by cementitious material disposed in the voids so that the shear member is fully encased within the cementitious material and the cementitious material is disposed within the full height of the shear member and wherein the full height of the shear member is less than the first and second heights; wherein the cementitious material engages opposing walls of the first and second voids; and wherein all of the shear member is spaced apart from the opposing walls of the first and second voids. |
