BASE BLOCK AND METHODS

摘要

A wall base block includes opposed top and bottom faces, first and second side faces, and first and second end faces. The first end face is convex, and the second end face is concave and of generally the same curvature as the first end face so that the convex first end face of one base block can closely nest the concave second end face of an adjacent base block. The block includes alignment indicia to assist in aligning adjacent nested blocks in straight or other predetermined angular relationships. The base blocks can be used to make straight or curved bases for a wall.

1. A wall base block comprising:
(a) opposed top and bottom faces; (b) opposed first and second side faces extending between the top and bottom faces; (c) opposed first and second end faces extending between the top and bottom faces and between the first and second side faces; wherein (d) the first end face is convex and the second end face is concave and of generally the same curvature as the first end face, so that the convex first end face of one wall base block can closely nest within the concave second end face of an adjacently placed second wall base block; and (e) alignment indicia on the top face adjacent the first and second end faces of the base block to assist in aligning adjacent nested blocks in straight or other predetermined angular relationships.
