Wall building system and method

摘要

The wall building system and method uses a block for building walls and other structures. The block is formed with an external face member and an internal face member connected by an inner core, which has an outer surface formed with a concave profile. The block is fabricated in one piece to enhance strength and stability. Each face is provided with a continuous groove therearound. The continuous grooves are adapted to receive locking elements therein to interlock the blocks. Utilizing a locking element eliminates the need for binding compounds, such as mortar, thereby greatly reducing labor and material costs.

主权项

1. A block for use in a building erection, consisting of:
an inner face member formed of a composite material of predetermined thickness, and defining a perimeter there around, the perimeter having a groove disposed continuously within the thickness of the perimeter; an outer face member formed of a composite material of predetermined thickness, and defining a perimeter there around, the perimeter having a groove disposed continuously within the thickness of the perimeter; wherein the inner face member and the outer face member being disposed in a substantially parallel manner, and being spaced apart by a span of predefined distance; a core member formed of insulative composite material and disposed in the span between the inner face member and the outer face member and being coextensive therewith; the core member having a smooth concave profile along a perimeter thereof connecting the inner face member to the outer face member defining a continuous arcuate surface from the inner face member to the outer face member; and locking members being fabricated from steel disposed in the grooves of each of the inner face member and the outer face member; wherein the concave profile of the core member of the plurality of blocks defines passages through the building erection for electrical conduits, plumbing conduits, heating and air conditioning conduits.
