Self-aligned and leveled, insulated, drystack block

摘要

A construction block has interior, tapered wall cells. The tapering of the walls provides precisely maintained interior geometry for a long life time of use of the molds employed in manufacture of such block. Insertable cores of precise dimension to fit intimately within such cells and to come into intermittent contact with similar cells in adjacent blocks in a running course of said blocks and with similar cells in adjacent blocks in adjacent courses of said cells provide for the erection of a standing wall from drystacked running courses of such block wherein such running courses are self-aligned and self-leveling. The intimate contact of the insertable cores permit the formation of open-gapped interlocks between blocks and running courses, which open-gapped interlocks are converted to closed-gapped interlocks when a wall erected of such running courses is coated with a surface bonding cement.
