Construction blocks with jointed angled elements - with which simple strong dry walls or structures can be realised by building geometric shapes from symmetrical components

摘要

Set of construction blocks formed of angled elements which connect to each other are claimed. The blocks are useful for wall construction and can be of concrete, plastic, wood or similar rigid material. Blocks are symmetical and have equal shank lengths and an angled cross-section, chiefly with a 90 deg. included angle. The shank ends are pointed. Blocks are built up on a bricklaying principle, with offset joints, into free standing walls. A single brick design can form a dry wall and supports, capable of static loading. The hollow walls can be reinforced and filled with mortar. The horizontal block edges can be dowled together with edge profiles or round dowels. USE/ADVANTAGE - For concrete wall construction. Typical uses are in noise and explosion proof walls, and decorative walls for garden plants. Further uses are for furniture and room dividers using wood or plastic. Good stackability allows easy, cheaper transport. Walls can be built with only a few diff. components and are cheap and aesthetic. Walls can be both decorative and load bearing. Individual blocks are easily replaced. Wall strength is good even when constructed dry.
