Definitions

  • This invention relates to masonry blocks.
  • the masonry blocks presently available have a number of significant disadvantages.
  • the concrete in the blocks is generally poorly compacted and the blocks have a low permeability. They are difficult to lay correctly, do not form a strong bond at the corners of a building structure and require concrete or mortar to bond the blocks together.
  • Other disadvantages will be well known to the skilled addressee.
  • blocks which can be manufactured on a modular basis, e.g. with 1, 2, 3 or 4 holes.
  • the present invention resides in a masonry block of concrete or like material including:
  • the present invention resides in a building construction incorporating said masonry blocks.
  • the rims are inwardly tapered towards the top of the blocks and the sockets have a corresponding taper.
  • the blocks may have one, two, three of four core holes, the lengths of the blocks being arranged on a modular basis.
  • a pair of rubber, neoprene or other plastics material sealing strips are engaged in slots in one end of the blocks to sealably engage the other end of adjacent blocks. Sealing strips may also be provided between the rims around adjacent holes in the masonry blocks to sealably engage a superimposed block (or blocks).
  • the concrete in the blocks has a high impermeability.
  • Reinforcing wires or fibres e.g. of steel, glass or plastics material may be embedded in the concrete to increase the strength of the blocks.
  • the block 10 is cast and compacted in concrete in a suitable steel mould, the blocks being compacted by pressing a "gravity impact” compaction to form a dense, highly impervious block.
  • the block is rectangular in plan, end view and side view, with side walls 11 and end walls 12.
  • the length of the side walls 11 is four times the width of the end walls 12.
  • a peripheral rim 15 is formed around each core hole, each rim 15 having an inclined wall 16 the rim tapering inwardly towards the top of the block. As shown in Fig. 1, the rims 15 are spaced from the side- and end-walls 11, 12 to provide a peripheral abutment face 17 around the top of the block, while a raised portion 18 is provided between each pair of rims 15.
  • a peripheral abutment face 19 is provided around the bottom of the block.
  • each socket 20 having inwardly tapered walls 21 towards the top of the block, surround the core holes 14., each socket 20 corresponding to a rim 15 around the top of each core hole. As shown, the bottom face 22 of each intermediate wall 13 is spaced from the bottom of the block to provide clearance for the raised portions 18 when a block is superimposed on another block.
  • a pair of spaced, vertical grooves are formed in one of the end walls 12 and a neoprene sealing strip 23 is firmly engaged in each groove. (Small neoprene sealing strips may also be engaged in grooves extending across the block in the raised portions 18).
  • a wall is constructed using the masonry blocks as follows.
  • a first block 10a is placed on a flat foundation (not shown).
  • a second block 10b is laid end to end to the first block 10a, the sealing strips 23 on the block 10b engaging the adjacent end wall 12 of the block 10a.
  • the first course of blocks is completed by repeating this step.
  • the second course is then laid on top of the first course.
  • the third block 10c is laid in half-bond, equally spanning the first- and second blocks 10a, 10b, with 2 rims each of blocks 10a, 10b engaging in the complementary sockets 20 in the block 10c.
  • Sealing strips (of neoprene) 24 laid along the raised portions 18 of the blocks 10a, 10b sealably engage the bottom faces 22 of the block 10c to form a seal therebetween.
  • blocks are laid in end-to-end relationship along the top of the first course, locking adjacent blocks in the first course together.
  • block 10b was at the end, e.g., of a wall joined by another wall at right angles, a single hole block would be laid to the right hand side of block 10c. A two, three or four hole block is then laid over the free end of block 10b and along the block (or blocks) of the second wall (at right angles to the wall shown) to join the two walls together. In the third course, the blocks in that course would be laid over that corner block.
  • cyclone bolts can be passed down through the core holes 14, suitable capping plates being laid along the top of the wall and the bolts placed under tension.
  • soil, rock, concrete, or other filling may be placed down the core holes.
  • an insulating material may be placed down the core holes.
  • rolled steel tubular sections may be passed down through the core holes to form columns to strengthen the wall and at their tops, to support, e.g., a roof structure.
  • galvanized ties can hold the walls relative to one another.
  • a single neoprene seal may be provided centrally of the second end wall to engage the adjacent end wall of a second block between the seals in the end wall of that second block.
