Even in heavy termite areas, SmartBlock is used with accepted prevention measures. All of the measures are code approved. The inedible concrete is just not tasty to termites, insects, bacteria, or fungi. And it doesn't even decay, rot or mildew. SmartBlock can be assembled into permanent formwork in a fraction of the time it takes to start other types of construction.
Work is easy.
Blocks weigh less than two pounds - not 35 pounds, like masonry blocks. They can be cut with a hand saw, and they fit together with interlocking teeth. Steel reinforcement can be placed inside when needed. The system helps create straight and plumb walls with perfect right angles. Let's not go overboard.
