Abstract:
A component is a building block having a pair of parallel load-bearing concrete side walls separated by a gap and joined by crossed metal ties which bridge the gap. The outer faces of the side walls can be covered with a decorative finish such as stone. The blocks have an added end wall which enables pillars to be built. The method of casting the blocks utilizes a collapsible metal mold which permits the side walls to be stepped.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for making a component for masonry construction, the method comprising the steps of:\n preparing a mold with outside perimeter walls and inside perimeter walls on a base, the inside perimeter walls having two pairs of slots arranged on a long axis of the inside perimeter; inserting a reinforcement tie into each pair of slots so that part of the reinforcement lies between the inner and outer walls of the remainder of the reinforcement and spans the space between the pairs of inner walls; filling the space between the inner and outer walls with hardenable construction mix; and removing the cast component from the mold_by force applied to the reinforcement.
