Figures 2 through 6 show how corners can be constructed to minimize cutting of units while maintaining modularity of the construction. A nice feature with this style and size of block is that you can make a corner with the standard block Therefore you do not have to have a special corner block to make a corner shape. Although a minimum block length of 7.5 in Due to corner perpendicular wall setback per course, to maintain running bond course alignment, cut the adjoining unit to the perpendicular wall face labeled compac ii cut unit as needed in both directions for proper wall joint alignment. Always remember to lay the foundation correctly and start your wall from the corners for optimal results.
Corner blocks are available to build angled walls more easily It is essential that the corner be built as shown on the foundation or floor plan to maintain modular dimensions For maximum construction efficiency and economy, concrete masonry elements should be designed and constructed with modular coordination in mind. Ab corner blocks are manufactured to be used with ab stones, a 12 degree setback wall With some adjustments they can be modified to work with ab classic walls (6 degree setback) and ab three walls (3 degree setback).
