Description: |
Dynoblock is a consisting of mortarless, self-interlocking concrete block units. Each unit is a standard 8x8x16 size and features a central spline with five evenly spaced teeth on opposite sides of the spine. The mortarless construction of the wall lends itself to the use of an unskilled or semiskilled labor force. By offsetting the blocks, designers can develop patterns and textures while taking advantage of many possible shade and shadow effects. |
