Wall construction

Abstract

A kit for forming a hollow block assembly to be used to construct a wall, the kit consisting of two face panels and a plurality of fasteners, each face panel comprising a plurality of spaced apart flanges extending perpendicularly from and attached to each panel so that a hollow block structure is assembled when the flanges of the face panels are connected together, directly or indirectly, by the fasteners.

1 . A kit for forming a hollow block assembly to be used to construct a wall, the kit comprising: at least two face panels and a plurality of fasteners, each face panel comprising a plurality of spaced apart flanges extending perpendicularly from and attached to each panel so that a hollow block structure is assembled when the flanges of the face panels are connected together, directly or indirectly, by the fasteners, wherein the face panels are molded of a resin selected from the group consisting of a thermoplastic resin and a thermoset resin, wherein the flanges of the face panels are integrally molded with the face panels, wherein each flange of the face panels is perforated therethrough with a plurality of apertures, and wherein the fasteners are steel rods having an outside diameter smaller than the inside diameter of the apertures so that when the flanges of one panel are aligned with the flanges of the other panel, the steel rods can be positioned in the apertures.

       11 . A hollow block assembly to be used to construct a wall, comprising: two face panels, each face panel comprising a plurality of spaced apart flanges extending perpendicularly from and attached to each panel, the flanges of one face panel facing and aligned with the flanges of the other face panel; and a plurality of fasteners connecting the flanges together, wherein the face panels are molded of a resin selected from the group consisting of a thermoplastic resin and a thermoset resin, wherein the flanges of the face panels are integrally molded with the face panels, wherein each flange of the face panels is perforated therethrough with a plurality of apertures, and wherein the fasteners are steel rods having an outside diameter smaller than the inside diameter of the apertures, the steel rods being positioned in the apertures.
