OUTSTANDING : o .... Will you be showing the exterior wall applications : i.e. stone, stucco, brick ?? And the interior wall application i.e. drywall, stone, etc ..... ??
We go with a stack bond because the block itself is not structural. The block is just a form that provides many other benefits. The strength comes with the steel reinforced concrete. You can use a running bond if you'd like but it is not necessary. We also believe that making the construction process as easy as possible is very important. Starting each row with the same size block and running it all the way down gives you one cut at the end of each wall. Thank you for your interest
@theperfectblockiccf I have to respectfully disagree. Even if poured solid the block work is susceptible to sheer force,think of your walls as a sail, that's the whole idea of a running bond. Best of luck.

I am going to do my best to get out there for these applications. We have some projects going up so keep an eye out for those videos!
why dont you make the roof from those blocks?
I can't understand how you went with a stack bond on your block.
I can tell you that would not pass inspection here in the Northeast. @@he-manwomunhatersclub
