Sizes

The BigBlocksconcrete block interlocking system comes in three sizes; small, standard and large. These sizes allow for complete interlocking of any wall two blocks or higher. Most construction uses the standard size but small and large blocks are also available. The small and large blocks are used to interlock corners and finish end walls

Lifting

BigBlocksconcrete blocks are positioned with "gravity type" scissor lifters for safety and reliability. As the concrete is recycled and has no specific strength the use of precast lifters would be dangerous (they can also be damaged during block placement making future lifting dangerous). A loan lifter can usually be provided. All our lifters are certified and tagged.

The interlocking pattern is simple with enough tolerance to allow fast installation. Blocks with overly complicated systems of interlocking can become very difficult to install costing time and money.
