Benefits of technology

[0010] This invention relates primarily to the construction of a unique building block, one fabricated totally from waste materials, and a number of systems by which the block may be fabricated and molded, into a high strength, lightweight finished product.

Problems solved by technology

It is also been found that utilizing high compression upon these types of ingredients works negatively on the hardening process as the blocks are formed.

Embodiment Construction

[0056] In referring to the drawings, and in particular FIG. 1, is an example of the way that the blocks can be fabricated by the system of this invention as readily disclosed. The building block 1 will be of standard shape or appearance, but can be fabricated to any size, but generally may be in the range of four inches high, eight inches wide, and twelve inches in length (4″×8″×12″). Obviously, other dimensions may be used for the block of this invention, and depending upon which system is used to fabricate the blocks, the dimensions are typically 9½″×8″×17½″. The extruded block, a block of any length, even up to many feet in length, such as sixteen (16′) as previously stated, could be developed. Or, where the block is molded by hydraulic pressure, it may have dimensions similar to those as shown in FIG. 1. In addition, the block may be molded or extruded having supplemental configurations, such as the upper and lower grooves 2 and 3, in addition to the tongue and grooves 5-8, as n...

Abstract

A compressed building block formed of a pre-mix of fly ash, Class C type, are combined with various aggregates either ground wood and/or chips, having maybe a small amount of Portland cement added thereto, moisturized, and then either molded, extruded or compressed in a press into the configuration of a block. Boron as a mold retardant and an insecticide, may be added to the composition, to provide the formed block with further beneficial attributes. The blocks may be formed by a system for extruding such blocks from the formulation, or they may be formed by means of a mold or hydraulic or other press and pressed into the configuration of the desired block, needed for the construction.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application is a Continuation-In-Part of the application having Ser. No. 11 / 238,934, which was filed on Sep. 29, 2005, which is a Continuation-In-Part application of the non-provisional patent application having Ser. No. 10 / 411,551, filed on Apr. 10, 2003, based upon provisional patent application having Ser. No. 60 / 371,441, filed on Apr. 11, 2002, which is owned by the same inventors.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] This invention relates principally to a building block, one that is constructed, generally of waste material, such as fly ash, and can be either extruded or compressed under pressure into the fabrication of a building block for use for constructing buildings or the like. [0003] There are numerous building blocks that are available in the art for use for the construction primarily of commercial and industrial type of buildings, and even some of such blocks are used for constructing residential homes, as known. For exa...
