Abstract
A mortarless block system for forming walls from blocks which are stackable in sequential rows upon each other. Upper rows of blocks positioned upon lower rows are securable by positioning of support rods through aligned passages thereof. The passages extend between upper and lower notches in each respective block. The support rods are engaged to connectors which are sized to fit completely within the notches to thereby leave the upper and lower surfaces of each lower row flush to stacking overhead rows thereon.
