Masonry block anchor system

A method of using a 2-part masonry block anchor system in masonry construction, comprising:

• providing at least one block having four outer walls and one inner wall defining two internal vertical cavities, wherein said four outer walls include two sidewalls connected by two end walls, said inner wall connecting to said two sidewalls;
• providing at least one anchor having three vertical legs attached to a central horizontal member, and two vertical legs attached to said central horizontal member extending in an opposite direction from said three vertical legs, wherein said three vertical legs include a central leg and two outer legs, said two vertical legs meet said central horizontal member at a connection point opposite of a spacing between said three vertical legs, said three vertical legs of said at least one anchor are spaced apart from one another a complementary distance to a thickness of said end walls of said at least one block, said two vertical legs of said at least one anchor are spaced apart from one another a complementary distance to a thickness of said inner wall of said at least one block, each of the at least one anchors includes two spaces, formed from space created between said inner leg and each of said outer legs, for recessing said end walls, and each of the at least one anchor includes one space, formed from space created between said two vertical legs, for recessing said inner wall of said at least one block;
• placing a plurality of said at least blocks end to end;
• combining and engaging said at least one anchor with said plurality of blocks by securing with at least one anchor, thereby securing the plurality of blocks in a multilateral direction, wherein said multilateral direction includes both X axial and Y axial directions by recessing said sidewall of said at least one block within said space between the outer leg of said at least one anchor and said inner leg of said at least one anchor, and recessing said inner wall of said at least one block within said space between the two vertical legs of said at least one anchor;
• administering mortar to a top surface of a block in said plurality of blocks;
• placing at least one block on top of a joint of two lower blocks, thereby engaging at least one of said block anchors where the walls of said block are secured between the legs of said block anchors;
• and
• securing a vertical Z axial direction with weight of a plurality of blocks on a row of blocks above.
