Method for making block forms for receiving concrete

Abstract

A foam block wall system is formed from a plurality of interconnected individual foam blocks. The individual foam blocks have a plurality of vertically oriented, quadrilateral core members spaced evenly within the block. The spaces between the core members define a plurality of vertically oriented chambers which receive liquid concrete. A plurality of connectors serve to connect the individual blocks into an integrated structure. A generally U-shaped bracket is secured to the floor or other supporting structure to provide support for the bottom layer of blocks. A generally H-shaped connector rests between successive vertical layers to provide both vertical and lateral stability. Generally U-shaped connectors connect adjacent blocks to provide vertical and lateral stability. A cabling system secures the individual blocks to the floor, also providing vertical and lateral support.
