A bond beam is a continuous reinforced concrete beam cast inside the wall itself, and this is the block that makes one. The internal webs are moulded thin so the bricklayer knocks them out with a hammer on site, turning the course into a long open trough that takes horizontal steel and concrete fill. Your engineer will nominate where bond beams go - commonly at the top of a retaining or boundary wall, at floor and roof level, and at intervals up a tall wall. Until the webs are knocked out it lays just like a standard block.
Key Features
- Knock-out webs - form a continuous reinforced bond beam anywhere in the wall, on demand
- Handles and stacks like a standard block until the webs are removed
- The standard way to satisfy an engineer's horizontal reinforcement requirement in blockwork
- Essential at the top course of reinforced retaining and boundary walls
- Lightweight at 11.10kg vs 13.0kg dense-weight
- 144 per pallet, 12.5/m2 - same coursing as the 15.01
- AS/NZS 4455.1, Exposure durability grade
Specifications
- Material: Concrete
- Dimensions: 390 x 140 x 190mm
- Weight: 11.1kg each
- Coverage: 12.5 blocks per m2
- Pallet quantity: 144 units
- Manufactured to AS/NZS 4455.1
