An interlocking masonry H-block
A moulded interlocking masonry H-block for constructing a wall together with other masonry blocks and a method for forming said H-block. The H-block includes a rear wall and front wall connected by a web member, two sidewardly open apertures 5 extending vertically through the H-block between the rear and front walls for receiving a flowable concrete mixture therethrough for core filling. The generally vertical sides of the rear and front walls are registerable with opposing sides of abutting blocks to inhibit movement of said flowable concrete mixture out through a vertical interface between said blocks. At least a portion of the web member being removed after the 10 H-block has been moulded to provide a further pathway for the flowable concrete mixture.
