Stackable, interlockable building elements and system including such elements
This invention concerns a stackable, intertockable building element 10, 26 for use in constructing a structure 100, such as a wall or building. The building element 10, 26 is typically in the form of a bag and includes a body 12 having flexible walls defining an internal cavity, which is, in use, filled with a filling medium. The walls 18, 20 of the body which, in use, are the top and bottom walls have holes 20.1, 20.2 extending through them such that, when filled, the holes in the top and bottom walls align to receive a vertically extending support 22 therein. The support 22 secures the building elements 10, 26 to one another when stacked. This invention further extends to a building system including the building elements 10, 26 and a method of constructing a structure using such building elements.
