Abstract
An improved, high strength construction system that uses post tensioning. It is comprised of a series of interconnected, super heavy duty hollow core blockswith minimal ducts, a series of tendons, and a plurality of anchors or plateswith additional features. The systemis configured with the plurality of adjacent blockscontiguous and touching one another and demountably coupled to each other by means of the tendonsand anchors. The unique features include a strong, durable full plateand boltboth of which may be treated for corrosion resistance. This new coupling results in a structure that is far stronger than an ordinary block structure built with mortar and standard reinforcing. The SYSTEM has more predictable and controlled strength which is stronger than most reinforced concrete systems.
