ABSTRACT:
A block spacer system for locating and supporting a plurality of blocks arranged end to end in a lateral direction so as to form vertically adjacent lower and upper tiers of a mortarless wall structure. The spacer system includes horizontal and vertical block spacer members where the horizontal block spacer member is secured to a downwardly adjacent block of the lower tier and has a frontal support member proximate a front face of the downwardly adjacent block of the lower tier. The frontal support member has an upstanding locator wall surface facing rearwardly for abutment with the front face of the adjacent block of the upper tier to define a forward locator position, offset the upper tier rearwardly and prevent forward displacement of the upper tier relative to the lower tier. In addition, a spacer web on the forward locator wall surface defines a lateral locator position.
