ABSTRACT:
A building method and blocks in which the blocks have integrally formed joining elements along two axes, including a yin yang element to allow selective reversibility of the blocks to form a self-joint with another yin yang element on another block. The yin yang element is universal, and the shapes, volumes, and areas of a male yang and a female yin member are substantially equal on each side of a bilateral plane through the yin yang self-jointing element. Molded masonry blocks formed from cement, water, aggregate, and chemical admixture are assembled without mortar to provide a building system characterized by numerous advantages. Integral complementary elements on said blocks provide a continuous weatherstop in the assemblage along an axis different from the axis of a side having a yin yang element.
