ABSTRACT:
A method of forming a structural wall using lightweight or heavyweight block or brick. A removable lightweight wall panel is used as a guide for forming the wall. The method includes first installing the removable wall panel vertically next to a chalk line on the foundation. The chalk line is used to mark a horizontal line along one side of the wall to be constructed. The wall panel is plumbed vertically and leveled horizontally. The wall panel includes horizontal level lines 8 inches, 2 feet and 6 feet from a bottom of the wall panel. The level lines are used as a level guide to make sure each row or course of blocks are level as a block wall is built upwardly. A bonding agent is now placed on the bottom and on one end of a plurality of concrete blocks for forming a first course of blocks. The blocks are then laid end to end next to each other and next to one side of the wall panel for forming a first row of blocks. The bonding agent is then applied to the top of the first course of blocks. The bonding agent is now applied to the ends of a plurality of concrete blocks for forming a second course of blocks. The blocks are then laid end to end next to each other on top of the first course of blocks for forming a second course of blocks. The applying of the bonding agent to the blocks and laying courses of blocks one on top of each other is continued upwardly until the top of the last course of blocks coincides with the top of the wall panel.
