 |
Safe - Over a million blocks in service with no lifting loop failures |
|
Secure - The lifting loop was designed by a professional engineer (PDF Lifting loop) |
|
Substantiated - Our MSE and Gravity wall design guides are reviewed by Professional Engineers |
|
Controlled - Our QA and QC program are under direct supervision of a Professional Engineer |
|
Documented - Mill certificates available on the galvanized lifting loop strand |
|
Consistent - Formed surfaces are flat, plane, and precise within 6mm tolerances |
|
Precise - Tight interlocking key 12mm gap tolerances ensure planar flatness |
|
Outstanding Durability - No rebar means no corrosion for a potential long service life |
|
Strength - High resistance to rotation around the shear key, reduced bulging potential |
|
Traceable - The serial numbers of the form are imprinted into the block when cast |
|
Verifiable - Optional permanent embedded numbers correlate with archived concrete test results |
|
Contractor friendly - Self aligns when stacked, reduces the on-site inspection requirement |
|
Portable - Can be removed, re-used for the service life of the galvanized loop |
|
Scalable - LOCK-BLOCK® Mini uses the same design guides, we recommend casting in geotextile tails rather then pinching |
|
Easy to configure - Many shapes to design with on height, length, transitions etc |
|
Robust - Few parts, chunky sections, forgiving design |
|
Stable - Higher rotational resistance than other derivative products |
|
Custom design - Inexpensive to cast in custom embodiments, anchors and holes for railing etc. |
|
Easy to beef up - Bolt the top courses together with our Patent Pending BOLT-LOCK® option or use LOCK-BLOCK® barrier |
|
Easy to idiot proof - MSE tails can be cast into the block eliminating pinch variables |
|
Self supporting - Large bearing area, provides it's own footing. |
|
Easy to stipulate - Specify the desired concrete properties and we produce to suit |
|
Easy to specify - Comprehensive Suggested Specification (PDF Suggested Specification) |
|
Widely available - LOCK-BLOCK® technology can be produced anywhere in the world, see contact page for licenses |
|
Proven - Thousands of walls in service, millions of blocks produced |
