The TEAM
"Most interesting - Now what?"

Filling a cavity NOTE: Dry concrete mix with pea gravel is being poured into the VOBB block with water from a water hose. Simple, easy and cheap!! On the bag of concrete mix, it says just add water. It does not say you have to mix it in a mixer. As VOBB has no weak mortar joints, this method greatly reduces the labor cost and waste of building a quality concrete block wall.
