A wall construction system includes multiple block types that interfit with one another to form walls in a staggered arrangement. Block types include jamb blocks having front and back surfaces, a planar surface on a first end, and a second side having a projecting surface or a receiving surface configured to mate with the projecting surface. The jamb block includes a top mating surface and a bottom mating surface configured to mate with the top mating surface. Webs extend from the front surface to the back surface to form voids. A multi-directional elevation is formed over a void adjacent the planar surface to permit stacking of blocks in two orientations. Other block types include a half jamb block having a web to form a void and a planar surface, and a web stretcher having a projecting surface on one end and a receiving surface on another end.

A wall reinforcement system is provided. The wall reinforcement system includes a plurality of spaced apart channels formed in a side of a wall. At least one reinforcement rod is positioned in each of the channels. The at least one reinforcement rod is formed from basalt fibers. An adhesive mixture is positioned in each of the channels and configured to retain the at least one reinforcement rods within the channels.

A system includes apparatus and methods for providing continuous structural support to footings and hollow core wall units. In operation, wire rope chairs, connectors, wedge pins, and a tensioner tool are used to interconnect wire rope within footings and hollow core wall units laid on the footings, allowing for continuous wire rope within selected units that when grouted, provide an interconnected reinforced structural wall that is safer to install than traditional methods, with other advantages.

A construction element includes at least one module with a rectangular parallelepiped shape, hollow and made of a composite material. The module is delimited by an enclosure with four panels, two first opposing parallel panels and two second panels perpendicular to the first panels. The second panels include at least one groove parallel to the first panels. Each second panel is extended on one side by an L-shaped profile and on the other side by a flat profile. The profiles are elements protruding outwards, parallel to the groove.

In accordance with one aspect, a wall construction system includes a plurality of blocks configured to interfit in multiple courses with aligned interior voids being defined by the blocks. At least one shim is disposed between two of the plurality of blocks, wherein each shim includes a main body having a curved surface including a portion having a non-constant radius of curvature. A cementitious material disposed in the aligned interior voids
