Abstract

A building system is disclosed where interlocking blocks (110, 120, 122) are used to produce a structure. A framework is constructed using elongate blocks (110) which interengage with one another. Lock pieces (120) are then put in place to lock the elongate blocks together, and then the remaining spaces in the framework either become wall openings such as windows or doors, or are filled in with filler (122) blocks which engage on the framework. Also is disclosed a building system where the end regions of two blocks placed in parallel define a slot, the axis of which lies parallel to the facing surfaces of the two blocks, and a groove closely adjacent to the slot and which extends across the facing surfaces of the two blocks, the system also comprising a connector piece and a lock piece, wherein the lock piece can be rotated, in the slot to allow placing and locking the connector piece in the groove.
