Abstract

Means for erecting a wall of preferably disc-like wall blocks, particularly glass blocks, having marginal support portions adjacent the wall surfaces limiting the bearing sides of the blocks, an offset surface being located between the support portions. A flat strip is located between the offset surfaces of superimposed or adjacent wall blocks which is made preferably of tension material. Support pieces are connected to the flat strip or are integrally formed therewith, the support pieces having a suitable support section adapted to be located between superimposed or adjacent support portions.
