Abstract

A method for molding a block for an outdoor staircase stair includes filling a form with zero slump mix, the form having outer walls and a core member which includes a vertically disposed central recess extending into the core from its lower surface, filling the recess in the core member, agitating the filled form and recess, compressing the top of the mix in the form, passing a compression head through the form to transfer the formed mix to a pallet, and then curing the formed mix in a misting kiln.
