FOX BLOCKS SHORT

RETURNS

USING EXTENDED FOX BLOCKS CORNERS:

1) Cut block for long leg of corner

(cut-off will give you an 8" off cut

you can use elsewhere in your wall).

2) Cut block for short leg of corner

(cut-off will give you a 24" off cut

you can use elsewhere in your wall).

3) Build wall creating a stacked seam. 4) Once wall is built brace with plywood

and 2 x 4s.

a) Screw plywood to 2 x 4

b) Screw 2 x 4 to Fox Blocks ties

c) Screw plywood to Fox Blocks corners

5) Place concrete.

SHORTEST RETURN POSSIBLE:

4" = 9 1/4"

6" = 11 1/4"

8" = 13 1/4"

10" = 15 1/4"

12" = 17 1/4"

You may need to leave a gap at the stacked

seam and use spray foam to ﬁll prior to

installing the bracing.

Each properly placed #8 deck screw will give

you 27 pounds of holding power in straight

pullout and 70 pounds in shear. This includes

a safety factor of 5.

Note: Corner will have a very high load of concrete during placement.

Please take the time to brace the corner properly.
