FREESTANDING STRUCTURE
These simple shapes of Tumbled
Belgian Blocks t together to
form an attractive solution for
an endless array of possible
combinations - all without ever
cutting a single block. Let your
imagination run wild, or start with
one of our professionally designed
projects with complete, easy to
follow instructions. See store or
Menards.com for more details.
PATTERN OPTIONS
For a natural look, simply
follow no pattern. With random
placement, make sure to minimize
the number of matching joints to
maintain a sturdy structure.
PROJECT CONSTRUCTION
Prepare the Foundation A solid foundation is necessary to prevent
settling and tiling of each project. We recommend using a leveling pad,
unless local building code requires you to pour a concrete foundation or build
another type of foundation.
Tips for Building a Leveling Pad
Choose the location for the completed project; place and mark the
position of the base layer of blocks. Once marked, remove the blocks
and the organic top soil within the marked area.
If applicable to the area, create a leveling pad with a non-frost
susceptible, well graded, compacted angular gravel-sand mixture. The
leveling pad should be a minimum of 4 to 6 inches thick. For leveling
pads greater than 8” thick, then ll material shall be placed in more than
once lift. Each layer or lift of ll material shall be leveled and compacted
to a 95% Standard Proctor density before moving on.
Once the top layer of ll material is compacted and level, place the base
layer of blocks. The base layer should sit 1 to 2 inches below grade to
help further prevent shifting. Use additional ll material to level the base.
