Publication number: 20080095584Abstract: A mortar-less retaining wall apparatus is built from of a plurality of masonry blocks, each masonry block having four side walls and two end walls, two or more masonry blocks being abutted on respective side walls, at least one of the end walls of each masonry block having a split texture surface and a plurality of recesses creating a natural stone simulated surface. One or more of the masonry blocks each has a side wall that tapers from one end wall to the other end wall, thus allowing either straight or curved walls to be built by changing the relative orientation of the tapers of adjoining blocks.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 26, 2007Publication date: April 24, 2008Applicant: Kiltie CorporationInventors: Todd Strand, Peter Stroh

Patent number: 7244079Abstract: A retaining wall system is comprised of a plurality of courses of side-by-side parallelogram front face patterns, each parallelogram front face pattern formed by first and second rows of a plurality of quadrilateral face patterns. The first and second rows of the plurality of quadrilateral face patterns have the same width and collectively define a height of the parallelogram front face pattern, with each of the parallelogram front face patterns having the same height. The quadrilateral face patterns in the first row have a width different than that of the quadrilateral face patterns in the second row. Each parallelogram front face pattern in a first course overlies two parallelogram front face patterns in an immediately adjacent course. The combination of off-sets of the quadrilateral face patterns in each parallelogram front face pattern and overlapping of parallelogram face patterns in adjacent courses creates a retaining wall having a non-uniform appearance of a natural stone wall.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2005Date of Patent: July 17, 2007Assignee: Kiltie CorporationInventors: Peter J. Blomquist, Todd P. Strand

Patent number: 6960048Abstract: A modular retaining wall system uses a plurality of different sized masonry blocks to form uniform sized modules for constructing a segmented retaining wall. Each module has the same overall dimensions of height, width and depth, while the masonry blocks used to define the module vary in size and shape. Walls or structure faces have vertical or vertically set back surfaces are possible, using interlocking pins, channels and pin holes. A pin having an adjustable length is provided to accommodate masonry blocks of varying height.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2002Date of Patent: November 1, 2005Assignee: Kiltie CorporationInventors: Peter J.
