Representative concrete masonry blocks, specialty units and masonry reinforcement

01 / The material line card

Start with the unit. Coordinate the wall.

Separate the block schedule from the mortar, grout and accessories, then tie every item to the wall details. Kingston’s catalog provides concrete unit references; exact shapes, architectural finishes and supporting-material availability are confirmed against your project specification.

Standard Concrete Masonry Units

Select the unit configuration and dimensions before finalizing counts for each wall type.

  • Stretcher blocks
  • Flat units
  • Specified block dimensions
  • Lightweight, medium and normal-weight options by unit
For pricing

Unit type, catalog dimensions, required actual dimensions, density/weight class, compressive strength, wall use and quantities.

Identify load-bearing or non-load-bearing use from the project design. Unit strength and the completed wall design are separate requirements.

75% Solid Unit Configurations

Separate the catalog’s 75% solid configurations from the other block counts.

  • 75% solid flat units
  • 75% solid stretcher units
  • Specified size and weight-class combinations
For pricing

Exact unit designation, dimensions, required strength, density class, quantity and relevant wall details.

Kingston lists these as 75% solid units. Confirm the selected unit geometry and documentation rather than treating all solid configurations as interchangeable.

Architectural Block

Coordinate visible masonry with the project’s approved appearance and sample requirements.

  • Architectural CMU
  • Specified finish and color requirements
  • Matching architectural unit configurations
For pricing

Finish specification, color reference, sample/mockup requirements, exposed faces, dimensions and quantity.

Architectural block is part of Crestview’s current scope. Exact finish names, colors and special configurations require confirmation before quotation.

Shapes, Beams & Openings

Count special units separately so wall intersections, reinforced courses and openings are covered.

  • Bond-beam unit requirements
  • Lintel unit requirements
  • Corner and jamb units
  • Other specified specialty shapes
For pricing

Unit drawings, wall thickness, opening details, reinforcing layout, dimensions and counts by shape.

Current records support special-shape inquiries. Exact profiles, reinforcement clearances and availability are confirmed from the project details.

Mortar & Grout

Keep the materials that bond the units separate from grout used in specified cells and reinforced areas.

  • Specified masonry mortar
  • Preblended mortar requirements
  • Masonry grout
  • Mortar color and packaging requirements
For pricing

Mortar type and color, grout specification, quantities, bag/bulk preference, placement details and acceptable alternates.

Specific manufacturer, mix, packaging and availability are confirmed with the quote. No admixture or specialty-grout access is assumed.

Masonry Reinforcement

Tie the reinforcement request to the engineered wall details and unit configuration.

  • Joint reinforcement
  • Specified ladder / truss configuration
  • Reinforcing accessories by detail
For pricing

Wall thickness, reinforcement type, wire/bar dimensions, lengths, finish/corrosion protection, spacing and quantities.

Use the specified configuration and material. Reinforcement selection and spacing remain part of the project design.

Anchors & Ties

Coordinate masonry connections with the backup wall, cavity and adjoining construction.

  • Masonry anchors
  • Wall ties
  • Specified connection accessories
For pricing

Backup substrate, cavity/insulation depth, tie type, dimensions, finish, attachment detail and quantity.

Exact anchor system and compatibility are reviewed for the quotation; the general family does not establish access to every proprietary system.

Flashing & Drainage

Keep water-management components coordinated at wall bases, openings and other detailed transitions.

  • Through-wall flashing requirements
  • Weeps and vents
  • Cavity drainage requirements
  • Mortar-collection accessories by specification
For pricing

Flashing material and width, wall/cavity details, termination and lap requirements, weep type, lengths and quantities.

Confirm the complete specified product assembly and availability. Flashing, drainage and wall design must work together.

Joint & Surface Requirements

Identify adjacent joint and surface-treatment requirements without assuming they are included in the masonry package.

  • Control / expansion-joint details
  • Backer and sealant compatibility requirements
  • Specified cleaning and waterproofing scope
For pricing

Joint dimensions, substrates, specified materials, surface finish, exposure, quantities and compatibility documents.

Sealants, cleaners, waterproofing and exact joint products require separate product-access confirmation. List them for scope review; they are not a confirmed stocked product range.

02 / Material selection

Match the unit reference to the wall schedule.

The examples below use Kingston’s published block designations. They help identify the requested configuration; confirm nominal versus actual dimensions, strength, weight class and availability for each quoted item.

Catalog dimensions and product descriptions are identification references. Exact unit properties, strength documentation, appearance and project compatibility are confirmed before order release. Delivery timing is quoted for the project.

03 / Representative manufacturers

Kingston Block. Our current CMU platform.

Kingston Block manufactures concrete masonry units and is Crestview’s current public CMU platform. Unit configuration, strength, weight class and quantities are reviewed for the quotation. Manufacturer catalog listings do not establish Crestview inventory or guaranteed lead times.

04 / Buyer applications

Organize the package
around the project.

Masonry contractors, general contractors, developers, facility teams and public procurement buyers use wall plans and unit schedules to define a complete material request. Include site access and delivery sequencing alongside the product quantities.

Commercial wall packages

Organize unit counts by wall type, floor or construction phase. Coordinate openings, special shapes, mortar, grout and reinforcement using the same drawings and details.

Institutional & government work

Provide the unit specification, required product documentation and procurement requirements. Architectural appearance, strength and density requirements should be identified for each wall type.

Renovation & phased delivery

Include existing-unit measurements, appearance references, replacement quantities and site access. Identify pallet handling, staging space and required delivery phases before the material quotation.

05 / Procurement & coordination

Materials and
procurement requirements.

Crestview Industrial is the public brand of The Crestview Group LLC, an NYS-certified SDVOB and SBA-certified SDVOSB. For public and institutional purchasing, identify the applicable certification, solicitation and documentation requirements with your masonry takeoff and wall details.

Certification and product compliance are separate. Confirm required manufacturer documentation, country of origin and applicable procurement conditions for the quoted products.
