Description

Three-quarter length CMU blocks, also known as three-quarter blocks, are concrete masonry units that are three-quarters the length of a standard CMU block. Three-quarter blocks are used to create a variety of decorative and architectural features on concrete masonry walls. They can be used to create patterns, designs, and openings. Three-quarter blocks can also be used to finish rows of alternating blocks, which creates a visual interest and can help to break up the monotony of a solid wall.
