The preparation of the base course is the most critical stage of building with the Comfort Block System.

Before beginning construction, all coursing requirements should be considered. Comfort Block units should be used as the base course blocks. When laying the first course, standard mortar may be used to overcome any excessive variation in foundation levels. This should be used between the foundation and the first course of Comfort Block units.

Block layers must ensure that the base course is level horizontally along the length and width of each block and that there are no steps between each block. Once the block layers have the base course leveled, the highly engineered blocks combined with good craftsmanship will ensure that the walls are plumb and maintain a consistently even height.

Before construction of the Comfort Block wall, ensure that all wall dimensions conform to the block dimensions to reduce gapping and cutting.

All steel reinforcement should be located according to engineering recommendations before the base course is constructed.
