Building block for tall buildings with recesses for inserting insulating material, and process for the manufacture and use of such a building block

Abstract

Abstract Recesses (1, 2) which run the whole length of the block are formed in it for the insertion of insulating slabs (4). To improve thermal insulation, particularly at the abutting faces of the blocks, the insulating slabs (4) are arranged in such a way that they can be removed and moved or displaced in the longitudinal direction of the block in the recesses (1, 2), which, for this purpose, are wider at the outside of the block than the insulating slabs (4) but hold the insulating slabs (4) firmly in the inside of the blocks. In production of the blocks, shaping in the vertically upright position is facilitated by the fact that, according to a preferred embodiment of the block, at least some of the faces (24) of the block which extend in the longitudinal direction are inclined to produce a taper of the cross-section of the block counter to the longitudinal direction. <IMAGE>
