CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not Applicable STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not Applicable THE NAMES OF THE PARTIES TO A JOINT RESEARCH AGREEMENT [0003] Not Applicable INCORPORATION-BY-REFERENCE OF MATERIAL SUBMITTED ON A COMPACT DISC OR REFERENCE TO A "MICROFICHE APPENDIX" [0004] Not Applicable BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0005] 1. Field of the Invention [0006] The present invention relates to construction materials and in particular to a system of interlocking modular blocks for stronger structures with built-in passageways for utility conduits and wiring to be used in constructing entire structures. [0007] 2. Description of Related Art [0008] Several attempts have been made in the past to reduce ever increasing construction labor costs. Laying blocks constitute a big portion of the direct labor cost. The need for a sturdy structure limits the economic steps that may be taken to reduce cost. The previous construction block systems could not route wires or conduits up and or around corners. [0009] It is worthwhile noting the approach take by Ernest A. Rabassa U.S. Pat. No. 4,314,431 was close to a workable solution but his design lacked a method for routing wires and conduits around and up corners and the "column interlocking block and corner interlocking block" in this patent would have been difficult to cast or mold. The present invention addresses short comings of the original column blocks and corner blocks of the "block interlocking blocks" of U.S. Pat. No. 4,314,431. [0010] Other patents for interlocking building blocks provide for a number of more or less complicated features that fail to solve the problem of building a sturdy and economical wall structure. Refer to U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,314,431; 2,392,551; 2,291,712; 2,544,983 and 1,430,431. None of these patents suggest the novel features of the present invention. [0011] The present application provides an improvement over in part over patents in several countries in Central and South America, namely: [0012] (a) El Salvador, No. 128, Book 15, Nov. 22, 1977. [0013] (b) Dominican Republic, No. 1105, Jun. 11, 1964 [0014] (c) Venezuela, No. 2199, Nov. 21, 1975. [0015] (d) Ecuador, No. 5, May 17, 1976 [0016] (e) Honduras, No. 2.172, Nov. 29, 1976. [0017] (1) Panama, No. 32123, Apr. 14, 1975. [0018] (g) Nicaragua, No. 2163521, Feb. 28, 1975. [0019] What is needed is a system comprising new interlocking block types with built-in passageways for utility conduits and wiring and a new method of fabricating structures using the blocks that will interlock-and cooperate with each other forming stronger wall structures with minimum labor. BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0020] An object of the present invention is to provide a system comprising three new interlocking building blocks to greatly strengthen corners where more then two walls intersect. [0021] Another object of the present invention is to provide a system comprising six different block types with built-in passageways for utility conduits and wiring and a new method of fabricating structures using the blocks that will interlock and cooperate with each other forming stronger wall structures with minimum labor. [0022] It is another object of the present invention to provide a column block, corner column blocks and T column blocks with an opening on the top of the blocks to route electrical wiring and conduits to the standard block above by chiseling a two inch opening on the bottom of the longitudinal horizontal opening of a Standard Block. [0023] The invention also comprises such other objects, advantages and capabilities as will later more fully appear and which are inherently possessed by the invention. [0024] In brief, a system of interlocking modular blocks are structured to be interlocked to form various structural features having great strength and ease of fabrication qualities with built-in passageways for conduits, wiring, cement and reinforcing bars.
