    Filling Cores of Concrete Block on the Front Course?

    Hello, Just in need of some advice on whether you fill the single course of blocks that sit on top of the angle iron? Can I just leave them hollow?
    Thanks.

      It depends on your finish. I used tile so I had to fill them in order to have something the thin set could adhere to.
