Abstract
A translucent end cap which may be secured to an abutting side surface of a translucent block includes a pair of parallel top and bottom surfaces each having generally the same preselected shape. A side surface extends between the top and bottom surfaces and is perpendicular and joined to the top and bottom surfaces. The side surface has a contour generally conforming to the preselected shaped of the top and bottom surfaces. A raised rear surface portion extends from the side surface to form a protrusion. A portion of this protrusion is arranged to abut a portion of an abutting side surface of a translucent glass block to provide a mortar joint between the end capside surface and the abutting side surface of a translucent glass block. The end caps are secured to exposed top or side abutting surfaces of translucent blocks form a translucent block wall structure to provide a translucent block wall structure having usable top or side surfaces.
