Building a 24X28 garage. Any reason that I have to use 8x8x16 concrete
block for the base (2 courses) instead of 4x8x16 block? Since I am
framing with 2x4, seems that using 4" block wouldn't be an issue? But
I am a novice.
Thanks.

btw, I am talking about 4" wide block that is 8" high and 16" long.

Sure - lay the 4" block so that it is 4" high and 8" wide - you'll just
use twice as many!

Harry K, you'll be happy to know that I talked to the building
inspector and told him I was going to use 8" block...
I would like to thank everyone for their posts. It's good to hear
consistent information.
