Stacking concrete blocks is a surprisingly efficie...
If you build it on site won't you still have to haul in all of the materials to produce it which will weigh more than the final product?

The point is that they would be made locally, not "shipped anywhere". Every city has a bunch of local concrete plants for a reason. If I buy aggregate, it's coming from nearby; it's not being shipped across the country.

Not necessarily. concrete = cement + aggregate; the aggregate might be quarried on site.
