It is our purpose to show that the constructible orthomodular lattices defined by Janowitz in [2], are embeddable into Boolean lattices. In fact they are subdirect products of Boolean lattices, where the subdirect products are taken in the class of orthomodular posets. We shall make these notions precise. Other concepts, such as disjoint sum and constructible lattice, are defined in [1] and [2].
