A process and form for casting a concrete light pole base having a decorative upper portion with a configuration for mounting a light pole. The form includes a base having an opening in which a resilient insert is positioned. The insert has openings for holding threaded ends of mounting bolts and for positioning wiring conduits. Ends of the bolts extend from the insert into the mold cavity. Different inserts may be used to accommodate different light pole mounting specifications. A first form section for shaping a decorative upper portion of the light pole base is positioned on the base, and forms for shaping the cylindrical lower end of the light pole base are secured above the first form section.

A window frame insulation method for constructing a warm house of the present invention, provided in order to achieve the above objective, comprises: a placement preparation step (S10) for opening a portion of a wall body so as to insert a window frame before the wall body is formed, and forming a mold so as to form a stepped portion on the outer side of the wall body; a placement step (S20) for placing concrete so as to form the wall body within the mold; a preservation step (S30) for conservation of the concrete formed within the mold in order to prevent harmful effects; a window frame installment step (S40) for installing a window frame on the inner side of the opened wall body; an insulation material installment step (S50) for installing insulation material in the wall body except for the window frame; and a finishing material installment step (S60) for installing finishing material on the outer side of an outer insulation material.

The invention comprises a concrete form. The form comprises a first concrete forming panel having a first primary surface adapted for forming and contacting plastic concrete and a second primary surface opposite the first primary surface; a layer of insulating material contacting and substantially covering the second primary surface of the first concrete forming panel; and an insulating blanket adjacent the first concrete forming panel. A method of using the concrete form is also disclosed.

A conveyor mold system for slip forming a concrete barrier has a concrete paving machine having a main frame having machine legs and machine tracks, an auger system for receiving concrete, a barrier paving mold having a hopper for receiving concrete from the auger system, a conveyor assembly main frame having a front roller and a rear roller, and a belt having a pattern with the belt positioned on the front roller and the rear roller.

The present invention relates to a method for fabricating a composite construction element using a mould fabricated by a computer-controlled apparatus. The method comprises the steps of fabricating the mould having one or more receiving portions dimensioned to receive one or more respective objects responsive to computer instructions relating to the mould geometry, positioning the one or more objects in respective receiving portions, covering at least a portion of the mould and the one or more objects with settable material, and at least partially curing the settable material, thereby forming the composite construction element having the one or more objects embedded therein.

The invention relates to a sheet (10) for protecting a form-work surface, intended to surround a construction material. According to the invention, the sheet (10) comprises at least: a front layer, including at least one polymer material and provided to be in contact with the construction material so as to reduce wear and the formation of grooves on the framework surface and to limit adhesion of the construction material during removal of the formwork; and a rear adhesive layer, provided to be positioned against the formwork surface and rigidly connect the sheet (10) to the formwork surface before the construction material is introduced. The invention also relates to a formwork installation (1) equipped with at least one such sheet (10). The invention further relates to a method of producing and a method of using a sheet (10) of this type.

A system, comprising: at least one planar member having a two- or three-dimensional surface pattern formed thereon or therein; and a plurality of resilient spacers removably positionable on or in the surface pattern to form a surface relief pattern of spaced-apart recesses on the at least one planar member.
