STABILIZING A CONCRETE FORM
A device for stabilizing a concrete form includes an anchoring member with a channel aligned along a first axis, and elongate members with cavities aligned along a second axis, the elongate members coupled to form a frame. The device may include an anchoring post for insertion through the channel of the anchoring member to secure the device to a surface, and sliders with elongate bodies for insertion into the cavities of the elongate members, where the sliders are affixed to an engagement member structurally configured for engaging the concrete form. First retaining members may be structurally configured to engage the anchoring post when inserted through the channel of the anchoring member thereby maintaining a position of the frame along the first axis. Second retaining members may be structurally configured to engage a slider when inserted into the elongate member thereby maintaining a position of the slider along the second axis.

Concrete forming system with scaffold
A concrete forming system combining the ease of erection and load carrying capabilities of scaffolding with a simplified erection system. Scaffold frames provide the vertical support and walers, supported by and spanning from scaffold frame to scaffold frame, provide the horizontal support. The wet concrete's hydrostatic pressure is placed on the walers, which transfer the load to the scaffold frames that act like trusses. The scaffold frames have at least two legs and are secured at their bottom to perform as a cantilever or, when the hydrostatic pressure is greater, they are secured at their bottoms and tops to perform as a truss fixed at both ends. As such, this forming system does not use form ties which results in an obstacle free form face and facilitates forms that simply hang from the walers.

FORMWORK SYSTEM AND METHOD
A formwork system (100) includes a rebate board (105) having a generally L shaped profile in end view, the rebate board (105) having a first arm (110) and a second arm (120), the first and second arms (120) being angled at about 90 degrees relative to each other, the second arm (120) being securable to an upper portion of a formwork bottom board (200). The system (100) includes a brace (400) having a first engagement formation (410) configured to engage with the first arm (110), and a second engagement formation (435) configured to engage with a peg (220) or other fixed member.

SHUTTERING ELEMENT AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING A CONCRETE STRUCTURE IN A CAVITY
The invention relates to a shuttering element and to a method for constructing a concrete structure in a cavity. The shuttering element according to the invention is intended for the construction of a vertical wall of a concrete structure intended to contain a liquid. The shuttering element (100) comprises a first shuttering panel (110) made of perforated sheet metal, a second shuttering panel (120) made of fiber cement, and a plurality of spacers (130). It is possible to use the shuttering element (100) reversibly in the construction method. The construction method allows the production of a one-piece reinforced concrete structure which is dimensionally stable and not likely to crack. Furthermore, it is readily possible to widen the upper leveling of the walls in order to support the curbstones without any risk of cracks and/or breakages. Furthermore, the structure is variable while being compatible with any finishing covering.
