Concrete Forming System
A concrete forming system for reducing the time and labor required for the framing, pouring, and curing of concrete walls. The concrete forming system generally includes concrete forms including a first wall, a second wall opposing the first wall, and a pair of sidewalls. A cavity is formed between the walls; with an opening being fluidly connected to the cavity. A first vehicle is connected to the first wall and a second vehicle is connected to the second wall. Using the vehicles, the positioning and orientation of the walls may be adjusted. After the walls have been placed and oriented, the vehicles will hold the walls in place as concrete is poured into the cavity through the opening. The concrete is allowed to cure into a structure; after which the vehicles and walls may be moved to another location to repeat the process.
Formwork device
The present invention relates to a formwork device for a battery formwork for the production of structural elements, in particular prefabricated concrete elements, which comprises at least two partition walls and the formwork device comprises two formwork panels that are connected to one another, preferably in an articulated manner, in order to be transferred from an unfolded state to a folded state, where each formwork panel comprises a formwork front side for attaching formwork elements and a formwork rear side, and the formwork rear sides of the two formwork panels face each other in the folded state and the formwork device is intended to be positioned in the folded state between the partition wall. The present invention further relates to an arrangement consisting of a battery formwork and at least one formwork device according to the invention, where the formwork device is arranged suspended in the battery formwork.
Lift truck operated stacking formwork table system and a method of operation thereof
A formwork support system and a method for erecting a formwork support system are disclosed. The formwork system comprises at least one stackable truss frame, wherein the at least one stackable truss frame comprises a lifting means engagement adapted for allowing the at least one stackable truss frame to be lifted by a lifting means in use.

Concrete forming system and method of assembling
A concrete form assembly that includes a shaping assembly with a number of generally planar panels, and, a retaining assembly with a number of whaler clamp assemblies and a number of whaler cleat assemblies.
Formwork panel assembly with releasable connecting member and method of removing the formwork
This disclosure relates to a formwork panel assembly to mold upwardly extending building features such as columns or walls, that extend between adjacent floor slabs. In one aspect, the formwork panel assembly comprises at least two surface forming elements, and at least one connecting element adapted for removable location between the two surface forming elements, where adjacent edges of the surface forming elements abut against the connecting element so that the resulting formwork assembly forms a single, continuous casting surface, and wherein in use, the or each connecting element is separately releasable from the formwork assembly once a concrete surface has been formed.
FORMWORK SUPPORT
The present invention relates to a formwork support comprising a stackable formwork table, at least one stackable shore and a stackable height adjustment mechanism, wherein the at least one stackable shore comprising a plurality of truss frames arranged to define an opening to laterally receive another shore. The stackable components are capable of saving space and improving efficiency in the assembly and disassembly of the formwork support.
ADJUSTABLE MARGINAL WALL FOR FORM PANELS USED FOR CASTING CASTABLE MATERIAL AND METHOD OF CASTING CASTABLE MATERIAL
A form panel with a marginal wall for casting castable material, which has an edge to be positioned near an external surface and a fixed support for attachment to the form panel, fingers movably carried by the fixed support and movable relative to the edge of the form panel between an extracted and retracted position. The fingers extending beyond the edge of the form panel edge in their extracted position, the fingers having a load-bearing surface for retaining castable material slurry, and an actuation mechanism for moving the fingers between the positions. The fingers are movably carried by the fixed support such that at least some of the fingers are movable with respect to the others for forming a marginal barrier between the edge of the form panel and the external surface.
FORMWORK SYSTEMS AND RELATED METHODS
A formwork system includes (a) a wallform panel for forming a wall portion; and (b) at least one brace assembly including a pair of vertically spaced apart props pivotably connected to the wallform panel for pivoting of the brace assembly relative to the wallform panel between a storage position, in which the brace assembly lies adjacent the wallform panel, and a deployed position, in which the brace assembly projects from the wallform panel for anchoring the props to a ground surface through a common base plate connected to each prop.
Stay-in-Place Forms and Methods and Equipment for Installation Thereof
Stay-in-place forms and methods and equipment for installing thereof. A concrete form includes a vertical component and a horizontal component, the vertical component located substantially perpendicular to the horizontal component. Also, the form includes an interior surface, at least a portion of the interior surface providing a form for supporting uncured concrete; wherein the uncured concrete forms a concrete structural portion upon curing of the uncured concrete; and wherein the interior surface remains attached to the concrete structural portion after curing. The form may include inserts and compatible form attachments. Also, forms including recesses may be utilized to reduce the weight thereof. Lifting equipment and accessories may be utilized to lift the form from a form holder and set same in place. Forms contain the work area as soon as it is installed to minimize fall hazards and the time, costs, and downtime associated with installation of safety measures.
