A thermal wall system may include a plurality of blocks configured to interconnect with each other forming a monolithic wall. The plurality of blocks form a series of vertical interior cavities that each extend from a top of the plurality of blocks to a bottom of the plurality of blocks, and tubing vertically extends through the series of vertical interior cavities.

The present disclosure relates to components and methods for a modular building system, used as mid-rise residential and office building, to pre-fabricate and assemble the system quickly, easily and simply. More particularly, it relates to a building temporal self-supporting panel system invention that includes formwork, structural rebars and insulated panels for the purpose of wall, floor and roof. The panel system is composed of a number of layers and a temporal-structural frame, integrating all constructive elements needed: temporal structural capacity, thermal and acoustical insulation, impermeability and pre-installations; designed considering operation, function, fabrication and assembling.

Formwork for constructing a floor system in a building, the formwork comprising: a plurality of pre-cast concrete joists positioned in a generally parallel arrangement, wherein one or more of the joists comprises: a horizontal base portion; and an upwardly directed portion extending substantially along the length of the joist, the upwardly directed portion having spaced apart surfaces extending upwardly from the base wherein respective shelf portions of the base are located adjacent said upwardly directed portion; a plurality of pre-cast concrete members for extending along a length of the joists for receiving wet concrete; and a supporting arrangement to support opposite ends each of the pre-cast concrete members upon oppositely arranged shelf portions of two adjacent joists.

Formwork for building a wall system, the formwork comprising: a first pre-cast concrete wall panel and a second pre-cast concrete wall panel, the first wall panel being adapted for being positioned in a spaced relationship with the second wall panel; a hollow core defined by oppositely arranged surfaces of the first and second wall panels, the core being adapted for receiving wet concrete; and a connecting arrangement for inter-connecting the first wall panel with the second wall panel in the spaced relationship, the connecting arrangement extending generally in an outwardly direction relative to said oppositely arranged surfaces of the first and second wall panels.

A module, system and method for the utilization of wall modules molds which may be enjoined in various combinations, filled in situ with concrete, cement or similar aggregates aggregate and linked so that said when solidified, said concrete, cement or similar aggregates aggregate combines with said molds to form a continuous structural wall that may be used in the construction of dwellings and other such buildings.

A metal skeleton for the reinforcement of a vertically elongated concrete structure has a first plurality of leg members each having top and bottom ends and inner and outer side edges together defining a leg body portion. A first plurality of rib plate engagement slots are formed in at least one of the inner side edge and the outer side edge. Each of the leg members is formed from a flat sheet of metal material. A first plurality of rib plates each define a generally planar central body portion and each have a first plurality of leg-engagement slots projecting into the central body portion. The leg-engagement slots are dimensioned and adapted to frictionally engage with respective ones of the rib plate engagement slots. The first plurality of leg-engagement slots slidingly interfit within respective ones of the first plurality of rib-engagement slots to securely connect the rib plates to the leg members to form the metal skeleton.

Provided are a highly durable textile reinforcing panel used as a concrete form and a method for constructing a reinforced concrete structure using the same. The highly durable textile reinforcing panel is configured to resist a lateral pressure caused due to a self-load of concrete which is not cured during construction and function as a structure reinforcing material by being integrated with concrete cured after the construction, is integrated with the concrete structure via a textile shear connector formed on a highly durable concrete panel, and allows a lattice-shaped reinforcing material to remarkably increase flexural strength of the highly durable concrete panel, and thus a flexural strength of the entire concrete structure is remarkably increased when the highly durable textile reinforcing panel used as a concrete form is structurally integrated with the concrete structure.

A permanent form member for a composite construction member comprises an elongated body having an outer wall defining a concrete retaining channel therethrough, and a bracing member extending from the outer wall into the concrete retaining channel. The bracing member comprises ribs fixed to the outer wall at diametrically opposed positions thereon. For use as a beam form the outer wall of the elongated member is open along its entire length such that concrete retaining channel is substantially U-shaped. A method of constructing a composite concrete house frame is provided wherein form members are connected to a foundation wall and filled with concrete to form composite columns. Form members for beams are connected to the composite columns and interconnected to one another and filled with concrete to form a composite lintel supported on the plurality of composite columns.
