A sealing structure for the bottom of a beam space between precast panels, comprising: a first precast panel and a second precast panel substantially aligned to each other along a single plane and spaced from each other by a space, each of the first precast panel and the second precast panel defining an inner edge adjacent to the space; a soft pad abutting the space for sealing a bottom of the space; a plate abutting the soft pad; a fastening device securing a first side of the plate and a second side of the plate to the first precast panel and second precast panel, respectively, so as to assist the soft pad in the sealing of the bottom of the beam space; wherein the fastening device does not contact the soft pad.

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.

Various implementations described herein are directed to a modular post of an integrated construction system. In one implementation, the modular post includes a longitudinal extruded post having a first end and a second end. Each end of the longitudinal extruded post is configured to receive a post end component. The longitudinal extruded post includes a plurality of grooves cut into the longitudinal extruded post at predetermined locations along the post.

A tool for removing, from a set concrete wall, a concrete form of a type having a discontinuous structure is provided. The tool comprises a lever arm, comprising an engagement portion and a grasping portion. The engagement portion is positioned near one end of the lever arm, and the grasping portion is positioned near an opposite end of the lever arm. An engagement member is secured to the engagement portion. The engagement member is configured to engage the discontinuous structure. A pivoting member is mounted on the lever arm proximate the engagement portion. The pivoting member defines a pivot point around which the lever arm may rotate, whereby the engagement member will apply force to the discontinuous structure tending to pull the concrete form away from the set concrete wall when the engagement portion of the lever arm is pulled away from the set concrete wall when the engagement member is in engagement with the discontinuous structure.

Disclosed is a wood gang form including: a placing plate made with wood; a frame joined to the edge of one side of the placing plate; and a plurality of joist members which are arranged on one side of the placing plate at a predetermined interval from each other, are joined to one of the placing plate and the frame to reinforce the placing plate or the frame.

A tie system and method for forming a wall from a hardenable building material over a footing. The tie system includes multiple wall ties configured to be directly interconnected to form a wall tie stack such that multiple wall tie stacks can be positioned over the footing in a spaced apart, vertically extending arrangement. Each wall tie includes first and second planar surfaces to be directly fastened to respective first and second panel structures. In one embodiment, the tie system includes tabs for supporting multiple insulation panels positioned between the vertically extending tie stacks and between the first and second panel structures.

The present invention is directed to a flexible concrete form system having both flexible and rigid parts that are easily assembled and disassembled using a multi-contact point connection system. The concrete form system can be extended or stacked in a wide variety of configurations to accommodate almost any desired concrete shape.

In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a concrete form can include a forming wall including a concrete contact side and a bracing side and a plurality of braces movably connected to the bracing side of the forming wall, wherein the plurality of braces move between a retracted position and a bracing position.

The invention comprises a concrete form. The concrete form comprises a first panel having a first primary surface for contacting plastic concrete and a second primary surface opposite the first surface; and a second panel having a first primary surface and a second primary surface opposite the first surface, the second panel being attached to the first panel so that the first primary surface of the second panel is adjacent the second primary surface of the first panel. The concrete form also comprises a layer of radiant heat reflective material and a layer of insulating material disposed between and covering the second primary surface of the first panel and first primary surface of the second panel. A method of using the concrete form is also disclosed.
