A tie rod of a formwork tie for connecting two formwork elements, which are disposed opposite and at a distance from one another, is provided with two opposing flattened regions, and a tie nut is provided with a radial fixing screw, which can optionally be screwed against one of the two flattened regions for securing the tie nut on the tie rod, whereby the distance between the two formwork elements can be set in steps of one half a lead of an external thread of the tie rod.

Systems and methods for modular walled systems, such as modular walled spas and modular walled privacy fences and can protect pool and spa equipment from the public. In one embodiment, the modular walled system includes an outer frame disposed within a medial frame, and an inner frame disposed within the medial frame, wherein each frame includes a set of brace assemblies that connect to rebar grids. The brace assemblies may include a foot plate and threaded couplers. The wall system also provides protective room for electrical raceways and a secure anchor substrate to attach electronics, panels, boxes or lighting systems.

Various implementations described herein are directed to a load bearing ledger fitting, a modular header beam, a perimeter safety deck, a multi-purpose bearing plate, and a mega-shore bearing plate of an integrated construction system.

A panel attachment structure including a panel assembly having a channel member including a channel therein. The panel assembly further includes at least one reinforcing member directly or indirectly coupled to the channel member, and an insert assembly including an insert portion. The insert portion is configured to be closely slidably received in the channel member in an insertion direction, and the insert assembly is configured to be coupled to an underlying support structure.

A spacer device (10) for formwork, comprising a hollow tubular body (2) extending around a longitudinal axis (X-X) is described, said tubular body (2) being configured to house a cross tie rod (7) and comprising: two side tubular portions (2a,2b); each side tubular portion (2a,2b) comprising fastening means at one end; and at the remaining end, a tapered portion (3a,3b) configured to rest on the wall of the formwork; characterised by comprising a ball joint (5a,5b) interposed between each tapered portion (3a,3b) and the respective side tubular portion (2a,2b) to couple each tapered portion (3a,3b) with the respective side tubular portion (2a,2b).

Various implementations described herein are directed to a load bearing ledger fitting, a modular header beam, a perimeter safety deck, a multi-purpose bearing plate, and a mega-shore bearing plate of an integrated construction system.

The invention relates to a wall formwork for the construction of walls with a formwork facing and elements which support the formwork facing, with several anchor holes which pass through supporting elements, with a sleeve made of plastic which is held in a force-fit and/or form-fit manner in an anchor hole, wherein the sleeve extends from one end of the anchor hole to the other end of the anchor hole, and wherein the outer face of the sleeve tightly abuts the inner face of the anchor hole at the side of the formwork facing, characterized in that each anchor hole comprises a sleeve. The invention further relates to a method for cleaning a wall formwork with the features according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that concrete is driven out of an anchor hole.

A concrete form includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall positioned in parallel and spaced relation to each other, where the first sidewall has a first passage extending therethrough, with a first insert received in the first passage of the first sidewall. The form also includes a first cross tie having opposed first and second ends, where the first sidewall is removably secured to the first end of the first cross tie and the second sidewall is secured to the second end of the first cross tie. A first fastener extends through the first passage and engages the first insert and the first end of the first cross tie to removably secure the first sidewall to the first cross tie. The second sidewall may be removably or non-removably secured to the first cross tie.

A device for preventing sound transmission through a spacer tube, an aperture or a duct (1) is realized by inserting a damping body (21) which can be cost-effectively mass-produced and can be inserted through the apertures in the wall (15) without any effort and with correspondingly low cost. This eliminates the need for laborious plugging with rock wool or liquid mortar.

A fastening system including a tool and at least one insert. The tool may include an input shaft having a hardness and an output shaft having the same hardness as the input shaft. The input shaft and the output shaft may be connected to each other and may define an internal tube along a longitudinal axis of the tool. A cylindrical insert may define a receiving tube that is configured to receive the output shaft.
