The present invention relates to a self-pouring mold system which ensures uniformity of a material by laterally pouring concrete into a mold installed on a side of a wall structure and minimizing a fall head generated when the concrete is poured to prevent bleeding, thereby ensuring uniformity of a fire-proofing material and adjusting a required fire-proofing coating thickness, and a method of fire-proofing, repairing, and reinforcing using the same.

Various implementations described herein are directed to a bracket of a formwork system. In one implementation, the bracket includes: a first member having a first plurality of openings; and a second member having a second plurality of openings. The first member and the second member are configured to: be perpendicular to each other; and provide lateral adjustment via the first plurality of openings and/or the second plurality of openings.

Various implementations described herein are directed to a formwork system. In one implementation, the formwork system includes aluminum extrusions and aluminum castings. The aluminum castings and the aluminum extrusions can be assembled by being pressed and riveted together.

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.

A universally adaptable waffle-cavity form and methods for constructing a waffle panel are described. The waffle-cavity form is provided with a standard shape and size and can be easily adapted to alter the dimensions thereof. The form can be cut down and combined with one or more other cut down forms to provide a combined form with desired dimensions. The forms can also be combined without first being cut down through the use of a saddle that is placed over a joint therebetween. A plurality of the forms can be affixed to a mold decking in a desired arrangement using anchors installed therebetween to form a mold that is reusable to produce multiple waffle panels.

A form tie system for efficiently and securely tying together panels of a wall form with an elongated member. The form tie system generally includes a first holder which is adapted to be positioned adjacent to a first panel and a second holder which is adapted to be positioned adjacent to a second panel of a wall form. Each holder includes a grip such as a strand chuck which is adapted to securely retain an elongated member that extends from the first holder to the second holder to tie the panels of the wall form together. One of the holders may comprise an adjustable holder including an adjustable nut utilized to bear against the strand chuck to increase tension in the elongated member. After formation of the wall, the elongated member may be cut and the holders released prior to removing the wall forms from around the completed wall.

A bulkhead assembly for use with a concrete form and a first reinforcement bar is disclosed. The concrete form may have first and second spaced form sides; and the first reinforcement bar may be disposed between and may extend longitudinally of the spaced form sides. The bulkhead assembly may have a first pair of channel assemblies, each including a channel member and an elastomeric member. The elastomeric member may be positioned longitudinally in the channel member, with a portion of the elastomeric member extending outward transversely from the channel member. The portion may include an outer end that extends longitudinally of the channel member. The channel assemblies may be positioned on opposite sides of the reinforcement bar, with the elastomeric member outer ends facing one another and contacting the reinforcement bar, thereby inhibiting uncured concrete from passing between the channel assemblies when uncured concrete is poured into the concrete form.
