Pre-stressed insulated concrete panels are disclosed. Methods of making and using pre-stressed insulated concrete panels are also disclosed.

A device for stabilizing a concrete form includes an anchoring member with a channel aligned along a first axis, and elongate members with cavities aligned along a second axis, the elongate members coupled to form a frame. The device may include an anchoring post for insertion through the channel of the anchoring member to secure the device to a surface, and sliders with elongate bodies for insertion into the cavities of the elongate members, where the sliders are affixed to an engagement member structurally configured for engaging the concrete form. First retaining members may be structurally configured to engage the anchoring post when inserted through the channel of the anchoring member thereby maintaining a position of the frame along the first axis. Second retaining members may be structurally configured to engage a slider when inserted into the elongate member thereby maintaining a position of the slider along the second axis.

A bulkhead system for a concrete casting bed includes a pair of base track members spaced apart from one another along a longitudinal direction and a pair of form walls each removably attached to one of the base track members. Each of the form walls has a lower end abutting one of the base track members and an upper end opposite the lower end in a vertical direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. Each of the form walls has a tendon slot extending into the form wall in the vertical direction from at least one of the upper end and the lower end. The tendon slot receives a tendon extending in the longitudinal direction.

In a method for producing a plurality of concrete cast elements of prestressed concrete, in particular for producing of railway sleepers, in a long bed which is a multiple of the length of a concrete cast element, in which separating elements are installed in the long bed to define the length of each of the concrete cast elements to be casted, a first and a second separating element for defining the length of a concrete cast element together with a tensioning device with tensioning elements for tensioning the concrete cast element between the two separating elements are mounted in the long bed, whereupon the concrete cast element is cast between the two separating elements and is at least partially hardened in the long bed.
