Concrete corner structure with diagonally oriented fiber resin polymer rebar
11313126 · 2022-04-26 · ·

A concrete corner structure with diagonally oriented fiber resin polymer rebar and method that utilizes straight rebar to reinforce the corner structure. The straight rebar intersects with the horizontally disposed rebar in the first and second walls that form the corner structure. The straight rebar is placed at a 45-degree angle with respect to the two walls and tied to the horizontally disposed rebar. This allows for the use of straight rebar to reinforce the corner structure as opposed to a curved rebar.

Insulated concrete form construction method and system
11761204 · 2023-09-19 · ·

A system and method for constructing an insulated concrete form (ICF) wall are provided. Vertically-oriented pairs of ICF foam panels of an ICF structure are erected above a footing, with vertical panel supports located along opposed vertical edges of each set of adjacent vertically-oriented panel pairs. An internal brace support, extending longitudinally along the structure, is installed between the individual panels of the panel pairs. Concrete is poured between the erected vertically-oriented ICF foam panels to complete the ICF wall.

Mold-in-place concrete formwork

A plastic formwork is disclosed, and comprises a slurry-receiving structure, wherein the slurry-receiving structure defines an aperture and a formwork-defined internal space, wherein a slurry is receivable within the formwork-defined internal space. The formwork further comprises a formwork-defined first connection system counterpart and a formwork-defined second connection system counterpart, each of which includes a sealed interface-effecting portion that is supported by a substrate portion. The material of the sealed interface-effecting portion is softer than the material of the substrate portion. The formwork is connectible to another formwork via interlocking engagement with effect that an obtained aperture and an obtained internal space are obtained, wherein a slurry is receivable within the obtained internal space. The interlocking engagement is with effect that sealing engagement is effected between the sealed interface-effecting portions of the formwork and the another formwork such that sealed interfaces are obtained between the formwork and the another formwork.
