ARMOURED JOINT - ANTI-SKEW STAKE BRACKET
An armoured joint for protecting an edge of a first component formed of settable material and an edge of a second component formed of settable material at a joint, wherein the apparatus includes a first anchorage part for anchoring to the first component and a second anchorage part for anchoring to the second component, a first plate coupled to the first anchorage part, a second plate coupled to the second anchorage part, the first plate defining a first edge, the second plate defining a second edge, wherein the first edge and the second edge are shaped to facilitate bringing together of the first edge and the second edge, and wherein the second anchorage part is adapted to be movable relative to the first anchorage part from a close configuration in which the second edge is brought together with the first edge to a spaced configuration in which the second edge is spaced relative to the first edge, wherein the first anchorage part or the second anchorage part has a support section, the armoured joint including a bracket for supporting the armoured joint relative to a ground surface, the bracket comprising an angled upper leg and an angled lower leg, wherein the bracket is fixed to the support section by the angled upper leg and the angled lower leg, the angled upper leg being fixed to the support section to extend downwardly from the support section at a first angle and the angled lower leg being fixed to the support section to extend upwardly from the support section at a second angle of the same magnitude as the first angle.
JOINT FORMER APPARATUS
A joint former apparatus for forming a joint between concrete elements, the joint former apparatus including an upper wall and a lower wall below the upper wall, wherein the upper wall forms a wavelike configuration, the lower wall forms a wavelike configuration, and wherein the wavelike configuration of the lower wall is longitudinally offset relative to the wavelike configuration of the upper wall.
JOINT EDGE PROTECTION APPARATUS - FULLY BRIDGED WAVE PLATES
A joint edge protection apparatus for protecting an edge of a first component formed of settable material and an edge of a second component formed of settable material at a joint, wherein the apparatus includes a first anchorage part for anchoring within the first component and a second anchorage part for anchoring within the second component, a first plate coupled to the first anchorage part, a second plate coupled to the second anchorage part, the first plate defining a first abutment surface, the second plate defining a second abutment surface, wherein the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface are shaped to facilitate abutment of at least a portion of the second abutment surface against the first abutment surface, and wherein the second anchorage part is adapted to be movable relative to the first anchorage part from an abutting configuration in which at least a portion of the second abutment surface is in abutment with the first abutment surface to a spaced configuration in which the second abutment surface is spaced relative to the first abutment surface, wherein the first anchorage part defines a support surface to support the second plate as the second anchorage part is moved between the abutting configuration and the spaced configuration, and wherein, in the abutting configuration an interface between the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface is offset relative to an interface between the first anchorage part and the second anchorage part such that the interface of the first abutment surface and the second abutment surface is positioned above the support surface.
Edge protection system having support foot
An edge protection system for use with concrete flooring, including a first part for coupling to an edge portion of a first concrete flooring panel and a second part for coupling to an opposed edge portion of a second, neighbouring, concrete flooring panel, and a support foot for supporting the system relative to a ground surface, wherein the first part has a pair of vertically opposed longitudinal rails, and the support foot has an engagement formation which has an unlocked orientation for inserting the formation between the opposed rails to abut against the first part and a rotated, locked orientation wherein the formation is locked by the rails against lateral withdrawal from the first part.
JOINT EDGE ASSEMBLY AND FORMWORK FOR FORMING A JOINT, AND METHOD FOR FORMING A JOINT
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provides a joint edge assembly and a reusable multiple position height adjuster and method of positioning and installing joint edge assembly and the reusable multiple position height adjuster for forming two adjacent concrete slabs and a joint between such adjacent concrete slabs.
FORMWORK SYSTEM AND METHOD
A formwork system (100) includes a rebate board (105) having a generally L shaped profile in end view, the rebate board (105) having a first arm (110) and a second arm (120), the first and second arms (120) being angled at about 90 degrees relative to each other, the second arm (120) being securable to an upper portion of a formwork bottom board (200). The system (100) includes a brace (400) having a first engagement formation (410) configured to engage with the first arm (110), and a second engagement formation (435) configured to engage with a peg (220) or other fixed member.
Cement Form With Extension
A cement form assembly includes cement and a cement form. The cement form can include a ground facing surface extending horizontally on a ground support surface and a cement facing surface extending vertically and contacting the cement. An extension member extends outward from the cement form and includes a surface that extends the ground facing surface or the cement facing surface. The cement form and the extension member are each made, at least partially, of a foam material.
Stay-in-Place Forms and Methods and Equipment for Installation Thereof
Stay-in-place forms and methods and equipment for installing thereof. A concrete form includes a vertical component and a horizontal component, the vertical component located substantially perpendicular to the horizontal component. Also, the form includes an interior surface, at least a portion of the interior surface providing a form for supporting uncured concrete; wherein the uncured concrete forms a concrete structural portion upon curing of the uncured concrete; and wherein the interior surface remains attached to the concrete structural portion after curing. The form may include inserts and compatible form attachments. Also, forms including recesses may be utilized to reduce the weight thereof. Lifting equipment and accessories may be utilized to lift the form from a form holder and set same in place. Forms contain the work area as soon as it is installed to minimize fall hazards and the time, costs, and downtime associated with installation of safety measures.
