Composite conduit formwork structure and method of fabrication
The disclosure presents a composite conduit formwork structure which includes a cylindrical outer casing adapted to bond with a cylindrical inner casing which are maintained at a fixed distance apart by a plurality of radial stanchions. The inner casing and outer casing form an interior void which is filled with concrete during manufacture. The outer casing and inner casing remain in place to protect the structure once completed. A novel method of assembly is also provided whereby radial stanchions are rotated between the outer casing and inner casing. All of the components in a preferred embodiment are formed of a fiberglass material.
Formwork brace
In summary the invention described herein is broadly directed to a module for forming a reinforced concrete structure comprising (a) a formwork member that defines a cavity, (b) a reinforcement structure in the cavity, and (c) at least one formwork brace interconnecting the formwork member and the reinforcement structure.

Adjustable form for concrete construction
An adjustable form for installing across an opening at an edge of a concrete slab includes a form member having a first form portion and a second form portion slidably connected to reach an adjustable effective length of the form member. The adjustable form further includes an extension mechanism connected between the first and second form portions and is operable to vary the effective length of the form member to fit across the opening. Tension exerted between the first and second form portions at the effective length is sufficient to keep the adjustable form in place.
Isolation pocket form and method for making crack resistant concrete slabs
A pocket isolator form, for placement around a footer before a concrete slab is poured, is formed from plural barrier sections. At least some of the sections are curved, so that a sharp re-entrant corned is not formed in the concrete slab. The curved sections may be assembled with straight sections to form barriers of various form shapes which avoid the creation of sharp re-entrant corners in the slab.

Compensating ceiling formwork element for building around an obstacle
A formwork element of a ceiling formwork. The formwork element has a non-fully circumferentially closed, in particular U-shaped, frame onto which a formwork skin can be or is arranged. The frame preferably has at least a first leg, a second leg and a base strut in between. The base strut is preferably oriented at a right angle ±5° relative to the two legs. The legs are preferably each provided at their end regions opposite to the base strut with a fastening projection and/or a fastening recess. The formwork element can be suspended by a worker from below into a pillar head and is upwardly pivotable. It makes it possible to build around an obstacle in a simple manner while maintaining a grid-like imprint structure in the concrete surface to be created with the ceiling formwork.
