Abstract: A concrete structure formed using an extender that connects to a web member at least partially disposed within a side panel. The extender may be used to extend the length of a connector that interconnects opposed side panels, used to provide additional surface area to which concrete can bond if, for example, forming a tilt-up wall, or used as a strapping location with a flexible linking member.

The abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §1.72(b).

Abstract: An insulated concrete structure including a side panel, a spaced-apart sheet such as plywood, and concrete disposed therebetween. The concrete is poured into a cavity formed between the side panel and the sheet and allowed to substantially cure, after which time the sheet can remain as part of the structure or be removed and used again in forming another concrete structure.

Abstract: An insulated concrete structure including a longitudinally-extending side panel and at least one web member connected to the side panel. The web member extends from adjacent the external side of the side panel through and out of the interior surface of the side panel. The side panel is coupled to fluid concrete and cured to be used as a tilt-up wall, floor, or roof panel. Alternatively, the concrete can be bonded to opposed side panels .

Abstract: A corner web member is disclosed that may be used for making corner structures in building form systems, such as systems used to construct concrete walls. When used for this purpose, the corner web member is preferably at least partially disposed within a side panel that forms a corner section of the form system used to construct walls. The present invention further includes methods of manufacturing the corner structures and methods of using the same to construct buildings. It is noted that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to ascertain quickly the subject matter of the technical disclosure. The abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 1.72(b).

Abstract: A panel connector is disclosed that is used to make a corner in a wall system and a method of installing that component. The panel connector defines two channels into which respective portions of two side panels are inserted, in which the side panels usually serve as forms or walls in forming concrete wall structures. The panel connectors form a corner between the two side panels so that those side panels having a predetermined angle therebetween.

Abstract: A concrete structure formed using a web member that includes a latching system to frictionally hold connectors or the like in position. The latching system preferably has less frictional resistance to attaching the connector than for removing the same connector. It is noted that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to ascertain quickly the subject matter of the technical disclosure.

Abstract: An insulated concrete form system including two longitudinally-extending side panels, each side panel having an exterior surface and an interior surface, wherein the interior surface of one side panel faces the interior surface of the other side panel and wherein the interior surfaces are laterally spaced apart from each other so that a cavity is formed therebetween, a longitudinally-extending wire re-bar disposed in the cavity formed between the side panels, and at least two connector members. The wire re-bar acts both as a bridging element between the two side panels and as the horizontal structural reinforcement of the concrete (or similar material) placed into the cavity between the side panels. A portion of each connector member is integrally formed within a portion of one side panel so that one connector member is formed within a portion of each of the side panels.
