Abstract: A tool for concrete construction has a base provided with downwardly open channel for receiving an expansion joint with movement of tool effecting straightening of expansion joint. Generally upwardly directed flanges are structured to be cooperating with a straight edge for facilitating straight movement of tool during straightening of expansion joint. The tool may also be employed to establish control joints. Related methods are provided.

Abstract: A form assembly for cement or the like comprising interlocking form members. One form member is longitudinally straight and can be provided with horizontal stiffening ribs at its upper and lower edges. The other form member has upper and lower ledges at least one end and is resiliently flexible to permit bending into a longitudinally curved configuration. The ends of the form members are each cut away into complementary shapes to form an interlocking joint. The upper and lower horizontal ribs are provided with a first set of vertically aligned openings in the vicinity of the cut away joint and the upper and lower ledges are provided with a second set of vertically aligned openings in the vicinity of the cut away joint. The ribs and the ledges overlap each other so that the first and second set of aligned openings are in vertical alignment with each other when the cut away joints are interlocked, allowing a pin to be received by the aligned openings to fix the assembly into the ground.
