Abstract: An adjustable corner strip for joining adjacent concrete form panels into a column mold includes spaced diverging wings with slots to retain adjustment screws for adjusting the divergence of the wings, and thus the panels. The corner strip permits easy and rigid squaring of forms. A chamfer strip includes a chamfer face and an integrally formed tail section extending outwardly of the strip and adapted to fit into the channel formed along the mold side rail. The adjustable corner strips bring the chamfer strips into tight mating engagement with the interior surfaces of the mold panels, preventing leakage of cement between the chamfer strips and the mold panels.
Abstract: An installation for manufacturing reinforced concrete elements, in particular prestressed concrete slabs or pre-slabs, by means of a bench including a manufacturing area of predetermined shape, together with a molding apparatus. Memory means (46) are provided for storing building data relating to the elements to be manufactured and concerning at least the geometry thereof, together with tracing means (48) for marking on the manufacturing area (16) the locations of at least some of the walls placed thereon and constituting portions of the molding apparatus.
