Abstract: An attachment system for use with a concrete form for securing an object within concrete as it cures is described. The attachment system comprises a sacrificial securing element and a tie rod with a first end and a second end. The first end removably engages the sacrificial securing element. Together, the tie rod and the sacrificial securing element jointly secure the object to the inside face of the concrete form. Moreover, the attachment system secures an object by using a single form and can be used when adding siding or exterior designs. In another aspect, a method of securing an object within a concrete wall using a concrete form is described. The method includes the steps of positioning the object in contact with an inner face of the concrete form and positioning a sacrificial securing element proximate the object and amidst a channel. The method also includes pouring cement within the channel and curing the cement to form the concrete wall.
