Abstract: A residential or light industrial cast-in-place building foundation system including a form insert made of polymer foam, wood or plastic meant to stand upright within a typical removable concrete form side by side with poured concrete. Once assembled for use, a series of channels and voids are formed on one side of the normally flat removable forms. Each channel is designed to flare toward the outside of the concrete form to transfer energy and pressure through the concrete to be placed within the forms. After the concrete cures and the form panels will be removed, the form insert can be left in place for thermal efficiency or remove and reused on another project.
