Abstract
A wall forming system and method having a parallel form panels secured together by an adjustable support structure to form a cavity therebetween. The cavity being filled with hardenable material. The support structure having an elongated threaded member with a adjustable frame mounted upon the threaded member along either side of the parallel form panels. Mounts are placed upon the threaded member and rotated to hold the frame in position against the form panels. Rotation of the mounts can serve to impart a curvature to the forming system.
Claims5
A method for forming a cast for molding hardenable material, comprising the steps of:
- providing a first panel;
- providing a second panel opposing said first panel to bound a cavity for receiving hardenable material;
- providing an adjustable support structure comprising:
- a first element engagable with said at least one of said panels,
- a second element opposing said first element,
- an elongate threaded member having a first end mounted with said first element and a second end mounted for adjustment with said second element, and
- first and second mounts threadably carried by said elongate threaded member on either side of said second element;
- mounting said adjustable support structure with at least one of said panels;
- and
- rotating at least one of said first and second mounts to impart a contour to said at least one of said panels.
