ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for setting up a concrete form for the subsequent forming of a concrete member therein and for continuously supplying a concrete form with concrete. The apparatus for setting up the concrete form includes a deck brush for cleaning the deck portions of an elongated concrete form, stem brushes for cleaning the stem portions of the concrete form, nozzles for spraying pressurized lubrication fluid onto the form, strand pulling and placing devices for placing reinforcing strands in the stem portions of the concrete form, rams for depressing the strands down into the stem portions after tensioning thereof, and a deck reinforcing material dispensing system which simultaneously straightens and dispenses deck wire onto the deck portion of the concrete form. The pouring machine includes hoppers for supplying concrete through vibratory feeders, a first concrete spreader for spreading concrete in the form supplied by the hoppers, a concrete compactor for compacting the concrete spread by the concrete spreaders, and a second concrete spreader for providing a final surface finish to the concrete members being formed in the concrete form. Concrete form vibrators are provided on the pouring machine for continuously vibrating the concrete form through contact therewith as the pouring machine moves along the concrete form pouring concrete.
