ABSTRACT:
A multi-component modular system for use in fabricating wall structures of the type which may be fortified with concrete or other similar materials. The system includes a plurality of plastic prefabricated forms, each form comprising an elongated, generally rectangular member having a cavity defined by a pair of side panels and a pair of end panels. One end panel has a pair of outwardly-facing, L-shaped flanges, and the other end panel has a pair of L-shaped slots sized and shaped to mate with the L-shaped flanges. Two or more forms may be interconnected in an end-to-end fashion by inserting the L-shaped flanges of one form into the L-shaped slots of a second form. A plurality of openings are provided on the end panels of the forms to permit concrete to be distributed monolithically between adjacent forms. Each of the forms may be supported by a strut member which is mountable transversely between the pair of side panels of the form. The form cavity may also be partitioned into a concrete-receiving space and a plurality of insulation spaces by mounting a plurality of divider panels longitudinally within the cavity in the form and spaced apart from the side panels. Panels mateable with either the left end or the right end of a form may additionally be used to contain the flow of concrete out of the ends of a wall structure and/or to join together a pair of forms in an end-to-side relationship. Where no foundation for the wall structure exists, a U-shaped bracket may be used to mount the forms into the ground.
