ABSTRACT:
A modular concrete-block form which is shaped in a rectangular configuraiton and has a pair of oppositely disposed side panel members and end enclosure panels to define a body cavity to receive poured concrete therein. The side panels are held in a fixed parallel relation to each other and are further prevented from side-to-side movement relative to each other by a plurality of strut members which are fixedly mounted transversley from one side panel to the other. The unique arrangement of the strut members contributes to a very stable block framework. Each strut member is formed with substantially "H"-shaped tenon members that are slidably engaged with spaced-apart, "T"-shaped slots formed in the inner surfaces of said side panels. The panel structure is firmly grasped within the pair of opposed stud members that define the tenons. The tenons are integrally connected together by means of truss members that further define passages therethrough for flow of wet concrete therebetween.
