ABSTRACT:
A tie for concrete forms includes an elongated strap with opposing first and second ends. The strap has an upwardly projecting intermediate portion which prevents the movement of form panels inwardly on one end of the strap. A notch in the first end of the strap receives a waler to hold form panel from moving outwardly along the strap. A fixed plate on the second end of the strap holds a form panel from moving outwardly along the strap. Beveled ends allow the strap to be forced through a polystyrene panel without the need for forming an aperture in the panel prior to insertion of the tie. A tubular spacer may be utilized on intermittent ties to prevent inward movement of the form panels. The spacer has a notch cut therein to allow concrete to flow within the spacer and around the tie.
