ABSTRACT:
A nonbracing self-framing window buck frame or surround for forming a framed window opening in a cast concrete wall or the like. The buck frame or surround comprises a support frame made of channel members arranged end-to-end to form a substantially rectangular framework. A window frame is fit within the framework formed by the channel members, such that a peripheral mounting flange on the window frame abuts one side of the framework. A frame structure adapted to receive nails or other fasteners abuts the peripheral mounting flange of the window frame, and means are provided for securing the support frame and frame structure together, with the peripheral mounting flange on the window frame being held securely between the frame structure and the support frame. The buck frame or surround, including the self-contained window frame, is positioned between wall forms, and concrete is poured around the buck frame or surround. After the concrete has cured, the forms are removed. The buck frame or surround remains in the concrete wall, forming a self-framed window opening having a sturdy, finished exterior casing and an interior framing structure to which interior wallboard and other window sash and trim can be readily attached.
