Embodiment Construction

[0035]As can be seen from the Figures, a clip assembly 20 for joining two or more substantially planar structures or wall panels is provided. While “wall” is used for purposes of discuss herein, the system and assembly may be applied to walls, floors, ceilings, or other supporting structures. Likewise, while “panel” and “planar structure” are used herein, any board or like structure may be substituted in place of same.

[0036]Specifically, a clip assembly 20 for joining two or more panels 22, 24 in a spaced apart manner is disclosed. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the clip assembly 20 includes a first clip bracket 26, or member, that has a first side 28 for attaching to a panel 22 or 24 and a second side 30 opposite the first side. A second clip member 28 is also provided. The second clip member 28 or bracket, has a first side 34 for attachment to a second panel 24 and a second side 36 opposite the first side. The second clip member 28 is engageable with the first clip member 26. In a pref...

Abstract

A load bearing wall formwork system and method are disclosed. The load bearing wall formwork system comprises a unique clip assembly for joining two or more substantially planar structures, such as a wall panel, in a spaced apart manner and providing a space there between for placement of a flowable material. The clip assembly comprises a first clip member having a first side for attachment to the wall panel, a second side and an opening positioned between the first and second sides, as well as a second clip member, engageable with the first clip member, having a first side for attachment to a second wall panel, a second side and an opening positioned between the first and second sides. The openings provided in the first and second clip members are aligned when the clip members are engaged. A connecting member is insertable into the aligned openings of the first and second clip members, connecting the first and second clip members together. A wall formed by the foregoing components and a method of assembling a wall formwork are also disclosed.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 826,823, filed on Sep. 20, 2006, entitled “Load Bearing Wall Formwork System and Method” by Ronald Jean Degen, Fausto Bejarano Castillo, Pablo Rodriguez Acosta and Humberto Trimino Vasquez, the contents of which are incorporated in by reference.FIELD OF INVENTION[0002]This invention relates to concrete forming structures and bearing walls, ceilings and floors.BACKGROUND[0003]Concrete and wall forming systems are known. Such systems typically include form members secured in place a distance apart, between which concrete or cement is placed. For instance, in a concrete forming system, a first form member is secured in position and a second form member is secured in position a distance from the first form member. As a result, a space exists between the form members. Within this space, concrete or cement is placed in a partially fluid form. Once the concret...
