Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of concrete formwork processing technology, specifically a method for reinforcing fair-faced concrete formwork. Background Technology

[0002] Fair-faced concrete formwork is an expression of architectural modernism. Due to its highly decorative effect, it is also called decorative concrete. The basic idea is to leave the concrete unpainted, without any additional coatings, tiles, or stone cladding after pouring, showcasing the raw, unadorned nature of the concrete. Currently, a common technical drawback in fair-faced concrete construction is that although steel columns can be installed internally for reinforcement and support, the typically flat thickness of the formwork results in insufficient stability and support strength. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for reinforcing fair-faced concrete formwork to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] The technical solution of this invention is: a method for reinforcing fair-faced concrete formwork, the method comprising the following steps:

[0005] Based on the construction drawings, determine the size of the fair-faced concrete formwork and the corrected formwork;

[0006] The fair-faced concrete formwork is then poured;

[0007] The correction template is used to correct the formwork of the poured fair-faced concrete.

[0008] Furthermore, the length and width of the correction template are both equal to or greater than the length and width of the fair-faced concrete template.

[0009] Furthermore, the pouring of the aforementioned fair-faced concrete formwork is carried out as follows:

[0010] Based on the size of the fair-faced concrete formwork, the solid steel columns are processed and numbered;

[0011] Multiple through holes are opened on the surface of the processed solid steel column;

[0012] The through hole and the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete template are connected by a thin screw.

[0013] The solid steel columns are assembled after processing by numbering them.

[0014] The assembled solid steel column is placed inside the fair-faced concrete formwork, and the fair-faced concrete formwork is then poured.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the through hole is greater than 20 mm.

[0016] Furthermore, the distance between the end of the solid steel column and the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork shall not be less than 150mm.

[0017] Furthermore, the end of the thin screw is located inside the through hole, and the end of the solid steel column is connected to the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork by the thin screw.

[0018] Furthermore, multiple reinforcing bars are welded to the inner curved surface of the solid steel column.

[0019] Furthermore, the calibration template includes multiple calibration frames, and adjacent calibration frames are connected by threads.

[0020] Furthermore, the formwork for the poured fair-faced concrete is corrected as follows:

[0021] Place the poured fair-faced concrete formwork inside the correction formwork;

[0022] Based on the size of the poured fair-faced concrete formwork and the internal size of the corrected formwork, the poured fair-faced concrete formwork is modified.

[0023] This invention provides an improved method for reinforcing fair-faced concrete formwork, which has the following improvements and advantages compared with the prior art:

[0024] Firstly, the reinforcement construction method of the present invention involves opening a through hole and installing a thin screw rod inside the through hole. At the same time, the end of the solid steel column and the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork are connected by the thin screw rod. This ensures that the concrete can flow into the through hole when the fair-faced concrete formwork is poured, thereby making the connection between the solid steel column, the concrete, and the fair-faced concrete formwork more reliable. It also strengthens the fair-faced concrete formwork as a whole and improves the construction stability of the fair-faced concrete formwork.

[0025] Secondly, this invention corrects the fair-faced concrete formwork after it has been poured and cut by using a correction template. This can reduce the occurrence of misaligned joints during actual operation. At the same time, the correction process can improve the accuracy of the shape and size processing of the fair-faced concrete formwork, thereby improving the processing effect of the fair-faced concrete formwork. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0027] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the construction method for reinforcing fair-faced concrete formwork according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] It should be noted that in the description of this invention, the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0030] Furthermore, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various components shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn to actual scale; for example, the thickness or width of some layers may be exaggerated relative to other layers.

[0031] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined or described in one figure, it will not need to be discussed or described in detail in the description of the subsequent figures.

[0032] refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides a method for reinforcing fair-faced concrete formwork, which includes the following steps:

[0033] Step S1: Determine the size of the fair-faced concrete formwork and its alignment according to the construction drawings. Specifically, based on the construction drawings of the building to be constructed, determine the width and length of the fair-faced concrete formwork, and then cut it according to these dimensions to obtain the appropriate formwork for the building. It is important to note that during the cutting process, the continuity of the cutting should be ensured to avoid multiple cuts that could result in uneven edges. In this embodiment, an electric cutting machine is preferably used for the cutting of the fair-faced concrete formwork.

[0034] Furthermore, during the verification process of the calibration template, the length and width of the calibration template are both equal to or greater than the length and width of the fair-faced concrete template. In this embodiment, the length and width of the calibration template are both 10mm greater than the length and width of the fair-faced concrete template.

[0035] Step S2: Based on the length and width of the fair-faced concrete formwork confirmed in Step S1, pour the fair-faced concrete. Details are as follows:

[0036] Step S2.1: Based on the length and width of the fair-faced concrete formwork confirmed in Step S1, cut out solid steel columns of corresponding lengths. Simultaneously, bend the cut solid steel columns at the same angle according to the bending angle of the fair-faced concrete formwork. Specifically, in this embodiment, solid steel columns are used as the backing material, and these solid steel columns are made of carbon steel. Solid square carbon steel is not only lower in cost but also still possesses high supporting strength, thereby reducing the production cost of the fair-faced concrete formwork in this embodiment to a certain extent.

[0037] It is worth noting that the solid steel columns are cut and bent in one go. After bending the solid steel columns, multiple reinforcing bars can be welded onto the inner curved surface of the solid steel columns to enhance the stability of the fair-faced concrete formwork.

[0038] Furthermore, the solid steel columns after cutting and bending are assigned corresponding numbers, such as H1, H2, H3 for horizontal members, L1, L2, L3 for vertical members, and W1, W2, W3 for bent members. These numbers facilitate the placement of the solid steel columns into the cut fair-faced concrete formwork.

[0039] Step S2.2: Multiple through holes are drilled on the surface of the processed solid steel column. The inner diameter of each through hole is greater than 20mm, and the shape of the through holes is not fixed; they can be circular, square, etc. It is worth noting that setting the inner diameter of the through holes to be greater than 20mm not only prevents concrete from failing to fully penetrate the through holes, but also improves the overall structural stability of the solid steel column.

[0040] Step S2.3: Connect the through hole and the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork using a thin threaded rod. Specifically, the distance between the end of the solid steel column and the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork is not less than 150mm, allowing a thin threaded rod to be inserted inside the through hole, with one end of the thin threaded rod positioned inside the through hole and the other end positioned on the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork. Furthermore, a connecting through hole is also provided at the end of the solid steel column, where the end of the solid steel column and the inner wall of the fair-faced concrete formwork are connected via a thin threaded rod and the connecting through hole.

[0041] Step S2.4: Using the numbering system set in Step S2.1, place the numbered solid steel columns one by one into the fair-faced concrete formwork cut in Step S1. Specifically, the interior of the cut fair-faced concrete formwork is equipped with positioning frames matching the number of solid steel columns, allowing for quick and accurate placement of the solid steel columns into the appropriate positions within the formwork.

[0042] Step S2.5: Place the assembled solid steel column into the interior of the fair-faced concrete formwork and pour the concrete. Specifically, during the concrete pouring process, the concrete must be fully poured into the through holes opened on the solid steel column to ensure that the concrete is fully incorporated into the solid steel column. This makes the connection between the solid steel column, the concrete, and the fair-faced concrete formwork more reliable and, to a certain extent, strengthens the overall fair-faced concrete formwork, thereby improving the construction stability of the fair-faced concrete formwork in this embodiment.

[0043] Step S3: Using the calibration template from Step S1, calibrate the formwork of the poured fair-faced concrete. Details are as follows:

[0044] Step S3.1: Place the poured fair-faced concrete formwork from step S2.5 into the interior of the correction formwork from step S1. Specifically, the correction formwork in this embodiment includes multiple correction frames, each with threaded holes. Adjacent correction frames can be connected by turning a fixing screw into the threaded hole. In other words, the threaded connection not only secures the correction frames together but also facilitates disassembly, movement, and assembly. Furthermore, it allows for adjustment of the various surfaces of the correction frames according to the actual specifications of the fair-faced concrete formwork.

[0045] Step S3.2: Based on the size of the poured fair-faced concrete formwork and the internal dimensions of the correction formwork, the poured fair-faced concrete formwork is corrected. Specifically, the poured fair-faced concrete formwork is placed inside the correction formwork, and during this process, the contact between the four sides of the fair-faced concrete formwork and the inside of the correction formwork is observed. If the four sides of the fair-faced concrete formwork are not in contact with the inside of the correction formwork, it indicates that the fair-faced concrete formwork needs to be corrected. This can be done by cutting or trimming the non-standard parts using tools. In other words, by correcting the cut and poured fair-faced concrete formwork, the problem of adjacent fair-faced concrete formwork not fitting together perfectly can be avoided after it is put into use. Furthermore, during the correction process, the shape and dimensions of the fair-faced concrete formwork can be processed to be as close as possible to the ideal state of the construction drawings, thereby improving the processing effect of the fair-faced concrete formwork.

[0046] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
