Abstract

A form extender for concrete construction comprises a sheet metal body with multiple bends forming a tension-based attachment portion. This attachment portion can be removably secured to a form member such as a segment of lumber. The sheet metal body is shaped to extend beyond the form member, providing a form extension surface. This surface maintains continuity with the form member during concrete operations.
