Abstract
A buck bracket has a body with two slotted apertures. A first slotted aperture has an opening with dimensions sufficient to snuggly accept an end edge of a first buck section and a second slotted aperture has an opening with dimensions sufficient to snuggly accept an end edge of a second buck section. The first slotted aperture is substantially lengthwise parallel to the second slotted aperture and is depth-wise at a 90 degree angle with respect to the second slotted aperture.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A buck bracket comprising:
a body having two slotted apertures, a first slotted aperture of the two slotted apertures having an opening dimension sufficient to snuggly accept an end edge of a first buck section, a second slotted aperture of the two slotted apertures having the opening dimension sufficient to snuggly accept an end edge of a second buck section, the first slotted aperture being substantially lengthwise parallel to the second slotted aperture and the first slotted aperture being depth-wise at an angle of 1 to 89 degrees with respect to the second slotted aperture.
2 . The buck bracket of claim 1 , wherein the angle is 90 degrees.
3 . The buck bracket of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of pilot holes.
4 . The buck bracket of claim 1 , wherein a depth of the first slotted aperture is approximately equal to a height of a side section outer wall of the second buck section.
5 . The buck bracket of claim 1 , wherein the buck bracket is made from polyvinyl chloride.
6 . A method of making a framed opening in a poured concrete foundation, the foundation poured between two insulated concrete foundation walls, the method comprising:
providing a plurality of the buck sections that match the desired dimension of the opening; affixing each pair of the plurality of buck sections to an adjacent buck section of the plurality of buck sections using a buck bracket of claim 1 , forming a closed geometric shape; positioning edges of a first insulated concrete foundation wall of the insulated concrete foundation walls into a first channel of the plurality of buck sections; positioning edges of a second insulated concrete foundation wall of the insulated concrete foundation walls into a second channel of the plurality of buck sections; and pouring concrete between the first insulated concrete wall and the second insulated concrete wall.
7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising the step of affixing each of the buck sections to corresponding buck brackets using fasteners.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the angle is 90 degrees and the framed opening is rectangular.
9 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the buck bracket is made from polyvinyl chloride.
10 . A buck bracket for affixing two buck sections at a right angle, the buck bracket comprising:
a body having two slotted apertures, a first slotted aperture of the two slotted apertures having an opening dimension sufficient to snuggly accept an end edge of a first buck section of the two buck sections, a second slotted aperture of the two slotted apertures having the opening dimension sufficient to snuggly accept an end edge of a second buck section of the two buck sections, the first slotted aperture being substantially lengthwise parallel to the second slotted aperture and the first slotted aperture being depth-wise at a 90 degree angle to the second slotted aperture.
11 . The buck bracket of claim 10 , further comprising a plurality of pilot holes.
12 . The buck bracket of claim 10 , wherein a depth of the first slotted aperture is approximately equal to a height of a side section outer wall of the second buck section.
13 . The buck bracket of claim 10 , wherein the buck bracket is made from polyvinyl chloride.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
