Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve

Abstract

The Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve is a process developed that utilizes a flexible polyolefin plastic sleeve to improve the efficiency of the current concrete wall forming process. The bolt tie is placed inside the flexible polyolefin plastic sleeve before inserted into the wall form. The sleeve saves the installer time by no prior greasing of the bolt tie, no returning on site to “turn” the bolt tie, and no cleaning of the bolt tie after it has been removed. The flexible polyolefin plastic allows the sleeve to not adhere to the concrete, allowing the bolt tie and the flexible polyolefin plastic sleeve to be easily removed after the concrete has dried.

1 . The Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve is a component of a system process to construct a concrete wall, the system process comprising of: a bolt tie to be inserted into the Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve. This now sleeved bolt tie is to be inserted into wall forms giving the walls adequate strength to hold the wall forms together from the immense weight of the concrete in its liquid state. As the concrete dries the Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve does not adhere to the concrete as it dries because this component is made of a Flexible Polyolefin Plastic. After the concrete has dried the bolt tie can be easily removed due to the Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve. The wall forms can now be removed, and finally the Concrete Wall Form Removable Bolt Tie Sleeve can be removed from the concrete wall easily by hand due to the Flexible Polyolefin Plastic that does not adhere to concrete.
