Abstract

An insulating construction form consisting of a pair of spaced apart panels and a plurality of ties is applied to the building of structural walls. The tie members include pairs of resilient retainer arms, which define a series of adjacent receptacles. A reinforcing bar is typically inserted into the receptacles and its displacement therefrom is inhibited by abutment surfaces. Markings are positioned on each panel to guide the attachment of a cladding. In one aspect, the construction form serves for the formation of a corner, wherein a vertical rod is positioned for the attachment of the cladding. In another aspect, the ties include a receptacle capable of retaining two reinforcing bars stacked in an overlapping manner.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 16 February 2001 (16.02.01), original claim 1 amended, remaining claims unchanged (1 page)]
1. An insulating form comprising a pair of panels made of insulating material arranged in spaced parallel relationship with their inner surfaces facing each other and at least two bπdging ties extending between and embedded in said panels, each of said panels including an inside surface and an outside surface, a top surface and a bottom surface, each of said ties comprising a pair of elongated end plates integral with at least one web extending between and connected to said end plates, each of said end plates is located between said inside and said outside surfaces of each of said panels, the web of the tie includes at least one receptacle located along said web, the receptacle having a discrete pair of retainer arms for locating and retaining a reinforcing bar between the arms, said arms are connected to and projecting upperly from said web, wherein said discrete pair of retainer arms are operable individually m respect to other retainer arms locatable along said web.
2. The insulating form as set forth m claim 1 further compπsmg a plurality of abutment surfaces located on respective ones of said arms projecting toward one another, orientated in such a way so as to provide a snap fit for a reinforcing bar inserted in said receptacle.
3. The insulating form as set forth in claim 2, wherein said abutment surfaces compπse barbs angled inwardly towards an inteπor of said corresponding receptacle.
4. The insulating form as set forth m claim 2, wherein said abutment surfaces compπse an arcuate projection projecting inwardly towards an interior of said corresponding receptacle.
5. The insulating form as set forth m claim 2 further including a spme integrally formed along a back of each of said arms.
6. The insulating form is set forth m claim 2, wherein at least one of said receptacles includes an arcuate lip projecting upwardly on said top of said web and between said pair of said arms substantially in the plane of said web.
7. The insulating form as set forth m claim 1 further compπsmg a zone of weakness located adjacent to the connection of said arm to said web, said zone of weakness facilitates detachment of said arm from said web through displacement of said arm transverse to a plane
-15- STATEMENT UNDER ARTICLE 19 (1)
In regards to Rule 46 of the Patent Cooperation Treaty, Applicant would like to amend claim 1 of the above international application. Applicant has amended claim 1 to include clarifying language of a discrete pair of retainer arms. A replacement sheet including amended claim 1 and unamended claims 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 is enclosed.
In light of the foregoing amendment, Applicant would like the Examining Authority to review the finding of multiple groups of inventions as stated by the International Searching Authority in the International Search Report.
