Panel mold for forming composite concrete-reinforced walls

Claim 1

A panel for forming composite concrete-reinforced walls comprising: a pair of parallel sheets composed of pressed composition material having opposing wall surfaces in fixed spaced apart relationship defining an open space therebetween; a plurality of rigid rod members extending between said sheet opposing wall surfaces maintaining said pair of sheets in their fixed parallel relationship; each of said sheets having top and bottom edge marginal regions incorporating an elongated notch so as to provide a registering means for mating with and bearing against similar adjoining panels; a concrete core occupying said open space between said sheet opposing wall surfaces so as to form an interlocking composite wall structure of rod members, said sheets and said concrete core; additional steel reinforcements extending normal to said rod members and interlocked by said concrete core; bonding means attaching the opposite ends of said rod members to the respective wall surfaces of said sheets; and each opposing wall surface of said sheets is provided with a plurality of aligned pairs of recesses for insertably receiving the opposite respective ends of each of said rod members and for holding said bonding means.
