All New Modular Brace!

The new Modular Brace means 50% fewer braces for typical tilt-up applications. Of course, fewer braces reduce brace inventory, job site handling, panel attachment and dismantling time. Lots of savings.   And the savings don't stop there. There are 50% fewer brace inserts, 50% fewer brace attachments, 50% fewer bolts, 50% fewer man-lifts, and 50% fewer shipments. [...]

From the Ground Up

Stop cutting and fumbling with lumber blocks. Start forming faster with the reusable 9x11 Edge Form Bracket. The new bracket can be nailed, screwed or glued to lumber and concrete surfaces. Brackets can be stripped, stacked, saved and reused. The one-piece, wedge-shaped plastic design braces tilt-up edge forms. The Edge Form Bracket has a 9” side for thinner slabs (9” to 11”) and a 11” side for thicker slabs (11” to 13”). Both faces of the bracket have holes for attachment. [...]

It Comes Down to the Plywood!

It Comes Down to the Plywood! A handset form might not be worth the money without a high-quality plywood face. After all, the appearance of the concrete and life of the form comes down to the plywood. The type of wood, number of veneers, laminating pressure, final sanding and overlay, all make a difference in plywood performance and longevity. In the side-by-side picture, you can see the extra veneers in SureBuilt birch compared to brand X. [...]

Ongoing Price Uncertainty

Since many of you handle rebar and mesh, you already know the cost of steel items has been erratic and delivery unpredictable. The same is true for the green rod, wire and steel shapes we purchase every day. While we always do what we can to counter cost increases with product improvements and/or manufacturing efficiency, we find it necessary in this instance, to temporarily suspend "standard" pricing. We will be reviewing every RFQ and PO, checking raw material availability, evaluating quantities and prices, and replying with a limited time confirmation and commitment. [...]
