1. A method for fabricating a concrete wall panel atop a concrete slab, comprising:

  • providing a form atop the concrete slab;

    providing a plurality of blocks adapted to reinforce the form;

    securing the blocks to the concrete slab in reinforcing positions adjacent the form;

    pouring concrete in the form allowing the concrete to cure to thereby produce the concrete wall panel;

    tilting the concrete wall panel upwardly from the concrete slab into a desired position; and

    removing the blocks from the concrete slab;

    wherein the step of securing the blocks to the concrete slab includes securing the blocks to the concrete slab adhesively using adhesive material between the blocks and the concrete slab that is adapted to function as means for securing the blocks to the concrete slab adhesively without the need for securing the blocks to the concrete slab with fasteners such as nails and screws extending through the blocks into holes in the concrete slab.
