Curb wall forming apparatus and method of forming a curb wall
First Claim
1. A curb wall forming apparatus for forming a concrete curb wall on a floor adjacent to a wall extending upwardly from the floor, the curb wall forming apparatus comprising:
- a floor plate having at least one edge configured to extend into the concrete curb wall after the curb wall is formed, the floor plate including;
(1) a floor base plate positionable on the floor, (2) a curb side wall forming panel attachment plate connected to and extending upwardly from the base plate, and (3) a locking lip connected to and extending inwardly from the curb side wall forming panel attachment plate, wherein the locking lip defines a plurality of spaced apart slots that enable concrete that forms the curb wall to extend through the locking lip to partially lock the floor plate to the curb wall;
a curb side wall forming panel support having at least one edge configured to extend into the concrete curb wall after the curb wall is formed; and
an end plate having at least one edge configured to extend into the concrete curb wall after the curb wall is formed.

Abstract
Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a curb wall forming apparatus and method for forming a curb wall without causing damage to the adjacent concrete floor. In various embodiments, the curb wall forming apparatus includes one or more floor plates, one or more curb side wall forming panel supports, one or more stanchions, one or more end plates, one or more wall attachment plates, and one or more curb side wall forming panels which are used together to enable a curb wall to be formed. These components can be used together to enable a curb wall to be formed on a floor adjacent to an upstanding wall without causing damage to the wall or the area of the floor adjacent to the formed curb wall. The floor plates, the curb side wall forming panel supports, the stanchions, the end plates, and the wall attachment plates remain as part of the formed curb wall.
