Abstract:
A method for constructing a forming system for building a corner structure having two non-coplanar surfaces connected to one another, the method comprising the steps of:providing a first pair of substantially parallel U-shaped elongated members positioned upon a base;providing a second pair of substantially parallel U-shaped elongated members positioned upon the base at an angle with respect to the first pair of members, the first and second pairs of members defining an outer channel and an inner channel;inserting a first end of a corner element into the outer channel;inserting a first end of a corner panel into the inner channel, the corner element and the corner panel each having lateral edges with substantially vertical slots defined therein;inserting an outer panel into the outer channel on either side of the corner element;inserting an inner panel into the inner channel on either side of the corner panel, the outer and inner panels each having lateral edges with substantially vertical slots defined therein;providing a plurality of elongated members having flanges;connecting the outer panels to the corner element by inserting the flanges of the elongated members into adjacent slots of the outer panels and the corner element;connecting the inner panels to the corner panel by inserting the flanges of the elongated members into adjacent slots of the inner panels and the corner panel.
