Abstract:
Methods for manufacturing a composite concrete structure are provided. A method can include utilizing a shell formwork with a displacement piece positioned therein. A first type of concrete can be placed in the shell formwork around the displacement piece. The displacement piece, when removed, leaves a void that is tillable with a second type of concrete for form the composite concrete structure. A reinforcement cage or reinforcement rods can be incorporated into the void prior to placement of the second type of concrete.

Claim (Index 10):
A method for manufacturing a composite construct comprising:\n obtaining a shell formwork for the composite construct; positioning at least one displacement piece within the shell formwork; depositing a first type of concrete, comprising a moisture-resistant Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC), in the shell formwork to surround the displacement piece, leaving at least a portion of the displacement piece uncovered by the first type of concrete; allowing the first type of concrete to cure around the displacement piece; removing the displacement piece after the first type of concrete has cured to form a void having a surface within the first type of cured concrete; removing the shell formwork from the cured first type of concrete to provide an outer shell with the void therein; positioning a reinforcement structure within the void; placing a second type of concrete in the void of the outer shell; and allowing the second type of concrete to cure within the void, so as to form an interface with the outer shell where the second type of concrete fuses to the surface of the void, thereby forming a core within the outer shell resulting in the composite construct.
