Abstract:
Systems and methods for constructing concrete foundations are provided which allow for rapid and high-precision placement and alignment of anchor bolts across large distances. A frame system is constructed outside of an excavation and then suspended, using supports, over an excavation. The frame system can include a frame having one or more templates for anchor bolts, a form suspended from the frame, and a mat and cage assembly tied to the frame. The frame system can be aligned in proper position and the anchor bolts placed in the frame system before the concrete is placed. In this way, the anchor bolts can be cast in place as the footing is placed.

Claim (Index 15):
A system for forming a spread footing in an excavation, the system comprising:\n a first member configured to extend over the excavation from a first support to a second support; a second member suspended from the first member, the second member configured to receive and at least partially contain concrete; a third member suspended from the first member, the third member being configured to reinforce the concrete; and a fourth member defining an inbed template for the concrete; wherein the first member has a length in a first dimension which is longer than a length of the third member in the first dimension; and at least one fifth member configured to couple to the first member and the second member, at least a portion of the at least one fifth member being spaced apart from the fourth member by a sufficient distance to allow access by workers' hands to the fourth member.
