Abstract:
An insulated concrete form panel assembly for constructing insulated concrete walls includes a frame comprising a plurality of steel studs and at least two cross members that connect the studs together. A pair of insulating panels are fastened to and span respective inner and outer opposing sides of the frame so as to define concrete receiving cavities between the panels and the studs. A brick ledge may be constructed by separating a laterally extending, generally rectangular elongated mid portion of the outer insulating panel from a remainder of the outer insulating panel. An upper edge of the mid portion is then moved a predetermined distance outward from the remainder of the outer insulating panel such that the mid portion is disposed in a desired position at an angle to the remainder of the outer insulating panel. The mid portion is then secured in the desired position relative to the frame.
