-a, the concrete construction method that forms a joint pattern on the surface of a concrete wall consists of a joint forming material for transferring the joint pattern formed integrally on an elastic substrate such as rubber. This is done by framing a plurality of elastic decorative forms, pouring concrete material along the frame surface and hardening it, and then removing the decorative forms. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of elastic decorative forms 1 integrally formed with the joint forming material are placed in a state PA with the joint forming material facing inward (the joint forming material is hidden and cannot be seen). Decorative formwork 1 for frame 2 to form panels
A metal reinforcing pipe 5 is arranged perpendicular to the crosspiece 2 so as to be able to withstand the pressure of the concrete material being placed. At that time, a hole (not shown) for connecting the connecting rod 3 for fixing the reinforcing pipe 5 is made in the decorative formwork 1, the connecting rod 3 is inserted into this hole, and then the reinforcing pipe 5 is arranged. , and then connect the reinforcing pipe 5 with a form tie 6 with a washer.
The decorative form l is framed by holding this form pick 6 with a mold or the like. Then, a concrete wall is manufactured by pouring and hardening concrete material between this and a formwork (hidden and invisible) placed opposite to it, and then dismantling the formwork. ing. The above formwork will be reused after being dismantled.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] By the way, in the above-mentioned construction method, the central region of the concrete wall can be formed by arranging a predetermined number of elastic decorative forms of specified dimensions and framing them. . However, when forming the peripheral area, the elastic decorative frame material of specified dimensions is too large, so it is cut as appropriate and used. For example, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the elastic decorative formwork 7 of the specified size is too large for the part corresponding to the upper corner of the concrete wall, so the elastic decorative formwork 7 of the specified size is used. It is cut and used as shown by the dashed line A in the figure. However, in this case, the cut elastic decorative formwork 7 cannot be used repeatedly, which is extremely uneconomical. In some cases, the joint pattern formed by the elastic joint forming material 7a of the decorative formwork 7 in the central area and the elastic joint forming material 7a of the decorative formwork 7 in the peripheral area may be
The joint pattern formed by the joint pattern does not form a continuous pattern,
There is also the problem that only the joint pattern in the peripheral area becomes a different pattern from the joint pattern in the central area, resulting in an unnatural pattern. However, the reality is that there is no decorative formwork other than those with specified dimensions (standard size), so when forming the surrounding area,
As described above, elastic decorative molds of specified dimensions are cut and used.

That is, the present invention provides a flat substrate with no joint forming material integrally formed on its surface as a forming formwork for the peripheral area of a concrete wall body (including plate-like bodies such as concrete plates), and Since the elastic joint forming material is removably attached by nailing to form the desired contour pattern, it is possible to form the contour pattern of the surrounding area while taking into account the balance of the overall pattern, and at the same time After forming the wall, remove the substrate that is the forming formwork for the peripheral area, remove the elastic joint forming material from the substrate, and nail the elastic joint forming material again in a predetermined pattern. As a result, the repeatability of the mold for forming the peripheral area can be ensured. Therefore, it will also bring about economic effects.

First, prepare multiple pieces of rubber decorative formwork (regular dimensions: 900 x 1800 squares) that are integrally formed with rubber joint forming material, which will be the forming formwork for the central area of the concrete wall, and also prepare a decorative mold for the surrounding area. Three types of rubber substrates (300X1800n+, 600X18
00m, 900X1800 Dragon) Prepare. Next, a plurality of rubber decorative formworks (elastic decorative formworks) with the specified dimensions are framed, and one of the three types of rubber substrates described above is placed in the peripheral area where the decorative formwork with the specified dimensions would be incomplete. Choose the one with the most suitable dimensions, arrange it, and frame it. Then, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this rubber substrate 1
0, the elastic joint forming material 7a of the elastic decorative formwork 7 with specified dimensions.
A hollowed-out sheet-like elastic (rubber) joint forming material 10a is nailed to form a contour pattern and a continuous pattern. After this is made into panels as shown in FIG. 3, concrete material is poured and hardened, and after the concrete material hardens, the formwork is dismantled. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4, a joint pattern is formed on the surface of the produced concrete wall 11 by the transfer of the elastic joint forming materials 7a and 10a.

After the formwork is dismantled, the elastic decorative formwork 7 with the specified dimensions can be used again as the formwork for the central area of the concrete wall, and the rubber substrate 10 that will become the formwork for the peripheral area can also be used again. It can be used as a formwork for the surrounding area. In this case, since the elastic joint forming material 10a is nailed, if the pattern formed by the elastic joint forming material 10a upsets the overall balance of the joint pattern of the newly formed concrete wall, This can be achieved by nailing and fixing an elastic joint forming material that can form a different contour pattern.

In addition, in the above description, a cut-out sheet-like material is used as the elastic joint forming material 10a, but a linear rubber material is used and bent on the rubber substrate 10 so as to form an outline pattern. It may also be possible to fix it by nailing as appropriate while it is being formed. Further, the above-mentioned elastic joint forming material 10a may be attached not only by nailing but also by screwing or the like in a detachable manner. Further, the material of the rubber substrate 10 is not limited to rubber, and may be made of elastic synthetic resin or the like. Furthermore, instead of the elastic decorative formwork 7 and the rubber substrate 10, a rigid formwork with an elastic joint forming material and a rigid substrate may be used.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the joint pattern forming concrete construction method of the present invention frames a decorative formwork of specified dimensions to serve as a forming formwork for the central area of a concrete wall, and serves as a forming formwork for the peripheral area. The substrate is placed around the periphery of the decorative formwork having the specified dimensions, and a contour pattern and a continuous pattern formed by the joint forming material of the decorative formwork having the specified dimensions are formed on the substrate surface of the substrate.
Since the elastic joint forming material is attached removably, it is not necessary to cut the elastic formwork of specified dimensions as in the past (it is possible to form the formwork for the surrounding area. Therefore, only the decorative formwork of specified dimensions can be formed). The formwork for the surrounding area can be used repeatedly, which is extremely economical.In addition, by detachably attaching the elastic joint forming material to the substrate that will become the forming formwork for the surrounding area, Since the joint pattern is formed, it becomes possible to form the joint pattern in the peripheral area while considering the balance of the overall pattern, and it becomes possible to easily form a harmonious joint pattern.
