Abstract
A brace for securing concrete forms to a base has first and second triangularly-shaped sidewalls and a back wall extending between corresponding side edges of the sidewalls. A peripheral flange extends outwardly from the side edges of the sidewalls and the ends of the back wall and has apertures for facilitating fastening of the brace to the concrete forms and a casting surface. Advantageously, the brace can be formed as a unitary, molded component. A battering wedge is selectively attachable to the side edges of the sidewalls and cooperates with the brace to facilitate tilting the concrete form at an angle to the casting surface. The battering wedge is selectively frangible to permit use with braces of varying size.
