Mitering / Cuts Formula

IntegraSpec® STANDARD Mitering Wall Formula


MITERING IntegraSpec® WITH STANDARD PANELS WITH 6.0 INCH CONCRETE CAVITY FOR
45 DEGREE CORNERS / ANGLE(S)
DESCRIPTION LP

LH = Long Heel (1st part of panel "A") SP


SP = Short Point (2nd part of panel "A")
SH = Short Heel (1st part of panel "B")
LP = Long Point (2nd part of panel "B")
LH

1st Panel cuts = SP + LH = Panel "A" SH


2nd Panels cuts = LP + SH = Panel "B"

NOTE: Two Mitered Standard IntegraSpec® Panels ("A" & "B") as per Formula provided below = One Angled Corner
Complete Block (no wastes). ***For best results, use a sliding miter saw***

MITERING FORMULA EXAMPLE FOR 6" CONCRETE WALL:


d = TAN (Degree/2) X 11" (overall wall width) SP = d/2 - 1/8" + 16"
SH = SP - d
LP = SP + 16"
LH = LP - d
45 Degree CORNER MITER CUT EXAMPLE
Fig. D.1
Cutting Angle = 22.5 Degree 45 Degree Assembled Corner
6" concrete core

d = TAN 22.5º X 11" = 4.56 SP = 4.56/2 - 0.125 + 16" = 18.153" = 18 5/32 "
SH = 18.153" - 4.56 = 13.59" = 13 5/ 8 "
(.4142) X (11) = (4.56)
LP = 18.153" + 16" = 34.15" = 34 5/32 "
LH = 34.15" - 4.56 = 29.59" = 29 5/ 8 "

SP , , 34 5/32 (Panel "B") LP = 34.153 "= 34 5/32 "
18 5/32 (Panel "A") LH = 29.597 "= 29 5/ 8 "

CUTTING PROCEDURES:

Set Miter Saw @ 22.50 Degree

29 5/ 8 1st Panel: Cut at measurement intersection of


LH SP with your saw set at cutting angle shown
above. Piece remaining = LH.

2nd Panel: Cut at measurement intersection of


SH LP with your saw set at cutting angle shown
13 5/ 8 above. Piece remaining = SH.

IntegraSpec® METRIC Mitering Wall Formula


MITERING IntegraSpec® WITH STANDARD PANELS WITH 152.0 mm CONCRETE CAVITY FOR
45 DEGREE CORNERS / ANGLE(S)
DESCRIPTION LP

LH = Long Heel (1st part of panel "A") SP


SP = Short Point (2nd part of panel "A")
SH = Short Heel (1st part of panel "B")
LP = Long Point (2nd part of panel "B")
LH

1st Panel cuts = SP + LH = Panel "A" SH


2nd Panels cuts = LP + SH = Panel "B"

NOTE: Two Mitered Standard IntegraSpec® Panels ("A" & "B") as per Formula provided below = One Angled Corner
Complete Block (no wastes). ***For best results, use a sliding miter saw***

MITERING FORMULA EXAMPLE FOR 152 mm CONCRETE WALL:


d = TAN (Degree/2) X 280 mm (overall wall width) SP = d/2 - 3 mm + 406 mm
SH = SP - d
LP = SP + 406 mm
LH = LP - d
45 Degree CORNER MITER CUT EXAMPLE
Fig. D.1
Cutting Angle = 22.5 Degree 45 Degree Assembled Corner
152 mm concrete core

d = TAN 22.5º X 280 mm = 116 SP = 116/2 - 3 + 406 = 461 mm = 461.00 mm


SH = 461 mm - 116 = 345 mm = 345.00 mm
(.4142) X (280) = (116)
LP = 461 mm + 406 mm = 867 mm = 867.00 mm
LH = 867 mm - 116 = 751 mm = 751.00 mm

(Excel Spreadsheet application)


ENTER DEGREE OF ANGLE / CORNER BLOCK DESIRED IN BOX 45 Degree (angle)
ENTER CONCRETE CORE / CAVITY SIZE IN BOX 152.00 mm (concrete cavity)
(Panel "A") SP = 460.783 = 461.00 mm

SP , , 867.00 (Panel "B") LP = 866.783 = 867.00 mm
461.00 (Panel "A") LH = 751.217 = 751.00 mm

CUTTING PROCEDURES:

Set Miter Saw @ 22.50 Degree

751.00 1st Panel: Cut at measurement intersection of


LH SP with your saw set at cutting angle shown
above. Piece remaining = LH.

2nd Panel: Cut at measurement intersection of


SH LP with your saw set at cutting angle shown
