Radius Curb & Gutter Forms
The dee radius curb and gutter forming systems consists of a back form, a radius face form, a radius front form, a division plate and a top spreader. Back and front forms are standard radius flatwork forms with the back form taller than the front form.
There are 5 basic types of radius curbs:
- Vertical face - a setup with the front and the back of the curb at 90° angles
- Battered face - a curbface with the back of the curb at a 90° angle and the front at less than a 90° angle
- Bottom radius - a battered curbface with a single radius formed into the bottom of the curb
- Top and bottom radius - a battered curbface with a radius formed into the top and bottom of the curb
- Drive over - a curbface with a slow, gradual batter allowing traffic to pass over
The drive over profile only requires a front form and a back form spaced by division plates that are used as templates for striking off the drive over profile.
Typical Applications:
dee radius curb and gutter forms are used primarily to form traffic barriers and direct water to sewers, culverts or ditches. Water can be directed away from the curb (out flow), or towards the curb (in flow) depending on the curb and gutter configuration. Typical applications include:
- Streets
- Roadways
- Parking lots
- Driveways

Few moving parts (other than the heavy-duty wedges that lock the form securely to the form pin) |
Fast and easy setup/removal |
Height adjustability |
Keeps form in line for simple curb & gutter forming on non-graded areas |
Accomodates high strength steel form pins |
Prevents misalignments during placement |
1 to 3 stake pockets |
Strongest concrete placement forms in the industry providing many years, even decades, of useful life |
Male and female transistion forms |
Fast transition from radius to straight or straight to radius |
Curbface form can be locked in place (by using a top spreader and/or division plates) |
Ensures matched specifications and passed inspections |
Available with custom manufactured curbface forms and division plates |
Match any curb profile |
All-welded (not riveted like many competitor forms) to increase the form strength and rigidity |
Guaranteed accurate forming and improved form longevity |
