What is a Rebar Chair and How Does it Help with Concrete Pours?
Rebar chairs are a must have for any concrete pour. They hold and secure the rebar in place while the concrete is poured so the rebar is embedded in the concrete. Rebar chairs also prevent the rebar from moving or shifting during the pour which can cause cracking or structural problems. By using a rebar chair, contractors can pour concrete safely and efficiently. Many contractors prefer Harris Company because we have a wide range of rebar chairs and detailed specifications.
