  • Patent number: 5371991
    Abstract: A re-bar clamp assembly for use in forming concrete footings that require the reinforcing steel rods to be spaced upwardly at a predetermined height above the ground so that when the concrete is poured into the footings the reinforcing bars will be completely encapsulated by the concrete. One of the forms of the re-bar clamp assembly is formed of a pair of first and second C-shaped clamps that are attached to each other in a stacked vertical orientation but with the open mouth of each clamp oriented substantially 90 degrees away from each other. Thus when the re-bars are snapped into the clamp assembly they will be oriented at 90 degrees to each other. A second form of the re-bar clamp assembly has a horizontally oriented C-shaped clamp that forms a slot for detachably curved finger extending re-bar steel rod. A resilient spring finger on the C-shaped clamp extends inwardly above the stake slot area and fictionally holds the clamp at any predetermined height on the stake.
