Abstract: Devices for supporting horizontally oriented reinforcing bars in a form for concrete and devices for supporting vertically oriented reinforcing bars are disclosed herein. The devices for supporting horizontally oriented reinforcing bars (horizontal reinforcing bar) engage the side walls of a form, spans the space between the walls, and remains securely in position. The device includes guide members for guiding reinforcing bar sections into a desired position, and members that secure the reinforcing bar in position. The devices for supporting vertically oriented reinforcing bars (vertical reinforcing bar) are used with a generally L-shaped section of reinforcing bar and secured to two parallel sections of horizontal reinforcing bar. The devices can be constructed from any material having properties that make the material satisfactory for use with concrete and provide sufficient strength to support the form side walls against deformation under hydrostatic pressure.
