Are rebar chairs necessary?
Rebar chairs keep rebar in place during construction, as well as provide more stability and proper concrete flow when concrete is poured in (commonly used in concrete slabs and footings). Rebar chairs enhance the support and stability of the concrete structure.
Do you leave rebar chairs in concrete?
Yes, Rebar Chairs are left inside the concrete to help support the rebar.
What is a rebar chair for?

- Foundations: slabs, footings, and walls
- Bridges: bridge decks and piers
- Buildings: columns, beams, and walls
- Retaining walls
- Roads and highways
Rebar Spacing - How many rebars chairs do I need?
The amount of rebar chairs needed will depend on the project. As a best practice, place them about 2 to 3 feet apart along the length of the rebar.
