Concrete Dobie Blocks with Spreader

Story Behind the Invention

Inventor Jason L. Axmaker, an industrial concrete foreman from Jefferson, OR has created a forming aid for use when pouring concrete walls.

The use of concrete as a building material for foundations has been long established. It is almost indestructible and will last a lifetime in even the harshest of environmental conditions. One typical application is in the use of walls where it is poured into a form that is reinforced with rebar. Conventional building methods require the use of spacers, chairs or other positioning hardware to ensure that the rebar is properly positioned in the wall where it can provide the maximum contribution to wall strength. One type of hardware will ensure that the rebar is not too close to the surface of the wall. Other hardware is necessary to ensure that the rebar does not bunch up in the middle of the wall where it is less effective. Of course all of this hardware takes time to place. In addition, ensuring that the wall is cast at a consistent thickness requires multiple checks and adjustments. In turn, Inventor Axmaker created the Concrete Dobie Blocks with Spreader.

This clever new invention maintains exact wall spread. It ensures that reinforcement rebar does not bunch up in the middle of a wall. It eliminates errors. It provides for a higher quality product. Now foundation walls can be constructed in a matter of hours versus a matter of days! The use of the Concrete Dobie Blocks with Spreader provides an alternative means of conventional concrete wall forming and construction in a manner which is not only quick, easy, and effective, but cost saving as well.
