    the falling on rebar tip reminded me of the guy who used one for a garden stack and fell on it. Impaled under ribs, out neck. Luckiest man alive, it didn't puncture anything. Docs slid it out, the hole clean and then just stitched it shut and sent him home with antibiotics.

      It happens relatively infrequently from a world perspective, but happens every week from an ER-everything that goes bad comes to me-perspective. I get it, when it happens to you you'll wish it didn't; a universally applicable construct. So I'll determine my risk tolerance thanks.
      More so, if you don't like dealing with the aftermath when 'shit happens*', get a different job. Don't expect me not to live my life as I see fit, because the job you chose is gory. Not fair.

    The rebar that was welded and pounded into the dirt will eventually rust and since it’s connected to the footing rebar it will follow it all the way through. A plastic chair or concrete doby will give you the separating from the soil.

    Good point about the long rebar.
    I'm building an extension to a house starting next month, the long wall concrete foundation is nearly 44' long and only 10" thick and no rebar specified by the architect who said it wasn't needed by building regs (code). I think for the cost and my peace of mind, it'll be getting a dose of steel in there!

      I work in commercial concrete and this is a big no-no according to most experts but I have been seeing a lot of differing opinions and literature lately that says it is not as big of a deal as it is made out to be and there won’t be enough oxygen exposure to continue the rust far enough to have structural ramifications.

    • @pauldell703
      @pauldell703 Před 3 lety +3

    You can cut the rebar with a large bolt cutter, I used to lay out precast panels sprayed and stacked with picking eyes. Cut all the rebar from 21 ft stock. Tied up mats on 1 foot centers. They were floor panels on the Sheraton hotel in anchorage AK. I forgot how many stories but it’s plenty. Didn’t use any power.
