Bar Booster

[ PDF Formatted SheetHome ]


Bar Booster™
Patent Pending

Bar Boosters™ are designed to support a reinforcing steel cage within a drilled shaft with a 3" concrete cover requirement. Faulty placement of the cage may cause foundation failure, which often leads to issues of contingent liability. Because the rebar cage cannot be inspected or tested after the concrete is placed in the drilled shaft, the cage must be properly supported at the outset.

Bar Boosters™ are made of ultra strong, noncorrosive polypropylene and attach to rebar of any size. Each Bar Booster™ has a capacity of 1,500 lbs. The zip tie used for attachment is made of 170 lb. tensile strength resin. Installation is accomplished in seconds by simply positioning the Bar Booster™ on the end of a vertical bar of the cage and pulling the zip tie taut.

Bar Boosters™ are also great for supporting reinforcing steel over waterproofing, in mat foundations and providing vertical support of slurry wall mats.

The yellow color enables the inspector to visually confirm that the spacers have been installed.
