Dowel Plate Cradles
Concrete construction requires the use of dowel plate cradles to join and connect concrete slabs. They are available in a variety of sizes and shapes. They hold dowel plates in place during the pouring process, keeping them in the correct position and alignment until the concrete has hardened.
By ensuring that the dowel bars are correctly positioned, dowel plate cradles enhance load transfer between concrete slabs. Thus, concrete slabs become more stable and strong, and are less likely to crack or shift over time.
Concrete construction can be sped up by using dowel plate cradles. This allows for quicker installation of dowel bars. Thus, labor costs are reduced as well as time is saved.
There is minimal effort involved in the installation and operation of dowel plate cradles. As a result, they are ideal for use in large-scale construction projects.
