Diamond / Plate Dowels

Several benefits can be gained by using diamond dowels and plate dowels in concrete construction.

The main advantage of using diamond dowels and plate dowels is that they can transfer loads between adjacent slabs without causing joint spalling. When repeated heavy loads and temperature changes cause the edges of the slab to break off, joint spalling occurs. By allowing differential movement between slabs while maintaining load transfer, diamond dowels and plate dowels prevent this from occurring.

There is no need to worry about installation when using diamond dowels and plate dowels. These dowels can easily be inserted into pre-drilled holes or inserted into joints between adjacent slabs. As a result, not only do you save time but also labor costs associated with concrete construction are reduced.

Additionally, diamond dowels and plate dowels are low maintenance, which makes them an effective long-term solution. It is important to note that once installed, these dowels require little to no maintenance, reducing the need for costly repair and replacement services.

In addition, diamond dowels and plate dowels are available in a variety of sizes and configurations, making them suitable for a variety of concrete construction projects. A wide variety of applications can be adapted to use them, including residential, commercial, and industrial applications, such as parking lots, driveways, industrial floors, etc.
