ABSTRACT:
A holder for use in building construction for holding anchor bolts, rebar, in-concrete plumbing, and the like, in predetermined positions during the pouring of concrete therearound. The holder is molded in one piece from a suitable plastic and includes an elongated base plate, the front end of which has an end hole therethrough; a sleeve upstanding from the base plate over the end hole; elongated first and second side ribs upstanding from the top surface of the base plate along the side edges thereof and connected to the sleeve; an end rib partially wrapped around the sleeve and connected to the side ribs; a center rib upstanding from the base plate between the side ribs and also connected to the sleeve; webs upstanding from the base plate, interconnecting the side and center ribs, and having nail holes therethrough. The holder preferably also has an end plate. The integration of the ribs and webs with each other and with the base plate, the sleeve, and the end plate, in one-piece, and out of plastic, provides a lightweight, durable, low cost holder for the purposes described. A feature of the invention is the molding of the holder out of colored plastic so that it can be readily seen by construction workers after the concrete has been poured partially covering it. An alternative embodiment provides such a holder that can be spread apart for receiving and clamping around anchor bolts, rebar or similar construction elements.
