ABSTRACT:
A support member for a concrete structure comprises a T-shaped insert defining a T-shaped internal volume. A nut is inserted in the transverse portion of the internal volume and end caps are placed over the ends of the insert to fully seal enclose the internal volume. The insert is then placed within a form for a concrete structure such that the base surface of the T-shaped insert will be coplanar with a surface of the concrete after the concrete has been poured into the form and set. The base wall of the insert is then removed, thus exposing the T-shaped volume. The distal end of a bolt can be inserted into the insert and fixed to the nut. The proximal end of the bolt extends out of the insert and beyond the surface of the concrete and can be attached to equipment or other structure which is to be supported on the concrete structure. Feet may be provided on the end caps to support the insert away from the surface of the form so that when the concrete is poured and set, the insert will be embedded within the concrete rather than contiguous with the surface of the concrete. Antennae may be provided on the end caps to extend above the base surface of the T-shaped insert so that such antenna will extend above the surface of the concrete so that the insert can be easily located visually.
