ABSTRACT:
A support device for supporting longitudinal rigid members in a poured layer for example rebar within concrete comprises two V-shaped wire elements which are inverted and have parallel rails welded across the elements. Two lower rails are spaced at the end of the legs of the elements to allow the ends of the legs to be inserted into the ground. The elongate members then rest across the upper rails between two apex portions of the elements which extend upwardly above the upper rails. The rails extend out beyond the elements to provide portions which can be inserted into the ground when the device is rotated through 90.degree. to support the elongate members at a different height from the base layer. The use of a wire structure enables the concrete to be poured around the device without the formation of voids. The use of four legs inserted into a sand or similar base provides great stability.
