Check each tie and spacing from the ground to ensure 3” between your concrete edge and the nearest rebar rod.
How Far Should Rebar Be from Edge of Concrete?
The answer to how far rebar should be from the edge of concrete depends on many factors, including the type of concrete, the size and weight of the rebar, the amount of stress the concrete will be under, and the type of construction. In general, however, rebar should be at least 3/8 of an inch from the edge of concrete.
This will help to ensure that the rebar does not crack the concrete, and that the concrete can properly support the weight of the rebar.
