is it acceptable tp drive 1/2 inch rebar down into the ground within a 3 foot deep pier form to hold the horizontal pieces of cut rebar. Another words is it ok to penetrate the ground with rebar that will be covered by concrete to serve as a scaffold for other touching pieces of wired in rebar. I know inspectors want you to hold horizontal runs of rebar up off the soil but what about the vertical pieces into the ground and leaving them in there after the pour?.
