How To Install Rebar The Easy Way When Building A Small Concrete Stairway 

Your videos are so well explained and are exactly what we needed so thank you so much for making them.

I've received a couple of comments about connecting the concrete stairs to the concrete porch shown in the video and would like to point out that this method would require a hammer drill or a tool that most viewers don't have. Making it a little more difficult and would force me to remove the words "easy way" from the video title. I will make another video and put a link here when it's done, showing how to connect the stairs with rebar to concrete and concrete stairs to siding, stucco and raised floor framing.

Отличная работа 👍👍👍

Thank you

Love your videos. Perfect timing i was just about to do this. If you dont mind, any links to info on how i can pour a slab on top of cinderblock? Im redoing my front porch and its constructed the same as my back porch, but when i went to demo the back porch i found its just an open cinderblock base with a little dirt/sand/gravel in the middle with a lot of open air. Makes me really wonder how they poured the slab in the first place and how im going to re create that.

Thank you for this video. I have 3 steps to make like these but larger (7' wide). 2 questions: do I need vertical rebar? Do you pour on 3/4 rocks? Thanks again!

Hi, my contractor just finished pouring concrete over a porch (with wire mesh) and one step down from the porch without any rebar on the step. The step is 9” H x 3’ W x 6’ L. Although there’s gravel underneath, would that eventually sink without reinforcement? Would the porch be strong enough to hold the step from sinking? I couldn’t stop them in time unfortunately and will question them tomorrow. It’d be great to have your opinion on it in case they bullshit me. Thanks!

When building steps on a sidewalk, what do u use to hold the wood frame

What kind of foundation so you use? I only found one video of this using sono tubes but is that right?

Greg. Would drilling the rebar into the existing structure also be an option?

won't the higher stairs' concrete flow into lower steps if lower are not cured yet or how long should I wait between layers/steps? PS. or is concrete like mud and won't flow down?

What about tying the steps to the existing concrete by attaching the rebar to the existing concrete ?

I am looking to get these excat steps made in my garage, my contractor said he is using mesh instead of rebar is that okay ?
