a method of welding reinforcement steel bars and assembly of fusion - welded rebar into panel assemblies that are self - stabilizing to withstand the rigors of transport to and positioning within construction sites . the rebar welding method generates fusion welds in such a manner that the weld imparts stability and strength to the welded rebar assemblies . the rebar welds permit the assembling of larger and more varied rebar panel configurations without the need for tie wire or other coupling devices . further , the welded panels allow positioning of large rebar configurations , insuring that the spacing of the individual bars exceeds all required tolerances . the self - stabilizing fusion rebar welding process allows a more efficient , flexible and rapid method of rebar panel construction by using assembly systems on mobilized trailers or at stationary locations .
