Reinforcing Inserts at Construction Joint
(OP)
I am designing a concrete slab that will stop short of a complete slab pour due to construction constraints. I am looking for a tube/pipe insert to embed at the edge of the pour. I would like to insert dowels into the tube/pipe when the remainder of the slab is to be poured. I am tryign to avoid casting the dowels in the first pour to avoid them sticking out until the rest of the slab is poured. Does anybody make such an item? Should I just go with a pipe that fits the dowel?

There is a lenton grout tube that gives a full strength tension splice.

If you don't want a movement joint, cast in threaded inserts (ferrules) and screw in rebar with a threaded end when required.

These are for shear transfer, not tension or moment.
