Cover block

Cover block kept in the pan. These cover blocks should have wire attatched or embedded in them in order to fix them nicely in bars for providing necessary cover.For providing cover of some distance only one cover block should be used at a time. These cover blocks should be of the same quality or grade being used in concreting process

Cover blocks should be tied to the reinforcement bars with the help of the wire embedded in it and coming out slightly(provided for tying purpose) firmly in order to provide necessary cover in the concrete members and maintain required distance in between the formwork and bars.
