Hi everyone,

I'm back again with some more dumb questions on constructing the rebar cage
for my MA-40.  The hole will be 3' X 3' X 4'.  I'm having trouble interpreting
the diagram in the US Tower instructions.  This is the way I understand it.
The corners have vertical 1/2" rebar.  The horizontal squares are 3/8" rebar
but is says they are to be @ 24" O.C.  Does that mean that thay are spaced
vertically 24" from the bottom of the hole to the top?  Also the vertical 3/8"
rebar on the sides has the same designation.  I'm not sure if I am seeing this
right.  I would appreciate a little clarification.  

Thanks for the help and also thanks for the previous suggestions.  73.
