Dowel bars are provided in footings to enhance the structural integrity of the concrete by ensuring proper load transfer between adjacent concrete elements, such as slabs and foundations. They help control potential cracking and movement due to temperature changes and shrinkage by providing a mechanical connection without restricting horizontal movement. This improves the overall durability and longevity of the structure. Additionally, dowel bars facilitate alignment during construction, ensuring that the slabs remain properly positioned.
