1. A dowel placement system for placing dowels in a concrete structure fabricated using a form, the dowel placement system comprising:
a fastener configured to be engageable with the form; a radially compressible bushing coupled to the fastener and defining an adjustable outer diameter that is of a maximum outer diameter; and an elongate dowel sleeve having a proximal end portion, an opposing distal end portion, and an axial opening having an inner diameter and extending into the dowel sleeve from the proximal end portion to the distal end portion, the elongate dowel sleeve defining a maximum outer diameter greater than the maximum outer diameter of the bushing; the bushing being insertable within the axial opening of the dowel sleeve, the bushing and dowel sleeve being configured such that insertion of the bushing within the dowel sleeve causes the outer diameter of the bushing to compress and conform to the inner diameter of the dowel sleeve and to create a friction force between the bushing and the dowel sleeve to mitigate movement of the dowel sleeve relative to the bushing during formation of the concrete structure. |
