A device for reinforcing concrete. The device is of one-piece construction and includes a perforate load-bearing member with first and second surfaces around which concrete can be placed. Apertures in the perforate load-bearing member form connectivity points between concrete disposed on the first and second surfaces to promote bonding of the concrete such that a contiguous mass of concrete forms upon curing. In various embodiments, the device can be configured as a joint, beam, shear wall, retaining wall or footer. In addition, the device can be prefabricated, thereby reducing the time and cost of formation of a reinforced concrete structural member.
