Disclosed herein is a grouted rebar dowel splice by which first and second rebars to be embedded within adjacent concrete sections are coupled to one another to hold the concrete sections together and resist tension and compression forces that are typically encountered during an earthquake. The rebar splice includes a hollow cylindrical splice body. One end of the hollow splice body is flattened, and a reinforcing sleeve is pressed into surrounding engagement with the flattened first end. The first rebar is received through axially aligned holes formed in the flattened first end and the reinforcing sleeve. A coiled compression spring is engulfed by a solidifier (e.g., an epoxy or a grout) at the hollow interior of the splice body. The second rebar is received through an opening at the opposite end of the splice body to be surrounded by and coaxially aligned with the coiled compression spring. The hole through the flattened first end of the splice body has a longitudinal axis which is perpendicularly aligned with the longitudinal axis of the opening at the first end of the splice body such that the first and second rebars extend in different directions.
