A field-assembly dowel basket for concrete construction configured for in-the-field assembly from a small number of component parts, including dowels, dowel sleeves that loosely house the dowels, W shaped frame wires that support the dowel sleeves, straight shipping wires that connect dowel basket sections together, and T connectors that join the frame sections to the shipping wires. Various embodiments of the field-assembly dowel basket may use different types of dowel sleeves, such as open-channel sleeves, closed-channel sleeves, and sealed-channel sleeves in which tape or another suitable cover is used to seal open-channel sleeves. The dowel sleeves may house different types of dowels, such as rectangular plate dowels and round rod dowels.

A decking system including a plank and a plug that is configured for insertion into fastener holes of the plank to conceal the fastener holes. The plug may be formed as part of a plug apparatus which may be an injection molded monolithic structure including a support member and a plurality of the plugs coupled thereto. The support member may be a support strip that extends along a strip axis. The plurality of plugs may be connected to the support strip. Each of the plugs may be configured to be detached from the support strip and inserted into a fastener hole in a plank. The plugs may include a first set of the plugs located on a first lateral side of the support strip and a second set of the plugs located on a second lateral side of the support strip opposite the first lateral side.
