A reinforcing assembly for use in a structural concrete member, such as a slab, footing, raft foundation, beam, wall and column, has at least one reinforcing stud with an elongate stem an anchor head at one or both ends, and a support apparatus for positioning the stud in the concrete member. The apparatus has a rail and connector to mechanically secure the stem to the rail in a given spacing and orientation. The connector may be in to form of a clip member for mounting on the rail and for securing the stud thereto, or the connector may be formed integrally with the rail in the form of a recess along an edge of the rail. The rail typically positions a plurality of studs in the concrete member at a given location, direction and spacing.
