    Rebar sticking up from gunite

    We had a gunite pool shot last Thursday and this has been bothering me since they put the steel in but I kept forgetting to ask. Why would there be rebar sticking up vertically from the outside beam? Is that to tie into decking? I've heard tying the pool into decking isn't a good idea...
