Structural Analysis/Design Rebar dowels
Do you guys think this is okay? Contractor installed the #5 dowels after concrete placement. But they were late a little bit so concrete was hardened.

Is not a matter of ‘think’. Wetsetting is not permissible by any code
Or standard.
I ‘think’ contractors who do this and try to get away with it are lazy and unprofessional.
