JOINTS IN CONCRETE WORK
• Two types of joints are,
(i) Construction Joints
(ii) Expansion and contraction joints
(i) Construction Joints :
As it is not generally possible to
place concrete in one operation, so it is
necessary to devise suitable means to join
the old and new concrete properly.
[ i.e., to join portions of concrete
constructed at different times ]
Position of construction joints
Columns should be filled to a level few
cm below the junction of a beam, or
alternatively to the bottom of any
haunching.
Joints in beams and slabs should be
formed at the points of minimum shear.
Thus, for beams, the joints should be
located at the centre of span or within the
middle - third.
In case of one way slabs – at middle
span
In case of two way slabs – The joints
should be within the middle third on either
span
EXPANTION AND CONTRACTION
JOINTS
Walls of warehouse – 20 to 25 mtrs
interval
Roofs Slab – 20 to 30 mtrs interval.
