construction concrete joint
HB50
prepared joint made during the placing of concrete or a pavement material to divide the work into parts for convenience of construction or to provide for unavoidable interruptions to placing, unlike an expansion joint
Construction joints are made to provide structural continuity so that the load-carrying capacity and serviceability of a structure will be unimpaired by their inclusion, e.g. a joint between precast segments, or between previously laid concrete that has hardened following a break in concreting operations and fresh concrete.
