Core TradesCâu 73 / 700
Control joints (contraction joints) are tooled or saw-cut into a slab primarily to:
a.Create a weakened plane so shrinkage cracking occurs at a planned, straight location
b.Increase the slab's load-carrying capacity
c.Serve as a bond break between two pours
d.Provide a channel for drainage
Giải thích
Control joints create a deliberately weakened plane, usually cut about one-quarter of the slab depth, so drying shrinkage cracks form at the joint rather than randomly. They do not add load capacity, act as isolation/bond breaks, or serve as drainage channels.
