to make a monolithic structure between old and new concrete portion in member it is proposed special condition by providing L groove or joining chemical/materials is called construction joint.
Due to thermal condition concrete may shrink/expand, to avoid failure of structure due to thermal condition it is proposed to provide gap between structure , this gap called expansion or thermal expansion joint.
