Answer / shaikh sayeed
Construction Joints should be minimum in execution. and the
location is to be decided carefully. Constr. Joint should be
at right angle to the span of member. e.g horizontal in
vertical columns and vertical in horizontal beams. Flexural

prepration of surface before making a joint, location of
joint. ref: Design and contruction of joints in concrete
