Joints in Concrete Walls

The concrete block retaining wall could be installed with any of the following joints, depending on your choice.



👉Construction Joints
Between two successive poured walls, there are both horizontal and vertical joints used to increase the sliding resistance ability of each joint. If you don't use keys formed in the base, you should clean and roughen the surface of the first pour and the next one before each next poured concrete.
👉Contraction Joints
Contraction joints include vertical joints or grooves 0.25 inches wide and not exceeding 30 feet. These joints allow concrete blocks to shrink without any harm.
👉Expansion Joints
The vertical expansion joints are combined with a concrete retaining wall to calculate whether the temperature changes will make any expansions. These joints should be placed at intervals of at least 90 feet.
