Best Answer

With most concrete, the maximum possible joint-free surface area is 25 m2. Since concrete expands and contracts with moisture and temperature changes, crack control joints are required to prevent unsightly random surface cracking. These control joints help ensure that when the concrete cracks, it will crack in a predictable manner in a precise location.
