The difference between contraction joint and construction joint?
A construction joint in concrete jobs is a joint where a fully set and hard concrete joins a fresh concrete to make a joint. Normally, cracks would occur at this joint because concrete was not cast monolithic. A contraction joint is joint between two concrete edges so formed which allows minute movement between the two edges caused by heat or some other external forces. Usually, contraction joints are also referred to as expansion joints.

What is the purpose of compression reinforcement in beams?
Steel is stronger than concrete. By adding some reinforcement in the compression zone of a beam, it's bending strength can be increased without increasing the size of the beam. The steel increases the compression strength, while the concrete prevents the slender steel bars from buckling.
What mortar joint finish is specified for concrete masonry units?
