So in recent months I’ve been getting calls for new driveways, and patios.. the main reason for the homeowners calls is because there concrete is cracked down the middle or anywhere through the concrete and it’s sinking and or lifting creating tripping hazards, water issues, and undermining of concrete creating more cracks…. Now everyone knows that concrete is going to crack no matter what, but there is a simple solution to this, and it’s called controll joints,,, your control joints should never exceed a 10’x10’ area.. so if your driveway is 20’wide and 40’long, there should be 1 control joint cut straight down the middle cutting the 20’ section into 2-10’sections.. the 40’ section should be cut at every 10’ ,.. that’s 3 control joints spanning the length of the new concrete… when you look at it it should look like 8 10×10 squares… same rule of thumb if your tooling the joints in with a joiner, or if your saw cutting…
