What is Joints in Water Retaining Structures about?

This document discusses the design and types of joints used in water retaining structures. There are 5 main types of joints: 1) expansion joints which allow structures to expand apart, 2) complete and partial contraction joints which allow contraction without or with some continuity of reinforcement, 3) sliding joints which allow sliding movement, 4) construction joints where concrete is placed separately but reinforcement is continuous, and 5) waterstops which provide a water-tight seal across joints.
