Home Services Concrete Crack Repair and Joint Sealant Control Joints and Expansion Joints Control And Expansion Joint Repair In Central Ohio and Cleveland What Are Control And Expansion Joints? Two rarely talked about, but essential concrete sections are control and expansion joints. The first, called control joints, are sections cut into a slab shortly after pouring and are designed to control cracking as the slab cures. Meanwhile, expansion joints are a gap between two concrete slabs filled with a compressible material like fiberboard. This material allows the slabs to move freely from each other without causing structural damage. What Causes Damage In These Joints? By design, control joints allow for controlled cracking as concrete slabs freeze and thaw during weather cycles. This process also affects expansion joints, which causes the material in the expansion joint (such as fiberboard) to degrade.
