Hi,
Im replacing a couple of sections of my concrete pool deck after making repairs to the skimmer and inlets. I have created a diagram to try to help explain.
1- do I need to place expansion joints where the dashed lines are where the new concrete will be poured?
2- where I have noted "previous crack location" - at the radius corner I had a chipping cracked area of concrete which I would like to do all I can to avoid happening again. I have shown the two places of the previous control joints. Is there a better way to place the control joints or another method to create a strong piece of concrete in the radius corner?
As this is very specific to concrete and not particularly pools im not sure if anyone will have any suggestions. If you know another forum that might serve me better in the instance please let me know.
Thanks for your time
