Dear All,


As per clause 27.2 of IS-456:2000, the structures exceeding 45 mtr in length are to be designed with one or more expansion joints.   


Considering that below ground the effect of temperature is less, one should provide joints in basement portions at a spacing of about 90.0 mtr.  When joints are provided more than 90 mtr spacing, cracks do appear after passage of time due to creep effect even if we provide shrinkage strips during casting.


Whenever building dimensions exceeds 45 mtr one should do temperature and shrinkage analysis by adding one more primary load case.  The load factors to be considered while combining temperature, shrinkage load with DL and LL are as under as per SP:24:983



  1.   1.4  (D.L.+ T)   2.    0.75 (1.4 DL + 1.4 T + 1.7 LL)


Note:    Earthquake separation joints between adjacent units shall be catered for as per clause 7.11.3 of IS 1893 (Part-I) 2002.
