Conventional saw cuts should generally be made to one-fourth the depth of the slab (ACI 327R-14), although early-entry saws can cut to a lesser depth and still be effective (ACI 224.4R-13). In terms of preventing damage where cuts cross each other, joint protectors can help maintain the integrity of the slab at intersections.

Acceptable concrete cracking. Q. What is considered as acceptable concrete cracking in cast-in-place foundation walls and slabs per ACI documents?

A. A contraction joint is formed, sawed, or tooled groove in a concrete structure to create a weakened plane to regulate the location of cracking resulting from
