How wide a gap should be allowed between the 50-ft-long


Question: How wide a gap should be allowed between the 50-ft-long paving slabs of concrete in a street so that the slabs will touch each other at a temperature of 90°F? The pavement is laid at a temperature of 65°F What would be the compressive stress in the slabs if the temperature rose to 110°F? (E for concrete is 3 000 000 psi.)
