FDOT Standard Plans Index 350-001: Concrete Pavement Joints

Short answer

Index 350-001 is the FDOT Standard Plan for Concrete Pavement Joints, part of Series 350 (Bituminous Treatments, Surface Courses and Concrete Pavement). The sections below are extracted from FDOT's Standard Plans Instructions (SPI) for this index — design criteria, assumptions and limitations, and what your plans must show.

Design Criteria

Design Criteria Rigid Pavement Design Manual ( RPDM )

Design Assumptions and Limitations

Design Assumptions and Limitations The drawings shown in this Index include details of the different types of joints. The Index also includes typical joint layout patterns; however, the actual layout for joints is project-specific and must be detailed in the plans. It should be noted that bridge approach slabs that have an Asphalt Base must use 4 expansion joints.

Bridge approach slabs with a Special Select Soil Base must use the expansion joints in Index 370-001 . Concrete pavement joints next to concrete curb must meet the requirements in Index 520-001 and Section 520 of the specifications.
