Thank you for your reply.Let me try to clarify: by concrete joint I mean the union of two solidified parts of concrete, having been concreted with an interval of, say, 24 hours. The block is 15 cm wide, 15 cm high and 50 cm long and the load is applied statically in the mid-span (top of the "beam").
