I know this is off topic a little but the electrical trade has to provide expansion fittings on conduit so it's sort of relevant. What drawings do you find expansion/ deflection joints in a building. Archs or structural? Thanks.

Structural. They are the consultants who will determine how/where/why expansion joints are to be built.

The architectural set is concerned with floor plans, building appearance, and functionality for the end user. The structural set determines how to build it and have its members not rupture or permanently deform.

Thought so, thanks.
