I seem to remember there's no difference. Except on this project I have an 
irregular expansion line and the USACoE plans only indicate expansion joints on 
the mains, allowing branch lines to cross it without a problem.

This project doesn't require seismic bracing. So any thoughts if I should bring 
it up about the branch lines crossing it? They are 2" in size to 1".
