What should I use between my new patio slab and my existing footing? I plan on drilling and epoxying rebar to attach the two, but was wondering what I need for expansion. Or, do I even need to use anything? I also plan on using Sikaflex joint filler on the expansion joints and where the new slab and footing meet.

Thanks,
Mike
