A diagram of the closed joint

This jointing technique, known as giunto unito or "closed joints", is used in layouts using new Masegno or Salizzone because these stones have more uniform and exact dimensions. The joints in this technique are 5-10 mm and are filled in with dirt thus creating a more historic appearance which better suites Venice's aged appearance. This jointing technique is used mainly in the Running and Herring Bone pavement styles.[1]
